The BlazBlue Thread: all the imports!

[Rutger]

How modified are we talking? Because CT Arakune was really stupid.

I like being able to hit out of curse. :/

Just tone him down instead of the not great until godlike character we have now.

 

[Lythium]

I would like no curse on block, but that's just wishful thinking.

[Spelt]

CT arakune even toned down would still be ridiculously good, especially with the bugs he has now.

Moving while cursed basically means you're gonna get hit.
I guess it would be kinda cool if counter assaults/bursts got rid of curse, though.

Arakune's pretty much always going to be a gimmicky character no matter what they do with him though.

Lambda's C Act Parser combos into 6D! Squee! :3c

 

[Minato]

What is this "tutorial" you speak of?

Actually, anybody remember when they had those Tutorial/combos/strategies videos for each of the characters on that bonus disc that came with the Limited Edition of CT? And am I the only one who actually kind of tried to use that?

I never used it. It was a cool idea at first but the in-game tutorial and challenges do a good job.
And personally, the way I learn combos is memorizing them by just watching them. I never write them down. Been doing that for every BB.

One-hit curse was scary though. Luckily I was Rachel. XD

>Secondary half the roster

That's pretty much a good description of me and Spelt (Spelt to a greater degree though).

 

[Lythium]

Lambda's C Act Parser combos into 6D! Squee! :3c

It always did.

 

[Lore]

It always did.

... Really? I felt so cool noticing it, though.

 

[lilseph]

It also combos into 5C, and 5C combos into big damage.

 

[Spelt]

You should usually follow up cavalier with 236d or 5c > 214a unless the combo has already been going for awhile and it's been prorated enough to where those won't hit. cavalier > 236d is a really tricky link though.

oh, ninja'd by lilseph.

 

[Lythium]

If the combo has already prorated, I usually do like 5C mash > 2C > drive juggle.

But I don't even play Lambda, so what do I know?

Kappa Kappa Kappa?

 

[KuroganeHammer]

****ing hell, I hate Hazama. Is arcade Hazama unlimited or something? I hope so.

 

[Spelt]

You can tell if an opponent is unlimited because their names at the top are flashing purple.

Unlimited hazama also has a green aura thing.

 

[KuroganeHammer]

The green aura thing IS THE WORST. >

But I just got him into a corner and destroyed him with standing a's and Hells fang and he couldn't do much about that despite the fact that at mid screen he was anti-air'ing me and jumping over hells fang on reaction.

I fear playing computers will give me bad habits.

 

[Spelt]

They probably will.

Computers are good for practicing some things though, like combos.

I fight against computers a lot.

Fun fact: on the old CS score attack's Hazama, you could get it to 236236B just by mashing 5A at full screen... it was one of the few and only ways to exploit the beast it otherwise was lol

 

[Spelt]

you can do more things kinda like that with other computers too.
like you can make a tager spark bolt by jabbing or safe jumping an aerial and then blocking.

computers are silly.

 

[RespawningJesus]

Yeah, I noticed that computers do the same exact thing in certain situations. In fact, playing story mode a bit, and I noticed this. Certain CPUs will always start each and every match with a certain move and proceed to follow a specific attack pattern.

Terrible computers in this game.

 

[Crusayer]

I'd like to know one fighter that actually has a good CPU.

Without being a broken character that is.

 

[Sunnysunny]

Soucalibur 5 legendary souls computers are godlike. Probably the most versatile computers i've ever seen in a fighting game that rely on mixups instead of input reading.

Well...
except for the occasional psychic super. Thats bull ****. :I

 

[Lythium]

Leaving for Montreal soon. :3c

Livewire, I'll see you there! Better bring your gameface though, I'm going in hard. /trashtalk

CS: Extend actually seems pretty good, but man. The Skullgirls CPUs are just brutal.

Anyway, I'm slowly getting back to being decent at this game! It's taking a bit though, heh.

 

[Rutger]

Skullgirls CPUs know combos.

I don't find them bad on normal, they're actually pretty cool, but with GGPO netcode I don't really need to fight them. :/


I haven't really even fought CSE's CPU outside a couple arcade runs and a little bit of abyss, I always netplay for random fights over CPUs.

 

[Lythium]

I don't think I've ever played against the CPU in BB.

Seriously.

 

[LivewiresXe]

Livewire, I'll see you there! Better bring your gameface though, I'm going in hard. /trashtalk

You damn well know I will Lythi. It's awwwnnn now.

 

[dualseeker]

Wow.... Somehow... I'm really jealous... I wish I never had to go through the pain of input reading CPU Tager with Noel X__X.

 

[LivewiresXe]

CPU Input Tager<Online OMGWTFLAAAG!! Tager.

 

[Thino]

I'd take any netplay Tager over Hell CPU Tager, goddamn that guy is frustrating in terms of IMPOSSIBLE 1 FRAME COUNTER 360/720

 

[KuroganeHammer]

I've noticed that CPU Iron Tager is really hard too. I guess it wasn't just my imagination.

The computer is a cheating *******.

 

[LivewiresXe]

The CPU always seems to cheat on 360s/720s. Not just in Blazblue, but in fighting games in general.

 

[C.S. Dinah]

Unlimited Mars Taokaka...

The horror.

 

[Jdietz43]

CT Hakumen...
THE HORROR.


I remember first picking up CT and trying to go through story mode... Haku's speech was intimidating for reasons other than simply his words, every time you heard it you knew you had another 15 minutes of trying to just beat him coming your way. I know it was probably a deadly combination of being a n00b since BB just released and Haku cheating hard, but I still remember it lol.

 

[RespawningJesus]

Speaking of Hakumen, is it me, or is he now faster than in CT?

Also, I'm re-learning Ragna, and getting back my flow from CT. Still gotta practice inputs for Rising Inferno and Gauntlet Hades, along with their followups.

Plus, add in re-learning Bang. Still love to abuse his Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan technique, even though I really shouldn't, but only for the awesome theme song. XD

 

[Kuraudo]

Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan is really good for Bang actually.

And same thing goes for me. Goddamn I can't get past Unlimited Mars Tao for some reason.

 

[RespawningJesus]

Well, I meant that I shouldn't use it EVERY time I get the chance to. So like, every match, every round, I will use Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan. I need to stop doing that, despite at how awesome it is.

 

[Zero_Gamer]

You're supposed to have Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan as much as possible. You get, like, 6K off of everything.

 

[dualseeker]

Fu-Rin-Ka-Zan is really good for Bang actually.

And same thing goes for me. Goddamn I can't get past Unlimited Mars Tao for some reason.

Pray you never go past Unlimited Mars Tao... The horror of Unlimited Mars Litchi X__X.... I've had nightmares - NIGHTMARES - about her, OMFG X__X.

 

[Spelt]

You don't HAVE to fu-rin-ka-zan every time you're able to.

Why are we encouraging use of frkz? I wish that move didn't exist...

 

[dualseeker]

Well... At least Bang can't block during FRKZ ^^;. So... Just throw out the biggest and quickest hitboxes you have I guess XD.
