BLAZBLUE: Q&A For newcomers (PLEASE POST/CHECK HERE BEFORE MAKING A THREAD!)

Is it considered kosher to use easy mode?

heh.

It seems a little too easy, ya’ know? But it’s fun as hell, and it’s a great diversion.

This was probably asked before, but are there any good youtube channels with high level BlazBlue:CS players?

Anyone one know when valk is gonna be released on xbox360. seriously this is annoying…

There hasn’t been any official announcement yet, but I wouldn’t bet on him coming out until after the November 1st dashboard update.

Never! He’s PS3 exclusive!

I wonder how many sales they’re going to miss out on for this massive delay. I was pretty hype on him and intended on him being my new main. But since it’s taken so long, I’m just learning a different character now, and I probably won’t buy him anymore.

I’d buy him.

I toyed around with him on PS3. Valkenhayn is boss.

Hope that helps. I never knew so many DL members had SRK accounts as well.

Can some one tell me what beats what move. In SF4 jab beats throw, throw beats evrything but reversals(close quarters). How does it work on BB?

It would take far too long to explain what move beats every other move. However, I can tell you grab is near useless in this game unless you can get in on someone. Also, jabs can knock you out of a slow overhead. Trips on the other hand are for the most part safe.

Thanks Shin Kaizoku!
By the way, I play Ragna, if I do a string, and the hits chain, can the last move be punished( in SF if I do a combo that ends in say a tatsu or a DP, Im going to get hit if it doesn’t connect) if the opp. blocks, something like b>c>d, whould a blocked d be punishable? or only a blocked I.D would be punishable, or a whiffed move?!

Sorry if it’s a stupid question!

Ragna’s 5D is terrible in block strings, unless you have meter. It’s majorly punishable and only cancels into other punishable moves. I wouldn’t even consider using it for block strings if I were you. If you have meter though, I’d say go a head and use it, cancel into HF, rapid, and go for mixup. If you don’t have mether, though, go for something like 5B>5C>3C>2D. If they’re still cowering in the corner, I’d attempt a dashup 2B, 5C, etc., but it’s not particularly safe against people with invincibility frames. 6D can also be a good choice for midscreen blockstrings if the opponent is not expecting it.

Thanks!

While I can’t really call myself high level(Out of respect for the Japanese and fellow Americans that make me look free) I can at least say I know what I’m doing. DL made me the mod for the Noel forums, so that at least says I know what I’m talking about :stuck_out_tongue:

Thank you as well!

When I’m in trainning what settings do I need to turn on in order to know that they can’t get out of the combo? Quick roll? Emergency roll? I have 3 of the settings on and I can’t seem to get somethings down, I don’t know If I have something on that I should not have, or may be I need more practice?! LOL

And what can you do in BB movement wise, I saw a vid where kaqn SJ at a guy then neutral jumped right in front a then punished with a air c combo, or neutral jump on their wakeup then jump over and land with a b crossup…
What are the shenanigans that you can do?

Not the most knowledgeable player, but I can try my best to answer some questions.

My default settings have Aerial Roll set to Neutral, Emergency Roll enabled, Wake-up set to Neutral and Stagger Recovery enabled. It’s important to switch up the settings for Wake-up every now and then to practice what to do in situations where the opponent doesn’t Neutral tech since you can’t bet on them doing every single time. Granted, this is what most players do (at least online). :stuck_out_tongue:

Wake-up shenanigans are character specific and depend very much so on what character you’re using and what character yours is up against. At least from my personal view. I’m not really sure how to go about that question. My apologies.

I hope that what I’ve said at least helps a small amount.

@ RadRed, Thanks for the response, it helps, I can’t get a account on Dustloop cause it’s says my mail is banned although I make a new friggin email LOL, so I aske everything here.
