Anyone here on the Rachel aka The Dark Queen of the Night forum a Megumi Nakajima fan? If so, check out this cool anime song/opening. Been listening to it the whole day and been raping the replay button on Youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KCuHZwP1DB0&list=FLIWN-jPcLnJskq2Lsv91DXQ&index=1&feature=plpp_video Come on full version please run on by quickly:keke:

Will this Rachel combo work in Extend? I watched that her 6B causes wall bounce on counterhit and I'm wondering if I can use Slipheed to create unique combo opportunities. Here's what I have in mind: 6B (counter hit/wall bounce), 1D, 214A, 5B, 236B, 5B, jc, J.5C, 2D, J.2C, 236B, J.5C, J.5C, 214C, 6321456, 214A, 236A, dash, 3C, 236A, 5CC, 214B. Will this work?

I watched Extend matches of Rachel and Tager, and all I can say is it still looks one-sided on Tager part. I still get dominated in this match-up and it's really upsetting and annoying.

Sounds interesting. I'm go if I can get a drive from my cousin that day.

I'm not good at understanding frame data, so 236D is not punishable, right?

Question! About Tsubaki's 236 A,B,C, and D, is it punishable on block? Everytime that moves hits and I block it, I always get countered or mixed-up because from what I can tell the move goes on the opposite side, I think. It is about the spacing or am I not reacting in time?

Thanks for the vids Sakaku-san. The Tager match-up still looks extremely difficult, at least to me though

Speaking of Inu x Boku is anyone besides me watching Highschool DxD? I'm seriously liking that show, oppai ftw!!

I know that this is late, but hello my name is Deikan. I came from a Street Fighter background and I've played Guilt Gear for a while, but not I'm putting my focus on Blazblue. I've picked up Blazblue about 2-3 months ago and I'm totally loving it. I've never played Calamity Trigger, but I truly love the Blazblue series and I want to become a pro at it and help the scene get better, anyway I can. I love the world of anime and Blazblue has the anime feel that I cherish and base my life on. I picked up Rachel because I'm a huge fan of Vampires, and her style of play is unique and interesting. I like technical characters and Rachel's abilities and moves truly made me interested in maining her. I'm still have much too learn and I'm still a novice, but I'm truly serious about becoming pro at this game and putting the extended effort into it. Dustloop: Deikan My PSN is: Yukito-chan. I'm on around 8pm-2am practicing combos, accepting challenges from players, and learning matchups.

After watching the EX Combo Video about Rachel that Sakaku uploaded, the J.2C pumpkin and George XIII oki is going to make pressure and mix-up opportunities more threatening. Her damage output and combo enders are still pretty great and since I'm sure alot of Rachel players are good at managing meter, she's still a legitimate threat, imo.

It's funny and interesting. Definitely worth watching in my opinion, Sakaku-san.

I'm with you dude, I was mad salty when I saw that Blazblue is not on the lineup. Now I have a reason not to watch Blazblue on the stream or attend the event this year. It's a shame because me and a couple of friends were planning on going to Evo this year to attend and participate in the BB tournament.

Now I have no reason to watch or go to Evo 2012. I really hope they change their minds and allow a full tournament like last year and the year before. It just makes it seem that this game doesn't get no love from the fighting game community. I'm really sad

I see thanks. I'm still now good/use to instant blocking, but I''m seriously working on it.

What does IB mean again?

Topic: Dead Spike Corner Pressure. I'm in a bit of a bind here. I faced a Ragna player of a high caliber and I'm having trouble keeping him out and also getting out of the corner. When I'm in the corner, he uses his usual bnb added with a Dead Spike which is 5d I believe (still not used to arcade terminology). The Dead Spike keeps breaking my primers and when I tried to attack after it, he manages to get a free counter hit and I keep getting horrendously beat down in the corner. Is there a way out. I kept using counter assaults but I always get baited into doing it and I nearly got double perfected. I really need help here .

Merry Christmas fellow Rachel mainers. Let's keep the Dark Queen of the Night godlike in 2012.

Sorry, my bad, I meant block-strings.

I'm having Hakumen problems. Everytime I do my hit strings they always manage to a get a counter on me, I do my pumpkins mix-ups and I still get countered. I play rush down to patient and I'm still getting beaten, what can I do?

I saw more vids of EX Rachel and she's still amazing and solid. It seems now that you can't extend combos as much and you kind of have to stick to simple yet short damaging combos. It looks like we're going to have to end simple bnbs or use j.2C(the anvil) a lot so we can keep the wind, pumpkin, and frog pressure. I could care less about her damage decreasing slightly as long as they keep her pressure, zoning, and rush down intact.

Question "raises hand": I fought a Tager who somehow manage to pull an 360 command grab and a 720 DD through my perfect timed combo stings. Is Rachel's 5b Silpheed to 5c to 3c not a true combo string or is that Tager's spd has invincibility of some kind?

I tried zoning him with TBs, pumpkins and ISs but his moves have projectile armor. I zone him carefully and I still get magnetize and put under his spd pressure. Playing lame isn't doing it for me, I keep getting creamed and making myself look free each time I play him, it's like fighting Zangief with a projectile.

I keep getting blown up by that red skinned loser! Is there a way to escape is pressure? Everytime I try to get away I get pulled in and slammed silly and the cycle never ends. I really need help, I hate losing to Tager!

I'm having problem getting in on him when he's using his coils. Should I use my rods on the field or should I have to block patiently until I find an opening? What should I do?

I hate how they nerfed Rachel's damage, but despite that she's still looking solid and I'm be sticking with her until the end. It's good to see that players like Rin and Matsu give a Rachel main like myself hope that she's still amazing.
