BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma EXTEND announced!

I meant to post that last night, but it looks sweet. Digging the new Mu-12 theme(?). And also, the No.00 thing at the end makes me think…playable Saya?

Nah. I’m pretty sure it’s just the announce for Izayoi - she says “Zero-shiki…shikkou!” at like the 2:05 mark after you see her intro with Mu, and that’s basically “Zero Weave…engage!” if my combination of dustloop surfing, bad japanese learned from anime, google translate, and the ability to recognize the word “zero” when spoken with a japanese accent are correct. :wink:

But anyway, that kinda points to Izayoi being ‘model zero’ since I’ve heard some people rumbling that Izayoi might’ve been some sort of ‘prototype’ or something.

I’d guess that Saya might be Alpha 1. :stuck_out_tongue:

Well yeah, but I just know with me the Saya guessing thing came from the numbered series like Nu, Mu, Lambda, etc all being based off of her, so I figured 00 would be the original. Also, there’s that it says “00 And…” and then goes to the Izayoi thing.

LOL I always kick Bullet’s ass with my Ragna.

You say this like it’s some sort of feat to beat a character that’s been around for a week with a character that’s been around for 3 years… :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

But…but! The unpredictability! How can anybody know what she’ll fully do in just a week?!!

Yes.

Don’t take that post too seriously. I was kidding anyway.

From a lot of what I’ve seen and read, it looks like Nu’s now kind of a stance character in that she switches between Nu and Lambda modes.

People keep saying that, but I don’t really know what it -means-, because I didn’t play CT. The only difference I’ve seen so far is that Sickle Storm in “Nu mode” pushes the opponent to the far side of the screen in an absolutely ridiculous looking slide. I hear there’s also some change to her Act Parsers, but I don’t know what it is.

Well, if I remember right (it’s been a good long while since I played CT), but her Act Parser in that was essentially her dash so if you hit them with a throw or something that knocked them into the air, you could just normal dash and it’d do the Parser.

She can switch between Lambda and Nu style of play. For example in Nu, Sickle storm is the single hitting full screen low. But in Lambda it would be the Multi-hitting one etc.

Also Bullet. Looks. So. Boring.

Moar Azrael.

Bullets looks intresting to me mostly because of her heat up state giving her better everything and the psuedo-grappler archetype is one I’ve always found fun. Also her pose makes me laugh.

Azrael is gonna be sick though.

I don’t think that’s how it works; It gives her increased damage and it gives her some followups to some of her moves that consume the heat-up state, which means that right now no one is using them.

Pseudo grappler archetype is all over the place in terms of entertainment, and her pose is really stupid looking to me.

I’m with Huggy. She looks boring as mud and far and away the worst (in terms of interest/variety/actual value as an addition to the game) of all the new characters.

true but she also has some moves that get buffed from her heat up and increase it another level. her dash also gets ridiculously fast and I think her overhead gets faster. reminds me of akihiko from P4A.

thats why I think she’ll be fun. all the new character seems intresting to me from a gameplay standpoint. amane’s chip still blows my fucking mind everytime I see it tho.

I’m not seeing these players doing a lot of things that Nu should be able to do…so I’m wondering if they nerfed her. Can she jump cancel her 5D’s and do the whiff cancel air overhead into air D’s for some really good full screen pressure like in CT? Something like 5DD, jump cancel backwards j(2DD, qcb+D~C, 2DD)?

I’m personally expecting Nu to be more like Lambda than her CT Nu self, but that remains to be seen. Odds are that just like everyone else, she’s going to do a lot of things differently than she did in the past.

She can JC 5DD, not sure is she still has Sickle Feint.

Let’s not worry about the nerfs for now people.
