I say that MB is a good balance of 2d fighter tactics and smash tactics. Y'got your mind games, ground techs, sidestep dodge,and tech punishes, and you lack a block button, l canceling, and 3 broken characters that everyone uses(Now its just Sion, which, for some reason, no one uses).

I don't play Smash I just think MB is fun to play and has some fun quirks (heat system for healing etc) even though it's not as complex as GG or something.

It's all bout dat air movement!

Capcom players find it uncomfortable. Being in the air is suppose to be a death sentence.
Smash players find it to be natural. In fact, they expect it.
Guilty players welcome it. We're given many of the same air options found in Melty and Smash, but at the same time we also face the same dangers found in Capcom games.

In Melty Blood, the air is all apart of your positioning, pressure, and mixups. Being in the air is a good thing.

Or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about  :V :V :V :V :V :V madden


Edit: Oh, and, Kouma and Nero combined don't compare to the manliest of Magneato.

User was given an infraction for this post.

judging by the fact that high level videos basically consist of people jumping forward then double jumping backward repeatedly while throwing out air normals I would say that you are right

he got an infraction for that post?  is that like karma/rep on other boards?

all this talk about air is reminding me how much LK was flying. i need to learn how to fly! :toot:

i think infraction = magic circuit thingy (i guess) (EDIT: nope that's not it)

i don't really have a good answer as to why smash players play MB. my guess would be the fact that both games are really easy to get into. smash is very simple at the beginner level, moving around, doing attacks, just doing anything in general is well straightforward. as for melty blood, the system is deep but not deep enough like guilty gear. combo system is easier (definitely easier than guilty gear's gatling system, reminds me of MvC). any experienced smash player (competition/casual) should feel quite at home with MB due to some of the system similarities.

i guess i'll just have to agree with 4r5 why capcom players find it uncomfortable. i've played enough capcom fighters to learn that being in the air is the worst thing you could possibly do unless you're planning something. the options melty blood gives you in the air means being in the air can feel pretty safe. in smash, you're in the air half the time trying to figure out where to land and not die (for me at least, nam's ganon loves to keep me up there). that and those jumping neutral A attacks are well pretty good. damn you short hops!

Jokes. SRK, Orka, some sort of thread about loli fighters. I believe the exact quote was "Marvel players are gay for Magneato". And then Orka got an infraction. I thought it was funny.

I could learn Sion, if you want me to learn Sion. Who wants me to learn Sion?

Well PERHAPS I have a theory:

Average SRK person says smash is a shitty game. Average SRK person says MB lacks depth. So someone who likes a shitty game should be only attracted to shitty games. AMIRITE?  :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah: :blah:
Well, I say smash is a shitty game but I play MB hardcore so your theory is teh fail.  :V

Oh, and I want to bloody up your V.Akiha before I head back to school so make plans for the 1st.  >:(

zar are you even aware that your attitude is what drove people off in the first place. i think zar's attitude is worse than all of that. cause neither of you guys mean anything. but zar can poison shit around him. zar's the one that gets personal online and does realtalk that's out of line.

I'm confused at your comment, so I'm going to try to make what I meant clear.

I meant Smash has Marth Shiek and Fox as the top tiers that everyone uses. I mean, I guess people are starting to use peach and falco, but for the most part, everyone is sticking to those three.

And... if you're angry at me saying there are no Sion players, then, sry for the offence. There ARE some Sion players...

And even after saying all this, I'm still confused.

I'll do it tomorrow. My laptop is upstairs, and I am entirely too lazy to walk up to it. Which is also another reason why uploads have stopped for the day... I guess I'll fix my naming error now to make it look like I'm doing something productive.

Edit: Just an FYI, becuase each of those matches in that naming error were pretty unworthy of having their own video, and the replays for every other match for each of those sets are missing anyway, I am just going to replace the name on the video, and reupload it as is. I'll also upload the last set on Rei's computer which was a match with Mr.Mammation & Rathrak Vs Nas and Tiamat. I'm 95% sure I got the right people this time, with the extra 5% being a 100% certainty that I'll find out I got them wrong directly after I upload them, forcing me into a tourrets filled rage.

@AlmightyNam

damn, my bad. I completely glanced over "and you lack". I was thinking about exploding in my last post over a misread comment, now I'm glad that I didn't  :-[. Oh, and If any char comes close to being "broken" in MB its Akiha (imo). She has far too many tools to abuse at high-lvl play.  :o

air throws are a good anti air for anybody as far as I can tell so you could try that more maybe...I know it sounds lame but it's an option...and you could throw them into the corner with it which is always good with shiki

one of my+nas vids is up

Not much to do about learning matchups other then getting out there and fighting the matchups.

And pixels-off-the-ground airthrows are hot. I do them when ever I see the opportunity.

Damn you, Nas. You're not angry/hype/stubborn enough to keep at it w/ Tohno. You need to lose 1,000,000 more times before you call it quits. Until then, get angry, find answers, and try new things. Check out the deathburger casuals for some ideas on how to approach US style of play. It's a US tohno but it's a Zar-Tohno making it slightly less sucky (?). =D
