The BlazBlue Thread: all the imports!

[Lythium]

I expected no less.

 

[Rutger]

Wow, I can watch the stream on my phone. I didn't think it would work.

It's really laggy though. Almost unwatchable.

 

[Lythium]

I'm pretty sure that Tekken is not installed on these consoles, because the loading times are atrocious.

Also, bring my BB back.

 

[arturefo]

I expected no less.

me too,acrually.i like noel.she is my sub after all.but i wanted to see a biger variety of characters.

 

[Gates]

I actually expected more Makotos.

 

[arturefo]

I actually expected more Makotos.

the makotos will show up later,i think.

 

[Lythium]

Same. Looking at the people who are registered, and I don't see any recognizable Makoto players. Or you could just play Noel, because she's almost as good for a lot less effort.

I'm actually really excited to watch PNW players, they have a really strong scene.

 

[Gates]

Or you could just play Noel, because she's almost as good for a lot less effort.

So Noel Derpmillion is the new Ragna the Derpedge?

 

[Lythium]

It's not the reward that I mind, it's how people play her. Kinda just like CS1 Ragna, exactly.

Pressure? OH **** DP!
Neutral? OH **** DP!
Blocked Hells Fang? OH **** DP!
Blocked a DP? OH **** RAPID CANCEL DP!
Defense? OH **** CROSSUP DP!

Stuff like this just gets old real fast, and the same will happen to Noel. Or has already happened. I can't tell.

 

[Gates]

Pressure? OH **** DP!
Neutral? OH **** DP!
Blocked Hells Fang? OH **** DP!
Blocked a DP? OH **** RAPID CANCEL DP!

This sounds familiar...

 

[Lythium]

Haha, pretty much.

This Hazama is decent. Never heard of him though. :3c

[Gates]

Your weak American minds cannot comprehend this advanced Soviet strategy.

 

[Lythium]

Pretty much amazing, imo.

 

[kinghippo99]

Mike Z's amazing Tager Genei Jin combo ;o
Dat sledge.

 

[arturefo]

mike z lost because he pissed off takeda with his infinite

 

[Lythium]

Man, this Noel vs. Ragna match is bad. :I

 

[arturefo]

i think ill only see my lambda when severin plays.

 

[Lythium]

Does Xie not play Lambda anymore?

Or did he switch to Platinum?

 

[arturefo]

i only saw he playing with platinum lately.i dunno.

 

[kinghippo99]

I love this. BlazBlue at EVO has given me the most laughs I've had all week.

 

[Lythium]

Dat Arakune astral.

 

[arturefo]

mike z wasnt giving a f** for the touranment

 

[Spelt]

Looks like i missed all the bb.

 

[Gates]

No, the quarterfinals and semifinals will be up later tonight.

 

[arturefo]

Looks like i missed all the bb.

theyre alternating between tekken and blazblue.

noooo!off air.

 

[Crusayer]

I beat Lythium 2-0.

Lag makoto is hard right lyth? xd.

 

[LivewiresXe]

You know, not to be a jerk but....seeing some of these Noel players that were in Pools...makes me feel a bit better about my own skills. A couple would like, do 3C>22C>6C (2hits) and leave it without thinking of trying for anything...

 

[Lythium]

Haha, GGs to you. BGs to lag.

Sorry for going D-mashy Noel on you. I wanted to play Tsubaki against you so bad, but online was having none of it. I don't even know how you handle it.

 

[Crusayer]

I don't find that 1 connection too bad for lag (I don't know how that number on the side works). I just always have to adjust my drives to let go earlier and earlier for more lag.

Maybe it's because of less mashy nature of makoto's combos that I can adjust easier. I know Noel's drive combos need to be inputted fairly fast. Or maybe it's because I always play melty netplay with a friend with 4f of delay xd

 

[arturefo]

evo is back

 

[LivewiresXe]

You play Tsubaki now, Lythium? How's she to learn? And uh...anyone here secondary Lambda? Because I'm seriously considering changing my 3 to having Noel as a main and Makoto/Lambda as secondaries...Huh, they're like, nothing alike.

 

[Gates]

I MAINED Lambda in CS1 and technically still do. What do you want to know?

And you're right, Lambda is completely different from Makoto and Noel because her gameplan is mostly focused around zoning instead of rushing down. If you want to play more of a rushdown character, try Bang, Ragna, or Tsubaki.

 

[LivewiresXe]

Oh, I just want to know some startup basics and stuff like that. And actually, I'm trying to play characters that play differently so I'll have a wider range of ways to look at things and stuff like that. Y'know, figure it might help me grow as a player.

 

[Gates]

Lythium actually asked me how to Lambda before and I told her this
http://www.smashboards.com/showpost.php?p=12860640&postcount=1083

1. Don't get knocked down.
2. Keep about 1/4 screen away from them at all times.
3. Read jump-ins since your best combos are from anti-airing.
4. IB a lot.
5. IB A LOT.

Xie's combo thread on Dustloop is also really comprehensive.

[Spelt]

lambda relies heavily on CAs to get out of pressure, most of the time once the opponent gets in it's a ***** to get them back out.

 

[LivewiresXe]

She'll help my defensive game, it seems, huh? Nice. Sounds like playing her could help more than I'd think.

 

[arturefo]

bb is back,if you want to watch

 

[LivewiresXe]

Good match between Biter and Sparks. I totally empathize with Biter losing because he tried an Astral though.
