What should I keep in mind/learn first if picking up Litchi?
Is her staff mode more footsie oriented? I noticed that in staff mode all her normals have considerably slower startup but considerably more range than when staffless.
....my upload speed is worse than that

So I watched some Hazama matches.
How the hell does everyone just get away with these jump-ins from across the entire screen. It looks so incredibly unsafe.

He can manipulate his movement really well. Against a good Hazama, it can be really difficult to predict.
Exactly this^
5D across the screen Hazama will be somewhat easy to read and get a good AA against. Ones that keep a stock and like to do D>B or C won't get easily punished.
Pretty positive you can't double bind commands on any version. That was the whole point in making it easier to switch buttons.

Let me get a good AA. Stop juking me.
You usually get me, but I try and bait it by cancelling the first to make you think I'm coming, then get a counter hit
Stuff like j4D~D does some really interesting arcs too.
Sets up really nice cross ups and movement options when the chain is still short.

Well I paid money for Terumi.
Seems like a really fun character to use, relatively unique too since so many of his moves have very long multi hit animations. I guess the execution is easier that way in my opinion. It also makes a nice gameplay balance though because if you whiff it leaves you rather exposed for a punish.

Na you're really not. In this case it's probably just my previous BlazBlue experience coming into the picture, I played a bunch of Continuum Shift before I picked up Skullgirls. Doesn't Izayoi have a pretty decent DP? Probably something to consider using more often. Especially after I use that Electric Grab thing that Tager has. It's a setup move specifically designed to make the opponent guess so if you just sit there and block you're gonna keep getting command grabbed- jump, backdash, DP, feel free to do a bunch of things. Also pay attention to the status of Tager's special gauge, the sparkbolt gauge. When it's completely filled he gets access to the electric fireball that allows him to combo full screen so when you see that its full try to do your best to get me to waste it.
You really want to be wary of using Izayoi's projectile against Azrael too because he can absorb them and turn them into super fireballs.
In either case we're both getting mauled by Prototype and ApolloJoe (and I'm lagging with both of them for some reason?)
Good games everyone. I'm happy I took at least one round off you Prototype. lol
I don't think she has a decent DP? She has two pretty good anti air special moves, but they only have head invulnerability.
I'm not very familiar with most of the cast, so I wasn't aware of Azrael's ability to absorb those projectiles heh.

Izayoi doesn't have an invincible DP. Her DP is good for AA's only. Her only real reversal is her super.

I have no clue how they thought Izayoi was ment for new players to use.
Izayoi has no DP. Only reversal option is super.Na you're really not.

go put that in your favourite translate tool because theres too many words for me to do it manually.
Forgot to mention, there will be footages of Celica gameplay in bluraji tonight 8PM Japan time.

I'd say all the CP characters have been really good overall in that department.
CS2 was a free balance update with DLC characters that had to be purchased. It's not unreasonable to believe that's possible for CP2 as well.
Also, Nu will no longer be a stance change character in CP2.
This turns out to be true. Its a bother I will have to work around. I have done it before. Does not effect Nu who is quickly becoming the main of mains though. I even pulled off half of her anti air combo in a game last night guys! Root for me! lol
I hate playing this game knowing that the character I am learning on is going to be really altered in the "near future" (I realize this stuff can take a long ass time to filter down... especially to vita.)
The main thing about doing combos with Nu and Lambda is to not rush things. There are specific spots which require quick timing, but overall everything is fairly laid back, especially with normals like 3C which can be cancelled early.
This is Blazblue. ArcSys changes how characters play in each revision for the hell of it. Even going from CS1->CS2->CSE a Lambda player had to rework combos and various tech. Nevermind CT Nu being removed completely in favor of CS Lambda to begin with, but I didn't play CT so I didn't have to worry about that until now.
RIP 5C corner loops.

If you are a Nu player would you mine maybe giving me something like... Here are 4-5 combos you need to know, now go to training mode and make it happen?
My Nu is rather incomplete. I had to ditch all of my Lambda muscle memory and while I have the hang of playing the Nu side of things now I never put in the time to really get a grasp on her stance change game.
Ahh, thanks for the advice anyway! I will stick to the Dustloop BnBs someone linked me.

Disappointed that Lambda looks the exact same. That character art is so deceiving.
I will definitely try out Celica though.

Sweet! She looks great.
Guess they're planning to change up Ragna's combos since Hell's Fang has less float.

Welcome to BlazBlue!
Yeah, I'm all too familiar with it, lol.
It was the main reason why I stopped playing Hakumen honestly. Too many drastic changes in each version to the point where I didn't feel like re-learning him each time.
Though, I usually rotate between using Litchi, Ragna, and Hakumen depending on who I like playing the most in each revision of the game minus EX since I didn't bother with it.
In CP1, it's mainly Ragna, and Litchi sometimes. Could change in CP2, who knows!

Ok Celica actually looks really cool.
I like how so many of her animations have her playing off of Minerva.
Day one.

CT Nu going to CS Lambda she received a lot of deserved nerfs that changed her neutral game completely. But within the CS revisions, Lambda's neutral remained mostly the same if not better.
It's pretty fair to expect that the jump from CS to CP would be fairly large.
What really annoys me about splitting up Nu and Lambda now is that they gave Nu a lot of new tools by giving her the stance mechanic which plays a huge role in her neutral game but now they're taking all that away to justify reusing assets and go "look! more characters!".
They really should have left Nu's stance mechanic alone and have Lambda be the simpler non-stance character.
Or, just not have done the stances in the first place.

You're giving Mori too much credit to be able to think of something like that.
Although if that happened some of the moves that had overlapping commands would be hard to pick one over the other. Both forms 236D were great tools.

I'm training slowly but what are peoples thoughts on Kokonoe?
Prototype-03
Member
I really hope that they leave the top characters alone (or minor changes) and change the bottom tier chars. I feel like the top 5 chars or so are pretty much perfect as they are.
As OP as they say Kokonoe is, she was clearly beatable since there weren't any top 8 Kokos (which was surprising to me).
