Rachel vs Haku is kind of even in EX I'd say. The way I see it, both characters are able to exploit the other's weaknesses, lol. Haku is dumb as fuck in CP (lol 5k off Enma), but the fact that we can now block his counter is gonna help our corner oki a bit. When Haku has stars, just be careful not to press buttons for no reason, always be wary of kishuu (seriously fuck that move, it beats everything we have) and j.c, and don't summon predictably. Another thing that helps is that we can use j.b as an instant overhead on him, which is better damage than j.a. Nu and Mu are still gonna be an uphill battle because of the character designs, and Bang... well I haven't seen much of him in CP yet. Hazama is still hard too, but at least we can IOH him now. As for that whore Litchi... I don't understand how anyone can think it's not that bad. She outspaces Rachel in every way. If you notice, what all of Rachel's bad matchups have in common is that those characters all have something that can prevent Rachel from using pumpkin, which she needs to be effective. Swords, lasers, chains, staffs, nails... too easy to make us block at any time, and our normals are not really reliable for footsies.

I've seen CH 6b followed by IAD j.b into combo, but like once or twice. The top japanese players almost nevet hit confirm iy so I'm thinking it's not that easy... Maybe you have to buffer jump cancel even if you don't know if it'll connect to be sure to confirm if you do get the CH.

Lol nah man, that's not what I said. You're focusing too much on the tiers. Basically she's had a bunch of stupid nerfs which I feel are compensated by her buffs, so it kinda evens out. And she's not even comparable to CT Rachel, that character was stupiddddd @Sam : oh yeah that's gdlk too, I forgot. @Zoular : nope, that would be way too strong lol. Basically j.a is instant but the damage off it is bad, which makes it pretty fair.

At first I felt like she was nerfed for no reason, but as time went by and players discovered her new stuff, I now feel like she's pretty much as strong as in EX, with the potential to be even better. Instead of simply comparing tier list positions, look at her changes. Here are the most important ones in my opinion : Nerfs : -CH lobelias pretty impossible to combo from except in a few situations. This is my biggest complaint -slight damage nerf overall -George recovery is ass -cat chair is even more shit -it seems almost impossible, or at least really hard to combo from CH 6b midscreen Buffs : -she can get consistent good damage off ANY hit now thanks to the new 6a, 4b and 236a, plus the increased gravity -instant overhead works on everyone -combo into dash 5b 5cc works on everyone (either Rachel has less pushback on her normals or 5cc hitbox was buffed). This is really good after a fuzzy guard setup -lotus gives crazy corner carry. It has a lot of untapped potential too for damage and zoning -lobelias bouncing off the corner is gdlk, and so is the new j.236a trajectory -also, you almost always have a pole planted after a corner combo for TK sword iris pressure Off the top of my head these are the changes that matter the most. So take that as you will!

Sorry DerQ but here's the cold hard truth : you're not immigrant enough for KOF. Got a lot of hard work ahead of you buddy.

If you could consistently do this to switch sides it would be awesome

I watched your Winter Brawl top 4 matches... Your execution is definitely gdlk, and your combos are flashy as hell lol. @Rele : I'm putting words in his mouth but that was just netplay casuals, might as well fuck around.

Oh god not being able to play makes me wanna play so much lol. I cherish every match I have! Also, not sure I'll be able to make it on Sunday Brice, j'ai un exam le lendemain... et le jour d'après... et le jour d'après... ET LE JOUR D'APRÈS

Jvais essayer de squeeze in une ou deux games contre toi si possible lol

It's the creepiest compliment I've ever read

I'm more sad to see that wheel oki is still in...

I think he's using the horizontal lotus because it's more useful in neutral with projectiles and for corner carry. Lotus activation looks like it can be a decent alternative to sword iris for annoying the opponent and preventing them from coming at you...

Yeah that's lotus experimenting lol. Notice how he uses 5d to try to get the lvl2 in that corner overdrive combo. Also he manages to land lvl2 j.2c here... so weird

This is N-O. Quite a bit of Lotus experimenting in this.

This is why I have trouble bringing myself to watch your netplay matches TD... I think I'm somewhat racist towards netplay itself lol. I hate it so much.

If it's not hipster, it's not for Brice.

Yo Bibi, money match at Beerblue Platinum vs stick Hakumen for which is the best Zelda game, OoT or ALttP

Obvious troll is obvious. On another note, scrubs who had trouble with the water temple shouldn't be allowed to post in this thread.

You guys are all fags, OoT is gdlk Though ALttP is just as good. It holds a special place in my heart because I actually had a French version of the game when I was like 7 or 8, so I could enjoy the story since I didn't speak a word of English back then lol. Probably my fondest gaming memory.

I still have some DBZ drawings I made when I was in 3rd grade lol.

Xiao Xiao is gdlk, I actually watched them a few weeks back again and it was still as impressive as 10 years ago. Also I love my new option select

I will be taking care of your bodies tonight people, so prepare them well.

Bonne fête le rival. J'espère que 2013 seras une année où tu seras encore free to Rachel :D

It does but barely anything. I've seen a lotus kill once though lol.

Kimochi, sensei.
