The BlazBlue Thread: all the imports!

Platinum the Trinity.

Oh geez, lol.

How did I miss that?

Thanks, though.

 

[Lythium]

Haku-men has combos,what are you talking about Gates?

Have you seen what he can do with that stomp?

Even some of his 2-3 hit sword combos are devastating.He really does do a lot of damage.

OMG, the stomp. I remember when the stomp was my avatar:

Good times.

 

[Minato]

I suck so much at BlazBlue now. You would think that practicing GG wouldn't make you worse...

In theory, it really shouldn't.

 

[Lythium]

That's odd. I found playing GG made me better at BB.

 

[Yuna-Maria]

I'm the worst BlazBlue player in the world, no contest. I shouldn't be losing as much as I do, considering that I play as the most overpowered, skill-free character in the history of the entire genre. It's not like winning with Nu takes any skill or thought, but I still manage to lose almost every match.

 

[Gates]

Bad player MM first to 5 losses?

I spend many hours learning GG, and still cant pull off some basic combo (with Sol).

It took me 30 minute on BlazBlue to learn any decent combo with Jin, WTF?

What am I doing wrong?

 

[Yuna-Maria]

Just out of curiosity, why is Nu on the box art? Nu isn't in Continuum Shift...

 

[Lythium]

I was wondering the same thing.

Guys, I found this lovely Nu combo vid:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m05cwZxYJk0&feature=sub It made me go . Especially for the double gravity well.

[Lythium]

It's pretty darn good, I have to say. I'm not a huge fan of Goryus though. I respect his Nu, and I understand why it's good, but I don't much care for his style.

I'll take Inoue or Reria over Goryus any day.

 

[Thino]

Reria is the reason I use green Nu , he owns.

I approve of this statement.

Oh wow this has a lot of pages: but I shouldn't expect less from a game as good as this. ^^

Yeah recently got into this game(started on Sunday). Maining Arakune atm: I'm picking him up because he seems to have a depth to his playstyle that other characters don't. What good videos can I check out about him?

I think Zong is decent, but DIO is the shizz when it comes to Carl.

Man, Dio scored a spot in the first SBO BB team.

He apparently took down Souji (Top CT Arakune, arguably top CS Arakune) and Kyaku (Litchi player) all by himself.
Buppa (A Jin player) got the other spot after taking down Hima (3rd ranked CT Arakune, really great CS Arakune) and Dora (notorious Bang player).

its been such a long time since I didnt see DIO play , actually ever since CS , I used to watch all his matches in CT

so apparently he still owns ? any links to vids of him playing?

also wow @ Buppa , I always thought he was just a "good" Jin , but taking out one of the best Arakune and one of the best Bangs? he must have been on fire !

hell ! where can I follow news about SBO ?

 

[Lythium]

Buppa has always been one of the best Jin players, and he's crazy-fun to watch. Good for him.

All that I got from the japanese BlazBlue BBS.

Buppa was always a great Jin, he easily lies in the ranks of Dennou and Ren, who are both as good as they come.

I was pretty disappointed that Souji and Hima was taken out as well, but I guess I have to get used to that, being Mid tier and all.
As far as Bang goes, the main player to look out for is Satoshi, that guy is a beast, he OCVed finals in a 4 on 4 and before then whenever his matches were due, he marathoned the entire opposing team.
He also thrashed an entire region of great players (including Kaqn {top Ragna}, Ren, Souji, Dora and others) single-handedly in a 14 on 14, and none of these matches were even close.
Bang players should take a lot of pride in him.


There's also a bit of argument on Arakune's tier position. Up until now the general consensus has been mid to upper mid tier, but in a recent tier list he's shown as A (high) tier.
I'm personally boggled at that, I'd like to see some detail match up information.
When CS comes out, I'm buying a stick and I'm going underground jp style and train like mad. I've also been talking with others to get a Michigan BB scene started, everyone's really hype to get it off before CS comes out.

Finally on the subject of Arcade sticks, an official BB stick is coming out with CS, it'll be around 200 bucks, but really it comes with the general top tier parts you'd find from a Street Fighter TE stick, which you can get for much less, almost 80$ cheaper. I personally won't bother with the BB stick, but if you're a fanboy like that, you can preorder it easy.

I dunno why Dennou always stood out more for me than Buppa when it comes to japanese Jin players , guess I just underestimated him

and I saw some of the matches of that 14v14 , that Satoshi guy isnt indeed a beast , and makes CS Bang a bit less boring to watch lol , I saw Ren did pretty good too

I have hard time making an opinion of CS Arakune ever since that loop is being constantly used now , at least in the latest matches I watched

I've learned that it's easy for a non-Arakune player to antagonize that loop.
But it really is only source of damage when in curse, and it's balanced perfectly fine.

Some people are calling bull**** on several things about him, despite that other character has faster and more rewarding bull**** of their own.
I'd chalk it up to an anti-Arakune bias, which is still lingering from CT.

But truth be told, he is balanced quite well.

The smooth criminal thing got old really fast, and the animation wasn't even fluent.
I like knife fight better.

[Thino]

yea think so too , even though I only played CPU CS Arakune , I can tell he's still good but much less bull**** tier than what he is in CT

 

[Gates]

Basic summary of CS Arakune:

Before curse, he's one of the worst offensive characters in the game.
During curse he's one of the best offensive characters in the game.
Both before and after, he defense is less than average.

Is that done by the same guy who does that BB sprite comic?

Yeah, it is.

I (finally!) got around to pre-ordering my copy of Continuum Shift.

How much is it retailing for?

 

[Lythium]

Well, I ordered the Japanese version from Play Asia, and with shipping and whatnot, it comes to almost $80CDN.

The US release one is about 40 to 50 or something like that, but I want mine early.

 

[Jam Stunna]

Okay. Anything above $40 is a no-go for me.

 

[Gates]

Cheap***.

I'll pay $60 for CS gladly.

EDIT: Wow, I did not know the last part of "Cheap***" wasn't censored. I'm fixing it before I get infracted.

 

[Jam Stunna]

$60 for three new characters, one of whom may not even be tourney legal? No way.

 

[Minato]

This. I'm glad the game isn't 60 dollars.
I don't want to pay that much for 3 characters and having my main nerfed.

 

[Thino]

wait...one of whom might not be tourney legal? did I miss something?

 

[Jam Stunna]

We're just speculating that Mu-12 will not actually be balanced for competitive play.
