It's funny how much the meaning of a sentence can change when you miss a single letter.
Is j.D supposed to be the best starter for damage? I never use it.

Well you don't really use it as a planned starter, it's more of an obstacle that leads to huge damage on counter

I see. I guess I'll try using it next time I play.
Looks like a combination of low Millia health and a cranked guard bar. Still made me go wide eyed though.

The best part is that was just from a single short block string lol Ky jacks the bar up so easy in this xD
Normally without the guardbar up it does about 40-45%
I love it. lol

Well, I don't think I'm embarrassingly bad anymore. Just regular bad. Anyone want to play tonight?

Any news of an EU release yet?

I don't think you understand. I don't have oki setups as Millia. Anyway, I'll see you later today. You on PS4? If not I'll PM you the lobby room name.

I think I'm going to retire my Millia from online, neutral is too painful. =/
I should pick up someone derpy like Elphelt for strictly online lol.

Nice taunt.

Nah, Ky has a problem catching Millia due to the double dash shenanigans. Although one good hit and it's half the HP.

I find it even actually, but online makes neutral too hard for Millia.

On knockdown? I believe that move works on anyone. I'm only able to throw out of it IF they mess up the timing. Otherwise, you'll have to block. The good news is that Millia basically has the same thing on knockdown with Tandem Top/Secret Garden set ups. Theoretically speaking anyway -- I'm not able to do anything yet.
edit: I'm dumb -- I was thinking of another move. I haven't had an issue against that move yet. Then again, I jump around like a moron.
I'm on both, but I'll most likely be on PS3

Sounds good. I'll message you on PSN or something. Or PM here. What time will you be on?
I'm down to play later this evening. Still ass though.
Yo can somebody breakdown the Faust v Ky MU for me? Learning MUs is hard in GG
Out in the open, Faust is superior. Crouch-Walk under StunEdges and f.S, then poke back. Mostly it's your normals being better than Ky's.
On defense, things won't look good. But that's part of the package when you play Faust.

Ky gets blown up pretty hard by Faust, Millia, and Chipp
He's even or better than everyone else though imo

probably around 10pm est
Yeah- I know the MU in considered in Faust's favor, but I was wondering why. I originally was trying play at near full screen, but it seemed I couldn't do much to stop Ky from throwing fireballs (outside of a risky YOLO rerere). Seems like the way to play the MU then is to stay mid-range where I'm in F.S/drill cancel j.H range but outside the range of his normals?

Has there been any word on when/if a new batch of GGXrd sticks are coming? Or are the persona sticks the only ones available for the foreseeable future?

Tomorrow according to Markman
Sounds like you're figuring it out. Faust's advantage is his buttons and lowprofile/crouchwalk. You can lowprofile his stunedges from fullscreen, but you can't leverage your buttons from there. So you moved the match closer.
I'm thinking with the new RC system, you'd want to be close enough to discourage StunEdges, so he can't YRC them.

What difference does that make for other people wanting to play you? Doesn't cross play make that question redundant?

Thanks for the info. I'll be on the lookout tomorrow for one.

If you're on the same system, you can invite. Otherwise, need to pm the room name/password. Just a minor inconvenience.
I'm on now! I'll see you in a bit
You can invite on PS4? How?

I thought you could... You can't?

May is one of my favorite characters I've ever played seriously. Something just clicked from day one and I'm enjoying her immensely. It's so damn hard to watch matches of her though. Every single May I see plays the same way and does the same combos to the point where the only real difference I can see is people pressing buttons at different intervals. It's making it damn hard to take notes when I'm zoning out every five minutes.
Unless this has changed recently, no. You have to create a room with a location code and give the location code to the person you want to invite to the game

i did not know it had Cross play #AWESOME
Goooing myy waaay!
Faust is fun. I feel like I've to work less hard with him than Sin. I think I might troll it up with him for a bit, lol
Also, I'm hooked on Xrd's challenge and mission training modes. It's like the first thing I jump on. I'd like for combo trainers like this to be integrated into the training mode itself going forward so one could train user-created combos, with maybe an online-enabled library of sorts so people could easily share optimal combos (a similar library for pre-recorded dummy setups/punish training would be awesome too).
What's missing from current challenge mode implementations is visual/auditory feedback indicating ideal timing during playback. That would speed up learning/error correction I feel.
I would spend ALL day in a training mode like that.

I keep forgetting about that site- learning a lot watching (mostly) Nage vs. Ain atm.
User-generated combos has gotta show up one of these days. I await a game that supports the combo equivalent of horse as some kind of online mode.

You ready to play?
On PS3 it says you're offline... >_> so weird
PS3 can't see Vita or PS4 users online.
