Akiha's Tea Room / Youmacon 2011

« on: October 14, 2011, 08:42:52 AM »

So I live out here in lonely old redford township, a little area northeast of detroit by not very much, considering I could walk a mile and be in detroit. Anyways, point is, no one plays melty out here. Sucks, really. But maybe, just maybe, out of towners will come to...

  Youmacon!

Its the anime convention held in downtown detroit, the first weekend of november.

So yeah, just made this thread to see if anyone is coming. Maybe i'll get to play more than my buddy mark's oppresive tohno shiki....

Arcueid Brunestud / How do I deal with this?

« on: October 13, 2011, 09:16:41 AM »

So, I'm a pretty below average arc player... My best bnb is 2a 2b 5b 2c 4b jbc jbc airthrow, I cant do the wallslam yet. having trouble connecting the first string of of the wallslam. Haven't tried the relaunch yet.

Anyways, I pretty much only play local atm, and my friend is really hard to beat, which is infuriating, because he doesnt even really know any combos. He plays as Tohno Shiki, and I just have a horrible time trying to poke through his pressure. Its unreal.

Some good examples of things that he does (because I can't post a video) are 2aaa 2b (236a?.... the dash forward slash move, safe on block)
hell go for that a few times out of a j.c, and I can usually always block it. My only real option is to sj.2c for the amazing clash frames.

The problem is when he starts to get more air heavy in response.... is there an alternative ground solution to his blockstring? I dont think sj.2c is the only way to get out, that just seems unrealistic.

also, occasionally he'll just rush in and "2aaa - dash- throw". Its fast as hell and kinda still looks like the blockstring, so... I dont really know what to do.
