Chie is the worst waifu

If it was $10 for everything I would probably pay up, but it's so overpriced I don't want to buy anything and encourage them.

480 + 480 + the five navigators voices that are hard to unlock at 240 each comes to 2160 MSP or $27.

I was tempted to buy some, just the glasses and the extra colors for Chie and whomever else is in that pack, but saw the prices and decided against it.

I actually prefer the no-glasses versions of the characters and the original colours so it was a no-brainer for me. If they ever add new stages, characters or music, I'll be all over it though.

Yeah no, but for real, why did he... *sees Fighting Game topic*... oh shit, ok, that's true.
Ok then. ^^
Didn't really like the guy, but he was... entertaining to watch. The way his channel went down confirms both my impressions.

I'm tempted to learn her just for the fact she is a faster paced s.lab with actual combos

S.Lab has combo's.

Those titanomachia ones are pretty nice. The only 6k one I saw was at the end though for 150 heat.... :/

Well, at least she has good setups with Aterius/Asterios/whatever.

Change is good though. You can't play a single character for too long.

I'm surprised I've stuck with Labrys for this long. Usually I jump to a new character every week.

Since Teddie's circus ball is a projectile, can't Akihiko weave through it?

Same goes for the barrel or meteors.

I haven't played in ten days, I played a few player matches and got my ass handed to me all day. Looks like I'm starting from scratch. :(

Correct, which means I'm basically fucked against that super. Fuck Teddie. :| *snaps the disc in half*

Yea thanks Onemic, I was practicing those smp loops the last two days and I know 4 but barely got any chances to get you in em since you would burst or just be crazy blocking all my mix-ups.

Ya those first 5 matches I was just trying to learn Naotos mixups and reaction to her AOA(which I still suck at), which is why I wasn't doing anything. Your Naotos really scary man, her ability to go on offense and keep pressure is crazy. her defense is top notch too, I have to play you like Kanji, bait all day.

Yea one of my other friends plays Naoto and we play completely different. I always want to rush in I guess cause I've played too much KOF and Akihiko, so I'm really aggressive even if I shouldn't be. But, it was fun playing you.

oh aki is your main? your Naoto is much better. Aki's Dp isnt that good either so it was really easy to bait.

GGs xCobalt, this was actually the first time I played a Naoto, still have a lot to figure out
Click to expand...

Ggs, I need to put more time into this game. Gotta try and land some more damaging combos rather than just keepaway. Were there any particular block strings you were doing that were punishable? It always felt like I was counter hit every time I tried to do something.

Good stuff RoeBear.
I definitely need to work on my inputs more, so many times I get Persona calls instead of throws.
And I really wish Dualshocks had that octagonal gate. That match where I got hit with your Naoto's kick after running up to you (which registered as a jump instead of back) made me so freaking salty.

Also absolutely love playing games with you.
Those delicious 3 bars.

Yea kinda switched mains Naoto's loops are just too tempting. I love doing em but I get pretty mad when someone bursts out of them. I mean people should just take the 7k damage imo.

I save my Bursts just for those.
I'll take everything else, even if it kills me...

And you were great at getting me with your Furious Action.
I always thought I could bait them out and then get you afterwards, but nope, you always had to wait like that second before using it.

Yea that three bars is awesome considering my connection is actually horrible. It makes me really happy to see green instead of yellow and purple for connection. and good games

Honestly watching good Naotos makes me want to side her. You can literally play any way you want.

You didn't let me get my 6K FC combos either. Naotos DP makes it really hard to do even with correct spacing. I say we both let us do it on each other and see who comes out standing.

Lol trap setup one more burst that i know does 9k sooooo if you wanna try it that would be like doing a first strike duel with your FC combo, we'd both have like 200 health

Yeah naoto's normals aren't that good, so she's quite vulnerable to frame traps like that. Definitely work on better counter hit combos, you blocked a few of my overheads and I got away with very little damage.

I avoid unsafe pressure with akihiko, and I usually try to OMC my blocked overheads and dash straights

As a rule of thumb, instant blocking the kill-rush usually gives you an opportunity to counter the follow-up. Mashing 5a is not a good idea unless you're anticipating a throw or cross-up follow-up. Rolling works against the more gimmicky mix-ups like overheads or charged hook.

Id be willing to. 6K FC combo in the corner leads to a reset or oki situation so it's fair game :p
