The NGBC Thread Version 2.0-Team tournaments in NGBC from here on out!

I’m not Geese, but I can answer this.
The answer to your question is yes. I, for instance, play the mediocre Akari as my point and my main character. Her backup is Hotaru, whose S-tier bullshit makes up for all of Akari’s weaknesses, making it an all-around solid team.

EvilSamurai- Yes certain teams work better than others…without a doubt…like for example Tung +ANYONE that requires meter is great because he gives the person pretty much free meter and Tung slows the game down because you don’t wanna lost half life…which is precisely what I want to do…slow the game down.
Also like Lobelia said its good to have someone that can cover up the shortcomings of the other character…

I’m gonna have to upload Josh vs. JeRon Losers Bracket to a bigger host because its slightly larger than even youtube can hold unless I split it. I’m debating right now but for the time being…

Tung/Kaeda is cute for the reasons geese said

so is tung/hanzo

I just bought Batlle colliseum two days ago and playing it is fun. unfortunately for me competition around here is slim so im fending for myself.

SO far ive caught onto kaede, king lion, haomaru, washizuka as characters id like to put on a team. which ones are good to stick with as a team and which ones should i stray away from?

All the ones you have listed are good to have as a team…

Let it sit on your CPU until it loads…its buffering…

All of those characters are good, but of those four, Haohmaru and Kaede are the best. Try Shishioh (King Lion), though. He’s fun as hell, and I can teach you bits and pieces. Rush with Silent Storm for starters, and his BnB that the Shishioh champ uses most often is :r: :snkc:, :r: :snka:, :qcb: :snkc:.
HUH! HWA! DYNAMA-TUH!

Shishioh’s :r::snkc: is ultimately too slow and lacks priority to be a reliable combo starter. Not to mention, it all too often pushes the opponent too far back on hit for the :r::snka: to connect.
His standing and crouching :snkb:'s are faster and have better priority though the only disadvantage they have against :r::snkc: is that they have a little less range.

Interestingly enough though, the :r::snkc: can negate some projectiles if you time it just right with his fist.

Whoa, seriously? Good shit, good shit. I don’t know much about Shishioh, so I just go by what Stone does.

I’m thinking about starting to use Mr. Big just to be an asshole.

I did, just as a back up to piss people off…it worked.

You know what pisses people off even more?
GREHNAY!

I’ll stick to my lame yuki iad antics. <3

:rofl: You’re back on dat Yuki? Good shit! :tup: I’d rock Ai if I thought she was useful.

Then My decision is final. :lol:

No, not really.

I tried playing with him again the other day and I totally sucked with him so I just gave up cause I didn’t want to re-learn everything.

Ahh. So Iori/someone else, right?
I wanna learn Ai and Nakoruru out of sheer fandom. Ai’s half the reason I play this game. So…fucking…cute!

Sweetness. Why you do that I shall start training more harder to make sure to stay better. I feel I have like no competition anymore…I have :shake: friends at all that play fighting games outside of Naruto and SSBM…:sad:
It makes me more angry than sad too! I hate it much.

So anyone got some tips on playing Kim? My team’s been shishio and neo dio for a while now and they’ve worked ok, but I wanna drop shishio for Kim since I wanna play a rushdown team. What’s good with Kim?

What ISN’T good with Kim?
