  • Today I'm beginning my new ranked quest: getting to Pink Square rank in BlazBlue: Central Fiction! Now that the game has rollback, it feels really amazing to play online, so let's run some sets with Kagura and see how it goes! Spoilers: Rachel is very, very scary. And Mai too.

    in Blazblue each atack gonna have an attribute (body, head, foot, projectile, etc...) jump in have head attribute Rachel 6a the attack she uses as anti-air has head invulnerability so most of the times will beat jump ins clean the system is intresting and worthwille learning more about it cuz create dedicated anti-airs, high profiles moves, anti-fireballs, without weird interactions or side effects such as 6p in guilty gear

      Even though I like the way Guilty Gear does it more, learning about the attribute system is key to playing Blazblue. No matter how ignorant your jump in button is, if they hit a head invuln move at the right time, you will never hit them, even if their hitbox sucks ass or something. As a consequence, many more jump buttons are huge and take up giant amount of screen space, because the attribute system allows them to be without being impossible to anti air

      @@NeoBoneGirl Wait so you can time a move that has a head invulnerability attribute to it and their move wont clash with you and whiff, but you will punish them? Also there is Head Invulnerability moves?!? I did not know this. Does every character get moves with the invulnerability property or is it specific characters?

      @@MicrochipSlayer Head invuln attacks simply can’t be hit by moves with head property. Even if they hit you clearly and you miss them, at worst, it’ll whiff. Every character has head invuln moves cuz they’re the anti airs. Think 2H in DBFZ but on different buttons sometimes

      @@NeoBoneGirl I see. That's actually pretty dope. I was trying to figure out if there was a universal anti air in Blaz blue but I guess its more like Street Fighter where every character has different moves that are anti air and some are better than others.

    Loving the BB content. Quick tip from a fellow Kagura player, his 6D~C is projectile armored and you can get a 6C, 6D~A afterwards if it counterhits. It helps a lot to close the gap against zoning characters when airdash j.C isn't working.

    Hey Jmcrofts, I am a big fan and always watch your videos. One thing that strikes me about you is just how rarely you get salty and emotional over losing/getting dunked on. I would LOVE to have your disposition and casually enjoy playing people online, but I am prone to shakes/emotional investing myself in the match. Do you have any advice for someone to stop taking it so serious? I genuinely want to be detached from the match in a way where I can be logical and let my muscle memory and execution carry me. But online(specifically against random strangers) I am overcome with excitement when winning and anger when losing, both of which can have the effect of drops, misinputs and getting offline after the game. I want to play how you do, and just have fun.

    • @jmcrofts
      @jmcrofts  2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I think it's 50% experience and 50% attitude, after you've played for a long time each individual win or loss feels like it matters less. Then you just have to remember that the important thing is learning and having fun, rather than focusing on the outcome of the match

    Sure he can be Yellow buy Rachel is very difficult to play and learn. You can mash and do whatever with any character for so long and do fine but character like Rachel, arakune, Izanami, and carl require actually time to learn and play even in intermediate level. They are hella hard that even with scrubs it's hard to mash with them and win most fights. I do want to comeback in this game but it's been so long so I'm not sure I want to relearn my characters.

    One thing that you need to try aand more, is use his Command grab. Kagura's 5DB is a Command grab that can't be teched that is a super nice Meaty and can lead to an easy 50 meter 4.5k combo. It's not something you can really use in Neutral but in the corner on wakeup it's really strong. As for the Combo Ender, you had 100 Heat so you could RC, j.D(2)8D

    not a single 6DC on the rachel. the move goes through projectiles, be it doesnt get projectile inv till i think F15?(its 8 for stance and 7 naterualy). the bat in all 3 of its states(inital throw, lightning from both the tower and the thing that follows you, and that inital hit from the bat flying toward you can be charged through, also includs the frog. the move still has a hallarious extended hurtbox passed the tip of his sword and even seen a friend kargura 6A it from full screen(it was a failed [4]6A which if it worked would of won the encounter)
    but ya theres a infestation of mai since her char is much easyer to learn, like her supers are 236D and 214D, not even a double or anything extra unlike the rest of the cast.

    Getting to pink with Kagura might be tough. He's not bad, but has extreme match-up spread. Most notably he struggles a lot with Nine, who is a very popular character online due to her being the easiest to pick up among top tiers.
    However, BlazBlue is very knowledge dependant and a lot of characters can roll you over until you learn how they work. Once you do, it becomes significantly easier.
    Also, learn how to use overdrive on defence and to seal rounds. It's extremely powerful, resource management in general is extremely important in BB.
    It might be tough, but I hope you manage to get that pink. Good luck.
