Dude Everett, this is hilarious. Never knew Bang’s Astral worked this way:

Apparently it works as soon as it autoguards something. Lots of CS2 Bang ownage by Dora in the vid too.

What? That’s crazy. Man I kind of miss blazblue, we need to crack out on it when you get back. But I’m probably trash now lol.

Oh yeah, it works the same way as Bang’s normal Drive moves where you hit a button and teleport a certain distance if I remember correctly. Don’t think its auto-teleport though…

Haha sure. At least it seems like Bang’s combos are pretty short in this one so they probably wouldn’t take long to get used to.

Oh so that’s what happened, makes sense. Never realized he could teleport from the autoguard like any other drives.

edit - nvm, worked something out. I’ll see you guys on saturday

Ubahman · 2011-07-28T21:25:28.000Z

Ha, I’ve seen Bang’s Astral used that way before. There are vids with people countering full-screen projectiles with it.

Amazing! I heard James Chen announce Vivaldi is still in. I’m going to hang on the stream till maybe to see the match. Good luck Blake.

Sonic_Hedgehog · 2011-07-30T08:59:58.000Z

Way to represent, Blake! :tup:

Watching Alex Valle today has made me kinda want to take Ryu as my main again, he always seems to have that affect on me having watched him for a decade.

Anyone else we know other than Blake at Evo?

Arcas_V · 2011-07-30T09:13:11.000Z

Didn’t Jamie and Drew go? Not sure. But I know Taylor and Wes are there.

Sonic_Hedgehog · 2011-07-30T09:33:43.000Z

I’m not sure, they never call me anymore, Ryan either

Well see, I woke up this morning, loaded up the stream, as the ad was playing the chat log was saying something about the player cosplaying Kitana, I was like awesome, then the ad ended and I said “Shit!”. I did enjoy the guy named Kung Lao dressed as Kung Lao that played as Reptile.

Iceman · 2011-07-30T10:36:20.000Z

They didn’t go. They are coming to my place on Sunday

AniMoney · 2011-07-30T11:54:41.000Z

AE top 32 was so hype. I expect mvc3 to be equally exciting tomorrow.

…still hate AE compared to super though.
