You completely ignored what I said about zoning. The fact is, Litchi doesn't have to close the gap, because her Matenbou gives her massive range. She can just zone the hell out of you, and gets combos off of her zoning hits. Bang's zoning with needles is good for stuffing opponents approaches and covering Bang's approach, but it doesn't lead into his combo game like Litchi's zoning, and he only has twelve needles. Bang still has to get close and mix it up, which is something Litchi doesn't necessarily have to do.The reason Bang is better is because off of any random hit, a hit which he is nearly 100% guaranteed to get on you, he gets his oki. After 1-2 BnBs, he has meter, so his combos do a nice extra 2k. All well and good. The point is his mixup game is too ridiculous that once you're in the corner, you're not getting out.
Yes, Litchi's corner oki is crazy and she can get ridiculous combos off of counter hits, but the fact is that she never shuts you down before then. Litchi has to get in to hit you, and most Litchi plays either play the counterhit fishing game or will try to poke you/stick toss at you. It is during this time that Litchi has nothing on you. You can zone her, bait pokes, air throw, or pressure her before she can. Bang eliminates this possibility, as he is faster than everyone AND has nails to shut down their retreats/hitconfirm at all times.
You're basically saying "Well, Bang may have insane pressure options and oki, but when Litchi hits it does even more damage!" By that logic, Arakune would be the best character since, if you get hit by say...FC 5C/2C, you eat 100% curse and curse oki, so you always lose. Litchi has a super solid game, and her CHs are annoying as hell, but it is a combination of Bang's speed, move priority, combo damage and stupid good oki that make him the best. This man needs 0 meter to have a near 100% chance of doing at least 2k to you, or worse - 3.5k with oki in the corner. Life sucks versus Bang, it really does.
BTW: CS is way more balanced (yes, even with Bang) and (imo) more fun than CT![]()
Litchi's pokes are actually a lot less safe than you might think. If a Litchi uses the charge up stick poke (high/low), the recovery is really long, almost any character can punish it. Even my slow-as-butt Arakune can punish her, so it's not a huge concern unless she mindgames you into doing something dumb.You completely ignored what I said about zoning.

Don't wet your panties, Noel.Dubbleyou tee eff!
You didn't even get the most silly match in that series. The ending to that series was stupid. Air grab -> Round over. Fio showcases some of the silliest things Litchi has there.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DM6Ou8ktyQ
Bang can't do that man. He has the damage but not the oki.
You mean this?You didn't even get the most silly match in that series. The ending to that series was stupid. Air grab -> Round over. Fio showcases some of the silliest things Litchi has there.
There's not even gameplay of Valkenhayn. And as I recall, he's scheduled before Platina.Is there any gameplay of Platina?
Are you... dumb?Neither is Noel...
Are you... blind?Are you... dumb?
Tager is such a boss that he pulls your *** up off the ground after every combo.No way, people only think Litchi is best because she didn't change much. Tager is the best charecter now. I mean, his unavoidable giga buster, I mean, come on![]()
Nor Rachey-woo. The only flatty is little Platty.Neither is Noel...
The English VAs in BB kick ***.Wait
ENG VA actually good?

She punches you into the moon and destroys it.
There's a video but I'm too lazy to find the link.
Added for accuracy.This move doesn't compare to Seichusen Godanzuki.
