my prediction - late 2015 release, new disc. Ark$y$plz. T.T
I wonder what would Lambda’s gameplay be like in BBCP.
Demonstration video showcasing Celica and Lambda in BBCP.
Ohhhh, I thought Celica was going to be like the other puppet masters. It seems like she’s more like Shadow Labrys/Eddie.
I don’t think there’s any real similarity to Shadow Labrys either - if she’s like anyone in design, it’s Rachel, where the character you’re “playing” isn’t the one doing a lot of the work.
The latest trailer for the BBCP update shows Celica and Lambda.
Can anyone tell me how is Lambda different from Nu? I still can’t see the differences between them in BBCP.
Basically it’s going to be similar to the differences between Nu’s two ‘modes’ now; Sickle Storm being multiple hits vs one with pushback, etc. Basically, her moves will have different properties in terms of stagger knockback and blah blah.
So right now, it looks like the main difference between them will be combos. Everyone is waiting for more info.
Celica looks hype. Maybe she’ll finally bring me around to puppets. It looks like you don’t have to worry about the movement of two characters, which seems pretty nice.
I think it’s absurd to call Celica a “puppet character” unless you also think of Rachel as a “puppet character.”
The recent balance changes have been released discussing about some characters in the BBCP update.
omg Aegis blade is a reversal… my life is complete!
That is a very nice change, though with Aegis Blade’s weird hitbox, it’ll be a little bit of an awkward one.
I’ll take a meterless reversal with a wierd hitbox over not having one any day! …also with strike fall going into astrea now I forsee all kinds of stupidity following a DP or 236B antiair in gainart…
I am looking forward to SOME version of Tsubaki being good. 
The vast majority of the changes I see are very upsetting, but the thing that angers me the most is guard cancel OD. That, is probably the worst idea for a mechanic I’ve seen since X-Factor.

Guard Cancel OD? I actually haven’t heard of this. Care to explain?
Basically, if you hit ABCD during blockstun, you get Overdrive instead of Burst. Which means that a lot of the time your opponent’s next move goes right through you, and you get to do a LOLOverDriveCHPunish for tons of damage. It’s not making many people happy right now.
I don’t think it sounds good for the game, but if it stays, the new Tsubaki gameplan will be: Get 5 Stocks and 50 heat > GC OD > Kill opponent. It’ll be like CP1.0 Hakumen all over again.
Yeah, that sounds pretty bad, especially since well…you’re on defense and being attacked, which is supposed to be part of the conditions for getting Burst, while you’re supposed to get OD if you’re not getting attacked, or if you’re attacking.
