I can understand where you're coming from in that respect. Have a safe trip. No they didn't I've reiterated this before. First of all Hakumen has by far the most powerful counter/parry system. EVER. In order for BB to be more; Offensive, faster paced, and rushdown oriented. Which I find it is, they needed adjust the "defensive character" of the game. If his counters worked the same then he would be way too powerful since he would essentially shut down the offense of certain characters, like Ragna. He still has powerful defensive options but, he has more offensive options to replace the defensive ones he lost. Like I said compare AC Baiken to CP Hakumen and you'll see the Baiken has more options more offensive and pressure tools than Hakumen and still commands just as much respect on defense. Yes, thank you. All of this. I am looking forward to CP because I feel it's going in the right direction in order to not be under the shadow of GG, while matching up to it. But I am looking forward to the update to CP as well. Yes exactly my thoughts. That's the wrong way of looking at a game then. Agreed. or at least WiiGolf or Dance Dance Revolution exactly lol. MOntreal NEEDS more fabulousness. Nothing to dissect here. Yes there's more wacky mechanics like OD (which every characters has, some more useful than others). But they're not mind-numbingly abusable. And outside of that every character got some much needed adjustments. Though I feel that if they can give the bonus proration (or wtv it's called) to Renka and reducing the potency of Hakumen's OD, would be a huge improvement. Since, Zantetsu is his main damaging combo starter, which limits his offense. Exactly, if you were to compare Ino to Rachel, Ino has a greater variety of mixup at her disposal which she gets in close on you after making you block one of her projectiles or knocking you down. She doesn't just use one IOH and they have to guess how long you'll do it for, she has a very scary high-low mixup and grab game. OH NOESS... NOT THE FABULOUSNESS I see what you did there. What's wrong with that? CT's combo system (at least for Hakumen) was the most limited by far, and it was the slowest version of BB as well. CT is actually one of the reasons why it has had such a bad rep all these years. Dumb-auto-pilot zoning top tiers and shitty close range fighters with a slow game speed and way too easy combos in proportion to the damage. And it doesn't help that the game is not made by Capcom and is anime, aka GAYYYYYY. That's a bit harsh. But I feel that CP is the first step in BB is coming into it's own light and out of the shadows of GG, which is extremely hard to do. Considering GG's legacy it has left behind, and bringing back as well. I don't see what the problem is with the discussion that's taking place. I always enjoy other people's opinions when hearing something sucks. I mean we all universally agree Xbox1 sucks afterall :p It is the next best thing, and I do feel the game will develop into it's own thing very soon. It's not quite there yet with CP, but it's certainly the right in the right direction. I'd hate for BB to simply be GG with different sprites and characters I was the one who brought up this discussion and was away all day unable to read the posts. But if this discussion is irritating too many people then I guess it should be dropped. Also Man of Steel was dope, it was the Superman movie anyone could wish for. Kirbster, you never told me what you thought of Iron Man 3.

Skip to 3:48, what are your thoughts on this minna-san? I personally enjoyed BB more as the iterations have gone on, since they were figuring out the direction they wanted to head with the series.

I guess my skimming skills for texts needs some improvements lol. Thanks.

What does RA mean?

Yea it's true, he can't tear people's faces off as easily, at least in my opinion, neither can Azrael. Yes Azrael can deal substantial more damage than Ragna, but he loses more than huim when the opponent bursts from weakpoint hits, and Ragna more stable pressure on the entire cast than Azrael does. I'd personally put Ragna at A from what I've seen.

I pretty much agree with this except I'd put Hazama Jin and Hakumen as S+ and Tao,Valk, Litchi as S and Ragna along the lines of Azrael. He's far from average from what I can see and can break 4k with 50 meter. And Blood Kain Idea now gives him substantially more health 2k-3k back when down to 15% health and deals a solid 5k to the opponent? If Carl is still seemingly a good character then why do people say he sucks so much?

I can't even keep up with this thread anymore...

What on earth is going on in this thread?

Yea GGs Nolan, sadly China AC version is the only playable online stage lol. You're going to have to be more assertive with Order-Sol since I basically play like Sol except I have more ranged tools. Dat Slayer matchup though...

Haven't played him in a while :P But I wasn't just posting that for Dai either. Or maybe I'm still missing your point. :o

I don't really play 3d fighters though I heard the game is good. let me know if you're serious. ??? AKA STOP DROPPING COMBOS Combos are very important not for swag or to look cool, but to capitalize on your opponent''s mistakes. Newer gen players either over emphasize the importance of combos, aka learning all these swaged out combos yet who have such shit neutral games that they can't get the right hit to even start those combos and end up losing in the neutral game. Which is why I only really use the most basic of optimizable combos when you watch me play. Keep combos simple optimized and comfortable for you you. if your combos aren't comfortable to you, MAKE them comfortable for you. By rehearsing them off; opponent's blockstrings, off random hits, in different positions on the screen and etc. Dropping combos keep you from capitalizing on your opponent's mistakes, and the more you drop the more chances they have to beat you.

The more offensive decisions you make the more liekly you are to make a mistake. Less proactive choices less likely to make mistakes. You neutral game is imperative to winning against a good grappler player. I find compared to about 2 years ago or so, the scene has become stable in terms of skill level. I can't say anyone at this point who has been playing their characters seriously for at least a year is honestly free. Yes there are exceptional players like kirbster, but even he still loses from time to time. Unlike two years ago where he'd go on 20+ game winstreaks in arcade mode. I don't really like bringing up names with regards to skill levels, so I hope no one is offended. Anyways, I'm a firm believer in sharing knowledge and resources with regards to these games. Those of you who complain about the never ending sadness that Brice and Brian bring to your lives whenever you face them in either BB or GG should read this. I find this post very informative and has really helped me develop my neutral game even better than what it was before, which I feel is my strongest tool in a match personally. I also posted this in the Hakumen forums for discussion. I also have no reason at the moment to get the PS4, but I feel Sony did a good job. And Microsoft is fucking up right now. I will eventually get the PS3 but right now my ps3 is making me happy and so is my 360

thanks eh-sama

??? I know a few friends who want to get rid of their older ps3's. I'm so happy I have a ps3 already lol. Now I'm wondering if I should get both the JP and the NA version of this game on ps3 lol. What IS Microsoft doing?!

That's one person. I mean Rachel is far from bad, but she hasn't done anything exceptional as a character in high level play. I'd find it easier to believe Azrael is s-tier than Rachel. She's more of a a/b tier in my eyes.

This made me laugh. I've never seen such an openly trolling video by a company this big before. Jon isn't this your game series?

It WAS on the playstation channel, so I doubt we'd see it. But I didn't see anything for Blazblue on xbox's official youtube channel, so... I intended to buy for both of my systems. But I'm not sure what direction Microsoft is heading at the moment.

I just figured this should be posted since I saw on the playstation channel.

The idea we technically saw a "western" trailer for the game means localization is coming sooner. Which is the important thing, hence why I posted it on DL. Frankly I'm very happy about the trailer.

I'm gamed out lol, at least for another week. I don't feel like playing GG lol. EDIT: I'm also hella broke sie I was tapping into my loans money for UMAD. I commented on the video. Also, Sony KILLED E3 and shat on Microsoft and #XboxDone, according to Daniel.

So like filler/military academy stuff?

Lol. And what is the meaning of this "Remix Heart" mange, is it canonical, is there an actual purpose to it, is there violence? Cus there seems to be a lot of hype surrounding it lately.

What you're asking is kinda nebulous, I assume you mean on ok after a successful 2d in a ground combo, rather then "what can I combo off a successful raw 2d?". For the later, the best thign you can go for with ky since his has a bad hitbox low to the ground so he can't combos off a 2d like most characters with a dp, like Sol. So if you have 25% meter, go for lightning sphere, 2d>FB lightning sphere, is actually ky's most damaging combo that's the most accessible it can take off like 1/3 of an opponent's lifebar depending on how high their damage modifier is. If you mean oki pressure/mixup after a 2d and then CSE on their wakeup. Then I'll say to start checking out eh-sama's Ky thread. It covers everything including mixup. But Ky is a character that has minimal mixup tools, his main aim is to grab the opponent x n. That's the only thing he really can do, which is why he gets tremendous damage now in AC+R off grabs in the corner. Fortunately unlike BB/P4U, grabs are nigh impossible to tech and they have an insanely fast startup. SO doing thigns like 2p>grab is very effective. But Ky isn't limited to use CSE for oki pressure. He also has jd/jFBd also known as "star oki" which if the opponent tries to mash out of it (unless they have a dp) or blocks the wrong way (if you know how to cross up with it) can also lead to really good damage. jFBd can lead into a grab or if you can tk it, you can go into ain or machaboo's pressure. Here's a bit of what eh-sama posts in his Ky thread: Also if you have questions post it in his thread since it's the most active right now.

GGs everyone, I really had a good time. >Doesn't place in BB >Doesn't place in GG >Gets 3rd in Gundam but doesn't even play the game lolwut? I really need to work on playing matchups for characters no one plays lol. I need to figure something out, but thanks for the advice shotokon about playing Ky thursday. Roldy I WILL consume your bishounen soul, your fate is inevitable. We need more free-health-care-combos sarcasm-mixup game and Pedro needs to stop dropping his Jean Chrétien hit confirm combos lol. I wish I could've stayed longer for some more GG. But oh well my matches with Omar, Roldy, and Louis were dope.
