Pretty much, if you do get in. Pour on that damage because you probably won't get a second chance to do so.

That's the thing, even if Rachel blocked the counter you got a star for it. It was something at least, now we don't even get that. I feel zoners are gonna be a hell of a bigger problem if we can't reliably slice our way through.

You make it seem like I said it was a bad thing.

Great, CP2 is gonna turn us all into the Mac army.

Since we're on the subject, my opinions of CP2 Hakumen have changed slightly over the months we've had him. I used to think he was kind of boring, but further and while I still don't find him to particularly that interesting, he still looks fun to play. His neutral game seems somewhat improved, buffs to 4C, 6A, and J.2A can make some reads easier than others. Other than that, I don't have much to say here, his neutral is more or less the same from 1.0. Although the Kishuu nerf is gonna be hard to swallow as it means a harder time getting in on characters like Jin or Nu. His offense definitely looks stronger as he can get a sizable chunk of damage off of more random confirms due to the increased proration on moves like Zantetsu, Hotaru, and Tsubaki. His pressure is still pretty meager unfortunately. Fortunately, his combo routes haven't really changed all that much, so less to learn for us I guess. His defense had the biggest nerfs, for some reason they decided he shouldn't get anything for catching projectiles. You can't even combo off them anymore and since the special cancel doesn't lock the opponent, they're free to either DP or block whatever you're going to do to them. It's probably because they want us to cut projectiles more, but eeeehhh. His counters are still good, but the only thing you really get is knockdown for a successful catch and 1 star, which is fine I guess. Overall he's still viable, but not as explosive as before. Most of your wins are probably going to come capitalizing on as many confirms as possible and being able to read your opponent well enough. What do you guys think?

I tend to get 8 stars more often than not, but on;y because I'm really conservative.

It's time to get dumb then and become Poropiccho.

Never have these words haunted me so hard a year later on netplay.

Two main reasons 1) Netplay will never allow me to react to overheads, otherwise I could block him for days. 2) I have no idea how his command dashes work, so I couldn't get a good read on him after knockdown. You're right, he is basic and if it weren't the above two reasons I wouldn't have had a hell of an easier time. After a while I just mashed 3C on the overhead and just hopped literally on top him on wake up. Kune is one of the characters I rarely fight, so my knowledge on what to do against him fairly limited so bear with me.

Admittedly, I kind of autopiloted due to frustration... Sometimes you just get angry and the good tech comes out lol.....ugh, I have to stop that.

This is how bad habits start :V

You got the weirdest PSN name. GGs everyone, Everyone fighting is exhausting. Back to back to back action. I'll do that rarely. I still hate Arakune, I had to do use the most netplay of tactics to beat hellgraver and I am not proud of that.

I'd rather that than waiting for an entire line lol.

So why doesn't anyone just use the "Everyone Fights" option more? Is there a downside to it I don't know about?

Well it's more like four atm. If it gets too big, might just make it everyone fights someone lol.

At least you're not those types who stay up to like 4am playing lol. Anywho, I opened an 8 man room. Anyone who wants in just ask for dat invite.

I gotta go to my sister's party, but I'm pretty wiped so I'll be on tonight definitely.

I only get mad when lag prevents me from doing anything substantial, other than that I'm pretty tolerant.

It's the end of the work week, which means who wants to join the room of chaos tonight? It'll be the rare chance to fight a Hakumen that isn't mac :V

GearPhone.

....So Mai can use projection?

Bryce Papenbrook or Josh Greil for Hyde and Cherami Leigh for Linne.

Alright, I think I've put this project off long enough; expect any update this weekend.

It's rather funny actually.
