Recent results confirm the tier placing it seems. Only issue seems to be Isaac but I can't figure out what the note is. EDIT: The note is that Isaac with meter can start the infinite which is when he becomes a legitimate threat. Probably elevates him slightly up the tierlist.

Up to date, High Level Blade Arcus Play: http://www.twitch.tv/segaofjapan/v/31802931 (tournament is done now) Isaac infinites are usable in real matches it seems. This Isaac killed his opponent two rounds in a row with a confirm into an infinite: http://www.twitch.tv/segaofjapan/v/31802931?t=01h05m46s http://www.twitch.tv/segaofjapan/v/31802931?t=01h06m35s Also it seems like JP players don't use their assist meter for anything that isn't burst. I mean they don't really need the assist for neutral considering most of them play Rage or Sakuya as one of their characters. So it's better to save it for combo breaker. I did see someone use their level 4 assist once in a combo and it worked out (other times it was used but they dropped the combo). The only person who I saw use their level 2 assist regularly was the godlike Rick player. He'd get really good conversions from it and it was super hype. The only other times I saw assists being used was for Rage's instant j.A overhead > assist to confirm. So if your character is below the top tier threshold then you probably will need to use neutral assists often. The top tier (Urayukihime/Rage/Sakuya/Fenrir/Roselinde) had the most representation (obviously). It's no doubt that these characters are in their own league and trump all the other characters. There was also some representation from Ryuuga, Rouna, Pairon, Xiao-mei, Melty, Isaac (shout outs to infinites), and the previously mentioned godlike Rick player (he got at least top 8). Most of the time these characters were used as assists though (And by assists, I just mean as bursts). As an example of how much work the low tier have to put in. There was one Melty player playing against Rage. He was actually WINNING for the first two rounds, but then the Rage player decided to stop approaching and just zoned Melty out with normals. The Melty couldn't get in and had to take riskier options as time ran out and ended up dying. There was another instance where a Xiao-mei player was doing about the same thing. Every time she tried to get in she would just get out-poked or anti-aired. JP players don't make much use of the AP Meter mechanics. I rarely saw anyone use Reflector and when they did they would usually miss and die. The risk wasn't worth the reward as those players ate a lot of damage into a bad mixup scenario. Also no one DEFINITELY ever uses 6BC to anti-air or as a focus attack (I only saw it used one time ever and it failed). You only see it in combos. JP players do use 4AC a lot to make moves safe (Ex. Urayukihime often does 236B > 4AC if she accidentally did it too close). Some specific character stuff I noticed: Fenrir had some disgusting resets in the corner where you use 3C to go into the corner as a mid combo reset. Rick gets strong once he builds enough heat. The pressure is pretty scary. Personal Thoughts: I still really don't like this game at all. The poor balance and bad system mechanics/gameplay design are an issue. But I will say that watching this tournament was enjoyable. This game has a Marvel 2 syndrome going. When it's just the top tiers playing then it can be very exciting. When the low tier get involved the horrible 7-3 matchups are apparent and watching the players struggle to get in is every bit as ugly for the viewer as it is for the player having to play the matchup. I can taste the despair on the screen when I see Xiao-mei get zoned out by Rage and it makes me furious. I feel when characters of the same strength are involved, there's clearly more neutral game and I can see a good fighting game. Roselinde vs Urayukihime was one of my favourite matches because of the intresting spacing game they had going. Urayukihime had better pokes but Roselinde could guard point so there was a lot of tension in those matches. Out of all the mid-low representatives only Isaac and Rick managed to get anything done. Isaac because he has the infinite and the Rick player was just absolutely amazing (Edit: Turns out hes Tahichi, JP Margaret God). He was patient and knew his character in and out. Watching him play gave me some small hope for the mid-low tier. Although at the same time I can see that my own character (Misty) definitely has no chance of surviving against any of the top tier. She simply wouldn't be able to handle the tools that the top tier possess. I know this first-hand, I've faced most of those matchups already. Then the despair settles in again for me. Again if you want to enjoy this game, pick a top tier. Or find a scene that plays around the mid tier. Unless you can become (or care) to be as godlike as that Rick player, hope is slim.

Rick/Rouna/Urayukihime/Sonia/Misty Combos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GurGXmW6EH4 Fenrir/Pairon/Ryuuga/Altina Combos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAvd3-fsdA8 Rouna/Dylan/Roselinde/Sakuya Combos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E997heIBYfU Ryuuga/Sonia/Misty/Xiao-Mei/Melty/Isaac/Rage Combos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dt442F9c3bQ Sonia/Rouna/Ryuuga/Xiao-mei/Sakuya/Altina/Roselinde/Pairon/Fenrir/Melty/Misty https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SNL6Jonwjk (Multi character)

Also here are all the Fenrir Infinites: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dOM7zbE7Z5Y https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JlO1_gsmD78 They work on both standing and crouching characters, midscreen and corner. Crouching infinites only work on Altina and Fenrir. Standing infinites work on most characters (I think Rage and a few others are the only ones it doesn't work on). Rouna Infinite:

Reflector (BC): Is essentially a push-parry. It's really strong against projectiles since you can absorb a single projectile and instantly recover and keep dashing in. (This is bad news for Misty btw). They're pretty active so it's pretty easy to use and you don't have to worry about high/low parries (but still carries the risk of any kind of shield/parry mechanic, IE loses to empty throws). Against physical hits it will push the opponent back a set distance and grant the user a small amount of frame advantage. Your opponent is also invincible until they land on the ground after you push-parry them. The effects sound good, and they are good against a lot of characters (not the top tier though!). Trying to parry against some characters is rather futile and actually shielding the wrong thing can make your opponent more safe then if you just blocked it. Shielding Urayukihime's slashes makes her safe even though you would have been able to punish had you blocked. Also push-parry doesn't guarantee that you get a turn despite the frame advantage. Urayukihime can still keep doing slashes from the distance of a successful parry, Sakuya can still keep thrusting and Rage can keep doing Rage things. 6BC: Can be used as a ghetto focus attack. While your holding 6BC (after about 20% charge) you gain guard point which can absorb an infinite number of hits until you release the attack. You can use this to guard-point jump-ins but actually landing the 6BC attack portion is a litte suspect depending on how much range it had to begin with. Misty's 6BC has short horizontal range and barely any vertical so it's hard to land as an anti-air (I've certainly gotten it off though!). Also don't try to use 6BC against multi-hitting jump ins (ex. Isaac). The guard point runs out the moment you release 6BC and it doesn't carry over as you do the 6BC attack. So you'll end up hitting a FAT COUNTER HIT if you try to use it between multi-hitting attacks. I'd also like to point out that I'm the only person that actually makes regular use of the AP meter mechanics (outside of combos) in my local scene. They're not really all that good IMO. I can get successful push-parries pretty often but it still doesn't guarantee a safe orb set or a chance to run in and get a poke. All it really does is just reset neutral (and Misy's neutral isn't that great so that doesn't mean much for me).

When playing it's really hard to consistently have assist stocks. You only get assist stock by being defensive (which arguably you're forced to do a lot as Misty since thats how a lot of matchups pan out, so you WILL build assist more often than your opponent I guess). I rarely ever get to use a Level 3 assist for neutral and rather opt to save it as a burst instead (and I'm forced to since the people I play against can actually do the Fenrir infinite on Misty). I try to use Urayukihime as my assist since her Level 2 is massive and covers Misty's meh footsie range. The knockdown also gives two orb sets, and on block you get one orb set. I really think that if you want to play Misty seriously you have to play some (high tier) point character first as a battery to build meter so that you can actually switch her in with some resources next round. The only way she can safely set orbs and play her game is if she has a large pool of meter/assist to burn. Playing her with no resources as the first round is TERRIBLE. Your opponent will usually have better tools at the start of the round and can oppress you until you're able to get a good poke in or build meter land an anti-air/reversal 214214C. Resource-less Misty is definitely close to the D-E Tier. With resources she can just barely touch upon B-C Tier at her absolute best. Slightly unrelated but please note that after any of her specials (214A/B/C) you can't set any more orbs after she auto-sets. Any additional orb set is COMPLETELY UNSAFE. Even though I thought I was pretty well spaced after a 214C > 236A, your opponent can just run up and hit you.

I've been labbing Misty extensively, https://docs.google.com/document/d/1SxNNpv1k_z2Gf0mZjgVlsa38QpavGwynaRMNV_8r1d4/edit I'm more or less aware of the tech that she has. She does have good things, but it's still not enough to compete with the top tier (or even the other characters). -Orb Set > AC IS GOOD, but you're spending a bar just to have the right to get in. It's definitely good and you should do it, but the fact that you have to really, really sucks when other characters can just run in and press buttons to start neutral. -Superjumping and setting orbs is good, in fact you can get all three orbs out in one super jump arc if you TK the first input. BUT, the problem is that you're cornering yourself if you jump backwards. Losing space against characters like Sakuya is definitely a death sentence. Also characters can still move in on you while you're doing this, so you might not even get to use all the orbs you set down. There's definitely some matchups where this a terrible idea. If you play against Isaac you're going to get bodied by lightning before you even set an orb down. -Another decent approach you can do is super jump at someone 236B and then j.A to hit the orb as you're falling. You're likely to get anti-air'd though but if you get the orb to shoot you might get a trade. -When it comes to zoning, Misty definitely can't keep it up for very long. Her best chance to start zoning is off of 214214C hit. The orbs take too long to replenish once you're forced to use the ones on screen. Once you use all your orbs you're back to square one. So it definitely takes a HUGE amount of effort and thinking to maintain the orbs you need on screen while keeping your opponent out. It's also really disheartening when you try to call something out with the orbs with 22b and you end up losing every orb (and punished!) because you guessed wrong. Honestly it's usually just easier to shoot all the orbs and then try to get in and not have to worry about the zoning game. BTW your opponent can just BC shield your orbs and completely ignore them while moving forward! -------- Also let me clarify her crossup setups. Misty can definitely get crossup setups with orbs but they tend to vary on spacing/tech timing/and timing. Your best setup for a cross up is usually off of a 214A. This lets you get cross ups regardless of tech timing (assuming that you always use 4C > 214A so that they fall close to you, anything beyond that is hard to adjust). 214B lets you get cross ups as well but they vary on tech timing. Keep in mind that you're using the orb that Misty auto-sets after 214X to get a cross up. 214A: 1. jump over j.A >Late tech (real cross up) >Quick tech (fake cross up) 2. super jump over j.A >Late or Quick tech (real cross up) (harder to combo off of because you land farther, also loses if they block standing because they will block j.A and you end up on same side) >You walk back and then super jump j.A (fake cross up) 214B: 1. jump over j.A >Late or Quick tech (fake cross up) 2. super jump over j.A >Quick tech (Fake cross up) >Late tech (Real cross up)

Uploaded a short Taiga combo video with her new Ignition stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwwUETYZ040 2[C] loops are great. Main Combo Theory Notes: -Against crouching characters you can combo directly into 5[C] allowing Taiga to self launch with 214C -236[AB] is hella fast now and you can combo from most assist calls. It's good if you want to end in just one bar. The attack does 945 damage at max damage scaling. -In Trump you can loop 2[C] easily in the corner just by doing 2[C] > 5A whiff > 2[C] x n -Off airborne j.214AB you can link 2A/5A > 5B when you land and continue the combo anywhere. -Off of j.214AB you can also cancel directly into her Level 2 supers when you land. -Last hit of 236AB will always consistently combo into 426BC.

I hope you get bodied by Rage.

Well winning vorpal is always important and you should be trying for it whenever you can anyway. But it looks like Chaos vorpal trait does a really good job of keeping Wald out (https://youtu.be/CdwwLEHM-fU?t=978) 214A > 214B for zoning looks great. Its still kinda hard to tell how much better the matchup becomes when Chaos has vorpal since the Chaos player didnt gain vorpal very often against the Wald. When he did, he would just do the standard things like 6C > CS which we know is already good. It should be a little more clear when we get to see more matches. But my opinion right now is that it will be really good in the long run.

Bedman OS Stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m8654vKGohs&feature=youtu.be

Okay, I think I'm about ready to join in actual Bed discussion now that I'm caught up on this character (kinda). Been compiling everything I've read so far from this thread into my google document (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JfrLhHWjPJdmuy0r-aFKeOEm9_7fEusgt2aKqRDc8U0/edit?usp=sharing). Anyway, the hot topic for this week is proximity OS. Anyone got any ideas as to how this can be useful for Bedman? Only thing I can think of is walking around OSing Helios super during footsies. But thats obviously a little too silly.

And uh... some of my tournament matches: COMBO BREAKER TOP 8: Vs Waldstein (Argenrost) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GTjWvuGL_g General: -Jumping back against Waldstein not too effective. His reach lets him swat you easily. -Trying to challenge Waldstein at round start does not work well. -I try to end in 214[A] after 2C > 236A starter too much even though I know that doesn't work. 0:31 - Too close to reversal 236A during the clap pressure safely. Better option would have been to just 5B after shield or just block until out of range. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=66: I think superflash ate my assault input. I ended up just getting 5[D]. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=82 Bad Azhi spacing + 236A use. 623A/B or 236B would have been the better choice for most of these. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=105 22A/B really good for catching Waldstein things. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=126 So even though Wald 66B is 10 frame startup and Chaos 236C is 9 frames. It seems since Azhi has to travel a bit before hitting, 236C can lose. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=152 Beware of Waldstein hurtboxes ._. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=168 Reminder that Azhi strings have gaps in them that your opponent can reversal through. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=384 I attempt to do TK > 236C > j.A whiff > Assault mixup but 236C just barely whiffed ._. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=436 POST MORTEM AZHI GLITCH. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=466 Another bad attempt to escape clap pressure. https://youtu.be/6GTjWvuGL_g?t=554 Assault j.A > CS the best Vs Hilda (Arturo) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ew_TWxl_Rw General: -Missed a few good opportunities. -Could have tried to take a few risks with rolls and jump outs. -Couple of drops -Good blocking overall but a few bad shields kill me.

New Shimazaki footage! Thanks to Mota for finding. Leisureland Akihabara 2vs2 2015/5/3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wDAWOPzCT1k Vs Seth (4:00) -Plays pretty aggressive -Shimazaki attempts to use 22A/B sets to beat Seth orbs at times but Azhi will get hit if hes in front of Chaos. Instead, Shimazaki should set 22A and then walk in front of Azhi so that Chaos will block the orb hits for Azhi and Seth will get hit if he attempts to high/low. -Uses 236C to swat Seth out of the air just before he lands. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LOxQQqc35YY Vs Gordeau (12:50) -13:19 Demo of Shimazaki's new setup: 2A > 5BB > 236B > 5CC > 236A > 22A > BC Roll (cross up) Notes: -You are using 5CC to pull your opponent back in a bit so that Azhi gets behind them. -If Azhi is too close after 236B and you attempt to cross up, then 22A will hit early and become a non-cross up. -Delaying 5BB or 5CC may be necessary so that Azhi travels close enough to actually hit. -If Azhi is not on screen, then just raw 5BB should be sufficient to go into the setup. -Holding A so that Azhi is always closest proximity when on screen is also extremely helpful. -This is easiest done when opponent is crouching, if they standing you have to use 623A/B > 236B in order for Azhi to jump over. -Doesn't seem to work too well on Akatsuki and Waldstein for whatever reason -Shielding certain spots can mess up the setup. Other options off this setup: Jump over: https://youtu.be/LOxQQqc35YY?t=863 Generally beats mashing, loses to DPs Back Dash: https://youtu.be/LOxQQqc35YY?t=849 Generally beats DP and mashing Throw or Backdash: Beats Shielding or Baits Throws https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=163 Shimazaki's Confirm off of 22A cross up: 22A > Dash under side swap if necessary > j.B > j.C > j.2C> land 2C > 5CC > 623A > j.A > j.C > j.2C [2712 Damage] 13:30 Chaos assault j.A confirm vs Gordeau Assault j.A > CS > j.C > j.236A > 5CC > j.B > j.C > j.2C > 5BB > 236B Vs Eltnum (15:13) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=scClz-zWRCs Vs ROW Gordeau (2:22) -More cross up goodness Vs Yuzuriha (16:00) 18:00 Useful combo: 2A > 2C > 5CC > j.B > j.C > j.2C > 2C > 236B > 623B > 236C > BC > dash > j.2C Vs Merkava (19:50) 2015/5/10 FT5 Shimazaki Set with Ohittou Seth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0Jc53YN1as Shimazaki uses 6C a lot to cover 22A/22B whiffing: https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=517 https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=1400 Throw > 2A (whiff) > Throw: https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=556 Cool 236B anti air: https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=599 Setting cross ups during neutral: https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=1188 Throw option: https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=1335 Ohittou uses VO to force time out win: https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=1248 6C > CS > 5CC: Air Unblockable https://youtu.be/V0Jc53YN1as?t=1364 General Note: Shimazaki is very good about CSing before killing his opponent to convert extra meter. 2015/5/10 Red vs White https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLwNYS1Q1Mo >Not sure who this Chaos is.

Strange Chaos combo, ends in 623C instead of... anything better: https://youtu.be/k-NCv_adAhA?t=502 -Maybe input error? Or hes doing it intentionally so he can dash under and put his opponent between Chaos and Azhi.
