I like her changes, she seems really good already. :3 Nu and Lambda aren't that bad though. I prefer Litchi vs Lambda, but with Rachel is still s a very doable match-up. There there are many much more fun match-ups than this one though.

I'll be sticking to her!

Btw, are these DLC colours really DLC again (blegh)? Or can we unlock them like in Extend (yay).

Lol, that's a palette swap that really suits Rachel...

I wonder if someone is going to get a Kirino one to complement it. (no one yet, but there's always Mu)


PS: Does anyone know what the properties of the Nu move I'm seeing where she places a cylinder around herself that slowly dissipates are? I speak of the one you can see in the trailer and @1:39 in this video.

Nu is a mode change character now. If I remember correctly, in halo mode, she gets Act Parser Zwei, Blade, and Cavalier, as well as Calamity Sword super, however she loses access to regular Act Parser, C follow-ups to D specials, and Legacy Edge. There's more, but that's all I can remember off the top of my head.

Basically, you start with Nu, which is better at neutral, and then you can switch to Lambda (with the halo) mode, which is better combos. At least, that's my understanding of it.

Oh I see, thank you. That's actually really neat. I'm not sure what it does for her competitiveness etc. but I like the idea of it (plays Litchi).

I suppose that makes some rough sense story-wise as well considering the way she came back from being Lambda etc.

If Nu's a stance character, that's pretty cool. Makes me oddly less worried about having to fight her knowing that she only has half of her stuff at a time. :bee:

Chipp should have a Goku color, he has the looks and the Instant Transmission. :/

But Bang has always been able to go Super Saiyan, and he had Jam Project, seems very appropriate.

Maaaan, I just got my butt handed to me by an Arakune who knew much more than I did about playing him :<

Still got a long way to go before I stop being ScrubKune I guess. I'm still losing to people I would normally be able to punish as a different character.

Soooo apparently Azrael has now made Blazblue into Melty Blood? I'm not sure if you guys have seen the video, but there's some video of Azrael doing like a (probably Tager only) j.A(?) infinite which continually resets to stop from deteriorating. I was like "uhh..."

Melty is all about that 2A.

Also.

No surprise that it will probably be patched out.

Yeah, that's the one, thanks. I don't have a Nico account because well, I can't understand Japanese. If it was English, I would. It's not like that whole "pay $8.95 even though the stream is still free" thing.

Hokuto no Ken: Fist of the North Star, right? Ah yes....my mistake. Sorry, I don't know all of my Japanese games. Oops. It's still kinda funny though. And I have this urge to secondary Bullet, but apparently I'm far from alone in that.

NEC grand finals?

Dora picks Stylish Tager.

Then goes back to Bang.

Because what else are you going to do against Souji's Arakune. :/

Too bad Goro wasn't able to come. I still have no idea how he beat Souji so cleanly with Makoto.

Midscreen Itsuu B into Four Winds into her new rush move into 4B into Itsuu A combo for 3.8k meterless? SEX SEX SEX!!

Litchi you're winning my heart all over again!

EDIT: Watches more of the vid: explodes. I'm so excited you can 4B into Itsuu A now, every other CP development is now moot on my internal hype-scale.

It was great. Matches were pretty hype aside from grand finals.

Also lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGfNuMKzwIE&t=125m06s
I'm actually looking forward to more stuff like this.

Hahaha, wow.

Overdrive is going to be a very interesting mechanic to watch grow, especially with it being tied to our burst. I'm curious to see which characters will end up wanting to use it more often.

Yeah, I'm interested to see how all this develops. It almost feels like the Japanese players are advancing slower than usual because of all these changes, so it's going to be awhile. :ohwell:

Also, I think I'm going to focus on my CT mains again for CP. I'll have fun with quite a few subs though.

K this has been bugging me for a while.

Is Minato seriously a girl or is that just a P3 reference and I'm being trolled?

Minato's def a guy.

I'VE SEEN HIM ON STREAM. >:O

I think all the anime peeps are trolling us by pretending to be ladies. Jungle, Tec, and Minato, just to name a few.
