It's funny that back in the day you used to say "You play Jin"? lol If only Makoto's hit-box wasn't so funky, that and DPs da bes I'm gonna miss 2D guard crush, that thing after the opponent has used his Burst is what defines CSE Jin for me. Give him a reason to "respect" you. People do the things they do because they can get away with them from time to time, like me doing quick rise 5B into 3K and corner swap lol.

Toan's Lambda is better than both my Jin and Plat so I figured that he can body you even more than I can lol

Pfft, if you were to see some of the shit he does with his Tsubaki you'd probably take that back lol Errol loses because he plays crappy characters, then again, that can't be the only reason seeing as Jin isn't exactly a strong character himself.

Errol is a true soldier and I don't know how he does it. If it was me and I kept on getting bodied, I'd probably stop after the 10th loss in a FT10 with an opponent much stronger than me and try to figure out just exactly what I'm doing wrong. The thing is that Errol doesn't really have any glaringly bad habits nor does he make that many bad judgments. He calls out a lot of my shit and punishes accordingly and his Tsubaki and Makoto are probably some of the stronger ones I've played. I don't know why I win so much against him to be honest, he's actually a pretty decent player.

Well now you know, next time a Jin knocks you down with 214B/C and you have 50 Heat, you either snatch him off the air with AC or snatch him off the ground with 720. It won't work with A Buster though since Jin's 5A will beat you out of it, it has to be 720.

I can tell you one thing before I go to sleep. Don't roll backwards in the corner, I don't know why you do it but stahp. As hilarious as I thought it was whenever I scouted your wake-up with Miracle Jean and caught you rolling backwards, it's something that you must never, ever do lol.

I actually knew how you play since the first couple of times I played you back in the day. You still do the same thing: retreat, try to zone with j.C/2D and IAD forwards randomly. I'll go more in-depth through a PM tomorrow. I don't like any mirrors at all since I already know what my characters can do and how to deal with their own tools. The thing here is that it doesn't matter if I do mirrors or not since you play Jin and I know CSE Jin like the palm of my hand lol.

You can't even IAD backwards off 214B/C knockdown, AC WILL grab you out of it. Basically all you can do mid-screen once Tager has 50 Heat is knock him away with DP A and try to lame him out. Once you get him in the corner then that's when you can use some actual oki off DP C and 214A. Edit: Nope Dawn, 50 is way more than enough lol

Ok

You wanna play more games Dawn?

Nah, I tend to avoid Jin mirrors whenever I can. Fraud characters like Tager and Noel are always there to flip coins with me and ruin the fun. It gets so bad with Tager that you can't even attempt to attack him after wake up from a 214B/C knockdown: the frame advantage from 214B/C is so small that Tager has enough time to neutral tech and play 50/50 with AC and 720. The moment you jump, AC catches you. 720 beats 6B from 214B/C knockdown and pretty much everything else you throw at him in the ground. You could always DP C > RC on his wake-up but goddamn, that's a waste of meter if it gets blocked.

That Noel finally ended my win streak, fucking 4D/2D gambles

What a pain... Oh well, I guess I'll just wait until they clarify whether he can be unlocked through the game or if he needs to be unlocked through the DLC code only. I also want to wait until they give a specific, US release date. If it gets released in January, then I can wait but any longer than that is too much for my impatient self to bear.

Isn't that just an early unlock code like how they do it with Unlimited Characters or will people have to buy the actual character DLC if they didn't pre-order?

Well that's a relief, I really don't think I'd get any DLC unless Saya turns out to be a DLC character later down the road.

She can do away with the "grandma underwear" at least lol That aside, I've learned that you need to create a JP account in order to get DLC for the JP version. What about updates/patches? Do you need a JP account for those as well?

Huh, I never noticed until now. I guess even Rachel needs to show even a bit of skin besides her face lol.

If anything, just save the old matches that have notorious players playing in them such as Fenrichi or Eruo, anything else from 2012/Winter 2013 can be discarded IMO.

Have Rachel's armpits always been exposed like that? As for delay vs spikes, I would much rather prefer to have a spike and then have the match return to normal than have continuous delay. Sure you can work around the delay as far your own combos, pressure, and mix-up goes but the delay messes with your defensive timings such as pushing a button when you know that you're at frame advantage or when trying to AA someone or punish something. When the spike happens, you just have to pray that it doesn't happen during your own combo or when you're about to OH someone lol.

That should be enough of a reason for you to pick her up. 5A is godlike (hits crouchers, good speed and reach), 2B is godlike (good reach, low profiles under stuff), j.C is godlike (tons of active frames, good reach), TK Swallow leads to confusion and no item is a bad item. As long as you can use her normals and specials efficiently, the items are there as an added bonus.

As an anti-air or on a standing opponent? If it's the latter, I remember way back in the day during location tests that someone confirmed that 5C > Rising j.2C didn't work any more. It might work on Tager but who knows, we'll find out soon enough. If it's the former, I don't know, depends on what you wanna do. You get better oki off the AD j.2C > j.C route but you get a lot more damage off a relaunch > air combo.

Let's just say that Ragna and even slight lag are not a good combination for me to deal with. j.C was bodying all of my hit-boxes lol. Ice Wave through that shit, just like Tempest Dahlia lol. I just find it sad (hilarious) that Tsubaki's blades disappear on hit.

GGs Crazy_Ape and High_Spin

Nah, tomorrow's fine, my PS3 isn't on either lol
