Persona 4 Arena Ultimax: Out in NA, It's Time You Burn That Dread

[Teczer0]

One of those days where I probably shouldn't have picked up the stick sigh.

Good stuff Minato, sorry about the way I played. Getting DP'd by Liz literally just made me want to not play.

Man theres too many things to think about at all times >_>

 

[Minato]

Oh well, I understand about that DP over netplay.

Was hoping that more people would log on, but at least I got in a lot of matches.
Gonna be studying everyday for my finals, so I won't be making lobbies until mid-December most likely.

Afterwards, I'll try to train up for SCR, so I'll be playing catch up.

 

[The Fail Tracer]

Hey guys, just popping in to see how many others have P4G, and to say that I'm loving the Golden a LOT. They added so much and, in my opinion, gave more of a reason to want to play it way more.

Atlus also became EVEN MORE awesome in my eyes just because of that hiimdaisy "Fsteak" reference.

By the way, if anyone who may have P4G sees "What the Devil!?" as a message in the SOS feature, that's me. It was too great of an opportunity to pass up.

 

[Minato]

I'm liking Golden a lot. I heard the original Japanese dialogue during that Marie scene was similar to what we got in the localization on the word-play, but it was great that they used it to sneak in a reference. As long as they don't make up references out of nowhere like how NISA sometimes does, I'm ok with it.

 

[Zankoku]

Liz's DP... doesn't seem all that threatening, even on netplay? Admittedly it doesn't guardpoint so you can't cancel on reaction into your own DP or anything, but it only hits against grounded players and is so slow you can roll past or cross it up. I dunno, maybe this is just because I bait from the air more than it's good for, which works against me in matchups like vs Yu and Mitsuru.

Yeah, it's terrible. The only annoying/frustrating part that Tec meant was getting thrown when you thought you teched it in time online.
But yeah, such a terrible DP. Only time I like it is if I get a FC DP in the corner to combo off of or if I do it early in a round to cast Charm.

Best way to punish it (imo) when you're in neutral on the ground for most characters is just to back dash right before the actual grab. It's like a free fatal combo for most of the cast.

 

[Teczer0]

Its rather just the thought of getting hit more than how much it does. Just a mental thing, I was sorta frustrated honestly I probably shouldn't have played lol.

Its whatever, it happens.

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

Glad to know its not just me

 

[Teczer0]

It always snowballs too because I just hit DP like its a fix button haha.

I don't think I've done a single correct burst or DP vs minato yesterday.

 

[sakuraZaKi]

I'm with Minato on studying for finals, sorry everyone...

I could fit in at least one session, but that's it. I dunno when either.

 

[Jam Stunna]

Good games guys!

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

Good Games tonight!

 

[Teczer0]

Anyone wanna play today?

 

[Jam Stunna]

Maybe after I finish my homework

 

[Teczer0]

Thats cool.

Lemme know when you're free Jam

 

[OBT]

Been a while, sorry guys :/

Everybody better be entering P4U at apex this year, I know I will

 

[Zankoku]

I'm not going to Apex.

 

[Smooth Criminal]

Fail, Ankoku.

Fail.

You do not deserve a life with better things to do.

[Jam Stunna]

P4A is at Apex? I might actually go then.

 

[Zankoku]

Fail, Ankoku.

Fail.

You do not deserve a life with better things to do.

It's less about having better things to do and more about finding better things to do if it has to come down to that.

Either way, jokes.

[Teczer0]

If you guys do you should let me know. I'm gonna stay near the venue at my brothers dorm.

If I have space I would house you guys and bring persona :3

 

[Umby]

Who can I talk to about Aigis? ;___;

 

[Lythium]

So, this is pretty awesome. Akihiko combo video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5b4s7cD-lE&feature=g-all

 

[Rutger]

That was great.


Reminded me that I have done little with Akihiko, I need to go learn some combos.

 

[Zankoku]

I kinda want to play doing all sorts of impractical stuff, but real matches never give me the meter or opponent lifebar to pull it off.

Here's a fun combo I did to carry from one side of the stage to the other.

[Sion]

omg i just saw that on his channel, lythium

too bad rip in peace p4u

otherwise i'd be grinding that tech

 

[sakuraZaKi]

Anyone up for some game today? I'm on right now.

 

[Zankoku]

ggs all! Totally wasn't expecting my win-streak, lol. Unfortunately I gotta go grab stuff from stores that close in an hour from now so I'll see everyone some other time.

 

[sakuraZaKi]

Your Kanji... is too... ARGH

XD

 

[LivewiresXe]

Not sure if anybody in this thread or whatnot is going to NEC or is in the area of it, but if you are, good luck now since I'm going to be out of town until Monday and won't be able to catch the stream.

 

[sakuraZaKi]

ggs to Tec, Minato, aisight and my cousin, lol.

Had a really good run today, imo.

 

[Sailor Princess Twenty-Two.]

is everyone finished?

Or if i hop on right now will people still be playing?

 

[Zankoku]

Your Kanji... is too... ARGH

XD

lol

For what it's worth, your Yukiko's a lot better than the last time I'd seen it, good work with the improvement. You seriously almost got me that last game, until you got too caught up in the moment and didn't just jump after 5AA on block. 236b ender is good to reset me fullscreen, but don't be reliant on 3d fan oki - I'll gladly take the damage of blue life and a CH fan to break one of Yukiko's cards. When I noticed a Kanji player doing the same to me I started mixing in not throwing a fan, holding the Agi, then running in and doing a combo off of CH Agi. Also, use your meter. Sitting at 100 for too long is throwing away damage, never a good thing vs Kanji.

 

[Jam Stunna]

Sorry about dipping out so fast Minato, something came up. Are you working on Chie? I am so not looking forward to eating fc combos from her lol

 

[Minato]

GGs, everyone. Decided to hop on since I was tired of studying.

Sorry about dipping out so fast Minato, something came up. Are you working on Chie? I am so not looking forward to eating fc combos from her lol

No problem. And I want to. I started using her just today after messing around with trials.
I haven't played in awhile so I figured why not learn someone new.

She was fairly easy to pick up. It's like Yu and Yosuke mixed in one. lol

 

[Zankoku]

I don't think FC's with Chie are very common, but she can do ridiculous damage off of just normal CH's so I don't think she really needs it anyway. Chie is scary.

Thanks. Is that still with 3d thrown in first? Or just go from 236b end?

 

[Zankoku]

You still need to bait the DP with 3D. If you don't want to break cards then don't use it, though, because there's no way to really keep your Persona safe except maybe doing 2D and having him DP nothing then countering with a far 5C 2C.

 

[Teczer0]

Anyone catching the NEC stream?
