How about getting directly over her and doing j.2d?

I can imagine. Predicting Litchi's 2c can be advantageous, Arakune is still pretty good at conditioning, he can bait her so he can land a CH jd, which should go right in a 5d at the right height, wouldn't it? If so, it can bounce into a ja > jc > jd, for 100 curse. Can you test that kou?

I thought he played Hazama.... Bang really just needs to have his proration values messed around with.

Okay!, sorry for being so late, but I have news. I called up to the city of Dearborn, and asked about their rec centers. We will not meet up there, not just for casuals at least. The smallest room they have can hold from 16 to 20 people and costs 25 dollars an hour to rent out. We could host a mini tourney there, just to have enough cash to rent it out for a couple hours. But that's simply a variable, we can't do anything until enough people comes and pays venue so we can PAY for the room. And that might not happen. The room cost 25 dollars an hour, lets be realistic, we can't do everything for just one hour, 2 at the most with financial restrictions. So that's 50 bucks. Tourneys often cost 5 bucks to get in and 5 to participate, so we'll need 10 people to enter this tourney, since the money to get it is the money we're paying to rent the place out. If we bring 2 or 3 FULL sets (console, game, tv), we can have time to do the tourney, and have some casuals and get to know each other, we can do a 3/5 rounds, 2/5 matches and all the standard rules. So I need the confirmation of at the least 8 people, since I'm participating and I'm dragging Axis with me. We can cap at 10 (12), but no bigger, I know the more the merrier, but too many and we may not be able to reach the 2 hour time limit, if we can score 15 people, then that's an extra hour to rent out, and more spoils to the winners, but that's a best case scenario. So, I need 8 people at the least to give me their serious word that they can make it. It's a Dearborn rec center near the senior area, for an address, you can call up to - 313 - 943 - 2381 Fingers crossed.

From what I've seen Litchi isn't that bad as long as you're on the offensive. If you continue pressure on her, she can't do much, now Tsubame prorates like hell and is completely techable, so there isn't much risk there, stay in her face, keep your mixups and teleports fresh. If you're mid screen, then there is much to worry, if your full screen, you're at a clear disadvantage, telling by the videos, Arakune is safest right next to her. Once you get close, you can do a lot, but be careful, it only takes 3 combos max to finish Arakune off, and if he's in the corner, he's fucked against Litchi's Great Wheel oki. So, it's obviously wiser than ever to stay away from the corner. It's be offensive or die. But that's just my theory fighter.

So any thoughts about Barrier blocking? I recalled this was one of the key methods of getting Ragna out of your face in CT, and on good reflexes it give you options vs Bang's pressure.

We can start with ideas and concepts. I have my own, but I'm still thinking them over, I'd like to hear some others.

I thought the free version was....Free Play..

This idea just came suddenly, so forgive my over enthusiasm, should this thread require locking (even until console release) then so be is. *don't take the history or reference too seriously, it's the symbolism that's the matter* Origin Apollyon is a beast (actually and angel ) in the Book of Revelations in the Bible, after the rapture takes place. Apollyon summons deadly (kinda), bug-like, strange locust to torment people who weren't of God. They were to be tortured for 5 months and in that time span, there were immortal, in the regard that they could not die, even if they tried to commit suicide. He was also known to be the king of the bottomless pit. His name is Greek for "The Destroyer". Reference/symbolism If it's not very obvious to you, Apollyon unleashed bugs to torment people, like a certain spider we all know and love. ? It's even better since the bugs are huge. And with that I want to introduce Project "Destroyer", this was gonna be a combo movie that I had planned by myself once CS hit console, and I got good enough at it to make a combo movie, but I want to try my hand at a community effort, as I sort of did with the Lambda forums and the Lamb Chop "song that never ends" concept. There aren't any real details or guidelines right now, since the idea was recently sparked, music and editing, and length is all unknown right now. I'm sure a lot of people will think that this is a bit too early, and I agree and disagree. Again, should this thread lock for such or otherwise reasons, I welcome it. It is a bit early, but that time can be used to think up concepts, like music, length, nico uploads, main contributors, editing transitions, etc, not to mention that some people have access to the Arcade version, we can get some clips there too of some action. Since it is a group decision, anything is subject to change, even the project name and reference, I can understand why some people really can't suspend their disbelief to accept it, but you can't deny that it's a cool and fitting origin to base this off of. I do have one guideline that I don't really think online replays will be any good and if possible, get a live recording or actual matches or training mode flash work. How about it? Anyone interested?

We need a combo movie....

Well, learning more than one character is fun, opens up some options, have a bit more fun, accumulate more knowledge, if you have time to, I think you should know at least 2 characters. But learning the character is half the fight, anyone can spend a few hours in training mode, but that only lets you know of they damage and what not. Knowing how Arakune pulls off a 6c loop isn't going to help you avoid the setups, it's just going to allow you to know how he can do it. That said, when you learn a character, you must learn their match ups, this is where the universal knowledge of knowing multiple characters come in.

Nnnnope, I'll try again tomorrow.
