>>79636it seems the slayer guy is mostly incapable of breaking swordude's guard and instead waits for him to make a mistake while flailing at him, but there's still several moments where swordie pokes through and starts his own combo, is that how it's supposed to work? is it a playstyle thing?
No.79641
>>79638kinda. The thing is that if anime fighting games you have four options when defending:
- Block Low
- Block Standing
- Press a quick button to interrupt between attacks
- Prevent throws
And the slayer guy has ways to obscure which type of option you should do. So the swordude mostly picked right, but then when he picked wrong he launches a large combo using slayer guy's potential to do lots of damage
No.79642
slayer-guy also has the DLC buff right now where newly released characters are made good to get people into the game off of someone who does the fundamentals easier, meanwhile long running characters have to actually play the game

>>80291Ah yes. This is the part where I'm the bad guy because I'm angry they ruined a series I cared about for over 25 years. Carry on then I guess. You'll never get me to admit this is a fighting game. At best it's a party game. Which is fine. But if the mechanics were any good they wouldn't have had to take an existing franchise and ruin it to get it to sell. Nor would they have had to resort to an obvious social media "lets piss everyone off" campaign.
If you wanted Guilty Gear but easier Blazblue was created for exactly that reason. To hell with ArcSys. They stole everything Mori ever created and now they coast along on meager profits from people that never cared about the company in the first place. Like everything else I loved it screwed over the core fan base to appeal to people outside of it. Now it'll die a slow death and I'm sure both IPs will be whored out in as many ways as possible before the Chinese enviably buy the rights and all these beloved characters meet the same fate as the SNK ones.
You should feel bad that you gave them money. That's all I'm saying

I dropped Strive because the game got less and less like the game I wanted to play each update.
>>80362>Personally anything newer than the PSX days aren't that fun for me with the reversal anti-grab XXX super jump extreme breaker MK2 stuff.GGML on PS1 is more broken and absurd than any other fighting game I can think of. It is exactly the thing you are describing.
>>80358blazblue is a fucked up game and I do not know where it got this reputation
it is amazing just how much saner and easier the XX and Xrd games are
honestly though, if BB got the Strive treatment mechanically, BB fans would be PISSED

>>80492Dunno what you want in a fighting game. Pulling this off was a pain and it's a pretty standard route for Leo off of bt.H
So the combo complexity is there and the gameplay is fast and unforgiving.

basically bed is a corrupted zoner i guess
pixy zoner lockdown character
some combo routes off of jump stuff, but couldjust hang back and shoot projectile
2K>2D>236[K/S/H] seems to be a bit of a bnb..
j.s > 2k > 2d > 236S
j.s. > c.S > 2S > 2H > 236H
j.k. 2k 2D 236S
j.k c.s 2h 236H
j.p > n > 236j.S
Throw > 236S > c.s > Options in corner
more importantly how it spends time in neutral... hops around with projectile and tries to snipe a j.s. or times projectile-error to make approach with 2k
2k > 2d > tornado then sets up for shorthop j.s. as oki
On defence FD and tries to float out of corner
632146H is only invuln (projectile) super and can reverse wallbreak in corner when opponent overhead
defence option is also j.D > j.k > j.S > 5K > 236H
2K is long range abare at 6F, 2P close range at 5F
In lockdown gameplay:
Optional super installs after knockdowns
88RC after 236S allows for highlow mix
Biggest lockdown move seems to be 2H...
many improvised situations too....
For move preferences, 2S is a counterhit tool used instead of 5S. But 2D tends to do better for conversion.
236H is very plus.
Moves 5H, 2S, j.S and 236H are disjointed where 236H is +3 to +19
