For my jp psn code, after you verify your email, do you just wait or do I have to go back into play-asia and complete my checkout or what?

Being a Relius main, he does have intense pressure and good oki, but his mixup (from what I hear about Millia) is fairly easy to follow. His standing overhead is slow and unsafe, and his puppet mixup moves are only good for setting up oki once or twice. He's also limited by his doll meter. He does have decent jump in options though, and is fairly easy to learn. Not many defensive options though but a good amount of hp.

Is there any way to make a jp psn account without using my ps3? I can't create accounts on it cuz it says the number of accounts connected to th system is maxed even though I only have my psn account on it, but it was an existing account, so I know I can use existing ones.

Considering the damage reduction across the board plus curse not lasting as long as it did in Ex (actually using it), I feel lile this will be a lot easier. Generally controlling both left and right sides of the field severely limits Ara's mobility since 8D catches his AD pretty easily and 623D smacks him outta wall teleport. Even if he gets it out, if you're behind Ada it can be pretty easy to iad in with 5A/B. When you get in that curse though, expect about 10 seconds of hell and if he lands a hit ~4-5000 health gone. An idea posted on Relius boards that works a lot better for Carl is rapsody of memories and sitting in it for the duration of curse. Even if you're hit, I dont think Ara can convert off random bug hit without Ada slapping him.

Supposedly her soul was used to power her, cuz Carl wasn't the first to use Nirvana. Though, idk the history of all the nox.nyctores

Lol at the j.2D loops on jourdal's channel, those look amazing xD the easier tk loop, not even a tk

Will there be CP? @.@

I tried looking but I couldn't find anything about this screen @.@ maybe I'll just take a pic and ask Kurushi directly tomorrow. I supposedly have to wake up early -_-

After the step where it says enter your birthday it brings me to a message with an exclamation point in the top left cornerand says somethin sony playstation yadayada can't read or remember it, its in japanese xD

So does that mean its acceptable to do nothing but mash taunt even if you lose? xD still tryin to get my jp psn set up

I dunno where to really ask this, tryin to make a jp psn account, I keep getting to the DOB screen and when I hit next it doesn't take me to the license agreement thing -_- doesn't gove me anything I can say yes or no to actually, only somethin I can back out of

So I bought a ps3 today :O Next step, CP. Cept I'm havin issues makon a jp psn xD;

Did you see how much someone would buy your busted ps3 for? Price dropped to 150 used at gamestop, so I know they're definitely a lot more affordable than before, as I just bought my ps3 today. As for help with specific parts, I don't know of I could be much help there.

Like when I found out that rising j.A is good on Haks cuz, excluding his now useless 6D, all his counters wiff xD also sets up for a nice j.B crossup, but like I said, only really usable on Haks, plus not as necessary since his counters can be blocked.

Not having extended pressure will take some getting use to, sonce I've been playing with Carl and Relius, but I guess I'll find out when I get it :O

Indeed. Doesn't lanto cause kd now? If not, then a lanto hit can still lead to fullscreen kd with lugia which I feel is one of the best things for him. Getting in isn't really a guess anymore.

Well a lot of his oki could just be doing thr same thing then suddenly... not doing it xD one thing I liked doing was after 3C, hit 2D and if they neutral or emergency teched, do a meaty grab before 2D hits. Course you could use 2B to tag rolls, so reading your opponent is really what it comes down to. Luckily, 214C oki is always there. Its hard to escape and gives you a lot of time to decide.

Relius does have alot of Oki, more than a lot of characters save our other Clover xD

Thanks. And what about his block strings? I've seen plenty of combos, but I havnt seen how his pressure/mixup works

Do any of his D normals have smp that limit his combo potential?

Matchup threads should steadily fill out, but shouldn't we clear em for CP or just add on to the extend ones? I specifically only look for relius videos when I'm on Jourdal's channel, but like you said, that's YT which is covered in the video thread.

I dunno why I never thought about using 2D after a 214A :/ If we start up a critique thread, I'll definitely be posting a lot in it once I get my hands on the game. I also obviously need to work on defense, but that's not character specific. Generally I use 214C for oki almost all the time because a lot of people for some reason mash it... no clue why xD

Generally having enough Ignis to combo isn't my issue, since I use the tk lauger path right now, and the main combo path in CP is very light on ignis usage. I guess I just make a lot of mistakes. Like when I summon ignis, I go straight for 214A and it gets blocked and they tap her out on the recovery. Sometimes I just j.D spam, but I've had it wiff just to have someone hit me in the recovery xD but maybe there should be a critique thread? Feel like I'd learn more if others told me my mistakes (other than 2C mash)

I spend a lot of time doing combos, but I honestly feel my neutral game is really lacking in general. I dunno if I'm not doin somethin I should be doin or if I just make bad calls, but a neutral guide I'd think is nice xD;
