Uni thread
is this game good for a fighting game noob?
No game is and any game is
Basically, any fighting game you try will be hard to learn, except for DBFZ but that game sucks
UNIST has a great tutorial though, with character specific combo guides.
Just don't expect to get good immediately. You have to keep practicing.
It's got the best tutorial and a helpful community. The inputs are pretty simple and lenient for learning basic combos and things.
I want to get into this but I imagine that it's relative obscurity means everyone on Yea Forums is a rape god that can place in major tourneys like it is for Slap City and Skull Girls
Nah a bunch of newfags just started playing because of EVO
You'll be fine
Also the best way to learn is to play against rapegods
the recent threads for it have had lot's of new people joining in lobbies and even the regular Yea Forums lobby has it's fair share of lower skill players.
It's very accessible and light on execution, but the real measure of difficulty in any fighting game is the skill of your opponents. I haven't played UNIST in a while, but at this point I imagine it's mostly just people who are good at the game left, though it may be getting some new players thanks to being part of the EVO lineup. I still would recommend it though, I got into fighting games by playing Guilty Gear in the middle of its lifespan and all that was left were people far beyond a beginner's level, but I still got into it and I love the game now, just know that you will likely lose a lot, but you'll be able to stick with it so long as you enjoy the game enough for losing to be fairly enjoyable in its own right.
the best mindset to have while playing fighting games is not focusing on winning but on learning. If you have fun slowly getting better, fighting games are for you.
My friend has a ps4 lobby up, pass is d
bump
What are some OS I should learn?
depends on the character. The tutorial has good anti throw os options.
How does the network square ranking work? You still need to win 10 times against an oponent from your same color to advance to the next tier?
I thought it was 20 or so but yeah.
Thanks.
Pretty sure it sould be around 10 because yesterday I went to orange in about 20 total matches with plenty of loses.
How much delay do you think is aceptable online? I often get 3-4 with guys from here with the odd 5 frames from time to time. I'm from Mexico though.
Is the story good?
Ideally for me it would be 2-3 but for mexico you might have to put up with a bit more. 5 is when it starts to get dicey to me.
Right now, it's mostly backstory and building up characters, because we've been waiting for the events of "That Night" for like 7 years. Maybe in the next installation we'll find out whose arcade mode story is closest to canon
switch port?
Very unlikely.
are late and late[st] two different games?
yes
UNIB is like World Warrior, UNIEL is like Championship Edition, UNIST is Super Turbo
>Get to orange when the game first came out on pc mostly off people that didn't know what was going on
>Play in some Yea Forums lobbies
>Feel like every other orange square player is a full step above me in terms of skill and system knowledge
Any one else /fraud/ here?
How fast do you find opponents ranked or not in this game? Does it depend at which time you search?
>heels
I don't know why, but this triggers me
We're just going to keep bumping until those thread times yeah?
Why?
Her character is a wannabe dominatrix
I don't play Ranked but pretty much, unless you have friends who play you're shacked to the schedules of others in your region. I can usually find lobbies when I search in the afternoon/evening especially after the EVO announcement, but I'm not very pick about connections.
It's my off day, I'm not gonna play anyway, just posting about the game
do you mean finding unranked opponents, or not using the ranked mode?
No one plays ranked in anime games. Go on player lobbies or Discord
Or just play with Yea Forums
I wanna learn Seth but I'm having a hard time grasping his oki. I'm guessing you just end with 6C into orb and then do a blockstring on their wakeup while the orb protects you? I'm having trouble really understanding how his pressure works or what good ways to open people up are either than jC/2A.
Video examples would be most helpful if anyone has any.

Fucking Akatsuki makes me me seethe so much, holy shit get the fuck off me
>2A stagger pressure is unreal
>6B chop fucks over mistimed low shields
>divebomb attack is fucking safe
>5AA manages to clip neutral tech in corner somehow
>Tatsu ends in knockdown and is actually a good move for air to air attempts
Jesus christ I am mad
what uni is the best for gamers like me?
What the fuck kind of gamer are you? How do you expect us to answer when you give us nothing to go by
half the characters do the exact same thing. just pick the one you think looks the coolest or the hottest
I need an university that will offer a gamer like me a clear path to a career.
Why doesn't DBFZ get threads like this on Yea Forums?
it's kind of boring
Really there are two possible answers
1: People from Yea Forums who play DBFZ don't need the help of threads/discords to get matches due to the larger playerbase
2: People from Yea Forums don't play DBFZ and don't care to discuss it with others
Doesn't 2 also apply to these threads?
DBFZ is extremely boring
Everyone plays the fuckin same and the autocombos are atrocious
I miss Marvel so fucking much
Still trying to pick a main, I narrowed down my first list to Chaos, Orie, and Nanase.
I'm leaning away from Chaos because when I tried some of his combos in Mission mode they didn't feel great, but I do really like that he has (apparently?) a really flexible gameplan.
Any input on those three characters?
People play here all the time though.
Do they though?
wanna play something?
Uh, I mean... Let me think... Yeah, they do. Otherwise these threads wouldn't exist.
It feels like it'd be a lot easier to play multiple characters in this game than it is in Guilty Gear
type UNIST in the archive subject search and try to count all the threads.
Is anyone even playing right now?
I saw this threads hours ago being bumped from near death like 3 times before I came in
whip thread
I did check, one guy does have a lobby up like he said he did. I messed around in training mode a little but I'm not going to play any matches personally. People who are going to play the game will show up soon enough.
I just got off playing in the lobby I posted earlier in the thread.
Ok this is the SECOND fighting game I've gotten into
In GG i figured out how to do some pogo combos with Faust and just tried to land those the whole match
Now I need something similarly braindead and high damage for Phonon
Her bnb include's a charged j.2B that ground bounces, that sounds similair to what your talking about.
Honestly? Its boring. I've played that game extensively during release expecting it to be a fun take on MvC but it didnt have any of the team archetypes MvC had. Literally every team plays a flavor of lockdown assist into blockstrings than something fun. Ironically, BBTAG gave me that feel but that game has its own problems. DBFZ had the dragonball brand that reeled in the DB fanbase, but since its not Xenoverse where you can just mash buttons to win and required actual effort, those guys left after a month. The lack of complexity and variety turned off more hardcore players too
Anyway, UNIST threads on Yea Forums started alongside with GG threads back 2017, but GG got banished to /vg/ because the guy making the thread immediately makes another one after the last reach bump limit so mods deemed it as a general. UNIST threads were controlled and only happens at around midnight, and the discord channels for ot are always active despite low player count so it was a slow but steady growth.
I've never played Orie but I've heard she does big boy damage
I play Nanase and if you want to be hyper aggressive and also have 50/50 mixup setup on Oki play her
Nanase is a shoto character who's easy to play. Chaos is actually easy but requires some mental readjusting on how pressure works. Cant comment about Orie though, I dont like charge characters much
Out of curiosity, is the discord channel the "player hub" you can find by googling or is there a "Yea Forums specific" discord?
nanase is a nice well rounded character. fast run speed, good normals, and her force function gives her unique options since she can float out of her normals. since her FF is a strong option you might find yourself using it too much though because it also uses up GRD which is your prime system resource for defense/offensive plays.
When will these threads get moved to /vg/
I don't know really know fighting game terminology, I only ever played SFIV for a bit years and years ago. But thanks!
The discord channel is the unofficial player hub where people play and post tech
I'm also learning seth and would recommend skimming the guide as well, what I've found is his pressure is a little different than something like wagner because he can't just be plus whenever he wants, you have to respect when it's the other players turn a bit more and get out when your offense is finished. Primarily what I've been doing is using his delay cancels between stuff like 2A and 5B to frame trap and make sure the other player respects my blockstring, then you can abuse his command throw more once they start blocking. You can also try jumping in a lot and punish them for trying to anti air you by delaying your approach with j214 specials or aerial backdash->assault. If they're way too respectful you can try to reset your pressure with 214A/B/C or whatever.
There were a lot of DBFZ threads when it came out but most of the posters moved to generals, I don't think mods ever shut them down. Yea Forums threads can still get a lot of replies but they're usually not to play with each other. You could try it and see what happens.
>early thread
>no lobbies
>mikafags
oki = fucking them up as they get up from being knocked down
50/50 mixup = forcing them to guess what you're gonna do
shoto = plays like ryu and ken (has a fireball, dragon punch, and spinkick)
pressure = keeping em in the corner for as long as possible
charge character = character that has moves that require you to hold a direction for a bit then move to a different direction
time to watch some pro linne VODs to get inspired...
This character confounds me the most
>can hit near fullscreen safely
>can hitconfirm into combos at 3/4th of the screen
>can do damage just fine close quarters
>doesn't really play the uni grd game and shits out damage from any place on the screen
Top Tier.
she is top tier for a reason, user
>A regular thread instead of that falseflagging /vg/ tier shit last night
Thank fucking christ, I worry for these threads after EVO and it's only been a goddamn week.
Your kind don't exist in the game
It was bound to happen.
We can't have nice things last forever after all
How strong is Eltnum in unist?
very very strong
Hopefully the inherent shitiness in Yea Forums's fighting game crowd repel the annoying ones and the hype does out in a bit to return to quiet.
Very
its just low(er) budget fsn
More like lower budget Tsukihime
Who is worth watching?
Are you guys really up in arms about one thread where one person put edition in the first post, it seems a little, you know, unnecessary to get worked up over even if you're against mildly tipping the boat
Frame trap god that gets ridiculous damage off of everything.
nycbrandon, Miller2b, hiari
He did it again like an hour after the thread died. Acting stupid isn't going to help us in any sort of way, retardation shouldn't be allowed.
It did for the first few months. Then the threads just turned into DLC speculation.
I honestly wonder what the devs were thinking when they went with the gameplay plan of phonon.
>lets make a long range character who can also hit hard close range, has a fireball and a ranged dp special
did they want an mvc2 cable tier character that badly? ah well, whatever.
The characters are great but the story is pretty barebones
What's the deal with Eltnum anyway? I don't know shit about Tsukihime admittedly but wouldn't Type-Moon own her?
That's how the jannies and shitposters get ya. One wrong "edition" and /vg/ it is
does anybody actually unironically play Mika except me
>It's very accessible and light on execution
why would you lie to someone like this
Nobody really "mains" her and got that good with her
She's a guest character from Melty Blood, another game made by frenchbread.
She knows she's a guest character and rips on the new characters for being newbies and she even breaks the fourth wall sometimes.
I suggest Seibo from Port 24 and Jikangire from Club Sega Shinjuku.
Hiari's also a good watch. He does netplay streams but doesn't play much Linne on them. He won Destination Fight recently so you should watch those VODs.
Just because maybe 5 out of the 20 characters might be tougher but manageable doesn't mean this game is all that hard.
her names different and she doesnt reference melty blood by name so its okay
Do you know any good Nanase players to watch?
Zawa
Hishigata
Neon
Icekin
Thanks
Hishigata, Zawa, Neon, Tora
hmm
i wonder if there'll be the tatari version or even other characters from melty some time
i want the maids
Thanks friendos
>light on execution
go play Yuzuriha and tell me if the game is easy
Well I didn't see that one. Sure, if the thread goes off naturally and the lobbies are all closed there's no reason to keep one up. But as long as it's a thread about a video game and you don't draw a bunch of artificial attention to it by bumping constantly you should be fine. Especially when the quality of the board has I would say dropped quite a bit from when these threads first started back when the game released in JP. I'll slap someone the next time I see 4 concurrent Fire Emblem waifu threads and I like that series
Retardation shouldn't be condoned.
/vg/ should not be condoned
room when
doesn't need the support so there's no passion in fans to start threads
plus its kind of boring, i mean its mostly a figured out game. characters with similar inputs is fine, but that doesn't mean their combos should too. few characters feel like they really change things up.
Even so, if quality can be maintained, it shouldn't be compromised if possible. Retarded falseflaggers shouldn't be entertained.
Just below the top tier.
Jack of all trades who is comfortable at any range. Take advantage of this to open your opponent up as their health bar explodes if she touches them.
what an awful pho pallette
:^)
I'm practicing Nanase 3-2 in Mission mode but having some trouble. Sorry if the notation is wrong:
2C 236B C IC-jC IC-j2C land j8C (...)
How do you stay on the same side of the enemy after after the jumping down-C? I find that whenever I land afterwards I switch sides, but the demo video shows that you stay on one side.
is it possible to git gud without learning all the fancy ass fighting game terminology? like when people start throwing out numbers and letters i just get confused
>mikafags
I haven't busted this picture out in a literal year
>Being bodyblocked by numpad notation
It's literally just shorthand for your normals, specials, supers, etc user, I don't want to type "crouching C into charged standing C into reverse dragon punch B into blah blah blah" to share combos
Maybe, but you'll end up learning it if you stick with it.
wow now you're not retarded
We have some Nana players here but I don't know if any are in the thread. If I had to guess it's something with your timing. For the record though we denote increase with brackets around the button. ie 6[b] for elts charged overhead or in your case j[C]. maybe check the Nana discord resources?
I'm having fun but it's really hard to learn a new game when you are a fucking retard like me. Do you guys have any Eltnum player worth watching?
It's not that difficult:
7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3
7 = up+left,
8 = up,
9 = up+right
etc.
Senaru.
Thanks chief
Senaru, magnets, Shaquille Uniel
Now I feel dumb. I can't believe it was this simple the whole time aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
i like the idea behind that image
You memeing fucks
Not really no. Modern fighting game have become combo games and you need the letters and numbers to quickly and clearly explain what the fuck you are talking about to other people. Allegedly there is a legend of dude in Japan who has just been playing Street Fighter 2 for twenty years who just goes around only sweeping as much as possible and beats strong players by just having godlike footsies. But in most modern game that type of damage output is just so inefficient that you would never beat anyone with any sort of skill just doing that.
Animeposting and incompetency just never stops does it
You don't have to be talented user, you just have to be consistently persistent
Thanks brothers
I have trouble imputting dragon punch on dualshock 4
Any suggestions or tips?
Lobby is up
Pass is vee
Just keep doing it. Fundamental execution isn't going to change, the only trick would be pressing forward and doing 2/3 of the hadouken motion since 623 is literally that.
Sure, I'll get beat up for a bit. Then back to the lab.
do you guys think this game will go on sale soon? It seems like fun but given I am a minimum wage part time wage slave it's hard to afford games at full price
it's $30 on PC and $20 on ps4
On PC? Maybe like 5 bucks off
On PSN? Yeah probably
just buy it from a chink key site
I miss when I was the resident retarded mika
what are these key sites you speak of? I have never heard of such a thing
Knowing the trends, I doubt these "mikafags" will stick around.
You'll always be the retarded mika in our hearts
maybe if you'd kept playing mika and not just jumped onto every loli in the roster we'd still think of you that way.
Not like any mikafag keeps playing her for more than 2 weeks.
Once I get this game she will be the only one I play purely because of these nice and cute XD drums
on that note, which character has the best playerbase?
t. every Mika "main"
Sure you will user.
Phonon of course.
Define "best".
Strongest? Most "loyal"? Most willing-to-main-someone-who-isn't-high-tier?
Man I hope kaguya has a playstyle I'll like.
Don't say it like that. People will get the wrong idea.
On that note, any PC lobbies up? It's that time for me so I'll probably throw mine up in a bit if not.
no, try street fighter
unist is full of option selects and very heavy on solid defense. you'll spend 90% of your time just watching your character eat movie-length anime combos.
it's also pretty niche and has no practical ranking system so you're unlikely to find other fighting game newbies online.
>needing ANY text to supplement that image
Come on, you don't even need a triple digit IQ to figure it out.
Definitely not Linne or Mika players.
No one else is really all that obnoxious. I mostly base this on seeing so many people talking about Linne and 99% of them being trash
>Don't say it like that. People will get the wrong idea.
you're right i should be more careful with my wording. It's more accurate to say you like to use lolis, but discard them when you get bored of them.
orie is not a charge character
>I mostly base this on seeing so many people talking about Linne and 99% of them being trash
not their fault linne is bottom tier tho
I applaud them for sticking to their waifus instead of mika guys
you'd be surprised james chen is super anti numpad and he claims its because his brain cannot comprehend numbers as inputs like 3C or 236A
>Linne
>Bottom Tier
What the fuck
>tfw yuzu would win "most obnoxious" hands down if she didn't ward off waifuplayers like her 5C wards off assaults
You don't have a single clue what you're talking about. Are you the same guy who thinks Linne does babby damage?
You still putting yours up? I'd do mine but I've got work tomorrow so idk how long I'm sticking around
Yuzuriha and Hilda deserves awards for driving off the shitters.
Vatista too.
9 pro players from Japan agreed she is way below average. That doesn't mean she is bad, it just means that it takes more effort for Linnebros.
Is this icy or atic? I'm confident I could beat one of you for this.
Its up, pass is vee
I just downloaded this game like 1 hour ago. Hovered through all the characters and liked Nanase's aesthetic the most. Is she top tier or is she a scrub? Feels like she's the shoto of unist.
How does this apply to Icy?
As much as I worship Japanese players I'm always hesitant to take these charts as law, I speak from mostly personal experience since I hate theorycrafting.
based and redpilled, she needs more art though
He can actually play both.
He's miles above those fakeass faggots
I find it hilariously appropriate that he can go farther than most waifuposters.
nope, it's neither of them.
>muh tiers
Just fucking play, jesus fucking christ.
but I thought tk. kuuga can do everything
They're close enough that it generally won't matter. Just learn her if you find her fun.
No user. I just don't want to play characters that's braindead and doesn't let me learn how to actually play the game.
DENKOUGAN!!
Nothing wrong with tiers.
That only applies to the match ups where you can even use Kuuga in neutral.
What's the X axis supposed to be?
Tierwhoring, shaming, and the likes is pretty unnecessary for this type of game. Especially in the average level of the thread players are. Just play whoever the fuck you want and stop crying to the tier-list if you fuck up.
No one used to care about tiers before here
You are in luck then because no matter what you pick you will have to put in effort to win.
My bad, thought I didn't have it set to pass after 3 wins. It's back up, same pass.
I forgot you were in on this smear campaign too.
Picked up this game like 3 days ago, and fuck me is Hilda fun to play. Feels good as fuck to kill people and go OOOHOHOHOHO~
what are you guys hoping for in UNI 2 outside of new characters and typical stuff? something more obtuse and unexpected
I'm hoping for a Nanase vs. Phonon specific theme
Linne doesn't suffer nearly as much as Enkidu or Mika, she's not bottom tier.
How is the PC lobby looking? Might help fill it out in a bit if it needs more players.
Got 3 right now.
More colors where the females have visible kneesocks. Especially Linne who has a few but most of them feel a bit off.
has weaknesseswell rounded
Buff Enkidu alittle bit. Stylish mode controls so my casual friends don't feel left in the wayside.
Cool hope it's still up when I'm ready to hop on.
Linne and Mika suffer more or less the same desu. It's not like the gap is very high anyways, the game is fairly balanced.
ahh I remember the first game,
fun shenanigan people came up with,
linnfinites.
youtube.com
I don't agree with that.
But exactly, the game is decently balanced outside of a few completely skewed match-ups, tier list discussion be damned if it just alienates players from playing who they want.
What the fuck is this >we wuz og mentality and shit? Holy fuck chill the fuck out, people are actually trying out the game,asking questions and all you do is sperg up.
Tierlist posting never brings anything good to be fair.
Tonight is going to be a bad night. I had the worst night sleep in a very long time and It's definitely going to affect my play.
what i'm not trying to disparage you. I'm just saying you like to handle your joystick and exorcise your fingers while there's a loli on the screen.
Man Dia's dashblocking is really good. I get really impatient while fighting him because of that.
Well, it works. I usually don't expect zoners to start getting aggressive until I force them closer to the corner.
That's gotta hurt
Yep, gonna be a very bad night
probably not delaying the J[2C] enough but you'll never really use that anyway. Instead do
2C 236BC j[C] j[2C] j236a land j5a j8a jbb j2c ender
This can be a bit tricky to get the timing down at first but its pretty core nana. Play around with different starter too to get a good feel of how this changes with proration.
I will not sit here and take these slanderous remarks.
Then get off of PC and fight him then
>raw IW
He’s growing stronger
Does any character in this game have character-specific IWEXS?
Like say Relius from Blazblue's Astral Finish or Dizzy from Guilty Gear's Instant Kill?
Fuck me I can't even think
No
Next time the PC version is on sale i'll pick it up so we can fight again.
Gord has a unique voice-set against Wagner, that's mostly it
fuck you I'm proud of that
holy fuck I need to practice my blockstrings I'm 99% spaghetti
As expected of Poverty Fighter (which is fine). I guess we should be thankful for some character specific intros.
Hope we get more of those in the next iteration.
>broken is out of blue hell
Now we just need blue to get out of it too
damn pc lobby exploded
Oh my fucking god. it kicked me out.
Is that normal for the pc port?
>7/8 on PC
Woo
ill admit that got me pretty good
Never said it was a bad thing. That move does a dick load of dmg raw
Who's the most honest character?
Ah shit, good use of the grd dia. You got me
Enkidu
Honesty is a meme anyway
Go back to /ggg/
I get back and the shit exploded, nice.
Unfortunately it's not exactly unusual for either version.
I would if I didn't make the lobby and if I didn't have a burning hatred of phoneposting.
We got a fair chunk of new phonons for you to whip into shape too. I need to see if I can stall you out again.
>PS4 only has 6/8
EVO is impressive
>$20 on ps4
no it isn't
what's the fastest overhead in this game
It makes sense. Players have something to look forward, and you don't feel like you're jumping into a dead game.
You can probably find a physical copy for cheaps. My local GameStop had it for 15 bucks
What makes Enkidu weak? I think he's cool so I'm wondering what problem could even be there
Probably one of the assault j.a's or an ioh vat drill
6d > 5c, any character
Terrible frame data
Either Akatsuki or Orie
He's what akatsuki was before the gorilla frames transplant
Not on PSN, but I think he's referring to the sale for preowned copies from Gamestop right now.
>Unfortunately it's not exactly unusual for either version.
Oh man that sucks, it kicked me out in the middle of a game when I was getting into it.
mostly it's that he's the shortest range and has to work the hardest to get in. Also once he's in he doesn't have as many ways to reset his pressure like a certain electric gorilla.
He doesn't have huge normals or the speed of Mika
I don’t play him, but from what I’ve played against, his rekkas are somewhat slow and really punishable while his damage is a bit low.
That being said, he’s still viable if you’re able to play him well. His parry, counters and roll are useful for reversing pressure/evading and he has deceptively long reach. If you manage to use those tools correctly you can slowly pressure someone into submission
Sorry PC dudes, I think I'm gonna sit today out as well. I'm still pretty sick and I feel like I've just been doing things randomly without thinking.
>while his damage is a bit low.
I'm sure the Enkidus you ran into mostly just stuck with 5BBB5CCC
Bummer. Was fun watching ya play Melk. Get well soon!
That explains why I was able to even get close to you with mika.
GGs and hope you feel better
You do weird Wald combos hippie.
Literally me yesterday. Ggs tho
So day I'll play this game.
Let's be real, if you haven't already, you won't.
Admittedly it hasn't happened to me in a while, but I've had enough room crashes to not be surprised. I can't really speak for if they're still happening to hippie's lobbies as often.
The usual "crash at 2:30AM" hasn't really happened for months outside of like 3 occasions.
>tatsu into cs into tatsu
Is there anything Akatsuki can't do? Cool stuff there Beatie.
am I the only one who feels cool for being part of the FGC community?
>fgc
>being cool
Look bro, we may be buddies and love playing games with each other, but the fgc is nowhere near being “cool”
>the fighting game community community
Don't forget we're still just dudes playing video games at the end of the day.
Thx bby
chesto
Maybe lag is having a bigger impact than I thought. Had a lot less execution issues when I was messing on PC online yesterday. Too many times I hit a stray 2B and I think I hit 5B or 236B clap and it just never comes out.
I should find a Ethernet cable and see if that helps.
Also congrats on purple Mag.
thanks. this is actually my second time to hit purple though. hopefully this time i can stay in purple for more than 14 games though.
Certain aspects are cool. But just "being" a part of any community really isn't that cool. Working hard on something and being recognized for it is cool.
ah fuck I'm late for my daily pounding into the dirt!
Holy shit lamp is so much better than last time I saw him. I'm back to being bottom bitch in PS4 lobbies.
Well that was interesting. Used C teleport at the end there yet I got caught on the ground
might have TKd it accidentally
Wald 4B catches people in the air too
I will work hard to be recognized as the worst player in the most games in the FGC.
Fuck me I'm tired, thanks for the games bros. Sorry for being a retarded caveman, I'm still trying to shake off the Melty mindset.
I gotta say, after playing this game for almost a year with a tiny playerbase, it warms my little heart seeing all these new people play and discover how fun this game is. UNIST really is the little game that could.
Also I’m glad I picked it up just when it started to get popular lololololol
Damn hippie makes that matchup look doable but fuck if I know what to do against Hilda. Gotta get perfected at least once a night.
>lololololol
GGs broski. Til next time!
The match-up only really works because I have experience fighting Hilda and even moreso because icey is generally pretty predictable. It's an uphill battle no matter what and you really need to know what to be doing on the defense and in the offense to crack that bitch open since hitting Wald is so easy. So get real used to """""dashing""""" in against her until you're at a range where 66B or 236A can swat her, get her to block, and then try to get something done.
Remember,
Don't
Respond
>rwa IW
Didn't expect that to land.
Right. Dashing. Does Wald even have a dash?
Kidding aside I know I assault WAY too much, it's a bad habit I need to break.
if beatie parried that would he have to had parry multiple hits or only 1 time?
Good question. Not sure how Aka's parry works. I've seen Yuzu and Enkidu parry alot of hits in succession before so you'd think it'd be the same.
I thought it was gonna hit me as soon as the cut-in animation finished but I mistimed and ate it lol. That’s what I get for tryin to be fancy.
Anyway, ggs as always bros. Good luck with the grind
That pathetic little lurch forward is his dash, there's no real way around it because icey loves pressing 5C on both his characters which both happen to be anti-airs.
And yeah, don't assault so much in that match-up either, it's just asking to get clipped.
ggs i respect the effort
GGs! Nice try attempting the parry and thanks for the fun fight. See ya next time!
I still can't grasp "stand up" when I see an assault coming.
That Orie color that Mage is using would be perfect if her hair was a pale blond instead
Linne’s invinsable during the first spin, but if you parry the second swing aka’s counter will land and stuff the super
Good to note, guess I lucked out this time haha.
I chose it more for the dress than the hair.
This Yuzu mirror match is quite the spectacle. Also I'm surprised at how many good Yuzu players are on PC.
Actual footage of Wald mirrors.
I need to learn some fucking patience, getting too antsy and need something on screen.
Yuzu is the real "shape up or ship out" waifu
I played a ton of Enkidu so patience was mostly drilled into me the hard way. Wald just has the slightly better advantage of command grabs and fuckhuge buttons to try something.
I kind of like it as is. it's like an Alice in wonderland color scheme
Isn't it the Ky color?
GGs i'm gonna duck out a bit early tonight. got a lot of good games in already.
>play sfv for 1 year just learning karin
>never felt any satisfaction
>literally just been playing unist nanase for 3 hours

Holy fucking shit not memeing but unist is the best tbqhdesu
GGs
>dia with that CVO tech
How could he be so cruelhouse
GGs broheim. Fun times!
How do you guys do the instant downward commands from a jump? Like an instant j.2C or j.236C?
I'm having trouble getting these down in Orie and Nanase's missions. The most luck I've had has been jumping then rotating the stick all the way around into the direction/motion.
Same here. I started out with SF4 and 5 and it was okay but I was never drawn to it outside of it being Street Fighter. This game is really satisfying to do stuff in even though I'm trash at it, and learning the missions and basic combos is really enjoyable even if it takes a long time.
Think we'll get new characters announced at EVO?
I need to rep my region properly through overuse and abuse of CVO like everyone else.
Also, I somehow managed to fuck up the followup. The optimal route I found is literally just my TK Kuuga route.
Ah hilda's buttons suck so much against wald when he's near her. She can't do jack
I finally got a command grab after a blockstring.
Im growing stronger. Now I just need to not drop these fucking combos and we might have something. Might need to start doing j.B>j.C>>j.6C instead of j.A>j.B>j.6C since it keeps whiffing.
No other time for them to be announced honestly
Hilda's buttons suck against anyone up close
What are the requirements needed to do that burst thingin the middle of a combo? Vorpal + 200 meter?
j.2[x] seems as easy as jumping, letting go of the stick and pressing down really quick.
stuff like j.236x is really done like 2369x
is hilda lower tier? i'm willing to put in the effort to learn her, but I might lose some motivation if she's weak
Vorpal + 100 meter
She's fine if you can keep people out
She dies if you can't, simple as that
She's only lowtier if you can't use her properly.
Tiers really don't matter at your or most of this threads level.
>Might need to start doing j.B>j.C>>j.6C instead of j.A>j.B>j.6C since it keeps whiffing.
It's really distance/character-size based. Just comes with playing
actually UNI does have some combos that call for a 9214 which is pretty rough until you get used to it.
Characters with fullscreen normals like her are top tier are your level. Go for it.
AAAAAAAAAAA I hate fighting phonon even as yuzu
Not sure off the top of my head, but tiger knee'ing a 214 would just be 2147x. The idea is to lead the motion into a jump so you do it almost as soon as you hit the air.
Do I need to keep holding down jump until I jump or will a single press get buffered in? I usually end up being too slow going from the jump to the down so the combo drops or I go up too high.
I regret selling my ps4 copy of this. raisin was fun. Hopefully they do a ps4 port of the latest version
Unist seems more forgiving in button presses than SFV user. Literally just press down and spam [x] after a jump. Timing charged jumping buttons is what I'm having a hard time on nanase.
Idk about Orie's, but I just did all Nanase's today and my best advice is to buffer the jump during 3C so it comes out immidiately and gives you more time to input 2c right as you leave the ground
>fucked up my combo twice
>could/should have won that round
I want to die.
when phonons 3c is longer than all of yuzus specials
Orie's 4-10 has a spot where you have to j.c into 214B, but you have to jump forward, and you can't TK into 2149 for obvious reasons. that's what i meant by a spot needing 9214.
Don't worry my phonon is ass and I don't play her or anybody too many times in a row.
Which missions are you stuck on? I think if we're talking nanase you can just buffer it if timed right.
Phonon hates Yuzu guys too. can't mindlessly hide behind 4b since a teleport whiff leaves me wide open.
I know that doing all of mission mode and THEN hopping online sounds most logical but sometimes some of those optimal combos just aren't meant to be done for newer people. At least in my case I didn't really finish mission mode and went online to get real match experience and then came back months after and breezed through them all.
I'm probably not the only one but people learn differently and learning how to feel the game helps a lot. Like I couldn't do Seth's 4-2 mission for a while but just a month after playing him hap-haphazardly online was enough to do all his missions.
You can still tk it if you go straight to 9 from 4.
Aaand I got sniped out of the air. Fun times hahaha.
ggs everyone. I think that's enough games for me tonight. Catch all of you later.
Holy fuck, it feels so bad missing a dash block.
GGs
I just realized, I think orie is the only character I haven't willingly tried to play at this point, and I don't know jack shit about her.
With Nanase I think I stopped on 4-11. It's not exactly the same but it's one where you do 3C into B+C into air fireball.
Orie's was 4-12 where it goes C, forward jump cancel j2C, 214A.
I've been thinking of doing that, or at least hitting up the arcade/story/cpu mode before going online. I'm mainly doing the missions because even if I can't do the specific combos, I want to get an idea of how their combos work and what they look for.
It also gives me stuff so I can practice my trash execution. I still can't shoryu or dash left consistently, though I've been getting better at it.
Shield the Hilda pillar for a actual chance to poke out with a special or reversal.
Don't respect that shit all day.
Til next time! If this is Dia, thanks for all the Linne advice!
GGs.
Good games man, shame we only got to do 2 matches
Can you block? if yes, then she's a monster.
In case if you haven't guessed, 236x is never safe with Wald. I wouldn't try it upclose unless you're really banking on someone trying to jump or throw something out.
What does Linne's spats smell like?
Hyde probably washes them so I doubt they smell
Where are all these accidental 623's coming from? I know I know my inputs.
stop being gross
As the prospect of more gorilla arm slap fights sound, i'm gonna bow out.
I wish I could get out of work on time once this month so i can get more games in, but tax season is absolutely pillaging my store.
GGs all, ill get more than one win by next week or your money back.
Girl juice.
Personally i find her combo rhythm really fun. her ender xx->214B->2C->4C->214BA has a nice pacing to it once you get used to it.
Thanks for the games, pc lobby.
Yeah, those are supposed to be 412369B, but im fucking up the input.
They smell like spats.
ggs
assuming you were the eltnum you've improved pretty fast
Does nobody play Hyde around here? Can the main character of a game actually be unpopular?
Hippie used to play him but he gave up on him.
He's a lot harder to play than he looks.
Hippie mains hyde, but he got tired of playing just hyde after about a year of doing so straight, so now he's working on other characters.
I just wanted to play mullato smallhands mcpunchyman. Too bad that giving an user a shitty 10 frame battle is doing worse on my conscience than getting bodied ever will. I'm sorry
i wouldn't go too hard on nana's missions. Really you only want to learn the timing for air links like
j[c] j[2c] j236a land j5a jbb j2c
the timing for this changes slightly based on what you started with and for some starter it wont connect at all. Other then that just going with a j[c] jbb j2c ender route is fine for starting out. Learning the range of your normals and playing with her fireball and oki game.
I used to use him as a secondary in UNIEL, but forgot how to play him as I started to get back into blazblue before coming back to UNIST
Ronald Weasley...
j[c] j[2c] j236a land j5a j8a jbb j2c *
Also i really need to learn backwards tk fireball. jump back fire ball is so slow
I wonder if I should hate myself for laughing
Yep, that's me, thanks. Hopefully I'll have a bit more time to grind with you guys tomorrow, but right now I need to go. I'm learning a lot about everything and everyone so I'm having lots of fun.
He's actually pretty rough combo wise. He does have one of the best stagger pressure in the game.
GGs Java. Thanks for the fun matches!
What makes him difficult?
He seemed sort of straightforward to my noob eyes outside of having to delay the rekka different amounts for each combo.
GGs
The basics look straightforward enough. I just never found her interesting enough. That and I have dumb pride for some reason that discourages me from wanting to pick up characters other people play with exceptions to easier characters everyone plays like gord and mika.
Apparently double fireball inputs, 66C, and rekka delay timings are tough for some people to wrap their heads over.
He's hella straight forward and has a bunch of tools but I guess nobody really likes his style. I adore it because I think groundflame is the sickest shit and rekka delays feel great to do. Big damage numbers also appeal to me
Oh please. I've play him enough that it sometimes gets boring setting people up in the same frame-trap.
You have to be a hit confirm god to use him and know tons of combos. Characters like Yuzu or Hilda are a lot easier than him.
Personal opinion though
I may have picked her up just because i like Saori Hayami
Damn I got fucked that last round. GGs
2b>3c>6b used to fuck my shit up trying to do it as i would always just do 236b then. otherwise just confirm everything.
I couldn't do double rekka combos like you and it pissed me off too much. Also my neutral is ass and after fighting you my hyde looked like he was going in slow motion.
You're getting scarier though, keep it up.
GGs
Yeah my Yuzu still isn't 100% like I thought. Thanks for the reminder hippie. Gonna stick with Hilda a little longer I think.
You get one circuit, zelda.
I didn't start out that way either. I just learned better, replicated what I saw from arcade videos, and just went through a lot of experimentation. Plus I think I backdash way too much for my own good.
I mean, both you and icey are oddballs. Brain turned out just fine with his Hyde.
Ah, I think I'm starting to fall off now. GGs pc bois had a lot of fun.
Thank you all for the matches.
ggs man keep up with the grind
The guy who makes the thread is the Hyde player
GGs
I haven't played Hilda in forever, and damn right when I get on it's ending.
GGs friend. See ya next time!
Good games everyone, my Hildy still needs a lot of work since I don't really understand how to rebeat with her properly or keep someone under pressure but I'm getting there slowly. At least DMC 5 is out on Friday so that's gonna be a good day, see you all next week.
Trust me, I'm well aware of how weird I am. I'm still going without a main and apparently weirder is the fact that I am hesitant to watch stuff over just getting my ass beat until I get it which is the opposite to a lot of new people from what I understand and hear. Wanting to watch and lab all day and don't want to take as many licks.
GGs
DMC5 unlocks at midnight for me tomorrow so depending on things go, I might not be around for too long. We'll see given how threads pop up lately. I only ask that people don't advocate those threads with /vg/-tier shitpost OPs
just how many of us are dipping early tomorrow?
>the trade for double ko
It doesn't happen often, but when it does, it's awesome.
If thread cohesion demands it, I will stay.
that match was pretty nutty just wanted to try out akatsuki
ggs pc lobby
ggs
Void had it for around 30 bucks for pc a couple days ago when I bought it.
>Yuzu
Isn't she supposed to be one of the hardest characters?
That's just propaganda.
don't listen to icy
Icey can play Yuzuriha and Hilda but can't play any other character.
Plus he probably has brain problems
Don't talk about my brain problems on a public image board.
Alright we're both just killing time at this point. Gonna stop wasting your time after this one.
No problems here m8. I enjoy getting to play the rest of the roster too instead of just focusing on a select few. GGs and thanks for the great matches! That is if you're Brav0man.
GGs!
Dammit, picking a main is the hardest part.
Just pick Yuzu
I am, just thought I'd keep the names between ps4 and pc similar from here on since people kept thinking "brav0man" was a new person. GGs
Tell me about in.
Who's playstyles/character personalities are you interested in the most?
Ah I see, I'd change my name too but I don't wanna confuse my other Steam buddies. I go by sairoux123 in the PS4 lobbies. Let's fight again soon!
I've done the early combo missions on almost everyone so far, the ones I'm liking the most so far have been Seth, Orie, Gordeau and Wagner. A few others like Hilda, Nanase, Vatista and Merkava also seem cool though.
Don't rush yourself.
Might want to try them out in actual matches to see if you like how they're played outside of just combo routes.
That is certainly lot of characters you like. Is there anything personality-wise you like about any of those characters then?
That may help you stick it out with them longer, assuming the one you invest in is one of the more difficult characters like Seth or Vatista.
The waifufag in me really likes Orie, but the edgelord in me really likes Seth and Gordeau.
Oh shit I didn't realize that was you. Most of my steam friends are just some old IRL high school buddies, except for the ones I've added through here.
Look up some high level play to see who has the coolest shit you want to shoot for, get a feel for them in some matches to see if they "fit," you. Do an arcade run or chronicle to see if you like their personality. All things I've been told and they usually work for most.
But Seth and Gord aren't edgy. Carmine is edgy.
>Seth
>wears all black trench coat
>reverse grip twin daggers
>*teleports behind you* gameplay
>not edgy
>Gordeau
>also trench coat, dark purple instead of black (still pretty close)
>giant anime scythe
>monster claws
>not edgy
>secondary who hasn't read the story
Figures
>Seth
Mopy
>Gord
Smug
>Carmine
>throws his own blood
>hurts himself doing it
>laughs at you
>taunts you
>EDGY
It's all in the personality. Ragna isn't edgy despite looking like he jumped out of a middle schooler's brain.
Carmine being the most edgy doesn't invalidate everyone elses edginess.
>sounds like a pothead in english
Who cares about the english, it's shit
But Seth isn't edgy at all, he's the opposite of it. Go read his Chronicle if you don't believe me
Carmines out for the fun of it.
Seth is a kid who never got to be a hero and Gords the chillest motherfucker in the entire series.
I know, isn't it amazing?
>mfw I finally heard that shit
I still stand by and think most of the cast sounds good in English. Especially Hyde, Yuzu and Gord.
Edgy can refer to multiple things. Even if he doesn't have an edgy personality his appearance and gameplay can still be. It doesn't have to just mean evil and mean.
I don't even think his design or personality are even edgy.
I'll give Gord and Hyde a pass. Yuzuriha wasn't all too great. Then again, dubbing girls are way harder
Everyone's definition of edgy is too personalized these days. It's hard to tell what people are trying to get across, it's almost like what chunni is supposed to mean.
When the English is good, It's real good
youtu.be
It's not that good. His dialogue lines are fine, his battle lines are still pretty lame. Chunni in japanese always sounds better.
wait a god damn second is that enkidu in the back between chaos and bitch
>Then again, dubbing girls are way harder
I swear to fuck we will never get moe right, every time a loli gets dubbed it makes me want to pull my hair out.
I ordered a copy before it got announced for Evo and it still hasn't arrived. Game looks really fun. Any top 8s or other tourney footage I can watch in the meantime?
Go read the story if you don't want to get spoiled.
No that's someone else
Enkidu is part of their group though.
If the girls are smug they can usually do it pretty well. Luckily most of the UNI girls are smug as hell.
youtu.be
Is a PSN lobby up?
Nah
Read if you're that curious
Closed for the night
Sounds alright, saying "big sis" in english will always sound awkward compared to onee-chan though.
Aw goddamnit I need to wake up earlier.
That's just one of those things that will sound awkward no matter what they decide to do since 90% of the time we're addressed by name directly in english.
But why would I ever not choose japanese voices
You wouldn't. I'm just saying they did a good job with the eng choices.
youtube.com
This channel has some good matches, You'll have to do some digging for anything specific since our keep on rockin stopped updating ages ago.
As good as they could I guess.
Hey that's Futaba from Persona 5. And Zoe from league of legends.
And Linne is Peacock from skullgirls, Jinx from lol.
is the pc lobby still up?
He's not chiller than Roger.
Much thanks user.
That website chainshift.com is pretty useful for looking up specific matchups to see how your main puts up with certain characters.
thank you chainshift dev
