I have a treat for you guys tomorrow. I've been dusting off my Izayoi.

Not sure why, but I've had a lot of success with using 6A on my opponents wakeup. I either get a nice FC combo or a BNB, it's all nice for catching rolls too.

There's always magical girl Carl.

I long for the day when we can feint cancel 6A.

Honestly, I wish ASW would just patch it out. It's pretty pointless.

Aww.. in other news I just realized Memorial Day means no school. So after the tourney, how about some casuals?

So how exactly are we navigating neutral here? His chains are really a problem, since they pretty much allow him to do whatever he wants.

Wow, I had no idea that feature even existed.

Is there anything we can do to stop him from running around in neutral and spamming j.5D? It's pretty annoying how safe it is.

Gais plz, stahp.

Someone said this guy was an honest/fair character? I can't even fathom.. Since I'm here, I think I can say this matchup isn't that bad. Luckily you can keep him in the corner for a long time due to his backdash not really being able to help him there. Although I do mash 5A just to insure his backdash won't work. You can bait growler pretty nicely, but I find that move to be a bit stupid as far as punishing goes. Other than that, my only real complaint is neutral. The major thing is Gustaf, the fact that it's range is pretty good and it's not punishable makes it like a better version of our 236C. Once he's in, here comes his dash shenanigans.

GG's to Neo Zeromus. We need to go a full set sometime.

No, that's the thing, he did use 2CC and it still worked.

I don't quite remember which video I saw it on, but I remember seeing someone do "6A > 5CC > 6BB > 214B > 5C > 2CC > 236? > 214B > 22B" I can't figure out which version of 236X was used to get the combo to work.

The fact that I keep getting countered by Hakumen's drives, and yet I know I can guard them irritates me. I need to practice this in training mode more.

Ah, forgot to post. Sign me up.

I kinda like Azrael, I always wanted a character that could body me effortlessly and make it actually look painful as well. The way he makes people ragdoll across the stage is pretty cool too. People that are connection nazis. I can understand you not wanting to play a lag fest, no one does. But on the same coin, realize that you're playing online, lag will be inevitable. I just hate roaming around searching for people because no one wants to fight a 2V.

First 1.1 footage of me! Not sure how to deal with Hazama.. http://youtu.be/-tnlFjgHylA

People that burst when they have a sliver of life left and you have an immense life lead on the first round. Far be it from me to tell you how to use your resources, but to me it seems pointless.

gg's to DarkRanger.

So... Mu-12? Yeah, that's why we all love her.

gg's to lime. It seems no matter what I do, your Hazma always gets me in the end.

Alright then, so I may or may not be a bit late, Nerd.

I may not be able to make it, because I'm participating in Brett's tournament. And I just realized their 5pm is my 7pm, so I'm not sure if this will work out.

Is there any way to see rolls before they finish the animation? I'm trying to get better at catching them with 2B or 5C.
