Well uh, if PSN's offline for 24 hours as it sometimes is then uh...I guess scratch that and I'll wind up playing ME2 while I watch The Daily Show and Colbert Report then, lol.

And holy crap Lythi, I just noticed you have like...13,000 posts.

Hazama would be way too depressing to play as if he ever got nerfed as bad as CS1 Rachel.
I'd love it. The only player in my area who could keep up with me in CT played Rachel followed by Hazama.

Well, I kinda meant like other than Tager, sorry.
I can't picture a Tsubaki in top tier. Maybe high if they buff the **** out of her, but I think she's doomed to mid-low because her style of gameplay clashes with her character design.

Tsubaki is pretty high in CS2 imo, it's just that nobody knows it yet because she's so underplayed.

She's got good fast normals and movement, the ability to drastically improve her damage with charge, reliable damage anywhere regardless of midscreen or corner, and amazing corner carry. She doesn't get zoned as hard as some of the other rushdown characters because of her 236/214 series. Her pressure is super tight and safe, and she's got a great kara throw.

Her only real weaknesses are lack of air-to-air game, and most of her normals are pretty short (with the exception of 5B and 2C). Plus, she may have to give up momentum from time to time to get charge, but charge isn't exactly hard to get either, so...

I dunno, I think Tsubaki is really solid in CS2.

edit: Also, her proration values are amazing, seriously. So many 100 P1 starters. :3c

This, oh lord her proration and amount of moves that go through things that uh...go through mostly everything else...

I thought Tsubaki was top tier in CS2.
Nah, that was the rest of the NOL.

Makoto -> some order of Hazama, Jin, and Noel.

The thing is, her lack of range on normals and need to bring her momentum to a halt really hurt, imo. You can make a case similar to the one you just made for each character as they all of some crazy advantageous stuff, but when you look at Tsubaki next to the rest of the cast, then I don't see her getting up there. A better shot that Arc Systems giving us a busted Tager, but I still don't see it.

Any character could be made broken with only a few rediculous changes honestly, not even Tager would stay on the bottom if they went all out.


I'd say that Tsubaki could easily be top tier, but Arcsys has been trying to not go overboard with her(which is why she was so god awful in CS1). She has all the tools really, but nothing is overpowered.

A lot of it just looks like it shouldn't connect, but does. I'm okay with it, it just looks kinda weird.

Maybe it's because Hakumen is such a fatty.

So yeah....my SECOND HDMI cable since like...July died today. Either I got a couple of lemons, or Blue Diamond's HDMI cables are crap. Luckily I have the box/receipt for one, and bag (and maybe receipt, if I can find it through the hundreds of receipts in my room, lol) and both of them have "Lifetime Warranty" on them. One I got in I think late July, but have the receipt in the box, and the shorter bag one was bought in (I think) late September, but would have to look for the receipt. *sigh* Hopefully I can get my money back or at least ONE replacement, since while I don't know how long an HDMI cable's supposed to last, I'm pretty sure 10 weeks isn't it.

Lythium, why does your Noel avatar look like Sion to me?

Kind of. But I can't unsee it now.

Haha, I dunno?

I recoloured the original picture to match one of her DLC palettes. I wish Noel had a Sion or Mami palette. That would be amazing.

I thought it was Sion for a second until I saw the detached sleeves.

Which would make her Reimu obv.

Informative and thought out as usual, Lythi. :bee:

I thought most people knew what they were though, but...a bunch of my female friends are semi-goth so that might be why, lol.
