CorrectDefense

I was pretty much tired, drunk, and ranting when I made this post. I realized after I got some sleep that I pretty much am going to have to play and lose a lot of matches and learn all the basic information by trial and error. Its still upsetting that I have to start at this level for a fighting game, because I tend to advance pretty quickly because I like to lab everything before I even play sets with anyone, but it is what it is.

Like I said, there is enough information about combos everywhere. But, it doesn't make sense for me to analyze matches when I have no idea what the moves are that are being blocked, or what the correct responses to those moves are as to if the players are even responding and punishing correctly. I have no way of knowing that. Thanks to the first poster I at least have some of his frame data, but it is still useless to me because most of the characters ill have to dive through all of the discussions to hopefully find a post with their frame data and other information about their strings that makes it relevant.

I'm relatively new to Blaz Blue and I purchased BBCF yesterday, but not at all new to playing competitively with fighting games (basically I compete at majors for other games). I've found that this is pretty much the only forum that supports Blaz Blue, but there is a lot of information missing that would make learning to find the way to play this game at a high level incredibly difficult. The only consistent information I find is combos and move by move frame data, but there is so much more information to a fighting game that isn't easy to find here. A lot of the character forums are wastelands where barely anyone says anything, and the few info posts are mostly placeholders. I can't find anything on match ups, basic string defense, or even punishment for my character and the game has been out for almost a month. Am I just not looking in the right places for this information? I've even looked at the wiki and its basically just the same info in the forums just in a different package (at least for the character I am interested in playing). I am a member to other fighting game forums and would love to contribute to these forums, but as a beginner there is an overwhelming amount of information I don't have that I need to even try to play this game. Edit: To provide even more information, the character I have chosen to play is Naoto. In the forums all I can find are his combos. Other than that, his forum is empty as far as info goes. His wiki is even worse where there is pretty much no info for him other than his overview page which is overly basic stuff such as all of his movelist with very few pieces of info about each move. I get that he is not considered to be one of the better characters in the game, but I didn't think that this little information was available for him. Why is it there are tier lists I can find on here, but the information available for characters is so bare, there shouldn't even be enough to form a tier list?

This is my problem. I'm guessing since you didn't get a response, the problem hasn't been fixed?

Err has any of this changed since any of the updates? I've had no success with Drive cancel into dash enhanced moves. I only got the game yesterday so its probably user error but I wanted to be sure. Edit: Nevermind lmao just user error. I switched to 1p side and did it so I guess its just my execution 2p side :P
