God, can I give you an e-high five? I've been trying to tell him this all the time. >_<

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/FakeBalance See skill based balance. This is what I was talking about. >_>

^Oh yeah, at Animazement. I should've went with you instead of playing BB with Alice's_Emotion all day. Oh yeah, and rabble rabble, makoto changes arg!

Anyone got any experience in this match-up yet? From what little against him I played a lot of his moves seem to stuff Noel's drives, and I have a particularly hard time anti-airing with 4D or 5D. 6A might be better for getting though his j. C. I found that I had the most success playing this match a little more offensively, but than was an online fight and my Noel sucks so... Also, does anyone know how Valkfunka works? I thought it had invincible start-up but I think I stuffed it with a 3C. EDIT: Also, Mods: Please delete if its too soon for a match-up thread for Valk.

That's their MvC2 re-release art dood.

^I'm pretty sure Henaki is just kidding. It is difficult to tell, though... But yeah, I'd like to know the reasoning behind Makoto being worse off against Tager than Noel. At the very least, Mak can dp though Gadget shenanigans, while Noel can't really do anything save for a distortion if she gets caught. But, admittedly, I suck at this game so please explain.

The new voices are way, way better. Josh Keaton is spectacular. @_@

I thought we established that Rachel bites Ragna in every loop...

Wait, Platinum was playable at this thing, right? I feel like I've missed something...

On Makoto's 3C, I think as long as your not predictable with it, it can be a useful tool. On a more wish list related note, it'd be cool if Mak's 3C became jump cancelable during its start up. Imagine the shenanigans!

Not all characters utilize mix-up to get damage in. >_>

To expand a bit, basically even though Rags has good pressure, if you can block correctly, he can't do shit because his pressure ends quicker than Bangs or Litchi's.

^Not really. Nobody has really reached any kind of meta game with the new characters, and you never know when someone will discover a new tool, so its difficult to place them.

So, is it possible for you to rip Makoto's sprites yet, Circ?

Question. If I hit someone in the air with j.5D or 6D, what are something I can follow up with? I apologize if this has been discussed before, and if it has, a link to the related post(s) would be awesomesauce. EDIT: Wait... Should this have gone in the FAQ thread? If so, could a mod move it to the correct place please?

I'm having problems with this match-up as well. Tips for punishing drive?

So, how high is the execution barrier in this game? Is it hard to use a pad? I've been messing around in AH1 with Saki and Heart and I can do basic stuff like Heart's 2A, 2B, 2C, 236B, 623AB, 5HC, jA, jB, jC, 623C but I can't figure out combos that use 6D after 2C...

So, question. Can we make a news discussion thread in BB General? Like how we have video posting thread and a separete video discussion thread? Or should I just make a new topic about what I wanna discuss?

For Refence sake: Jabaki (236D) = Venom Sword Jasetsu (214D) = Serpent's Benidiction Ressenga (214D~A) = Falling Fang Gashoukyaku (214D~B) = Rising Fang Zaneiga (214D~C) = Devouring Fang Hirentotsu (in air 214B) = Wind Serpent's Fang Gasaishou (236C) = Bloody Fang Jakou (623D) = Hungry Coils Jayoku Houtenjin (236236B) = Serpent's Inferno/Infernal Rapture/Rapter (help?) Mizuchi Rekkazan (632146) = Eternal Coils of the Dragon Serpent Right?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0JqKTTZ2K4&playnext_from=TL&videos=RvFBuP0Txyw&feature=sub I still can tell what Jayaku is supposed to be... Also: CHECK OUT MY SNAKE needs to be meme.

Meh. I like it. Can anyone make out the move names?

So, question. I've been messing around with Nu in hopes of maining Lambda when CS comes out, and I was wondering how difficult the conversion from Nu to Lambda is. Sorry if this has been discussed before.

For CS, while I don't intend to drop Noel or Ragna, I'm looking into learning Lambda and Hazama. Lambda because, again I gravitate to blonde people. (Yes, Ragna counts!) Hazama because, well...
