SB Beast gives knockdown?!?!?! Not sure how I feel about the bubble shrinking faster. I hope the change to the untech time concerning wall bounces for j.2B isn't too bad because I like j.2B combos but I'll deal. Everything else looks really good though. Be sure to thank this Bull guy for me. I really appreciate them taking the time to translate.

Yes, delicious summon buffs. Going to gobble these up. Sad that SB Shining Arrows no longer has persona invuln but that D version not making the Persona appear though is pretty godlike. Also, j.C nerfs ;.; We're going to have to enjoy being a jerk with j.C while we still can guys. As for present oki, it's hard to say if it's really as strong as the old sweep > 5D stuff from P4U1. If I am remember correctly, the real nerf there wasn't really that the gatling was removed but that even if you could somehow get the 5D oki, all the opponent had to do was let it hit them and they would get out. I'm curious to see if ASW has done anything similar in this case. From the looks of it though, it feels like delay teching can beat the non SB version. SB version looks pretty legit though but there might be ways to deal with it, though in my head, I'm only seeing character specific options. We'll have to wait and see what tech and counter tech gets discovered. Also, kind of feel like we're quickly going in a direction where we need a thread dedicated to mixup and pressure. Might try to create one in the next few weeks with what's been mentioned in this gameplay thread so far while keeping note of 2.0 tech. Hmmm, maybe it's better to just make 2 separate threads though. Eh, we'll see. tl:dr, Marie is really looking like the character I was thinking she be now and I'm very happy about it. I hope a few strong JP players pick her up early so we can hopefully get some nice footage.

There's a change listed for j.B but it sounds more like they shortened the hitbox in some way from what I can tell with google translate but can't be sure.

PDF with more detailed list of changes. Rise's changes are on Page 28. I'll make a new thread with the list of final changes when there's a full translation available. Seems like you were right TD. The C Version of Platinum Disc has less recovery from what I'm understanding of Google translate. You're also right Maso. Tetrakarn has strike startup invincibility. The PDF mentions something about the 2nd hit of j.2B on air hit but I can't make it out with google translate alone. If it can reliably get the 2nd hit and its special cancellabe as TD observed, I'm thinking ASW intentionally did this to allow us to set up note oki easier off it but guess we'll see. This is all I could make out from the PDF through google translate. Hopefully a full translation becomes available later

Footage of Rise's official 2.0 changes Yes! Finally get to see the change in trajectory. So holding the B version of Rock You seems to place the musical notes at ground level at about 1/3 and 2/3 of the screen, making them perfect for controlling ground space. Wish they showed the whole new "Exploding forward" thing though. Also, they'd changed the Platinum Discs. I couldn't quite figure out how just from watching but it looks like its very combo friendly now. Can't wait to see people experiment with it.

Footage of 2.0 Sho's Official changes It shows the strengths of dodge's buffs well. The change in startup to D air High Speed Movement looks good too.

Footage of Labrys Official 2.0 changes Anyone else notice the change to C bubbles trajectory? It actually comes back around at ground level after traveling 1/3ish of the screen now. The changes to the axe gauge and C/SB Beast look delicious. Looking forward to next week.

0 making some good use of the new Capture brake to dodge projectiles. I might be wrong but it feels/looks like Bullet keeps the projectile invuln, even during the brake part. Or at least for the earlier parts of it. Also, lately, I've been noticing Bullet players going for jump back j.[D] sometimes for corner oki. I didn't think much of it earlier. I thought it was probably just to catch roll techs. But while watching 0 in this Tachikawa 3on3, I've noticed this happen twice. Pretty neat. It takes advantage of the ton of active frames that her Ds have.

Haven't posted anything here since the combo vids so I thought I'd post interesting stuff I saw while watching 0's Bullet earlier.

Don't have first hand experience since I can't really play until my Persona PS4 stick arrives later this month. But from what I understand from hearing other people talk and what I've seen on streams so far, netplay Mays can be pretty obnoxious when playing this character. Wouldn't be surprised if newer and/or players not that good at the game are opting to not want to deal with it right now.

Sin, Elphelt and Leo are console only for now. Pretty sure he's tournament legal in Japan. I think people even used him for the last MixUp Night tournament Yes, he's tournament legal here in the states currently,

Didn't see this here yet bu if I'm interpreting this google translate correct, according to the Labrys loketest notes from this wiki page, It seems there's only one version of SB Tsurugi now (The AB version) and it tracks like Teddie's SB Teddievision. Neat.

Nope, nothing. Though interestingly enough, the wiki that has the loketest info compiled doesn't mention anything about j.B being a mid. It's possible this compilation just missed it. It talks about the first hit of j.2B but that's always been a mid. Guess they're just reconfirming it. Still, this lack of info from the loketest is concerning for me in terms of the amount of Rise play we can expect from JP when 2.0 releases next week. Hopefully, I'm reading too much into it.

Don't worry about it. Keeping the threads up to date is mostly volunteer work after all. You do what you can when you have the time available. If stuff came up, it's not a big deal.

1/2/2015 JP PSN - Woshige (Millia) VS JT (Sin) The first hour and 40 minutes is of Woshige vs JT. The rest is Woshige vs Koichi's Elphelt.

12/20/2014 Urban Square Casuals These casuals are pretty much an hour and half of Musui's Akihiko vs Victims, lol. There's also 2 matches with Domi's Akihiko at the end.

I'm very sorry to hear this. I hope everything turns out all right.

Merry Christmas, everyone. Be sure not to eat too much for Christmas dinner tonight ^,^

Didn't see a video thread so I thought I'd dump this here since there might be Leo players looking for good early footage. Bace streamed some offline casuals last weekend and there's a lot of footage of ZIdane playing Leo in it for those interested. There's footage of him fighting Rams and Zatos as well if you're willing to look for it (There's like 20+ hours of footage here) Stream Archives Part 1 Part 2 Part 3

I wish I could properly express how jelly I am of you right now.
