Probably not too many AH3 had more new players because it was the first PS3 one. But if you can post a vid I'm sure people can tell you what you are doing wrong in general. Just remember that meter is REALLY important in this game with how overpowering 4GC and 6GC are. So I would really only focus on combos that use EFC+0meter and EFC+1 meter everything else is situational. When do you play?

To be more clear, Love is STATS + laser. It's the best arcana if all you ever use your arcana for is EFC. Laser is really nice and simple to use as well.

623C > teleport if it whiffs...623X series is air unblockable but hella free on whiff you can use a charge to just teleport instead. You can do the same with 236X series. Other uses are like uhhh ending with j.623X into j.214X.

So my current combos of choice, tone Zenia vs Love Heart. Damage chart X=Red O=Perfect j.B land 5B > 5C > 236A > [A+D] > EFC dash then 9j. 623[X] > 6D~4 j.C land 6B > 5C > 2C > 236A > [A+D] X,X,X =10.6k X,O,O =11.4k O,X,X =13.3k O,X,O = 13.5k O,O,X = 14.1k O,O,O = 14.5k Different starters can yield more damage. j.B land 5B > 5C > 236A > [A+D] > 6D 623[X] > EFC dash then 9j. 623[X] > 6D~4 j.C land 6B > 5C > 2C > 236A > [A+D] X,X,X,X = 11.35k X,O,X,X = 12.1k O,X,X,O =14.47k O,O,X,X =15.57k O,O,X,O = 15.75k air 2 too much damage 236X~C 5B j.B > 623[X] > 6D~4 j.C land 5C > 236X > [A+D] > EFC > 66 9j.623[X] > 6D~4 j.C land dash 6B > 5C > 2C > 236A > [A+D] -pro tip don't do 5B if 236X~C counter hits just go straight to j.B -Works with air confirms too of course X,X,X,X = 10.87k Only the first one works when you have the opponent cornered So basically DON'T MISS THE FIRST ONE then your good, second is nice after that meh w/e. It should be noted that Sin/Sacred/Thunder and probably others can just eclipse after this and it will add about 1k more damage. editing with more damage values after I eat dinner. Edit: on second though while ending with another grab is cool your probably better off with something else.

I havn't played Time Lilica in LM but in AH3, I know you could 44~6B immediately so your backdash would actually cover parts of your standing B hitbox. You could also do things like 44~6 8j. and punish things like a Fiona 214A+B super by just backdashing>canceling>jumping out of the first hit, I assume you can still do this. For oki just end a combo with time super then just hit them with j.C after that, then you can land and setup orbs/clones whatever.

Not sure how the matchup has changed in the new one but flower was not good against sharl in the last one because it gave 0 meter on block. Sin was what everyone in NC counter picked Sharl with, Love/Plant weren't too bad either. I had success with time as well because backdashing j.6C=free combo but that's not really reliable. With Halo I'm doing things > 236A > EFC > 5B > 6C > 766 j.C > j.623E land 5D > D > j.B > j.E > j.623E , 66 > j.B > JC > j.B > j.C > 214A > 236236E 2E > EFC > j.C > 236E , j.D > j.B > j.E > j.623E , 66 j.B > JC > j.B > j.C > whatever. On top of the normal ones. edit: asked our Sharl player and he mentioned Metal, Halo, Dark, Tone, Time as well as above

PICK TIME (5C>REKKAs)xN DO DAMAGE!!!!!

Just Arcana supers

If you clash vs airborne with Cathy's 5B, it's coinflipping time. If you expect a cancel into a really fast move say an A/B move, lariet will work. If you expect them to cancel into something that breaks Lariet Armor like a C or E, use 2A instead.

To light the new bomb you gotta hit it with fire. Cathy j.E, 5E, 623X series all accomplish this. A few other things in the game like Zenia perfect Edin also light it up instantly.

RIP TIME AKANE; BNB GONE; TIME BACKDASH NERFED,; HER BEST VORTEX GONE. Love/Dark/Lighting/Flower/Wind/Sin Akane are still good though and with the Halo buffs I would put that on the list too. What crippled her just as much as the nerfs to j.B was the nerf to homing and speed homing.

Perfect Edins are where the damage is at. Main combo route I'm using is blah blah 5C > 236A~[A+D] > (6D 623[X] >) EFC 9j.623[X] > 6D~4 j.C land 5C > 2C > 236A~C~B > 214X/Blast Replace 236A~[A+D] with 28B > 623[X] if near corner It gets entirely too much damage with goldens I got 21k off CH 5C with Love Zenia vs Fire Mei-Fang. With 2 meter and 1 EFC who needs 2f suki when you can deal that much damage. Note missing just the first golden means like 3.5k less damage or something so yeahhh don't miss. Off air random confirms I'm still working on optimal, it doesn't seem like you can do too much off a confirm into air golden, but if you get one raw you can do completely insane damage. As golden > 6D~4~3 j.C land 28B > 623[X] works 236A~[A+D] is absurd it lets you get corner combos midscreen like (6D 623[X] >)xN working The old staircase seems pretty worthless to me so far it just does so little damage compared to what you could be doing. I'm just using Love with a bit of Sacred and Sin for now. Zenia has all the tools she will ever need at neutral/oki right now, laser helps but loves stats help more. Sin is more of an Anti-Tone Sharl thing I'll see how that pans out since Sharl is a completely different beast.

Actual delay is a non issue really, the lag spikes I mostly bitch and moan a lot while trying to repeatedly mashing the input I need to do but I have gotten so many block inputs dropped from the a lag spike it's absurd. For some reason I can be playing with 1-2 bar players from jp no problem then get on a US group everyone has 6+ bars and it starts spiking all over the place making it damn near unplayable.

Do you mean BR -> BC -> AC -> Sub or do you mean BR >> AC -> sub ?

Bahhh that's pretty much what I have been trying, I guess I should be more specific the main suits I'm having problems with are Quant and Master, with God 00 and Banshee to a lesser degree. Edit: flipping though some vids and seeing what people are doing in tournaments it seems like the option I didn't have in my arsenel was blocking, a good number of them if they get caught guessing wrong just block and hold off for a bit and that seems to better the odds.

So what's the best way to deal with a melee suit just sitting on top of you on wakeup?

I have been playing Assault a good bit too for the same reason. I don't like using red lock gerobi's unless it's like guarenteed(they overheated). At last when you green lock gerobi you arn't totally screwed if you whiff it.

Dang that must of been like tens of thousands of dollars to hit Gensui in arcade.

You can actually do 2B > 2B -> BC and for some reason when activated(not CSb, I mean using your meter) you can do 2B > 2B > 2B ->BC

Edited: thanks to Brett

Don't stars already show that though?

So what do CP(command points) do?

CSa - Charge Shot A CSb - Charge Shot B Burst/Activate - A+B+C

B tier suits I feel alot of them feel like wrong cost for what they do if that makes sense, like they arn't bad they just have metagame issues. Correct me if I'm wrong but I feel like Susanoo suffers from this, on a 2500/3000 team, getting his transam out twice is like pulling teeth. When I felt in EXVS when he was 2000 it was a lot easier to get it. It's either that or they are just lack luster and it's I feel like you can just point to another suit and say why am I not playing this instead.

Yessss, signed up exactly how much ecred is on the line I must know? How long do these normally take I gotta get up at like 5am EST on monday cause work?
