just accept it TD rachels going to need a walker soon

He will just laugh because he knows your fist just has more money in it.

I'm pretty sure that's a problem all Haku players have with Jin. dat throw reflex If you want to try and hit him out of 6B, don't use 2A. It will lose in most cases; go for 5A at least.

What I thought was that the Prime Field Device was just this machine thing, and then when it met Amaterasu it came to life and became self aware.

He got you with some Jin resets towards the end. A lot of Jins like to freeze you in the corner and then go for resets with IAD j.2C or empty IAD into low/throw. So it's better to block high by default in that situation and switch to low once he lands.

I wonder how long before we see the original Prime Field Device in BlazBlue. It is almost a waste not to have it appear at some point.

I still don't understand how Take Mikazuchi firing at the Cauldron resets time. Couldn't they just do that without firing it? And if they're going to wipe the timeline out anyway, what difference does it make what happens in the present. Maybe firing it causes Amaterasu to intervene and reset the timeline herself, since she interferes in CP when things go bad.

The way Zedar said it, stuff that comes from the Boundary or deals with the Boundary has no time. Once the Black Beast is created by Ragna and Nu it would still be hanging out near the Cauldron, regardless of what the current time is. So Takamagahara shifts time back to when the Black Beast is supposed to appear so the Six Heroes can defeat it like they're supposed to.

Ah. So it's not that the Black Beast goes back into the past, so much as they change everything around the Black Beast so it's the past when it's formed.

you mean tager A tier

Well, from your explanations it sounds like no actual clear explanation was ever offered. Because that doesn't really clarify anything lul What does it mean by Black Beast appearing again? In the present time? But Nu and Ragna go BACK in time. And resetting the time loop doesn't change that, they still appear as the Black Beast in the past and destroy half the world.

tager A tier what has blazblue become

But the Black Beast was Ragna and Nu going back in time. What does the Cauldron getting blasted have to do with it? And how does that trigger the time loop? I don't get how Take Mikazuchi getting fired = time loop happening. And you're saying Takamagahara was trying to do the same thing the Imperator was?

Nobody can escape my All Seeing Eye.

There's like 15 Hazama threads in there. What about 2B canceled into Gurren? It's just 16f blockstun into Gurren's startup? So... 16 - 14, 2 frames leftover. So 2B > Gurren is gapless?

They also mentioned the possibility of the time loops returning somewhere in CP. I forget where. But that made me think about the time loops again. The time loops were done by Takamagahara: for what purpose? Did they want Noel too? If not, why didn't they just reset the time loops again. Also what was the point of using Take Mikazuchi after the loop was broken. I think it was used at the end of each failed loop too?

I figured Sans would jump in here and lay down some knowledge, but I guess I'll have to do it. For now I'll just say don't use 4C. It just will get you counterhit. If he does Blood Scythe just 5D it. The matchup is like Street Fighter. You play footsies. Whoever makes a mistake twice loses. Also don't be afraid to look at the older matchup threads: http://www.dustloop.com/forums/index.php?/topic/4725-cse-hakumen-vs-ragna/ The matchup is pretty much still the same. Just account for stuff like 6D being useless.

So I just noticed. Why are the Hazama matchup threads in our archives.

Ah, so after that there can't be any more resets or time loops? The Ragna thing is because until Ragna went back in time during CP, the past was in a state of flux. It was basically a black box, so the timeline could be rearranged. Once he closed the loop by going back, everything had been set in stone. Although wait. When Rachel is protecting Amaterasu she says the important thing is that Amaterasu's data can be used to restore the world or something.

But why didn't she rewrite the story again after the Imperator liquidated half the world?

So the Imperator's intervention is only to make people irritable? I figured they would use it for more direct intervention than just "Ragna feels grumpy today, let's hope something happens. popcorn.gif" And also why does Amaterasu care about those conflicts anyway? What is the condition that is setting her off?

GGs to Tectal, my body was not ready.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-qHgiJ7-Q0 Anyone have any idea what they're talking about in the ending? I don't remember Terumi trying to do any phenomena intervention.

Differs how?

Yeah, we already have subforums for these. Just go ask in the various subforums or investigate the combo threads.
