CHEAP

Art, pick Eddie in Slash and play me for a fiver this Sat. :3

hey guys. i play on a machine out in the west coast, and i had a few questions since everyone over here plays MB similar to how they play 3s (ha).

how does normal shielding work?
how the fuck does bunker work?
bunker canceling i think i’ll get a little bit better then i figure out what bunker is, so i have the option of actually cancelling out of it.

thanks :smiley:

This is gone over previously in thread and is in the wiki but for the sake of the thread having actual content lemme answer…

MBAC has normal and EX Shielding. EX shielding is what you get when you tap and release shield, this shield recovers quickly and is cancelable into anything. Normal shielding you get when you hold shield. This recovers slowly (you can normal shield a 2a and get hit by the next 2a) and it’s special cancelable only. Normal shield also drains circuit like crazy while you hold it.

Shield Bunker is basically an alpha counter. The exception is you get a clash point at the beginning of the animation and if you can time it such that the opponent hits it, you’ll generally hit a successful counter. If you don’t time it right, the attack will still come out, but slowly and is generally really punishable. I forget exactly if all shield bunkers lost their ability to be special cancelled. I think Miyako’s is still jump cancelable, but it’s been forever since I tested it so I can’t say for sure. You cannot combo after this attack, so don’t try. Just set yourself to be ready to catch any techs.

Bunker canceling is exactly what the name says. You cancel the bunker before it ever comes out. Basically anything that has a ABCD input you can cancel to. The most basic generic input requires just pushing a button after the normal motion. 214D~A/B/C. Shiki’s and Kouma’s 214D~C are very good examples.

ciel is like strider and rolento combined… on crack…

daruism released a bunch of ver.b vids yesterday, some great stuff.

FUCK why did I ever stop playing Satsuki, her block strings are just fucking wrong.

thanks for the link chibi. i was watchng [media=youtube]rzCqcTOUV_E&mode=user&search="[/media] and len drops a black cat every time. it seems like its like hisui’s not-so-random stuff. anyone know how to get a certain cat to come out?

ver. b arcade allows the player to press 4 after 214b to get a black cat everytime

I was actually wondering the same thing about the cats too.

Orka, you checked on console version?

i already tried

you can’t do it on console

Man what the shit is she supposed to do in this match up?

Get a lead and run away?

Damn.

;_;

Almost all of round 3 was spent in the corner. :\

Round 3 made me want to cry, seriously. That’s fucking sad.

WAY TO GO HISUI

I STILL LUV U

Only thing I need for Len is her 2b6c launch. Cat is on the ground and my game usually takes place in the air. Only cat I use is for the 2b in the launch. :stuck_out_tongue:

@Chibi: New avvie. Me likes. :slight_smile:
@HF: I replied to one of your Ciel combo vids on youtube. Good stuff. The vid helped me solve my mid air 214c setup error.

Oh shit, this is turning into a real thread again :confused: . And Akiha Tohno is learning the lingo :wtf: .

@Orka: Just wondering, do japanese MB forums/bbs ever have do-ra-ma.

I guess i can start posting (semi-)useful Aoko info again (for ppl to not use since no one plays her).

Aoko is awesome. Post anyway.

I’m glad to know that someone found it useful. :wgrin: And it looks like it finally reached 1000 views. D:
