Omigod… I couldn’t agree more!!! Don’t get me wrong, I love IV, but this game doesn’t adhere to the same “this is the combo you use, and that’s that-” mentality. I’m having a blast using Tekkaman Blade right now, and it’s the kind of fun I’ve never had playing a Street Fighter game.
I’ll definitely go back and look at your tutorial. Thanks! :tup:
@aegis neglector:
CONGRATULATIONS!!! Your the 100th post. If you ever need some online practice matches, send me a message and if I’m on I’ll be glad to play with you. I just bought a wii lan adapter so there should be no lag on my end.
Cool, man. Although technically I think I was the 101st post… Anyway, I could definitely use the good practice – I have a tremendous amount to learn still. Is Xaolin your Wii nickname?
Yeah, Xaolin is my Wii nick but I’m pretty sure we have to add each other through the friend code so message me your code.
@Anyone who wants to play me with no lag lol: My FC is: 2751-2482-2553
I’ll try my best to play with you if I’m on
@x4ryuusei: check your notifications, I sent you a message but I don’t think you’ve seen it yet
I played tekkaman b today at a local ranbat and everyone says he’s s tier blah blah blah. funny stuff. I love his mix up game and his air game. He also seems to have pretty good corner pressure. Only think he lacks is a good normal to throw out… it seems most jabs beat his. Either way, he’s definitely a solid character. I’m playing t blade/ karas right now and karas seems to be a pretty good way for him to hit confirm into combos and his blade spin assist mixed with the katzbalger blockstring was netting me crazy damage today. The assist seems to make it hard to distinguish which blade is which and really gets inside people’s head. iono. I’m just totally loving this game.
Gave you credit. Thanks!
@greglife: If you can make Karas work than good for you because he took the biggest nerf bat that NERF could make! lol I personally don’t believe in tiers when I can play Roll and know people out of the park with a broomstick
In the 19th combo, the last 2C needs to be j.2C.
Just pointing that out. ;3
Duly noted and I also believe the second to last 2C needed to be a j.2C so I changed that as well. Thank you for pointing out the error
Herro everyone, new to SRK, and fighters in general, but working hard to make the TvC scene happen here where I live with a friend of mine, main Blade/Soki, blah blah blah. Anyway, heres a nifty combo I came up with…its pretty confusing at first, but with chip damamge baroque does 21 billion, and ends off a wallbounce (well it doesnt end, but you can than follow it in the 50 ways Blade can follow his wall bounce)
5A 5B 2B 5C 3C->5A 5A 5B 5B, jc., 2C
this of course is one of our best and basic combos, of course, now lets finish expanding on it
5A 5B 2B 5C 3C->5A 5A 5B 5B, jc., 2C->C Shamshir, BBQ, C Katzbalger.
After the Katzbalger you ge tthe usual wall bounce, and can than follow in any number of the usual ways (5B Launcher 5B A Baselard Super or Voltekka Super, w/e) Up until the branch point, it does 21 bil with chip baroque (forgot if I said that already, to lazy to scroll up) About 30 or so hits, and looks darn smexy. The biggest thing is you can only hit 8 times with Shamshi before your pushed back, Im not sure if it works on 8, so I just BBQ at 7. Since Soki is my partner as well, if I have 5 bars, I than have access to a 46 bil super combo if I choose (Flame Tornado is awesome for all 3 of Tekka’s supers). This Id think works best in the corner, not sure how well it works outside a corner (doesnt have to start in the corner, just the Shamshir part starting than).
Also Ive been experimenting with Double wall bounce, Im sure others have seen that after the second C Katz it resets them near instantly at the end of the move.If you can possibly BBQ and hit them when they restation standing without it resetting (havent done it…yet), the potential for an absolutely ridiculous combo arises.
And thats my little contribution, its pretty practical once you get the timing down
C’mon greg, you know he’s that S-Tier :P. Nah, but seriously Greg’s got a good T.Blade, and I think he’s onto something with the Karas assist. It does a great job of masking which mixup he’s gonna do to me. Now if I could only figure out how to punish with Roll/Casshan when I guess right…back to the lab!
@Zero ?: Gave you the credit, thanks for contributing. I’m going to have to give that double Katz a try later on, I’m pretty sure you can but you probably have to be close to the wall so that you slide beneath the opponent and I’m also pretty sure that you do need baroque because without it Katz won’t come out fast enough.
Just charge while doing Katz, BBQ at the end while holding [2], and start Katz once more is what I reckon
@U-Volt: who’re we trying to fool? We all know that Tekkaman Blade is SSJ5 tier lol
Only SSJ5, please, SSJ7 easy
It has to be a near full screen Katz to connect a second Katz easy. The problem I encountered though is after hitting the second one, they sorta get launched off at a very low angle, and touch the ground quickly, and about 1 or so seconds later (less really) they’re back in neutral stance. You can Crash Intrude after the second Katz, but sadly it looks like they get flung to far to follow with anything else. Maybe cancelling the 2nd Katz early might allow you to combo (like BBQ half way through it and then combo) but I have no idea if theyd just fling to far off again. I imagine a 4C MAY be able to reach them after the full move and BBQing the last hit, but thats no real good for comboing. However, using the A or B Katz after a fullscreen C Katz might lead to something, but there’s yet to be any real combo coming from either of those 2 variations yet.
Also, another little variation of another combo (I only pulled it off once albeit, to tired to do it well, so I didnt get the raw damage off it, but it is entirely possible)
5A 5B 2B 5C 3C, SJ, wait about half a second, 5A 5A 5B 236A 5B, jc., 5B, 236A, BBQ, 2C, C Katz, Voltekka (thats what I did to finish it, but again, any normal wallbounce follow up is likely possible).
I noticed in the OP you listed this combo (minus the BBQ on part, just the part till the last 236A, which you go into super on the OP) as a corner combo, but if you time the 5A’s right, its possible to do it anywhere on the screen. Instead of ending in the super though, you BBQ to 2C, and since your high enough you can just pull off the C Katz (its pretty tricky finger movement wise though, maybe more awake Ill have better luck doing it more effectively). If you want to test its raw damage with chip damage Baroque and such, feel free, but it has that wonderful added bonus again as the last combo I listed into opening up 50 different finishers you can do after the wall bounce, and lets you continue an otherwise done combo.
Speaking of the base of that combo btw, when I try to do the Lvl 3 after the A Baselard, I almost always miss (ive gotten more consistent though). Is there any solid motion that gives away when to Lvl 3, I can hit Crash Intrude off it no problem, but the Omni is tough
Just retrested the combo, another one that off chip damage Baroque does 22bil, with again, the numerous follow ups
Also, after the wall bounce, you can 5B 3C jump 5B 236A 236AB for about 31 bil with one bar and chip baroque…Ive yet to hit the Lvl 3 doing this though…man is the timing tough (albeit, I dont think they can get high enough to hit the Lvl 3 in this scenario, but you can always just do it after the wallbounce is over)
Meh, heres another starter you can try, if you happen to main Soki along with Blade (I must say this is an amazing team btw, Flame Tornado goes perfectly into all 3 of Blade’s supers, and Blade’s Voltekka helps Soki out a bit to, he can charge off a Lvl 2 verion of his Oni Tactics, and get off Flare Tornado)
5A 5B 2B 5C (Press P here) 2C, BBQ, C Katz->w/e follow up. Its nothing special…but meh, it uses him for something…thats one bad thing they have…very meh assists.
Also if you have chip damamge you dont mind wasting and your poking low, try this out
2A 2A 2B B Katz, BBQ, 5B 5C C Sham Crash Intrude. Preety meh damage, but hey, it uses a different verson of Katz…seriously though, I cant see any real use for them…there good moves, but so overshadowed by every other awesome move Blade has
all of blade’s specials and supers are good but id say falchion is best special and crash intrude is best super(and blastor voltekka is coolest super in the game). though when it comes to blade’s moveset everybody can have a different opinion as all his moves are helpful.
As of right now I understand him being great, but I just don’t know how long that will last. He’s definitely top hands down, but I just don’t see him staying up there for too long. Kevin has already found some anti cross up gimmicks with polimar and he’s doing a real job keeping me out with tekkman, so we’ll have to see. Thanks for the shout out! WE got that tvc tourney though didn’t we??
As for the rest of the t blade community, do you guys see him being overly dominant in this game?
No. Cause T.Blade has and is being used too much. So people are gonna sit up here and try to find ways to beat him. I give him bottom of A, maybe S, depends. If he has a surrogate infinite then yes. But I will say this. He has the best super. Crash Interlude is lightning fast. I got hit with a hadoken, and recovered out the animation and got Ryu with it.
Blade is top tier for certain if we’re gonna talk theoretical tier lists. People can come up with different methods and strategies all day long to beat him, but in the end all they managed to do was spend several days of their lives trying to beat ONE person which says a lot about Blade’s standings right now.
Besides that, no one has more tools and combos into super than Blade because he’s freakin Blade the Builder! lol plus that semi-infinite that was posted by Isu makes him a force to be reckoned with.
Yeah. He builds meter quick, but I don’t feel that Blade is the best in this game. Top Tier, sure. But I just feel that someone is gonna find out something about blade, and he’s gonna get smashed. If only you could make falchion unblockable.
I sure hope they can find out something about him, I did make a thread for the sole purpose of teaching people how to use him, all people need to do is look up this thread and they’ve got access to all of Blade’s strengths and weaknesses.
We can’t count on Falchion as Blade’s only tool. I personally only use it to get in close on the ground or for the occasional mix-up. I rely on all of Blade’s combos to get the job done. People who spam Falchions get beaten by me tons of times when I play Blade or other characters just for fun.
What I really want to see is someone who can properly play Blade in a tournament instead of using Falchion and Crash Intrude every chance they get!
Hold on now, Crash Interlude is a good ass super. Full screen punishes, punishing jabs at close/mid range, and alot of combo ability. That is a good ass super.
