The BlazBlue Thread: all the imports!

[Spelt]

Thanks Lythium.


Also those last two posts did nothing. If anything you just encouraged the KOF discussion.
If you want to talk about Blazblue then ... talk about it.
Which we still were anyways, so I don't see what the big problem is.

Expecting a thread to stay on topic 100% of the time is just dumb, especially when we're in between games and don't really have a lot to talk about.

woops, ninja'd.
oh well.

Anyway, I still dunno who I'm gonna play in Extend. :|
I'm starting to get interested in Mu again.
j.2C > dash 2C combos are pretty awesome.

This thread can get pretty off topic at times.

It just happens.


It should be fine though, it's not like we have a general discussion/social thread in this nice little off topic section of smashboards for all these random things anyways, because that would be silly. :3

I know right???

Anyways, back to BB discussion.

^^;

why dont you just stay with your chars?you play with rachel,jin and lambda,right?they just got better or didnt changed that much.

 

[Spelt]

I play like everyone, and I can't narrow it down. ;_;

I'm hoping actually playing them when Extend comes out will help me decide who to stay with, but right now I play waaaay too many characters. Especially if tournaments ever start happening here again.

 

[arturefo]

yeah.i remembered now.your hazama is pretty good too.the way he is on extend,maybe you should give it a try.but in the end,you'll just figure out what char youll use when you play the game,i think.

 

[Spelt]

Yeah, thanks!

 

[Kuraudo]

Every game I tell myself I'll pick up somebody else. And then I end up just sticking to Ragna only.

Lol I'm such a one-track player. I'm still interested in Noel and Jin. But I wouldn't mind giving Hazama and Relius a try. We'll see though.

 

[LivewiresXe]

I'm the same kind of way. I always think "I'm going to try someone as a secondary!" then...I wind up just sticking with Noel.

Here's the thing though. You know how to use Noel. I can't combo with anybody else, period. If it isn't Smash Bros., I usually find myself dedicating to just one character in a fighting game.

That's why I only play Ragna in BlazBlue, Arcueid in Melty Blood (mostly crescent), and so on. Only exception really is Fate/Unlimited Codes.

...and in that Shirou and Archer are essentially the same person canonly anyway. LOL

 

[Crusayer]

I only know Noel's combos because I needed to know a character that's not DLC for some of the tournies back then.

At least you play a character that will ALWAYS be in the game lol.

As for melty, I can play several characters since I put way more time into that game than all my other fighters and I play a friend in netplay every night.

 

[arturefo]

weird.tournaments that dlc are not allowed?never saw that before.

 

[Crusayer]

It's not that they weren't allowed, it's that the console didn't have the DLC on it and there was no internet connection to download them.

I had the same problem in BB. I'm picking up characters at a much faster rate now.
Basically I'll try out all their normals, memorize their specials, and then just watch match videos. I'll memorize it to the point where seeing it in matches won't be too hard.

And we should play Fate someday lol.

As for melty, I can play several characters since I put way more time into that game than all my other fighters and I play a friend in netplay every night.

Luckily Melty's easier to pick up characters. Choosing random on BB feels horrible compared to Melty.

oh,ok.that makes sense.

 

[Crusayer]

Lol I can't just pick up a random char that easily in melty. It's way too hard for me to efficiently pressure anything if I don't know the character really well.

It's just not possible to pick up C-Kohaku with ease :x.

Though I'll agree for characters like Nanaya for ease of learning.

 

[arturefo]

i never played melty too much.but when current code comes out i surely will.

 

[Crusayer]

...It is out lol.

We even have a thread for it /o\.

 

[arturefo]

is out for pc?im gonna look for that thread.

j.2C > dash 2C combos are pretty awesome.

No problem!

Yeah, I'm having the same issue. I'll be sticking with Mu fo' sho', but I'm not sure who my sub is gonna be. Probably just stick with Noel or something.

2C having an OTG hitbox is awesome, by the way. Sexy new air throw combos, aw yiss.

It's not that they weren't allowed, it's that the console didn't have the DLC on it and there was no internet connection to download them.

I've also had this problem before when I've gone to other tournaments. When I went to FFI, only one console had Mu unlocked or something, so I was like, welp, I'll just play Noel.

 

[LivewiresXe]

I was going to say "and that's why you don't cheat on the Vanguard" but then I was like "oh wait...it's still technically the same character...

 

[Lythium]

Haha, super saiyan Noel = Mu. :3

Speaking of Noel, have this combo video. It's pretty.

 

[LivewiresXe]

It's SO true, her eyes even change colour and all.


And UWHAAAAA? sj.D into Spring Raid, into stuff, into BangBangBang into MORE stuff? Spring Raid into stuff into Assault Through combos? 2B>6C>22B as some weird new Haida Loop thing? What is this? Why do I like it? WHY DO I NOT HAVE THIS GAME PRE-ORDERED YET?!!

 

[Crusayer]

10k without gold bursts. Wut.

Also, wut @ the haida loop on Hakumen. I thought they took that out.

 

[Lythium]

New variation on haida loop!

22B has repeat move proration, but only the first hit of a series of 22B hits. If you watch the vid very carefully, you can see that they are whiffing the first hit of 22B but the rest still hits, therefore, you can still combo with it multiple times, but only if you whiff the first hit of the 22B.

Haha, I thought you might like that, Livewire. :3

 

[LivewiresXe]

Indeed, me quite likey. You can never fully silence the Haida! My main question is if it's as character specific in things as it is in CS2.

 

[Lythium]

That, unfortunately, I don't know. It might only work on characters with big or fatty hitboxes, I'm not sure.

But it's still neat!

New Technology!!!

 

[Spelt]

I am not okay with this.

 

[Crusayer]

Wait so 22C doesn't have the repeat proration?

Sounds like a Hakumen / Tager only combo from what the spacing looked like.

And here I thought Tao was the loop character. :/

22C has had repeat move since, like, CS1 or something. Now, the first hit of 22B also has repeat move.

And for the record, it looks really hard. I don't know if it's actually really hard, but it looks like it. I doubt you'll see it outside of combo videos, but that's just imo.

 

[LivewiresXe]

Well...it's not like it's gonna be harder than Haida-ing Carl in CS2. Would be easier to tell how hard it is if I knew the skill or identity of the player in the combo vid, though.

 

[Crusayer]

Wait so then how do you loop 22C then? Or is 22BC a different move all together?

Well either way, a combo video is a combo video. It'll be like that triple revolver shot or w/e (j236c) too lol.

Though I do want to one day see a wake up TK j236c CH combo like that one in the first EX noel combo vid.

 

[LivewiresXe]

I'm pretty sure you'd have to do 22BC. 22C loops haven't worked since CT, and even then they were a bit weird.

 

[Lythium]

Yeah, you can't loop 22C due to its repeat move proration. It's still a good move though, because it has bonus proration as well, at least in CS2.

22BC is just inputting it that way, however, you can still only use C silencer once per combo. Same as if you did 22BBBC, 22BBBBBC or whatever the case may be.

 

[Crusayer]

So then how does that hakumen loop work?

Huh.

 

[Spelt]

...What loop?
