Thanks to Final Round for hosting and to everyone who showed up.
Why is Melty Blood a dead game, anyway?

LivingShadow:
I finally got myself a copy of MBAC and after the physics change from Mugen I'm starting to do much better with Arc compared to Warc. I attached some replays so you all can laugh at my attempts to pull off her combos.

Things I know I need to work on:
Bnb, especially ending them with airthrows
Closing in on Nero. His crouching attacks always seem to get me or clash my attacks.
Blocking

Things I won't be attempting for a while:
The wallslam combo, I doubt I could pull this off right now.

You just need some type of structure in your game. It seems you just swing your arms around in hopes of getting a hit. Also, there are times where your controller fucks up or you just stand there even though you can easily block what's coming to you.

This is what you need to learn/practice on imo:
- An easy blockstring. 2a-2b-2c-5a is a good one.
- 2c-3b combos. These are very very easy combos that can get your opponent in the air.
- Throwing. I may cut you slack on this if you're on keyboard but other than that, it shouldn't be too hard.
- Read up. http://www.meltybread.com/forums/index.php?topic=28.0
- Blocking comes with experience. You can't practice blocking when you don't even know what you're blocking. Just don't stand there.

Any more help and/or games, go to #mbac on EFNet on IRC (if you have a client, its easy to get one)
There are people who can help and new people you can play to help your blocking.

Yotsuyoru:
The replays are bugged for me, the computer seems to not be doing what it did when you fought them.  I think you won them, since your input stops at the near end of every match. :mystery:

LivingShadow:
Interesting, I guess that the replays are bugged. And yes, I did win all of them.

In order:

-I'll work on it, currently I think I'm using 2a, 2b, 2c, 5c, 5b.
-I've gotten better at these, I'll work on them more.
-Yes, I'm using a keyboard, I think I'm getting used to the timing for throws but it will still take some practice to get right.
-Already done.
-I have a general idea of what I'm blocking but I think I'm being too agressive to be able to block well. Not that facing the CPU helps.

Well, if the CPU doesn't help (and it shouldn't), go to #mbac. Players frequent there all the time and would be glad to help you. Also, your current blockstring isn't fluid. 5c cannot cancel into any normal moves and ends with a huge gap inbetween moves. 5b to 5c is much better and you can end that blockstring with 214a/b (which is elbow)
