>casual fighting game player not exactly new to Blazblue but also definitely not extremely hardcore or even good at it>playing through arcade mode>picked Makoto and slowly learned some of her moves and combos and eventually fight up to the boss Nine>proceed to get absolutely rekt for god knows how many fights in a row every attack she does is a counter combo that out ranges me in every way and her specials are happening so quick after attacks I can hardly recover to block them in time>eventually find a way to cheese her with shooting star and fireballs baiting her navy pressure hand and even then it was still a close insane struggle to win 2 rounds>later on play arcade again but this time as Taokaka>again slowly learn her moves and combos as I go getting the hang of the claws and pounces>get to final boss>it's Nine again oh dear god no>then proceed to...>have the easiest fight of the entire arcade mode so far all I do is pounce and then relentlessly claw her and if she tries to do something I pounce away then back in with more claws>somehow get a 2-1 win on my first try>staring baffled at the screen at what just happenedWhat the fuck is up with this boss? I also read that if I keep playing later there's an even more insane version of her? Oh man
>>736332431Makoto is extremely shitty. Standing medium or heavy are her best choices for actually hitting from a distance. She's still not as good at it as everyone else.
>>736332851That's a shame I thought she was a beat down rusher. But it seems Taokaka does that much better. Or I just really have no clue what I'm doing which could also be the case. I tried staring with story mode but there's so much talking and then I'm stuck as Ragna so for now I'm just playing through arcade so far with characters that seem interesting read: that I've seen 34 of them before
>>736332431You can fight Nine's insane version or unlimited version if you end every fight and every round with an overdrive finish or astral finish.
>>736335364HolyWell I guess I need to practice those then
