Does BlazBlue use a 5 button layout?[/quote]Uses 4. you can choose a layout to your liking like ABCD or DABC

[quote name='Jimbo Slice']Man I wasn't even aware kara techniques were in this game! What do you do them with... throws or Focus Attacks?

Please explain :)![/quote]Kara throws are 3S style.

Cammy has one but it only moves her like a pixel. :/ Haven't found Rose's yet.
 
Well, you can kara a bunch of stuff, but its not quite as useful in general as throws.

You could kara Ken's jab shoryu in 3S and do two in a row.

I know you can do ken's roundhouse fake into karathrow, which is really crazy. You can also kara focus attack with him.

Its so gross!

I'm liking Noel...[/QUOTE]

There are a bunch of Noel players in my area. Flash as hell combos/links to say the least. Entertaining to watch.

Im wondering now if GG:XX AC Plus is it then for GG. Which would really suck, but this looks so much like GG I guess I could be okay with that. The one thing that kinda bugs me is the " cool buttion " he was talking. I have played a few fighters that had that and it just felt tacky to me. Though the set condition to use a finishing move does sound interesting.
 
ok, did I somehow miss it, but what system(s?) is Blazblue coming out for this summer? Gotta decide if I need to hunt down a 360 pad, or if my USB saturn pad that's on its way for the PS3 will suffice.

Also, in regards to that kickass combo vid: Any use of a rocking Pachabel's canon is an instant bonus in my book. This vid still amazes me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QjA5faZF1A8

It feels much more like an extra hard attack with certain conditions than anything really gimmicky like it would seem.

Jin's does the freeze stuff, Ragnas is the drain attacks etc.
 
[quote name='Mr. Beef']Gosh damn suko, your Ryu was untouchable after that brief pause. :(

GGs, though.[/QUOTE]

GG's.

Also, check your PM if you haven't.
 
ggs trajin.

you really kept me on my toes like in every round.

people like to jump away and round house
and... crouching fierce is your best friend.

That's pretty much my strategy lol. I don't use to many dash punches, because they're extremely vulnerable to focus. If I have super i'll do cr. jab, cr. jab, cr. strong, dash punch -> Super. That's all basic stuff though...

I don't have any advanced tactics yet. I just throw, combo into headbutt, use cr. roundhouse. Focus attacks have been a big part of my game as well.

Unfortunately I haven't found much use for his ultra, except in rare occurrences where it can be used for punishment.

I know that you can combo after ex dash punches, but I'm not totally sure how this is done. I've seen it in videos but haven't been able to get it to work consistently when I'm playing him.

what it is is a unique action each character has.

for example, with Litchi it equips/unequips her weapon, for Carl is allows him to control his doll, for Rachel is allows her to control the wind, etc. etc.

it's becoz each character has a unique playstyle that the game does a great job at making each character feel like you are not playing the same game.

WTF is that guy. Check for the one by JerryC. Hes legit.



EDIT: Oh lul its in that BlazBlue video
 
GG's tonight to HeavyD. I don't think we've ever played any FG's online, so I didn't know what to expect.

Epic Abel/Ken matches

fuckin' shotos
 
Hahaha yeah that was great.

We had some ugly ass matches though, like roll throw roll throw roll throw jump in srk'd x 4. Otherwise they were good all around.

Man fuck that roll! I know you can jab out of it, but if you even think about doing a medium its like you're already on the floor!

certain dash punches have armor break properties. i think b, df+k has it, and maybe b, f+[p].

you can combo his super and ultra in from headbutt. use kicks, and hold them down so that you get the juggling uppercut.

combo after ex dash punches is demoed in trial with EX uppercut into c.lk.
 
Do setups for the overhead punch too, or the crouching one. If you set up those and they hit its like a free pressure game.

Rog's headbutt is retarded, just do that on wakeup 90% of the time and youll have an ultra!
 
EX dash upper into cr.lp x 2, into heavy buffalo = weapon of choice ~!

Boxer is my main... he's fun.

The only armor break property dash punch he has is his overhead.

Definitely annoying. Great thing about Abel is once you get a knockdown, the avalanche starts. Too fun to main Abel. At times my brain went dead because I was thinking too hard to mix things up.

Also sorry I didn't respond to your invite originally. Trying to finish up the last couple episodes of Dexter: Season 3 and I didn't see it.
 
Its all good.

Abel corner rape on knockdown is nuts!

It was like damn I got pushed into the corner, oh shit crossup half my lifes gone!

There's no serious abel players locally for me to take on, which is strange because he's like the only character that people don't use here.

I haven't played SFIV at SJSU now that the console release is out, but I can't remember any Abel players around there either. If I remember right there might be maybe 1 or 2 legit Abel players in NorCal, but I'm not sure if anyone mains him exclusively.

Yea, it's sort of funny how many options Abel has to pressure/cross-up/mix-up in the corner as opposed to everywhere else. Funny thing is you can actually link his regular Super off a meaty cr.FP in the corner.

The trouble I always throw in my head is actually getting the knockdown. As I said before once I get a knockdown, it's pretty much an avalanche from there if I can keep my head on straight. A lot of times I have to be careful against Shotos, as you can't play as aggressive with them as Abel's other matchups. Thing is I go back and forth between being patient and overtly aggressive depending on the player/situation. I find that I mix up the two sometimes.

There are still a lot of things I have to learn with Abel though. I still haven't practiced Rekka FADC into Cr.FP or constant MK Dash Cancel.

 
Yeah, I was trying to mix up my kara throw game, I'm sure you noticed. I was also trying to kara focus attack and kara fireball, but it didn't seem to work alot on you so i cut back on that.

Roundhouse fake to level 2 kara focus attack is grooooooosssssss
 
I'm not giving Capcom another dime towards SFIV unless they give me what I want, some 3S characters. I'll take Urien, Ibuki, and Hugo. It probably won't happen until Super Street Fighter IV Turbo Full HD Remix though. . .

i had no idea that all reversals have armor break, i think that's what happened to me.
 
Gosh damn, I'm way tired right now. Think I'ma finish up Chrono Trigger before I hit any SFIV today.

I need to FA more with Vega. I was playing these stupid fun Vega dittos last night, and my opponent was so much faster than I was! Plus, he would wreck me with FAs most of the rounds. I won most of the matches, probably because I was a bit more patient than he was, and I made less mistakes. Still, it made me realize that I don't FA much, if at all with Vega, and he has some good options after a crumple (not a lot, but what he does have are good).

Awwww, I fucking hate that! Once Abel gets going, it's really demoralizing.
 
whoooo! Quest!!

GUMMY BEEEAAAAARS~!!!
 
This month covers Jan. 2009 rankings.

As we all know, Tekken 6 was dethroned last month by BlazBlue due to a transitional period with Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion coming out the 18th of December and having less than 2 weeks of revenue.

January marked the first full month of Tekken 6 BR in arcades. Will BlazBlue hold on!?

TOP TEN GAMES
1) Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion / 鉄拳6 BLOODLINE REBELLION - 341.2
2) BlazBlue / ブレイブルー - 286.3
3) Gundam VS. / 機動戦士ガンダム ガンダムVS.ガンダム - 258.3
4) Melty Blood Actress Again - 207.2
5) Street Fighter IV - 164.7
6) Virtua Fighter 5 R - 126.9
7) Arcana Heart 2: Sugoi / すっごい!アルカナハート2 ～転校生 あかねとなずな～ - 101.4
8) Tatsunoko VS. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes - 96.3
9) Guilty Gear XX ^Core - 87.4
10) DeathSmiles - Mega Black Label / デススマイルズ MBL - 60.2

Well... it looks like Tekken will go on another 1 year + streak without getting dethroned...

Only chance (slight) will be when KOFXII hits arcades. But based on how KOF XI was received, I wouldn't bet on it.
 
GGs gigan! That jab headbutt is the bane of Tony Hawk's existence, but I think I beat it once? Man, I completely forgot!

Also, :cry: @ Beat Freaks not winning ABDC. Like, half that crew is hot, and one of them looks exactly like Faith from Mirror's Edge. Still, Quest is legit, so I ain't mad. At least it wasn't Fly Khicks who made it to the finale. Even their reunion performance was awful. I was laughing when I was watching it, because all they were doing was shaking their asses the entire time, and I was like, "a-ha, that's all you're good for."
