  1. Haha, thanks for the compliment on the guide, and thanks for telling me about the leonard. I appreciate it. I worked hard on the guide, but I agree , I only really wrote down the basics for every character. I'm not good enough to write advance and detailed strategies for every character, so if someone is your main, you won't learn much new about them. it was a pain in the ass to write for everyone because I had to play as everyone, lol. I have detailed information about somethings with Sol as of late, such as the statistics of his dragon install and what not, but nothing amazing. Sol not only needs a buff for his units, I believe his gun flame itself also needs a buff, the move is next to useless unless your playing survival mode or something. he's definitely the lowest tier character in the game. makes winning with him the funnest.

  2. I'm planning on hitting some GG2 on sunday (feb 14). send a message or something, I should be on in the afternoon. I've been using hunchback more since xSolx has taken more interest in the unit. the result have been favorable. it's strong enough to finnish off and armor you rough it up a bit by itself, so you don't spend so long beating the enemy unit to death in order to free up a ghost. also helps in big servant clashes, since Sol's army is so garbage and needs all the help it can get. the thing takes 15 percent of your tnesion to summon, so be aware of that. carrying a tension potion can really help, it's an Item that is rarely used, but can change the tide of a fight. Ky is beast, his stunedge is unmitigated bullshit, which I love. when I pick someone who isn't Sol, it's like I embark on a magical journey where I can actually reach poeple without running into their face and getting out-zoned.
  3. How does one counter a super aggresive Izuna? Why did they make his fucking summon's slow spell imune to dispell, it's bullshit, Izuna is already really good at fighting. UGH!!! some asshole of a really good Izuna player was locking me down in ganymede, in the lower half of the map (I was sol, and as you can imagine, I was getting outzoned). he would just run in my first ghost, lay a kappa, and stay and fight, and even if I killed him, he would keep sending units and keep fighting. lag really screwed me over here because he was a good fighter and he was pulling out his god forsaken minion. the first time around, I only killed him 1 time, and he killed me 4 times, and I finally got him to retreat because I spamed about 3 groups of blades to his namehage's (and blades > namehage) when I was trying to beat on some fleeing servants, he drills into me, and brings out his bullshit summon, I am too slow to dispell it, and I fucking lose te fight thatnks to it. the after another match, were were facing each other again and it was just as bad as before, only this time I was intent on trying to defend, and made no effort to put an offensive. I managed to actually kill him3 times (and a 4th with the help of my partner) but I ended up losing that position anyway. it was INSANELY infurating. the second match , he didn't pull out the stupid minion, but he dispeled my crimson jacket without fail. I lost the match, but I don't remembr what was the cause. I now hate Izuna. Edit: I'm just bitching, but I would appreciate any pointer on dealing with the character. that is, if there are any pointers to take advantage of. urgh, damn you Izuna for being so well rounded.
  4. you asked how can you use the ignore function in the GG fan art thread, I'll answer your question here so I don't continue posting crap that's not fan art in that thread. to put people in your ignore list you have to go to your user control panel and click on "edit ignore list" on the lower left hand side. you can enter the names of the people you would like to ignore. myep.

  5. ah, c'mon, no remark on the Kimera Cryin Vs lxl Hapi lxl match? it's extremely epic! you owe it to your self to watch it as a Sol player. My heart was pounding while watching it. I didn't know you could tech chase valentine's double jump. if you want a preview of how strong the hunchback is in servant slaying and the like, play free mission "even if I reach out" and "protect the gate" with Sol on hard. he has hunchback in both those stages, so use it generously and see the results for yourself. I personally only use the minion when there's a bunch of armors out, and I'm desperate to take them down. and yes, damage scaling reduces the damage when hit with chili ball, so hit them with a power attack for maximum damage output. I've added many videos to the GG2 video thread recently, and I haven't posted every new one here, so anyone interested be sure to check it out. I remove the "new" tags and dates 7 days after I post them.
  6. this match is SO EPIC, that it deserve a double post. Kimera Cryin(Va) Vs lxl Hapi lxl http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm6460140 Ganymeade LOL pencil guys.
  7. Ok, currently, I can't draw stuff because I suck too much, so to compensate, I'll contribute some art. GG2 art of coarse.
  8. here's a question, why is VF so unpopular and something like tekken so popular? I have nothing against tekken, but I don't get why VF is so overlooked compared to that fighting game series.
  9. I swear, I will do the win and lose quotes for GG2 this weekend....I hope. sorry, but I actually don't own a 360, but I play the game weekly. every time i get in contact with the game, I say "fuck writing quotes, I NEEDZ TO PLAY THIS!!!!!!!!!" I think I can sit down now and write them down next time I get a chance. it's been bothering me that I didn't do it yet. here's a taste of what Ky says! start of the match: 1) I guess words don't get through to you... 2) Do we have to Fight? 3) I'll show you the power of the thunderclap! I'll get the rest and send them to you later mkay? probably by next week, since I can get these only on the weekends. I'll give you start of the match quotes, and Win quotes. I'm not certain I can get the lose quotes, they are harder to get.

  10. Hunchback is....situational. it really isn't all that against another master, but it's primarily for Sol to get some serious back-up when he's facing servants. armors and magics in particular, ESPECIALLY elites (Sol doesn't really need back up for magics, but whatever) because it's a mobile, it's good against everything but melee's (remember that mobiles have a slight advantage over range that the game never tells you!). pull this thing out on a bone bitter and it becomes much easier to kill (especially when you have 3 of them out at once). I know it really isn't saying much, but this minion is the best out of all the minions when it comes to servant slaying. though not that great against masters, it has its uses. the chilli ball attack holds master in place for a power attack, and if the master blocks the chilli ball, HE'S STUCK! just like a rapid fire. all of Sol's units that aren't an elite are not reliable back-up, but with careful positioning, this thing can help out a bit. and if your lucky, it will smack the opponent when they are ignoring it, and even save you mid-combo (but don't count on it) link to the translated Raven Guide I mentioned earlier, translated by suzaku. http://www.dustloop.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5429&page=2 I don't mind 1 vs 1 against the same character, but it's definitely less interesting. it's a good testament of skill though, because there's no worry about unbalance and shit like that, just straight up skill. I'll be working on my Paradigm and Raven as well, so don't worry about.

  11. Sol, every time you post something that you think is new, it is something that is already known, and recorded in my guide. does it matter? no, but its a little annoying.:razz: Raven's summon is plenty useless, even if it steals tension from masters. I think it sends the tension it steals from masters to Raven, but I'm not too certain about it. it is supposed to act primarily as a distraction against enemy servants, according to a guide that was translated. I feel that when Sin spams his humming sword in a fight, he can overwhelm an enemy master. get up to 3 of them out, and Sol will have an even harder time hitting you. it's a shame this summon is so underused. looking forward to some Sol vs Sol matches on Sunday, which is when I most likely will be able to get on. I think I'm gonna start picking up paradigm again, though I warn you, I'm pretty inadequate with him.
  12. I don't think the item one happened to me yet, but the health is a common one. you ever hit a ghost in the countdown of a round only to have it not change alignment, even after hitting it about 3 times? strange stuff. Kimera Cryin(Ky) Vs Hiropon Shock (Izuna) http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9664145 Triora Edit: question: ky and sin players like to overdrive your units in the beginning of a match. how do you prevent this? I don't like my mana getting wasted like that. Should I chase the enemy master? or do I have to just accept they're gonna get killed? I also tested out the nico video re-director, it works fine still.
  13. jp stopped playing you when you got decent? haha, what faggots, I deal with their skill and lag now because I have no choice, and I have accepted the fact that bullshit is unavoidable. it comes with the territory you can say. reversals not coming out and random teleportation is abundant!
  14. in 1 vs 1, he kicks my ass for free. but then again, everyone does, so what do I know?
  15. AdioHaddock's play style is annoying if your his partner in 2 vs 2, because his aggression gets him killed. I once beat him in a 2 vs 2 with Izuna. My Izuna is laughably bad. I love 2 vs 2 , because it let's me beat players who are 100x better than me. funny that you say that Ky has many ways to stop aggression, because I believe the only way to take him down is being aggressive and not letting him build up his army. I don't know, maybe it's because I play Sol so much, but I feel his army is nigh impenetrable in many cases when it's developed.
  16. what slash? be more specific. Ky players usually hit downed enemies with (L)x. it's a vertical slash that hit's opponents on the ground. I don't know if that was what you wanted to know or not. your not talking about holy brand are you? Kimera cryin(Ky) Vs makemakerou(Ra) http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9653198 (Round 1-3) http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9653483 (Round 4 & 5) Illiria2
  17. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm6925077 this is a rather unremarakable video of a 2 vs 2 following the actions of a Sol player. it's really nothing special unitl the last....30 seconds or so. GG2 wiki said that Sol was the best character for Suicides, and this video demonstrates why. I had no Idea you could own masterghosts that fast. the three set ups for when you start a match with sol are... Drill and queen (my favorite) Drill and Blade Drill and Gigant (I use this in 2 vs 2 only, or when I'm desperate.) taken from GG2 wiki
  18. haha, I did EVERYTHING wrong in that match. starting on the inside is what I always do, I don't know how to control the sides very well at all. should I run along side the outer ring and leave drills there? I also didn't release blades at all that match, because 1) they are insanely expensive and 2) everyone releases mobile units against Sol because the only other unit Sol has that is worth bringing out are blades. all I had on the field were drills, a queen, a firewheel and an engulfer. in retrospect, I may have released the queen too early, and I should have spamed more drills for map control...maybe, I don't know, I was a mess. there was a part in the first round were I was stuck what to do next, so I kind of just stood there staring at the minimap, it was hilarious (I was on the right side of the map when that happend) I released the queen early because I assumed he would spam gauntlet bodies early, but I was wrong about that too.
  19. Rocking that double post. Kimera(Ky) vs Paruga(KY) http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/1265649116 underworld hill 2 myep. these matches teaches you how to play on this map pretty well.
  20. aww man, that bad huh? and I totally don't agree with Kou on the Sol comment, though I agree about Ky. he's really well rounded. Edit: thinking about the video again, I was playing on a really basic level, shame on me. I'm no good!
  21. Kimera Cryin Vs. Boundary (Me) http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/1265563561 Underworld Hill 2 look at me get my ass kicked. Edit: someone translate this for me please: 今回の対戦相手は動画はじめて?の外国人様です。 日本の初心者よりウマかったです I'm not certain of the meaning of the second line using a translator.
  22. ugh, don't compare this to blazblue, especially since the example you used from it doesn't even fit the scenario. the general rule with character that can out-zone another character is to utilize that ability. this is more blatantly utilized in a 2 vs 2 or 2 vs 1 situation since one guy can engage the opponent up close, and the other can sit back and shoot, which usually grants better results than something like two sol's scrambling to catch an opponent (not that it's something to laugh in some cases, but you get the idea)
  23. don't characters who shoot projectiles constanly stay back and shoot projectile to support? that doesn't sound like anything out of the ordinary is you ask me. I mean, it's what they are meant to do.
  24. I can only play when I'm at my friend's house. I never post here when I'm on GG2. that's why I only play on the weekends. don't own a 360 but my copy of GG2 is mine alone.
  25. Don't play sol! he's so bad! playing him is insanely frustrating at times. INSANELY FRUSTRATING. theres also the laggy online matches that don't let you reversal your opponent, which is one of Sol's best features. I don't even try to reversal people any more online, it only comes out when I'm VERY lucky. Sol has his moments, but he's got it so bad it's crazy. what were you talking to kou about by the way? spamming 8y with raven is da best. is he attacking my units? 8y! is he attacking me and wiffing? 8y! is he back stepping? 8y! is he trying to run away? 8y! it's nice to actually have range after playing Sol and paradigm so much. Edit: kou talks if you send him some messages. the guy is almost never on when I play though.
