Glad it's helpful, I remember what it was like trying to learn as a new player. When I first picked up BB all the combo videos just had a written notation, and they were not in English lol
TYSM for the guide. I hope that Akiha monsters find ways to do Bloodwheel oki, that punishes Shield and Reversals with a good reward. because right now this seems the only reason why people think she's bottom 1 ( *cough* Leffen *cough* )
Definitely feels like what will make or break her. I've found placing B Wheel after air throw so it only hits standing to be quite good. If it hits crouching you'll lose to shield options, but have enough time to land and 3C a B shield on standing. Pretty tight timing window to not be too low or high though.
@@JawsFG_ True, itd be pretty cheap to have an unreactable mixup like that be infinitely loopable though lol. I think you can do that empty jump crossup without the low to bait DP, or try to incorporate 5[b] meaty to beat dps like makotofox. The problem is that due to shield hold no pinwheel setup will be truly shield proof and youll just have to show your opponent that you can potentially fuck them up for going for it.
These classic 2d cel sprite fighter are amazing looking. Melty blood Carrie’s the torch to the modern era. I hope this style never dies. Though I’d also like different fighters that don’t look so weeb (no offense) 🙂
Thank you for the guide man it's really helpfull I have a little problem tho I often dropping the combo after the J[C] (either the JB after doesn't come out, either they have time to tech when I start to do the 5B autocombo) you know why?
You are probably adding more hits somewhere. A jump in, 5C, maybe even a 5A will make the autocombo not work. You can air grab immediately after launching them if you open with a jump in. Getting the hard knockdown is important.
Maybe. I'm pretty busy with work/life atm, but would like to continue with her. I've been uploading here like 6-7 years but it's always sporadic. Can do 4 videos a week or not post for 5 months. Glad you find it helpful
Not at home to double check, but iirc depending on how you start the combo they might pop out. I also might just be wrong, I'll have to look at it this evening. Didn't want to go to in depth on extensions here. I'm still learning them myself ;)
@@KevinFriedel so i noticed 2 downsides, firstly, it puts them further away, so a and b rings lock them down for a shorter period of time. Secondly, when following up to 214c, they are closer to the ground, which can cause ur 214 moonskill setups as oki to mistime
Thank you for making this video, straight to the point and basically sums up Akiha as a character.
I love this guide! Thanks for this
This is sick Ty, coming from SF/GG this is a godsend lmao
Thanks for this. Finally someone explaining her combos, exactly what I've been looking for.

@@KevinFriedel yeah I really hate that lol. Thank you for your tips, got some of the combos down that I had been struggling with.
This video is amazing thank you so much
great video, subbed! would be cool if you did short guides like this for more chars
I've been considering it, the maids seem really cool 👀
Thanks Kevin
Good video

SKD has plenty of super wheel to moonwheel anti shield setups. th-cam.com/video/V7-eVQe3Vtw/w-d-xo.html
@@DVLtrigger the problem with that one is it needs a shut ton of resources and afaik it loses to DP

Just about every good fighting game appeals to the weebs lol..
@@KevinFriedel what are we saying? That weebs are misunderstood and are truly the best?

@@KevinFriedel ok thank you I will see what I can change then
Will there be more Akiha content?

Whenever I do this combo the dummy is teching out of my auto combo in the air at the end, super annoying. What am I doing wrong?
Adding too many hits somewhere, probably at the start. Even a single 5A will cause it IIRC.
You can air grab any time after the launcher to avoid that
At 4:30, is there a benefit to doing 5c 214c rather than 5c 22b 214c?

Is the blue color in her attacks a mod?
Not using any mods, maybe just the character colors. Can't remember what the default looks like
*(Buys Melty after work shift.)*
*(Looks up Melty vidya for character I like for research.)*
*(Hears “quarter-circle”)*
… bless. 🙏
You put a quarter circle into the arcade cabinet to play the game :^)
