Sorry about not replyin sooner. Anyway, Terumi is a character who, much like ourselves, excels in pressure. Trying to find a gap will be difficult, especially when you barrier and he starts using 5B stagger (+3 on barrier... fml). However, 5B stagger is only useful as a stagger tool for Terumi. It doesn't help with his mixup outside of goin for grab/command grab. His 5C>j.2D is a pretty solid pressure reset and there's not really anything you can do about it, but its obvious. Just don't get mixed up by this. 2C>j.2D is a little less obvious, but its not as safe either. For us Relius players, you just have to block until he tries to mix us up. His command grab is free to punish with falling j.C if you see it coming. Hell, its punishable by almost anything really, its 25f startup gives it a huge gap (7f and more) on all of his moves. Really though, you just don't wanna get caught. Play your superior neutral game. All of Terumi's long range pokes (save 6C) are projectile property. This means ignis eats them. Make ignis eat Terumi if you want to win.

Getting blue beat into astral while holding 1AB. With how they changed the system, I should have teched instanty. SCREW YOU ARK FOR HAVING SELECTIVE MECHANICS.

It also turns you around in the opposite direction, and the movement doesn't give you any disadvantage really, I don't get your point there. I accepted your match though because I do know how hard it is to find someone to play against lately. That does NOT mean I didn't think it was kinda dickish. Everyone plays lobby differently, and my way of playong it is obviously different from yours, and I will think that the way you think you're "entitled" to take several people's spot because you lack the patience to sit for a minute or two or ask for games is rude. The only reason I came back after fighting you the first time is because Icing had left the room temporarily (or at least I couldn't find em). If you want games, send a message, say something, I don't care. I just dont want OTHER people getting screwed out of matches because someone else mashed harder.

You could've just as easily sat in a spot and waited for someone to come to you, as someone did after I left. Personally, I have no issue with who I go against, but when the person I was playing is gettin screwed out of rounds when they got in and took a cab first. You were the only one mashing X on people playing out sets. I already said I didn't mind fighting you, but just mashing X in lobby is quite essentially pushing someone away and stealing their controller. Words man, you can use them. Even if you hate the lobby chat, people will still see your message. Obviously I wasnt mucb of a challenge to you regardless, so why steal matches from people below your skill level?

If there were only 2 arcade machines, you'd have a point, but lobby isn't suppose to simulate arcades. Even at arcades (least here in america), people don't just leave or let the next person there go. Even if you're standing there for forever. Typically ypu use WORDS to COMMUNICATE the fact that you want to play, not mash X and try to piss everyone off that you know WILL BE PISSED. What kind of arcade has 32 machines of the same game anyway? And its not that I had an issue fighting you, the fact that I said "took A round" means I acknowledge you are very good. I didn't do led ley cuz I thought it was unpunishable, I did it cuz I have a bad grasp on what you're going to do next. ID as I said was for luls, just because if the fact that I lost pressure/oki every time you work up cuz of ID being there. Just cuz I was pissed that you were jacking spots has nothing to do eith how I think of you as a player, just as a person.

I'm glad I got one round on him then, just so he had to take me seriously or look like a complete dumbass. Anyway, I'm on literally whenever. If you get bored, even if it doesn't say I'm online, my vita still gets the message. ... ... I am Captain Cotton of the no-ife train -cry-

Figures the day I decide to try ranked out, I'd run into someone who's faked their way to 100% win rate at low levels through RQing. IF YOU'RE GONNA RAGE QUIT ON ME, YOU BETTER SEND ME A STUPID ASS RAGE MESSAGE. How am I suppose to enjoy the game if I don't at least get salt from these people? Would these circumstances be acceptable to send them a rage message about not rage messaging me?

Ggs Icing. Sorry that people are dicks when it comes to lobby, I eventually just ended up hving a habit of mashing X while in lobby, but seriously. Hated that he's jacking seats, hated fighting him. Kinda wanna see a stupid ass 2.0 change for ragna that says "ID is now only foot invul" just for luls.

The only better starters I can think might do more damage than 236x(w)>6A is of you have vorpal to CS 214/623x. Both lead into full combos and get an instant 1.4k damage. Sadly, you could've probably gotten more damage from the wiff 6A if you were able to get it out. With Vorpal that shits stupid.

Car crowbar? xD I watched the rounds, that Bullet round made me kinda sad after he wrecked a good Litchi and Nu player. I watch him, and it always looks like he can get away with almost anything. I mean, TRIPLE 6A? Granted, he got grabbed by the Litchi player that one time, but still. Another thing I notice while watching him is he's not afraid to block for DAYS. "Oh, you hit me and got oki? Pfffft, whatever, I'll just block for some meter and CA." I try my hardest to never block, but he got his gameplan started several times by mashing into oki. I need to mash more.

Thats the weird thing... seems the extra hitstun off FC keeps his head from popping back up into j.A's range. You can do 41236B FC>j.B>j.C, but I couldn't get anywhere.

I couldn't even get this to work on tager. Apparently Ark wants us to troll she shit outta Valk players by showing them our j.A NOT being pointless in the mu. Not very applicable, but hilarious nonetheless.

You ready for this? Point blank 5C, standing dummy Valk [5C(1)>j.A>j.B>j.C>66]x3>5C>3C>236C>214A>3C [3044/21/1000]

Ggs to Tesno. Not sure if bringing my rust to our matches was a good workout or a masochists quest. I play against Valk and I'm just like "well... he hit me. Time to put the controller down this round" xD. Was glad to be able to mash out of a few wolf dashes however, more than I could accomplish from our other rounds. Btw, lobbies always at a dead 0 in US?

Thing about the crossup ley though is I have no clue exactly how safe it is. Led ley also has a pretty obvious animation when goin for crossups. I mentioned it though cux ppl dont see it alot

Yeah, dismissal not included cuz you can be in that situation without ignis frequently from my experience. I go for RC paths almost whenever available cuz of the godlike corner carry and great damage.

One of my biggest annoyances as well as my greatest moments of power: 0 bar tagers relying on purple GETB. So laggy you cant tech a grab without missin the window or gettin TRM'd is annoying as hell. Getting a pretty good connection to one of these guys, teching their purple GETB and astraling brings out the sadist in me.

On your ignis optimized corner RC combo, for 25 heat you can throw in a CT after the RC and get 4.4k damage and still end with 3C. 800 damage aint bad if you can confirm it right.

So, anyone ever tried gimmicky resets with the [5B>5C(1)>6D>j.C]xN loops on opponents who respect? Because of the fact it keeps the opponent standing for forever, feels like you could get 2k from the loop and do: -delayed airdash j.B>j.C -grab whenever the hell you want -after 5C, go for an unblockable setup -2D into led ley crossup shenanigans or dp bait -simply end the combo lol

That's exactly what I said though. Her command grab has good grame data is basically all I said. If her other options don't allow her to make use of it however, its not gonna work out well. I wouldn't count Noel's grab in there with the others since its basically a low mixup option instead of a true command grab. Nirvana's isn't a grab either. Tager is a grappler who has issues of his own, so his should be good. Haz and Valk are the only ones that can freely make their command grabs a threat. Terumi's sucks. Plat's sucks unless you have a specific setup for it. Bang's is stupid bad on wiff (leads to good dmg though). Kagura's is only available in drive which normally he has the same issue as Tsubaki when it comes to connecting with it. Looking through this... I don't think Ark knows how to implement command grabs lol.

Honestly, in and of itself, her command grab isn't that bad. Its faster than most other command grabs in the game and its a lot quicker to recover than other command grabs. Its her toolset not being build to allow it to be readily useful more than anything. Give her some more forward momentum, a few longer ranged moves that are + on block to make her threatening. She's proven she can be good before, its judt up to the devs to say "hey guys, lets buff Tsubaki" before he gets thrown into the dumps next to the guy who wanted to buff Makoto.

Does anyone have a connection to someone in Japan to ask to get some GOOD info out of the next loketest for Relius? We got like no info from the last one even though it was a huge joke anyway. The biggest and most prominent thing, Id Zein, didn't even get TOUCHED on. How can we be any sort of hype for 2.0 when all we got were told were his nerfs?

I doubt it'd be nore useful than 236D or 214C even if it was sped up. It only hits once, and unlike Nirvana 2D, we actually have to stop what we're doing to use it. Rather than 214D be sped up, it'd be much more useful to get a faster 6A. It wouldn't be great, since its animation is still obvious as hell, but it'd be more applicable than 214D. Really, if they kept Relius exactly the same (save maybe the meter including the revive animation) I'd be happy. Maybe give us back our OP 13f backdash xD.

Or crush it with you're bare hands... ps3 controllers are weak as hell man, they can't contain my rage. I went through 2 controllers before getting my hitbox, and luckily my hitbox is very durable.

I've been salty today, mostly cuz of thr HF>grab/ID shenanigans and me hitting A+D for grab tech. Makes me sad, I couldn't even do my IAD combos.
