I heard Jin's laugh in the story mode.

I accidentally 214B'd one day as Jin, and when it happened... it was something magical. Something... BEAUTIFUL. I don't abuse it anymore and I actually learned how to play Jin/Ragna, but the day I first discovered Musou Senshouzan was simply AMAZING.

Hi guys, after 2 months or so, I'm back. Here's a little check-in to tell you guys about the progress with my Ky. Okay, so I finally figured out the FRC. I'm not good at it, and I can't really use it for anything other than 236K > FRC > Greed Sever > 5Sc > 2H. And here's the problem, I can't get the Vapor Thrust out after the 2H, and I can't land the 5Sc > 2H consistantly, and the times I do get it, I have to mash the S and H buttons. (To be fair, I mash B and C while doing the jBC jBCs in Nanaya's combos in Melty Blood, so whatever works for now, I suppose...) I'm ashamed to say that I finally discovered what the Lightning Javelin is, so I can end my dust combo with that, but unfortunately, I can't FRC well enough or catch the opponent well enough to set up for the 5Sc > 2H > VT loop. Also, I can't do Lightning Smite. It is beyond me. I've spent countless amounts of time 2Ding a CPU in Training mode, then mashing 222 S as fast as I can, or doing a dust combo, ending with Lightning Javelin and then trying 222 S. I've read over the beginner guides and watched countless tutorials on Ky for GGXXAC. There is little explanation beyond the moves that need to be done, my fingers can't seem to execute these actions well enough, however. Is this normal when first starting? If so, how did you guys overcome it? I didn't have these kinds of problems with Melty Blood. <_< I'm tired of seeing: GS > 5Sc > 2H > Standing still looking like an asshat while my opponent gets up. Oh, and I've discovered the value of Ky and his coconuts. I guess Smash isn't the only gaming community with private jokes. (Beer cancelling and steak.) I'll get new videos up over the weekend. But based on the information given, can anyone provide a helpful diagnosis to my problem? D:

Thanks! I've never really found a great use for the CSE, but I guess I have one now. I spammed 6H because I found it can follow up into 5D, in which case I can make up a stupid little combo. I haven't figured out a lot of things yet, and I still have trouble getting a 623H (I think that's a vapor thrust) out correctly. Also, is there an easier way to get a 5D in without running at them and trying to hit them with a 6H first? Being a Melty Blood player, I'm a bit used to the aerial comboing and it's something that I find comfortable. I dunno how to FRC, and it's a bit complicated for the level of play I'm at right now. I've had the game for 1-2 days and I've only played for roughly an hour. Are there any blockstings, mix-ups or others I should be aware of?

Hi, Ky players. Not one of you know me, so allow me to introduce myself. I'm WaffleZ, a competitive Super Smash Bros. Brawl player. I've been into competitive gaming for about half a year now and I just recently created an account on Dustloop forums. Why, you ask? I bought the game yesterday, and after playing it a bit with my friends, we want to take it to the same level of depth and play I did with Brawl. There's only one person I'm familiar with in this thread, and it's HF Blade. I don't recognize him from GG however, I recognize him from Melty Blood. HF, if you're reading this, yes, I do play. I'm a Nanaya main. As my first post on Dustloop, I might as well try to make it useful. Onto the real purpose of this thread: I'm not quite sure if this is generally accepted at Dustloop, but over at the Smash forums, there were two kinds of video threads. One was a straight up video thread to browse different players. Another one was a critique thread, where people would post their videos one at a time to be put up for critiquing, given advice and gameplay tips and such. It was a huge benefit for new players such as myself to hear from the veterans and be taught new things based on how they play, and as a whole it drew the community closer together. Here's how it's done: -Post videos of your Ky playing in a match. -Respond to that person by quoting or however with advice. -Repeat. This will be especially helpful to new players such as myself. I can't really FRC, I haven't learned all the terminology quite yet, but just because I can't play too well doesn't mean I can't try to contribute to the boards, right? As for critiquing, how about I go first? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngcAGrfejI0 (vs Zappa) We're both new players, so be gentle.
