Akiha Tohno / Re: C-Akiha's metagame

Alright, I'll read the wiki and the other articles, thanks. 
Those combos are amazing- But nothing a n00bster like me would be able to pull anytime soon. I can't even air-combo yet. 

Also, what kind of attacks combo into grabs? I don't use them very much because they lack some range and seem to be kind of slow. There are instances where I may be able to punish a block, but it's short range doesn't allow it at times.

Akiha Tohno / C-Akiha's metagame

« on: February 12, 2013, 05:31:33 AM »

Hey there. 
I just started playing MB competetively a few days to go, and Akiha's always been my main character. I would like to know more about the concept of her character, her metagame, so to speak. What should Akiha be doing?
As far as I've heard and read, apparently C-Akiha revolves herself around being the kind of character that should zone her opponent out, she should always keep herself at distance since she is one of the slower types.

Melty Blood Auditorium / Good evening fellas

« on: February 08, 2013, 04:44:23 PM »

Hey there.
I would like to introduce myself as a new competetive player in this adorable game series. I haven't played Melty Blood in a long time, but just recently (just a few minutes ago), my interest seemed to have sparked when someone mentioned the competetive scene this game has. When I began playing, I only played this game casually and enjoyed it for it's story-based charm (I love TYPE-MOON and have read Tsukihime).
Anyway, that pretty much sums up the reason for me wanting to join this place and learn more and get better. I've been playing Super Smash Bros Brawl competetively, so that might serve as some kind of base for better understanding of the theorical side of the game.

In Melty Blood I main Akiha and White Len (well, in Act Cadenza, anyway)

I have a few questions:

- Do you guys have a tier list for the games?
- What players do you recommend me to watch? In Smash, we tend to learn alot by watching videos of professional players.
- I never really played a traditional fighter competetively before...what are the basics I should have in mind?

So yeah, if you have read this, I thank you for sticking here through this whole text wall. 8P
