mAc Chaos

lol I randomly click one of those YouTube videos to see Axis' Tager since it's been so long since I've seen it at all, and I hear "THIS IS FOR MAC CHAOS." Awesome. :p For the record, I started using gold before everybody else. I set the TREND. Also the Sword of Doom level is the best. Also why did you just run into that Spark Bolt Shin.

So gold bursts are unchanged? I know we can only use 2D in Extend to punish one of the bursts. Maybe both.

We don't have happy new years, only grim seriousness. I think you can't use counters to punish bursts either.

From that video it looks like just saying fuck it and going for jump outs against pressure as much as possible is a good idea. Considering it worked better than my attempts to block it out, I might as well try it. He was also way more tame under your pressure than when I played him. Normally I touch him and he goes nuts.

Tao's AAs are spammable. She can just run up and hit 6AAAAAAAA until it hits. I think Valk's mixup is strong, but if you can wait it out or find an opening you can actually have a chance to do something. With Tao it just never ends. And as far as being more aggressive, Tao thrives on having you throw out moves and getting you hit. Not sure what else you can do though aside from be super super cautious but that'll just get you timed out or hit anyway.

Nah, just recording is fine. There's a lot of good matches I have that I think, "Damn, if only I could've saved it." I'm just not sure if I need the card or some adapters or something to run it through the computer or what. The current card I have lets me capture stuff but you can't really play and capture at the same time. I hook my 360 up to the computer and then it records through the cables. I can then view what's going on the screen on the computer, but it lags like 2 seconds behind.

OK. That's what I thought.

So you can hook it up to the computer and record matches and play at the same time, and it doesn't lag?

This is a bit of a silly question, but I have to make sure. You can backdash to avoid meaties, right? It's frame 1 invincible? I have a friend who keeps trying to backdash on wake up and gets blown up for it, but I'm pretty sure he's just timing it wrong. Same with 360A on wakeup, but I know that doesn't have any invincibility on startup until frame 3.

All of this is pretty much true. I think Valk is easier though. I'm not sure how effective Hotaru is either since if you land a hit while doing air footsies, it's not like you can really capitalize on it. Unless the purpose is just to make her scared or something... but is that worth two stars? She'd probably just dodge it and rape you.

I could see Ragna side stepping a sword and continuing running after Lambda.

What kind of setup do you guys use to record offline matches? HOW DO I DO THIS.

Damn. 2A > 2A shouldn't be anti jump though, 2A isn't air unblockable is it? And it's not a low.

Well, I always thought BB had a similar teching system to Melee. Same with the barrier blocking and airdashes and double jumps.

Until you find out what's under the makeup.

Interesting. What exactly goes into the process of making a mod? Is it just based on endorsements, or player skill, or what?

Since you have the frame data for 6A I'm guessing you have your hands on Extend. How do you think his pressure changes from CS2 to Extend, if any? I mean, 6A isn't as useful, so that means we should change up what we do to accommodate it, even if it's just not to use it. But maybe there's some good changes that would make some other moves more useful. Maybe 6A can serve as an anti jump tool in pressure now since it's an AA? There's always 2B though.

Did you guys get to see how the team mode works?

As far as AAing Hotaru goes, there's two ways to do it. The first is to use a move whose hurtbox is low enough that it dodges the actual move, and has long active frames, like Nu's 2C. That way you dodge the move and the move lasts long enough to beat Hotaru's invincibility. The other is to use an AA like Ragna's 6A late enough that you catch Hotaru through the back end of the invincibility and hit them out of the recovery. If you do it too early you'll either get CH or both moves will whiff. Of course, if the Hakumen expects you to do an AA, which isn't exactly unheard of, then they can delay their Hotaru too.

I look at information for every matchup from both sides. Just curiosity. I mostly rely on actual playing and experience though, I don't really remember stuff I read days or hours beforehand on the forums when I'm in the heat of a match. I doubt things have changed that much though, aside from combos. Probably slightly in terms of the neutral game and blockstrings since Noel's D moves have more invincibility again, if I remember correctly. I actually had an easier time against Luna in CS2.

argh why must they continue raping this move how worth it in pressure do you think it is now?
