HOLY SHIT, was these nerfs really necessary?!? especially the dash intial speed nerf, also j.2C is not viable tool to nerf it even more. Makoto is dead but JP still rock with her, with there godlike fundementals.

i only do it in two siuation: 1-Lambda charging spike chaser 2-Rachel shooting a lobelia and i always try to get 6321466D which only comes out 20% of the times only o3o

You can still have 2366AD in your combo, but you won't see it a lot as its not the optimum choice. The Shooting Star > 446A/5CC is dead, because Shooting Star no longer wallbounces in corner. The DP CH Combo and dive whiff combos is no more too. you can't do BBS > PF anymore? not sure, but if that's the case then BBS is now a forgotten move and PF will only be used as a Combo finisher. Anyone knows any frame changes? like is Mars Chopper is no longer safe on block?

For Makoto: 1-214214D~A+B if they rolled PF will come out, if not then you will Kara cancel the 5D into Barrier. 3-2A~5B~46: if your opponent used a reversal then the 2A will whiff and you will pop up your parry, on block you gatling to 5B and get a blockstring. you can replace the 46 with 3C to beat jin's C DP.

ofc you. you are the mindblowing one in here.

wow, this is mindblowing epic. i want one with Makoto story mode portrait in the NOL coat with her stage as the background plsplsplsplspls.

Cool, i'll give you what i have once am free.

One last question, are the CS2 combos viable, stylish, situational, or tutorial explanation?

so you are making a video for CS2 or theory for CSEX?... am counfused here X_x anyway here is a new match for Makoto starts @ 19:17 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCg0ct0Tc1o only managed to get one hit in the whole match and it was: j.C CH > 2A 5B 5C 6C > 214ACD 2014 Damage. this match was pathetic xD

Anyone know if 214ACCCCC now works like lambda's 5CCCCCCCC? (like if you hold the C all the hits will come out) tell me what you are working on and i might help you.

it seems impossible to put lightning arrow in any combo. at first glance i thought that 5B 6A 2D > 214BD will work but i was wrong as the 2D launch lower now, plus the new AV path seems to be a trouble for lightning arrow land in a combo.

but they reduced the Parry proration and the new Makoto combos midscreen will mean the Parry is not as harmful as it used to be. Parry is really a funny creative move, its like an offensive reversal more like Makoto style you can put it in your mix up, pressure, OS's. With the Parry death Makoto well... you know what i want to say Dx

Got a lot of stuff from this video. -Mars Chopper no longer forces crouching -Combo: 2C > 214AA > 5CC 2D(1) > 5B 6A > Aerial -Combo: 2C > 214B > j.C j.B > jc jD > ??? -Combo: 6BC > 5D > 214ACB > 5B 6A 2D > j.D > 662C > 236A~D > 5B 6A > j.C j.B > j.C j.B > DP (The j.D after 2D seems really strict) Some of Makoto changes were not necessary like the remove of 5B CH > 662/5A and the whole nerf of Parry is too much as its now DEAD move from being a viable move. Agree, Makoto is still solid and strong, no need to worry about ending up as CS1 Rachel. If you are good player then i can assure that your Makoto will rock as she doesn't need any special practice or learning, she only need a very good footsies and to know how to mix up and pressure etc.. the things that all characters share.

I hope we still have a good Tager&Hakumen Combo in CSEX or this Match up will be a huuuge problem for us. CS2 Makoto is boring? dude i will be honest, she is moderate in funfactor and in my hand i see her as the funniest character in BB. Dive whiff 2362366D, 5B CH > confirms, LVL1 2D juggle combos, the insane amount of uses for parry (Not broken), how i can do a lot of combos and all of em give me near the result of Opt combo, the gold burst combos, how she can do some stuff in midscreen and i have more reasons. in CS1 Makoto is the best in my opinion, she had her signature in the game with her epic D combos, epic 3C, fast 236A, SS gatling to 2/5D, viable to use BBS out of combos. when you play CS1 you feel that you really play Makoto, in CS2 she lost some varity and in CSEX she just lost everything even her combos are ugly now. sigh i don't think QQ'ing will fix up anything or help me, i will just suck it up and play with my boring and hated waifu <3 no need to correct me, this is just my feelings about the new Makoto ignore it. oh and lol @ the ppl who say: she is now hard and take skill to win her matches and her combos now are harder and stylish because its not.

CSEX Makoto is +balanced but -boring... its a win lose situation. ASW better do some magic for her in BB3 as am not impressed by playing only 2A Character.

Both Goro and Tsujikawa left us, and i cant see Isa anywhere ~.~ I checked BBCS2.Net for Top Makoto players PSR's. Riyota is in the first place with 733 PSR and Yasuda in second place with 699 PSR (I might be wrong) CSEX Makoto is lame, i cant blame players for leaving her.

as far as i know Tsujikawa is back to Taokaka in CSEX.

The matches are on the 1&3 Part. -in Midscreen 2C > 2D > 214ACB > 2A 5C 2D Lvl 1 > 5B 6A > Aerial -Corona have now a very short unteachable time -Mars Chopper OH hit > RC > 5B 5CC 6BC > StarGazer > 2A 5B 6A > Aerial ~.~ Ragna j.C j.C j.C j.C hit? Meterless 4500 Damage midscreen + 50 Heat

I came to Blazblue (my first fighting game) after i saw Makoto, she is the reason why am here. I started it with Makoto and will finish it with Makoto <3

The new Makoto is ugly and not (Makoto) anymore... but she is still strong.

until now the midscreen options seems really limited.

Yes!, caught a roll with PF OS, and got 7K from j.2C... it was amazing.

Ouch, Mars Chopper > RC > 5CC can lead to insane damage. it looks like you can't combo after Corona Upper anymore not even on CH and you can't do dive whiff's too.

Pretty much my feelings. i wont go into details but from reading the changes i hate how there is only small possibilities with her and there all EASY to do and even more straightforward... i guess Makoto design need a remake more than just some values tweaks.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MIjFkOLYcw&feature=channel_video_title IB > 2362366D ftw. a lot of these combos seems unstable? (dependes on the opponent hitbox) i had a fight with jourdal over this... what a ****, from now on i'll use Nico
