IKs are fine where they're at right now. If you give them more utility, then there's less of a reason to actually play the game rather than setting up IKs. It's okay that they're just flashy and really hype finishers that come out incredibly rarely.

Will every player just play Johnny?

From the patches it looks like they made a bunch of his shit easier to pull off, so maybe?
Ian Sullivan
yes

Faust is cute!!
Easton Peterson
Some (most? All?) characters have a Gold IK combo you can pull off when it's match point for you and you're at +50% tension with enemy life at >10.
Cooper Watson
Yeah, I don't think GG will last. Not because of the gameplay, but because of the community. >before the game even came out anime players that aren't even relevant anymore come out of the woodwork to claim the game as their own game and appoint themselves as figureheads of the community >one of them is a literal fucking tranny >they try to push this cringey "help new players" ideology but are hypocrites about it since they ostracize anyone that doesn't want to use their autistic input system and only want to make fun of persona players anyway >instantly criticize persona players for picking up the game and trying to monetize their content like they have a monopoly on arc system works games >don't actually bother putting out decent content for the game, just make poorly edited Q&A session videos where you only answer questions that people playing for the first 30 minutes can figure out on their own, but still go on to give yourself a pat on the back for putting out crappy content as if you're helping >call people capcom shills for saying literally anything negative about the game I'm not even going to group every anime player and say they're all cancerous, because they're definitely not. It's clear to see that these are just people that got bullied out of BB and are just trying to establish some week 1 relevance in and then cash out like LI Joe did with SFV.

GG is just outdated and boring compared to BB. Japan knows this and that's why they play BB more in the arcades.All knockdowns are hard knockdowns, no groundtech, no rolling in different directions for any kind of variety, same repetitive ground game with the 50/50 guessing game with the same combos (because Xrd has tinier movelists and fewer combos).Even in +R, Blazblue still had more combos and bigger movelists.
Bigger movelists don't necessarily make a game better, but when it comes to airdashers, why play something inferior with less variety? These games are supposed to be fast-paced and flashy, Blazblue characters not only have cooler looking moves, they have more versatile playstyles. More combos and moves mean more options, and more options make the game more fun and interesting. Players who know the meta and actually know how to combo will appreciate BB more, and players who just like flashy anime shit will also appreciate BB more. (Nothing to do with gameplay, but GG's attacks are so lame in comparison to BB's. They got no impact at all. Sol punches fire, Ragna absorbs your soul with a scythe, May has an anchor, Platinum has a staff that shoots traps, missiles, and other shenanigans. Even in IKs,Tager drops you from space, Ragna erases you from existence, Makoto breaks the fucking moon, Kokonoe summons a meteor, Bang's is visually awesome) YRCs take so little meter that the screen is always flashing and the game is always stuttering. Roman Cancels exist, this is redundant.
Blazblue is faster, characters have more interesting/complex movesets, groundgame is more dynamic. Most GG dickriders don't even play the games because anyone who plays GG and BB know all this. And I just want to say that I played GG for years before BB, and that I regularly go to locals. BB is just more appealing, more fun, and offers so much more. And this is coming from someone who plays every Arcsys fighter and would 10-0 you anyday of the week. Peace out.
Oliver Scott
praise be to the shake
Ryan Diaz
So how did the patch go for your characters?
Aiden Brooks
I'm ready to make the Great Kanto Earthquake look like a fucking joke.
Ayden Scott
Mostly buffs.
Ryder Kelly
Half of that is blatantly false. Go shitpost somewhere else.
Camden Rivera
blazblue is for boring combos
Juan Rodriguez
for venom it went alright got SHAKING plus some cool dhm changes sorta sucks having less damage on iad combos but at least we get more risc from our pressure strings and chip on dark angel
Matthew Watson
Do not reply to or acknowledge shitposters.
Chase Miller
After many seconds I'm happy he came first. I wasn't able to see it live since I was working, but I sent him my energy.w
Ayden Russell
I can't wait to burn more meter on a worthless ICPM extender, haha!
At least I have anti-air megafist now!
John Martinez
Where the FUCK are the trans players in GG?
Aiden Gonzalez
You think the S-DHM ball hit is going to be a new trajectory straight upwards and down? I'm thinking that they might give HS-DHM ball hit the H Carcass bounces or something similar.
James Foster
Too shit at the game to get coverage because they're too busy posting about gender politics.
Jason James
BALLS FLY ACCORDING TO INSTINCT NO ONE HAS TOLD THEM HOW OR WHY
Nathaniel Richardson
There's that one that plays Ky. Forgot the name though.
Jayden Diaz
Pretty damn good. >f.S and H Dive aren't useless anymore >Faster startup, recovery, and increased hitbox on a few buttons >increased stun time on S STBT >better control of ground notes >66366 FFVCL fuckery >2K2D combos
They're giving her way more than what she needed but I wont complain.
Angel Mitchell
>"Wash, wash, wash away the knowledge, before becoming just a machine, that breathes." It's time for the birds to leave the nest.
Jaxon White
The one that the commentators kept calling a man at FF but got knocked out before he could complain?
Anthony Campbell
no clue on S-DHM HS getting carcass bounces makes sense though, really curious on what the speed of the ball/how many times its going to bounce is
Benjamin Gomez
WORTHLESS AS THE SUN ABOVE CLOUDS LOOK AT YOU
Sebastian Powell
If so, it sounds hilarious. Can't remember the name, but he's not even close to passing. Just covers his face with a mask while he plays.
Sebastian Russell
May buffs which is nice but the ensenga change feels a bit gimmicky and probably won't help much usually.
Henry Thompson
>S version of flash kick sounds like it might be useful now >H version active frames nerfed >j.D sounds like it might be useful now, although it also sounds like some combos with it probably won't work anymore >S/H guardpoint potentially useful now >fireball yrc window bigger >easier to buffer everything besides dashes in backturn Can't complain. I don't really think the buffer increase was needed although it'll make linking into his projectile super easier from bt.H. It's nice that they're trying to make his useless moves worth something though.
Jose Nguyen
What is proration?
Josiah White
You were right user, I was thinking of Faust vs Sin for that IK. The Faust vs Raven was just that insane juggle.
Dominic Barnes
It'd be really neat if you could set up some ball-to-ball action with a DHM-ball hit.
Ryan Sanders
Anyone else think cinematic supers are getting lame? Like there's no creativity anymore, they're all the same in every games. >Hits you a hundred times >Throws you a bigger projectile than usual >REALLY hard punch/kick >Summons an animal/monster/demon etc., feels like I've seen them all. They serve no gameplay purpose and are only there to look visually impressing, but it loses that appeal when they're all the same from game to game
Grayson Martinez
Damage scaling on attacks. Moves with higher proration will weaken subsequent attacks more than others.
Easton Harris
What do you expect them to do? Have the character stick a finger up somebody's arse?
Christian Rivera
>Organ Deployment: If you press a button corresponding to a move that is on cooldown, you will regenerate a set amount of that moves cooldown meter So the use of a on-cooldown Organ thing makes it become usable quicker?
Nicholas Reyes
Seems pretty good.
Her guard azami can now be held as long as I want? Is that the case? Some guy in the last thread said red azami was just an 8f window now.
Hudson Clark
Yes. Doing the input while the CD is going makes it useable faster.
Ryder Johnson
I wonder if it's spamable or if you can only do it once per cooldown.
Grayson Ward
>more Aegis >more Clock-up I don't like this.
Bentley Hall
I never grow tired of the J or Treasure Hunt, to be QUITE honest.
Jackson Stewart
You better get ready for it. The faster startup on 4D is what I'm really excited for though.
Jaxon Jackson
That's just made up pre-translation bullshit. So far we know jackshit about the Azami changes beyond what's written in the notes. Can you even play versus or record dummies on the loktest or is it just beating up a stationary target?
Kevin Sullivan
Do I need character specific combos for Millia if I don't feel like grinding out 4 different routes
Grayson Cruz
GG has one of the highest quota of trannies I have ever seen. Just look at FF, who was there? Elle, Silva, zenzen?
Justin Nelson
Better look for a different character, then.
Ethan Gonzalez
If it takes about the same amount of meter as metered Chiron(?), aren't you going to end up doing the with metered and current start-up version of the move? I thought that only the meterless version gets a startup buff.
You'll have to adjust your BnB on the fly depending on height, character weight and weird hurtboxes (eg. Johnny) Most of her character specific combos are optimized pinless KD routes, pinloops, Secret Garden setups, and more
Jason Jackson
I mean the notes say >Azami (Guard Cancel): The window to catch attacks can be extended by holding the buttons which sounds like guard azami can be held like normal azami. I'm only asking because it sounds too good to be true.
Cameron Wright
ELPHELT BUFFS
Henry Lopez
There is no universal BnBs
Zachary Flores
It does, it would pretty much mean death to autopiloting strings against her. And judging by her current version, they didn't want old Baiken back when they reintroduced her to Xrd. I expect it'll be something like the current 1-3F window, which you can extend a further 3F or so by holding the buttons - but if you fuck up anyway, you're eating counter hits.
Caleb Anderson
>mfw the new Sol buffs
Parker Cruz
Had to reread. Yeah, I guess that's the case.
Leo Green
can you do slayer too
David Baker
I've never really attempted to draw him, but I'll give it a shot the next time I'm practicing.
Sebastian Perry
I tried these BnBs in training mode and they worked on every single character, enlighten me why I'm wrong
Alexander Peterson
Silva's a guy?
Sebastian Mitchell
Unoptimized trash
John Bell
Yes, but I can go easy on the jokes with Silva because of actual contributions to the community.
Cooper Scott
Seems good enough for me
Liam Baker
Is there new combos to create or has everything been otimized already?
Landon Murphy
People are always finding new tech and more optimized combo routes. It's a slow, incremental process that's been going on since SIGN came out almost 4 years ago.
Brody Rivera
Should I care about the most optimized combos as a casual player? Everyone makes it seem like a necessity to be competent.
Jeremiah Reyes
If you're just starting out, don't worry about it. Get the basic combos down and slowly optimize them if you want. If you want to get past like intermediate level, I would suggest learning all your optimized bnbs and even character specific combos, because at higher levels there are situations where leaving damage on the table can result in them getting another chance to fuck your shit, followed by them fucking your shit.
Jordan Rogers
what do axl mains think of the changes? overall buff or nerf?
Liam Collins
I don't know how it will sum up at the end but I read something about swordless Marteli that sounded cool those new stylish mode combos though, what the fug
Justin Allen
Did the update do him any justice?
Evan Jenkins
I think fuck Axl
Matthew Perry
What did Jam get?
Wyatt Jones
I do too friend, but I still want to hear from one of those excuses for human beings
Leo Young
Stole this from the discord
Elijah Lee
Greed Sever?
Easton Brooks
5H: Can cancel into f.S regardless of distance from the opponent
6P: Knock back on the first hit decreased Knock back decreased
j.S: Vertical knock back decreased
Senri Shinshou: When done as a followup from Hyappo Shinshou, Jam will correct herself to face the opponent
