I thought about this last year so I made a public vent server for MB. People stop coming there though, but you are welcome to use it.

Shiki Ryougi / Re: H-Ryougi Thoughts Without a Thread
« on: September 26, 2009, 11:08:51 AM »
After many hours of practicing H-Ryougi, here are my thoughts:
The Sweep Loop
combo starter --> [delay 2A, 2C, delay 3C]x3 > [2A, 2C, 3C,]x3 > 5BB > air combo
I was surprised that this loop isn't too difficult and it can be done from anywhere and from many different setups. It is worth the effort in learning this. So far, I can pull at least 3 reps of the loop on Akiha and Sion 80% of the time (still does like 4k damage). Timing for the delay on all the characters varies greatly. Tried to do the loop on Nanaya, but it looks impossible so far. If you mess up during the loop after a 2C, it still knocks them down so you still have many safe options afterward.
The sweep loop may crossup midscreen, which makes it very difficult to continue the loop. A way to prevent this is to use 623B in the combo, preventing 2C from crossing up.
Setups for the sweep loop I have tried so far:
2A> 2B > 5BB > 5C > 2C > 22A > 2C > 3C > sweep loop
This works best on the corner (if done midscreen, theres a chance of crossing over). Requires knife. I would use this as my BNB.
2A > 5B > 6AAA > delay 2C > 3C > sweep loop
Knifeless. The timing of the sweep loop also changes.
Counterhit in the air > land > 2C > 3C > sweep loop
May crossover during the loop.
5C > 3C > 623B > 2C > 3C> sweep loop
Works best in midscreen. The 623B puts you at a good distance away, which will later prevent a crossup during the sweep loop.
22A/22C (midrange) > 2C > 3C > sweep loop
Works anywhere. A delayed knife throw (hit) after a pressure string can result in some nice damage.
4C > 22A > 2C > 3C > sweep loop
Overhead into the loop. Corner only.
4C > 22A > 2C > 3C > 623B > 2C > 3C > sweep loop
Overhead into the loop. Midscreen.
General strategy
-Catching the knife while air dashing stops the momentum. This sets up some good high/low/throw mixups
-Blockstring > 22A > jump > air dash foward (catch knife) lets you reset your pressure. 22A can be delayed and if it hits --> sweep loop
-The only way to combo off the 4C overhead is 22A.
-Ending a combo with j.236B allows some time to pick up your knife if you used it.
-Midscreen blockstring > 63214B will cause the knife to ricochet against the ground and wall back to you, giving you an easy catch.
-combo starter > 22A > 5C > jump (catch) > j.BC > j.BC > j.236C/airthrow is the easy BNB without losing your knife.
-Losing your knife removes a lot of what H-Ryougi can do in pressure/mixups.
-combo starter > 3C > 623B > BNB or sweep loop for a knifeless combo.

I live in SoVA, nearby Norfolk. It is about 3 1/2 hour drive to MD from here I think, but Im willing to drive that far to get some mbaa in. I just started this game, so I won't be too good but I can learn.

Hey, Im new to this region. I miss Melty. Haven't played any since I moved over to VA. (SoVA... this thread is the closest to my place) Just wondering if anyone plays MBAA in this region and is up for some casuals.

Have a microphone for your computer? Literally "talk" about Melty Blood!
Hostname: Cali7.NationVoice.com
Port: 4178
I needed a vent server for some personal uses, but I decided that I would donate a server to #MBAC. Sometimes its easier to talk than to type, and it helps for making quick comments during netplay, spectating, or maybe just watching vids. You get to hear what other people sounds like and more of their real personalities
It is a public server with excess space, so if anyone wants their own free channel for whatever reason, just ask.
Server is new, so its going to be empty for a bit. Come and idle!

Akiha Tohno / Re: Akiha matchups
« on: April 30, 2008, 05:12:22 PM »
The two characters I have the most trouble playing against are characters that have quicker normals and have the ability to beat my zoning in various way: Red Arc and Shiki Tohno.
Red Arc's air normals beat out most of my attempts in the air and the bloodring zoning makes it difficult for me to approach. Using air flame ribbons vs bloodrings doesn't work too well for me, because the risk/rewards for it is too high for me (getting hit by CH ring = free combo, hitting them with a CH ribbon = not always a free full combo). Holes in my zoning can be easily taken advantaged using Red Arc's crazy air moves. Once I am able to get close, I feel more at ease, but the better than average wakeup DP just makes this matchup more frustrating.
Every of Shiki Tohno's normals just straight out beat Akiha's moves and his DP is high risk but still damaging. Like what tenkai said, his 2C his superior to Akiha's 2C in range and speed and his j.A is a nightmare in the air. I have to be very cautious when using air flame ribbons and during my attack. I do not think defending against Shiki is too hard, but I have the most trouble with this matchup because most of what I do just gets stuffed from most his moves.

Wow, I just realized that this thread exists, even though its a bit old.
South Carolina player here (although native to SoCal
). Located near Charleston at a naval base. Not too good, but I take the game more seriously than all my other games. One of my neighbors is very interested in the game too, so thats 2 in SC.

« on: September 09, 2007, 01:16:17 PM »Anyone else that's getting problems with a Vista machine?
Game boots fine in single player but when we try to connect (one Vista machine and one XP) it won't work properly. More elaborate; if the Vista machine hosts the XP connects fine but the Vista can't chose frame data and just freezes. If the XP hosts the Vista machine's netplay program crashes as he connects.
If the Vista machine tries to run 9 (Debug) it'll show
Error: mbacpc setpath failed
Error: wait for debug event
Exact same problem, and yes, I am running a Vista machine. Only solution I can think of is dual booting to XP (which I am having problems with at the moment)

Having trouble to get caster to work :'(
It says "Error : mbacPCpath set failed" and "Waiting for Debug event"
I tried reinstalling it and patching it to 1.03 again and it failed.
I am not using any shortcuts and the mbcaster files are in program files>EcoleSoftware>MBACWIN
