that match-up chart is insane, who the shit made it?

I guess I got lucky. For whatever reason I got so many disconnects, it was only in comparison to the 13 matches I'd played and went away around 40. I'm sorry if you have to deal with the same crap =/

characters with good okizeme that force blocking are going to melt through everyone in ranked because no one knows how to just block the number of people I hit with fullscreen killrush on their wake-up is pretty staggering

dang linear, you are actually quite good at this game already :o @omni I wish I saw your message earlier, I have to go to kung fu class now :/

after 30-40 matches my red shit FINALLY went away, thank god I played a yu in rank that literally DP'd after every knockdown, been a while since I saw someone so committed. I got to practice all sorts of DP safe options, lol.

Is that glitch that randomly gives you billions of disconnects and labels you as red forever from Blazblue in this game too? Because I finished 13 matches and my name randomly turned red. Now everyone avoids me. God damnit.

Nah it was completely terrible, uncomboable without counter, terrible hit box, unsafe on block, lost match at evo because i used it once in neutral, completely fucking terrible -_-

there's only wall stick now? that's interesting.

it's kinda nice from the perspective that it's sometimes not at all obvious why SMP combos suddenly drop without looking at frame data. it's a hidden system mechanic and making it more apparent is nice.

I will say that CS2 Noel's loctest changes also looked like mostly a bunch of nerfs and that obviously turned out to not be the case. with that said, it still looks like a bunch of stupid nerfs to an already bad character. Maybe it's hidden in the frame data. I wonder if the new shooting star wall bounces from midscreen like the old 236AD?

it's mostly a matter of location. reptar lives in south georgia, ivysaur in north georgia, bears are scary moved to a different state. It may not be just me though.

I live about a half hour south on 85 if you want to come by. I'm available Sunday afternoon and maybe Tuesday.

I was being facetious if you couldn't tell lol

I'm probably going to attend this. I'll have to make sure my boyfriend's okay with coming, he's disliking how much I've been traveling without him. xP But I'm looking forward to BB and Persona!

request an invite for our facebook group, it'll be easier to keep in touch: http://www.facebook.com/groups/343167709045450/ I know for a fact there are other people in columbus you can play with, I have two friends that live there. You could probably even carpool with them when they decide to come up and visit me :3 I added you to the group and posted your event there. I will definitely go to it and tell others about it. I kinda want to bring Blazblue too if that's cool =P

shoutouts to TheBiter keeping me from my top 8 glory shoutouts to valkenhyn being dumb shoutouts to Spark having godlike defense, I'm not used to people blocking me O_O shoutouts to all the people I met and friends I made. Evo was incredibly fun. I'll go again next year regardless of what's an official tourney and what's not. huey's a top player, he doesn't have time for friends

you live in Georgia and don't know any of us? We meet up at Georgia Tech every Friday during the school year for casuals, have been for like two years

Makoto doesn't have enough SMP moves to have an SMP combo. I experimented for a while but she only has 5D LV3 (others have none), jD LV3 (others have none), 2D, 2C, comet cannon + break shot, lightning arrow (has to fatal counter or it's worthless), and shooting star. So 7 total. And if she uses any of them more than once, the combo instantly ends. Compare this to Noel who has SMP on EVERY SINGLE DRIVE, making it incredibly easy for her to take advantage of the glitch. In preparation for Evo, I've done some other experimenting. Let me know of what y'all think of this theorycrafting: After connecting a normal BNB, end it with jD LV3 > walk forward very slightly > 2D LV1 > Hold up to jump > Falling jC. It's a bit convoluted but it can counter a lot of situations. MATH - Jump + falling jC is a total of 43 frames (4 startup, 39 airtime), plus I think jC has some unaccounted landing recovery. 2D LV1 has 45 untechable frames, so hitting on the first possible frame means that they tech at frame 9 of your jump. Neutral tech recovers after 32 frames, which leaves them at frame 41. There's SOME frames unaccounted for here that's not listed in frame data - I'm guessing there's some inherent hitstop on makoto from connecting with drive - because they DEFINITELY can input stuff long before then. I've tested vs. Ragna's DP (7 startup) and Makoto's DP (9) frames, Ragna will hit while makoto will get blocked. So to be conservative, they basically recover on frame 35. * Emergency tech - if you hold back and their DP is slower than 8 frames start-up, you will block it and can punish. This forces them to deal with mix-up. * no emergency tech, roll tech OR quick tech - It doesn't matter what they choose, when spaced properly the jC will hit them out of it and you can hit confirm with 5B > stuff. The optimal option select looks something like, falling j4C > pause while holding back > 5B. The pause accounts for lack of hitstop if it misses from something invulnerable. The result is stopping the majority of DPs on emergency tech and auto-scooping roll and quick techs. Nifty! * doing nothing - if they still haven't moved by the time you land, 2B will pick them up while resetting the combo. The above option select doesn't work here. * no emergency tech, then neutral tech - this is the best universal choice to counter this setup. There isn't an option select to stop it but at least you're no worse off than you would be otherwise.

there were incredibly good chipp, anji and axl players on stream when I watched. all of their new stuff looked really cool. I can't wait for the release.

Welcome to the Dustloop relationship thread. Remember: two fives do not equal a ten!

that's right, blazblue's still alive!!! :3 on topic, I signed the petition. I might actually give a shit about MLG if they did this, the game looks really good.

still don't believe you also, I only have an xbox but I wouldn't play online anyway... I can't stand it anymore. last time I tried playing against someone with a 4 bar connection and got unplayable lag, I give up on the shitty online play. I'm too polite to hit on anyone in person... maybe if you caught me on saturday night ROFL and straight men only talk about making gifs of sherryjenix stepping out of the pool in a bikini at CEO

he was playing marvel at CEO http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJBOcJx58zo he plays second

LOL I didn't expect such funny response. don't remember the rachel player but agreed on the other two. also, kid viper is adorable. personally, I think Neo is super hot. i dig macho-looking guys.

so... if there's going to be a 3v3 team tournament... anyone want to partner with me? :3
