Pass is vee
Mic checks were good and I even wrote down the team orders.
Still got that open spot?
Guy from last night asking
Gimme a name to write down in the case our conditional 20th guy reports that he's unavailable
Frankentank
Or do you want my PSN?
>Both 20th people could be Wald players
Oh fun.
I'll jot it down
As long as you show up on the right time, it doesn't really matter. I have a pen and paper "bracket" and I just used challonge to get names down.
>both 20th people could be amazingly good Wald players
FTFY
Behold
ZONER WALD
Shit, I didn't want seth
Mika heads have been purchased, assuming no road bumps occur, they'll be ready for EVO.
That's terrible news.
Also if you wanted to commentate, just message icey or show up a couple minutes before to calibrate your mic
What time is it on Sat again?
11:30PM Central Time. Same time these threads always start
I did a stream test with my mic earlier today so I'll be good to go saturday.
Got it, will show up
Guess basto doesn't need to worry about messaging me later.
You gonna respond to the Challonge message or what? So I can put it to bed.
I did, 10 minutes after I got it in fact.
But what about Lainlain?
Fuck off
Ahh I didn't get an alert. Perfect.
pclobby is up
kw pclobby
That charged jump attack of Wald's is a menacing attack.
Holy shit that Wald damage
It's good shit
Shield it and mash
Damn sorry about the delay.
I'll try.
Was that 70, 80%? All that red life bar was wild.
There was a reset somewhere in there because the damage bar on the 2nd combo was reading around 2.8k
Play dengeki bunko
I hit you with the reset 214[B]
It's a really fucking high damage starter
Well whatever Frank did, it was mad impressive.
Not him, but it was certainly crazy!
Remember kids, if Wald does too many 4Bs in a combo try and mash something out, or expect to get raw command grabbed
>raw command grabbed
Is it really raw if it's a gold throw
If the Wald player is expecting you to try mashing out of a reset attempt after 4B are they more likely to just continue the combo or go for something else that beats the mashing?
People expecting the combo to continue will just sit there. I've scummed a bit with the B command to know a couple tricks
Wald's got a few options
4B 214A(A clap) into reset 360B will CH a lot of mashing and become a real command grab
4B 236B(overhead swipe) is not real at all and can be mashed
He can also try to frame trap with 214[B] which leads to hella damage
Or he can just finish the combo
Note that the first option will also blow up shields so trying to shield the reset is risky
Sounds good then. Will the tourney be recorded somewhere?
One of our guys will be streaming it
Dang, I don't think I've had such a good run like that in months. I think I just used up all my good luck!
sorry for being such a shitter, guys
Everybody was once at where you are right now so don't beat yourself up too much.
Just keep showing up and learning and you'll get better guaranteed.
You can't be worse than me. Just keep trying to improve.
Closed, no one showed up. What a shame.
Seth vs Chaos is a pretty crazy matchup visually.
Effects happening all over the place.
That's the first in a long while
I don't know how I failed to block that sweep dang
I think I might be crazy but I think Azhi auto-corrected to swipe me with the 236A despite the side-switch
If you want company I can hop over for abit. Not sure how long I can stay depending on something that might happen in the future.
Yeah, there were a few odd happenings, was hard to keep track.
God dammit I tried to IW back during the gap
I was afraid that was gonna happen too. Guess my luck has yet to run out, haha.
>can't connect to room again
Would reseting my modem work? I can connect with other people online but these rooms don't wanna work with me.
Room is full
I tried multiple times when it said there were 7 in it. Or is the menu not updating as it should?
You guys really need to start killing the lizard when the opportunity presents itself
You want my spot? I'm just kinda loitering while eating. Try it riiiight now.
Could be not updating, right now it's full. Want to try hosting a Lobby 2?
That dude's a pain in the neck since he can be used to attack while Chaos guards. What attacks are most effective to Azhi? Just long pokes?
Still can't, an instant disconnect.
Made a room to find out.
Dang tonight isn't going to be a good night for connection I think. That's the worst I've seen it.
B and C normals destroy Azhi. The recovery of most the attacks is significant enough to punish after blocking.
Huo is a bro
The usual side-switch shenanigans might not work against 360s
Sweet, I'll head over after one more go in the main lobby, shouldn't be too long.
So similar to Seth orbs then? Gotcha.
Literally anything can destroy seth orbs.
The comparison you want is Byak webs
>Ever so politely give up my spot
>The reward is numerous shield bashes to the head
Ah right on, guess I had a mental block on those things because of how mindbreaking getting insta-cornered from one confirm can be.
I can try to remember how to hyde if you want.
Man Linne mirrors are some silly shit
Naw dude, gimme your best. I'll take each shield bash with pride.
Nice way to end my run in Lobby 1, haha.
GGs m8s! Headed off to Lobby 2.
Or not...!! Haha, gonna try resetting my PS4 and stuff and see if this communication error stuff gets fixed.+
I'm curious
Post your top 3 unist songs, no order

Just waiting for it to happen at this point

Darn, looks like I'm incompatible with Dash tonight. Was early of me to call it GGs after all.
>Vat
>screamsinwag.jpg
Wanna try making your own and us migrating?
I'll give you my top 3, in order:
Cross Thought
Beat Nest
Blood Drain Again
and my bottom 3, also in order:
nanase theme
Sure, it seems my plans have been cancelled anyways so I'm good to keep playing for longer.
My fireball senses return to me
Forgot to say be right back as I go grab some water.
I only know of Mika's Theme
>liking Phonon theme
lmao
All set up now whenever you guys wanna try migrating.
The real question is whose song is the worst? My vote goes to Merkava pretty much instantly.
>can't connect to sai
>but now can to hippie
Unfortunately I'm starting to get a headache so I'll leave for tonight. GGs huo and sei.
>EX swordcar got duffed by Chaos 6B
Wait I thought that was projectile invincible
I think Carmine might be the weakest
Er, 6C
Looks like it's you and me that are incompatible then, sorry about that!
Ggs
I know his regular 6C is a projectile but is the buffed version that reflects also considered one?
>projectile invuln past the first frame
How early did the 6C hit, on start or later in the animation?
See ya dude. Always appreciate getting wagged in the corner.
Not until Frame 2 sadly.
so what lobby am I joining since PC is dead?
>Buffed version
Wait what
Apparently whichever one you can connect to.
Lobby 1 is looking real fucking fierce in competition though
Where was the CVO combo, franky
I am not good at remembering combos
Did I even have vorpal
>Fucked up both regular BnBs and accidentally jumped at the end
Damn I deserved that
I meant the 6C after it reflects a projectile
connections have never been an issue for me. I guess I'll try both.
You did
Oh right, that one
Didja have to go and get Sairoux warmed up? And holy shit, the yellow health buff is real. I will lose whole health bars the minute the other guy hits yellow.
less populated room it is then
ggs. Been playing like shit the last two days. Hopefully I'll be back to snuff for the tourney.
Lobby 1 got me fired up pretty good actually. The competition is fierce there right now if it hasn't changed.
Also, that's a nice Seth you have there Sei. A shame you weren't able to get the IW at the end of the VO combo there. Fun fight!
I should jump a bit more
>A DP into Pale Bringer
I AIN'T FALLING FOR THAT AGAIN
GGs m8. I'm sure things will pull themselves together in time. Thanks as always for the fun mirrors assuming this is Dia.
I'll just EX doughnut you next time
Or will I
>He's yellow, maybe new this can't be that bad
Hahaha, it's a world-class Phonon!
GGs, see you then
It's getting late here, gonna bail
GGs everyone, see you Saturday
play me sober on pad and I'll show you my true power
GGs
See ya then
GGs lad. Til next time!
Whose your main Sai? All the characters you play your good at.
>simple inputs feel much more fast and precise on pad
>but complex movements are much easier to do on stick
Dammit why can't 1 just be best in every way.
The one you're most comfortable with is the best way. Personally I do simple movements on analog and stuff that's too tight for analog on dpad.
Hitbox is the best of both worlds
With another sad showing, I'm gonna take my leave. That splatfest ain't gonna win itself.
I might make a lobby tomorrow, for that pre-tourney cramming.
Just don't attract too much negative attention, you hear
I had fun tonight and got beat up by an Eltnum main among others.
Linne, and nah I'm still learning alot about what this game has to offer.
Learning some basic stuff from other characters has given me alot of perspective about how combo routes work and it's quite fun to learn all different character nuances.
Fleshing out learning to play the game with Linne I believe definitely helped me to get through some mission mode stuff and a few online combo guides on all these other characters on a basic level.
I don't make threads for 'em, that's why I'm telling ya now.
Are you Law or Chaos?
feels good man
Perhaps we could avoid a thread in general since we'll be having one on Saturday to boot.
Just post a time you plan on throwing up a lobby
I figured Order was "no fun allowed" the faction, so I went for Chaos.
Same as always.
>Chaosfags
>in MY thread
Fucking heathens
Only retards pick law
1000 Years of Red and Black
Beat Eat Nest
Unseen Entities
If you just meant character themes, bump off 1000 years and put Monochrome Memory 3rd
The law's for nerds. Strength is all that matters in a lawless world!
>Peter Parker The Sister Fucker
>B Tatsu Chronicles
>a gun
If we're doing openings, End of Dawn is underrated
Seth is so much fun to fight dang.
Fuck, gotta adjust to network lag. Being able to do shit without worrying about input lag spoiled me.
said no one ever
Fighting seth with minimal lag is fun sometimes. Too bad duesta hasn't joined in a while
You made the right choice.
>frank with wald
>basta's chaos is bretty gud
>rk was a damn impressive enkidu
>kaizer still kicking
>duesta and the new guy with seth

I think we got em all
1. blood drain again
2. snow sisters
3. beat eat nest

>50/50
>setup you don't know about yet
>unblockable
I'm good actually
Another Blood Drain

Flames of Destiny
Though I really dont hate any song in the game
I'm assuming PC's empty?
I think most people just find unknown actor to be that much of a step up. That's how it is for me anyways, I don't hate it but it's kinda boring in comparison.
I prefer the chorus
Someone tried hosting, but got no response
Now if only the pc guys were PSN regulars. Also aren't we missing a Mika player and a Gord still?
God damn Clawz
BETA BRACKETS ARE UP BOYOS
I LITERALLY HAVEN'T HEARD OF ANYONE IN MY BRACKET EXCEPT NERDJOSH. THERE MIGHT BE HOPE FOR ME

>tfw this never got used in game
>Mika
Gond still exists, and so does Haruka, even if the latter hardly shows.
You're right on Gord though
>paying to use our own internet
top cuck
Enjoy paying 80$ a year next gen to use your own electricity to power your PS5.
All the non-stop Chaos playing is finally paying off.
>broken has senaru in his bracket
On second thought it's probably good they're not
>there's a PC guy
>yet no lobby
Linne is a fun character I see why you play her Sai. I really like her backdash.
Wow imagine actually getting offended everyone doesn't waste their money on corporate nickle and diming like you.
If we're talking underrated I never see anybody talk about Yaten no Ori.
>2011
Jesus, where does the time go? I remember stumbling onto the old official site for this while I was dicking around back in high school. They were still updating the character roster too.
I mention PC once and someone's already starting shit about it.
Yeah, wish I had it it in me to use it more.
Dia definitely makes great use of that in the corner to bait out stuff for a free confirm. I really like using FF to dodge or roll through enemy projectiles / long moves.
Also yeah she is definitely fun. Glad to see you enjoyed that fun mirror match!
>Try for a cheeky IWEX but shield instead
Alright maybe not, but still baby steps.
well it was already 1 when I joined, I figured if there was gonna be a lobby it would be up by then
Darn that would've been an awesome confirm to beat you in that R2 Raz, haha.
Also, how was your locals experience?
Had 8 people signed up for the tourney along with another dozen that were just playing casually.
I much prefer playing in person than online due to that no lag experience.
I didn't get completely destroyed, but there was a Byak that dragged me to his home every game.
Gonna be going back there every week now and I found out about more local stuff from them.
Don't keep us waiting, what place were you
Any pc stragglers around still? I'm down to make the lobby and play for a while
Congrats on finding a place for offline competition! Sounds like fun times.
Third
Sounds great for your first time there. Nice job!
Told you.
Now grab 1st place next time
Im awake I think theres already a lobby using vee as the keyword right now. At least thats the one I'm in
Nice. How long of a trip did you have to travel to get there?
Gotta note that this Zach guy playing Phonon in Lobby 2 is pretty darn strong.
I'd like to see him fight Mag and Park in the future.
Sup. I'm just gonna play a few games for a bit
Have a vee one up, but I had to step out for a sec. I think my game just froze so go ahead and make one while I get back on.
I'm disappointed in you Pyro ;)
Yeah that wasn't normal. Sorry about that angel, had to shut it down for a sec.
First things first, I gotta get better. Took me at least an hour just to get used to the offline feeling.
Also, next week there's supposed to be more so we'll see what happens.
You were right though, the j.214B's caught them off-guard.
You had me fooled! Hahaha. Things are starting to make sense.
Getting that PS4 fix in before the tourney?
Is that you Mag? Are you the drunk phonon?
I see. Joining now
20-25 mins.
>KyoAni reaction image
Mag still has his PS4. I finally hopped on the one I borrowed since PC was dead. I got to shake off a lot of rust playing casuals over the weekend but some reaction stuff and buffered moves are shaky.
can i join even if i'm an eufag, want to see how bad the connection is
>Didnt get juggled as hard as yesterday
Feels good
I wouldnt know I'm new to this in general
I really should go to my locals but I rather be an online warrior. I should hop on PC more but I prefer to play in these lobbies instead.
lucky star is an imageboard classic, SIR
My first impression on you is already shit
Fuck that cut off in the middle of playing.
EU connection doesn't tend to be generous across the ocean.
No idea about PC connection quality but I doubt it's all that great unless you're on the north end of the east coast
I'll show you classic
Fuck I would have an hour drive minimum but I don't have a car now so I'm looking at 2.5 hours of train/subway rides each way.
imagine being able to tech throws on reaction and block assault in your face and then going back to online and not being able to do either. it's not fun.
it's a painful reminder man
I need to learn not to run in at Yuzu
Still can't react to overheads or grabs fast enough on the defense.
Dats a good one
broken is the premier "walk into my 5C please" yuzu around here
Nothing wrong with a lil train ride.
I kind of wish there was someone like Atic or Hippie there to bully me, but maybe next week.
Likewise for me and Vat. That was a cool small laser into big laser combo!
Another thing that I should've done is go for something a little risky but would be the smarter play of just not use IWEX. Just still keep Yuzu in the corner even more instead of starting back mid screen after IWEX.
time to schleep, see you all Saturday or tomorrow night maybe. ggs.
I forgot how nice it is being able to just leave a lobby that you aren't hosting
GGs Park. Thanks for the fun ones! See ya Saturday and have a good night!
If I'm using a
THIS PARRY SUCKS
It's hard not to try and fit the coolest IWEXS somewhere in a match
Help, how do I fight Eltnum
>How do I fight against a Japanese god
Thanks for the games. Started to lose focus as time went on but I'm feeling more confident in how I play. Soon I'll get that CVO combo in a real match too.
Good Games, sorry for looking more like a shitter this time guys.
That'll conclude it for tonight. GGs everyone, get that practice in between now and the weekend and see you on Saturday. Same time, same place
GGs guys see you Saturday
I'd advise to cool it with ending your blockstrings so short with 6[C] so much
I forgot how much akatsuki tilts me.
Yeah, that's something to work on. Just kinda got into the tech of using 66B during my strings. That's the one thing I need to work on is actually be scary while applying pressure
As an Akatsuki player I also can't stand other Akatsukis
Now that is some impressive Enkidu comboing in the corner.
Never thought about following up 236[B] with 6C before.
It's like you know when I'm looking out for certain moves (mainly 6B) and I hate it, I don't know what's giving me away so much, I've always had that issue with everybody.
Even the "easy" characters in this game seem crazy difficult goddamn.
I think that might be the first double P of the night.
God I am actually retarded and can't do a basic human function to block high.
Good games though
>Thats Akatsuki corner AAAAAA
Okay that was funny
Unless my eyes were pulling tricks on me that is, it is past midnight after all.
>the Byakuya at my local was as good as Sha
>even played similar
>AND used the same color
I know the feel, I can't tech for shit.
GGs pc bros. See ya sunday
Do you think it coulda been? You both have 4 bars connection with me.
the Vat matchup for me boils down to this:
am I winning the cycle or do I have vorpal?->safe offense
am I losing the cycle?->charge grd, passively dash block to force projectiles, shield, force vat to commit to something to take vorpal back
just learn a few BnBs and start playing the system mechanics. that'll make you a better player in the long run
>implying I leave my house for anything but work
no, it was just a fellow spider bro that dares to dream
That's way too many coincidences, but I'll believe you this time.
Like I see the Hilda's overhead about to drop on me and for some reason I can't ever block that. I can block a lot of Nanase's weird vortex shit all day but god forbid Akatsuki 6B or Hilda's Lynch pin pops up my brain shuts off like a cheap Dell computer.
I don't understand myself sometimes.
I just looked up my Evo bracket. I don't see any famous names but I do see a jp name. God I'm so fucked
Just got the game and im maining Egoraptor looking dude
How do I git Gud
>1 pixel hp
I didnt deserve that win
GGs
I'm missing the joke because I never equated anyone to looking like that sellout
based on the number of people that entered your r1/r2 matches at the very least should be free as fuck
you mean the guy with glasses and a big lizard or the big red katana guy
Link me your bracket, you're terrible with names so you might have someone that's worth something beside the japanese dude.
In the case it's only the japanese guy like in my bracket, you might make it out of pools on loser's side
You talking about Carmine? If so, do you have any fighting game experience prior to this one?
If not, he's a tough cookie to start with.
I think he means akatsuki
Just type the name Velt into the search bar
>I would took first round if I didn't retard myself
Why do I do this to myself.
Happens to the best of us.
Akatsuki and no I don't
UNIST just seemed really popular and it was on sale and now i'm really into fighting game stuff, but I suck
Okay, I definitely don't see any names worth recognizing aside from that jap dude.
You're making it out of pools
Two words
Dash Block
I mean, my title is TheProfessionalDumbass for a reason
That's Chinese you idiots.
214B
GGs angel
Sorry about that last bit, relearning shit with mika
It's 3:30AM, sue me
Also, I wasn't aware chinese people played this game
Or fighters in general. I heard of arabian tekken players but not chinese fighting game players
twitter.com
You do know where Kanji comes from right?
GGs pcbros
I definitely feel like I'm getting better but I still have a long ways to go
Don't worry about sucking.
This was the first fighting game I took seriously as a casual masher and now I can put up a good fight with most people in these lobbies and if you stick with it I know you can too.
Also you picked a good starting character for learning the rules of the game with for sure.
docs.google.com
Here's a well documented guide that won't take you too long to read through since apparently Akatsuki's Mission Mode combos are actually quite useful for regular play according to the guide for starting out.
I highly doubt I'll leave pools, even if there aren't known names.
>atic has argenrost in his bracket
>merk has clim
>icey has fucking oshu
LOSER'S SIDE BRACKET SON
gomenasai, the idiot is me
Well
Was still fun
I feel like I'm starting to get the hang of things.
Thanks man this game seems to have a really helpful community
Just turn on the spoilers.
research the dudes you may end up against, see if you can find videos of them playing, eg. this guy it projects making it to the end of the pool
smash.gg
wait who's icey?
Something that really helped me was learning the keyframes for characters. For example, you know how Akatsuki charges up his karate chop and it glows for like almost a second when he does his 6B? Remember that pose. If he gets you in a block string, just keep holding downback and you'll be safe. That way all you'll really have to do is pay attention to overheads and grabs. If you see that keyframe of him about to chop you or you see him assault jump, block and you'll be able to punish it no problem.
It all comes down to paying attention and acting accordingly
Getting close to winning and dropping feels more frustrating than getting perfected sometimes.
One of the best Yuzu players I ever had the honor of meeting
I'll definitely be doing that later. Nice to see the computer has hope for me.
>I'm expected to lose against nerdjosh
>see his tournament performance
I feel slightly insulted
I don't recognize a lot of those names? They any good.
>When you hit shield before blocking high
That sucks.
I'll go ahead and go for the night, tonight's been a very off day for me and I'm doing retarded things too.
There's a ton of resources and the in-game tutorial is really good just like what said. However, if you feel overwhelmed with the tutorials or get tired of them, there's no shame in hopping online and coming back to it. Reading up on info is great but you also should practice playing actual matches
>just keep holding downback and you'll be safe
Oh don't worry, I'm ALWAYS holding downback.
But yeah, I've just never been able to react fast enough to assaults or overheads for some reason, no matter how much I try to train myself for it. Atic's even helped me grind this out for a bit and I just reverted back the next night.
Looks like we gotta meet up by 10AM and coach Dia and broken through their bracket first.
GGs lad. I'm sure you'll have me down and out next time.
Those were some awesome Enkidu combos, far more interesting than the basic stuff I've got.
I keep fucking up that combo online. Dammit.
Ggs m8 we all have off nights also it's great getting the enkidu practice from someone other than Hippie.
Dang, that would've been a sick 1HP comeback if you had the time Raz.
I always forget about the time limit.
Anyways, how good is my chances that they'll still let me register for EVO after sending them an email?
Slim but existent.
No way in hell
Better late than never, try and send them something
I'll yell in lamps ear to teleport
Please don't.
I'll shake as well
you gonna give him a kiss too?
If he wins
Does anyone else want a Senran as a guest character in UNICLR?
That's retarded, no
Might be an unpopular opinion, but I would be happy, unironically.
If it's Homura with Crimson install maybe.
The only guest characters UNI should have are the most poverty of poverty characters, to keep with the trend.
We should put Saber in
Only Yumi anyone else is shit
>Fate
>poverty
There's a better chance of a FEXL guest character
Nah we need someone that uses a bow in this game.
An E's Laf character?
Dang, I don't think I've seen that flashkick CS confirm in awhile. Good stuff Sei.
Is she the poor one or the one with the white eyes? I get Yumi and Yomi confused
Honestly same
Yomi's the poor one, Yumi's the shitty ice princess
She's the current most popular character of the franchise and uses fans for weapons.
And attract even more annoying degenerates? Fuck no, keep em out
Ggs lads I'm done for the night. Thanks for hosting Sai and that's probably the first time I've seen someone play byak like Spiderman.
Perfect princess who saved the Senran Kagura franchise *
He's in.
Aw I like Yomi. But realistically I could only see Yumi, Haruka, Hikage or any popular/outrageous character in.
I don't think we'll be seeing anymore guest characters for a while though. I think one or two in the update should be fine, as long as they're balanced.
GGs broski. Thanks for the fun night! See ya next night!
And yeah Sha's Byak can be pretty scary since he riddles the air with web movement.
I'd argue that Yomi is popular. Pretty sure she always makes top 5 or top 10 in the polls for the games.
She's also one of the main characters in those fanservice games that came out recently.
For something like this, I could honestly only see one of the team leaders being picked, and even then only asuka, homura, or yumi because nobody cares about miyabi sadly
Dang that was another tight ending.
My eyes are gonna bleed if I play any more UNIST tonight, GGs everyone. Hopefully see you all on Saturday, otherwise good luck!
GGs! See ya then! Rest well!
Oh yeah, also meant to mention that I'll be closing up shop at 3AM today since I got work later. Let's have some fun last few matches!
Should probably state the estimated time, 30 minutes!
ggs amigos, it was fun playing
GGs broheim. Always a pleasure. See ya on Saturday!
GGs everybody. Thanks once again for a fun-fillled night!
If there's a lobby tomorrow I might not be able to attend since I've got plans but I'll see ya all on Saturday's tournament for sure!
GGs, thanks for the beatdowns.
Anyone late late night unist or am I too late? PC West coast
yea sure if you're still around
>running this far behind on NEET time
Dude if you're working third shift hours, just go to sleep instead of playing this and hoping others will come.
second shifts I meant, fug
i'm playing with people tho so you can keep to yourself user it's alright
