Bloody Roar

canceled post, Kohryu has been changed a lot from 3 to Primal Fury

I would need to get three to really see the differences but from what I have seen a lot of the characters have stayed the same from 3 to Primal. Main differences I see is the infinites removed, and Uranus seems nerfed.

my fav char is Yugo, how good is he

He is ok in BR1 and 2. In later iterations he is usually the best or one of the best.

I wish Yugo still had that backwards cartwheel kick. That shit looked awesome and it came in handy to stop strings faster than that electric uppercut thing+plus it knocked them down.

Although I have BR3, I’ve decided to start playing BR4.
Mainly because its the newest and it has Nagi (Yeah, I know).

Any tips, or solid breakdown of how the game is meant to be played?

So I DLed BR2…wanna learn how to use Stun, any tips/combos?

In BR series it’s all about cancelling attack chains into guard attacks.

From that you can cancel that and do w/e. Block to stay defensive. Grab if your opponent was scared and pinned down. Keep on attacking.

By cancelling into a guard attack virtually every attack string in this game is safe.

BR series is broken.

Anyway if you get a hit in you need to be trying to go for juggles for big damage.

Characters that can combo after a throw are beastly BTW.

So look for that and look out for command throws that use this notation. QCF + grab.

Bloody Roar is crazy.
It’s not great, but i’s really fun.

I don’t know if it’s me, but the characters that have 236G throws, that stagger or bounce are amazing.

I’m using Nagi as my main. However, I messed around with Jenny also.
Their 236G’s are amazing and for some reason, throws can be combo’d into.

I’ll report, when I realize more stuff.

Hi, this is my first post here. Good to see other BR players.

My view of this series is that 2 and 3 are the only ones worth playing. I solely play Alice.

EmblemLord, I have some thoughts on your BR3 tier list. Mine would be something like this,

Top: Stun, Jenny, Uranus.

Stun is top because he can grab off any small opening, during and after attack strings even if you cancel, ground games, command throws.
Jenny is super fast, good low attacks, something else I can’t remember.
Uranus, but only in human form.

From here it becomes difficult, because the characters have very different strengths and weaknesses. Like, you’ve put Gado and Yugo as top. But in my experience, Gado is too slow and the dodge system screws him up, but his throw setups are good. And his high damage means if you get hit chances are it’s near over. But I still can’t think of him as top, only in some ways.

Yugo’s rush is good, but lows aren’t too good. It’s easy to knock him out of what he’s doing.

I’d put Shen, Long, Uriko and Alice over Yugo, Xion, Bakuryu and Kohryu (Kohryu is better). I know nothing about Busazima or Shina, only that she has an infinite, but I think it has an escape, just very hard to do.

Personally I think Bloody Roar Primal Fury and Bloody Roar extreme are the best. They play like BR3 but have gotten rid of infinites and made the game work better overall.

Birdman. You overestimate Stun and to some extent Jenny and you underestimate Uranus (who is obviously the best in the game). Uranus can use her beast form in combos and do massive damage and then use her burst back to human attack to even do more. She is broken boss tier and she is definitely above Jenny and Stun.

What Giza said.

Alot of people in BR3 are tops.

They all have safe chains and busted damage from stupid combos.

Yugo’s rush down is god like. Second only to Uranus.

Stun is slow and be knocked out of anything really and his throw set-ups aren’t as good as Gados. Plus I don’t think he has any infinites, full life combos or near full life combos. Yugo has bounce set-ups and throw set-ups.

That’s all BR is really. Easy Set-ups.

As for Stun’s throws. Well, ok. But can he do much off of them? Nothing compared to what Yugo, Shina, Jenny etc can do.

Also who says you have to cancel into a guard attack or that you have to cancel the guard attack? You could let it hit or you can just go with a basic safe string that omits cancelling altogether.

Giza, I agree that Uranus is top, but her beast from while powerful, is too slow. She becomes a victim to dodging. Having high power isn’t the only factor. I will agree that like Gado, once she has you, you will feel the pain.

In regards to PF, I don’t see how this game improved over BR3 at all. I hate the side stepping and dodge system.

EmblemLord, Yugo’s rush is great, but for the fact that low attacks shut him down.

Stun is to be played defensively for the most part. He isn’t about juggles, but rather throws an single strikes. He has high defense, low grab, reversal. He’s a brick wall.

I don’t recall saying anything about a guard attack. What are you referring to at the last part of your post?

QCB + P = Guard Attack as it is called in the manual.

How do low attacks hurt him down more so then anyone else. Not to mention how will you get in those low hits and when? Yugo will be pit bulling you all over the palce. If he is on you then you are hard pressed to get him off. Yeah his dragon finish blow telegraphs but it will hit often enough for him to get his combos in. Also he can just mindgame by ducking low then grabbing.

All characters can grab low. And Stun’s low grab telegraphs just as much as Yugo’s Dragon finish blow. Dragon finish blow = d/b PP. Stun’s low grab I assume you are talking about QCB Grab.

Yeah I know what a guard attack is, I was asking why you brought it up there.

Yugo’s rush is for the most part all high, so lows are going to hurt him more than anyone else. And yes, I was talking about Stun’s QCB.

Yugo can go from QCF PP to P to forward PPP. All mid hits then reset the string. Very safe.

And cancelling strings into guard attacks is the main attack formula of the BR series. It’s the main way for a chracter to stay safe. That’s why I mentioned it.

Yugo could also QCF PP to QCF K PPPP. Pretty sure it’s safe and all mid hits I think.

I agree. I know a good Yugo player and have been slammed by his rush quite a few times. Yugo definitely holds probably the rush in the game. I’m just saying that he does suffer from low attacks.

I also don’t find guard attack to keep you that safe, or at least not to call it the main way to stay safe in the series, whether you cancel it or not. Could you give me an example?

Everyone does.

The main thing with Yugo is his damage potential is insane and with his rushdown he will be getting in alot of juggle set-ups so he can consistently dish out some serious pain.

His mix-up game is solid but he doesnt really need it. He can just pressure and pressure until you feel helpless then sneak in a hit with dragon finish blow. After that please feel free to put down the controller as Yugo decimates no less then 80% of your life bar.

I agree how good he is, but I can’t say I feel helpless fighting him. Very hard pressed, but not helpless.

By the way, do you know if there’s anywhere I could view the frame data? I have debug mode but I hate going into it. It’s confusing and hurts my eyes.

One more thing I forgot to mention before, about what I was asking about the use of guard attack, that was all directed at vs Stun. I find him so hard to deal with.

I used to play Primal Fury alot, but now I’m just going to stick to BR4.
I try to play the latest versions of games, whenever I can.

The training mode in the game is trash.
I need to find a movelist, then sit down, and find out which moves are untechable and stuff.

Stun is AWFUL in that game. His only saving grace was his beast mode grab and his brainless counter move. I liked him on that game but I knew he wasn’t shit.
