This Talim is absolutely destroying.
who is the closest character to giovanna in +R?
are there any female fighting game pros who play male characters
>>739402778I'll be hosting a Chaos Code lobby tomorrow Saturday May 23 @4:00 PM EST (1:00 PM PST). UNI/Melty/AC+R/Xrd/Blaz players should try the game. It's a fun game from our fighting game era that deserves our attention. I will post the Netplay stages as the header once the lobby is up so that you know which to choose. You can find everything you'll need to learn the game here: https://mizuumi.wiki/w/Chaos_Code/NSCHoping a few of you are down to play tomorrow.
PLEASE RAGNA, I'LL DO ANYTHING! I'LL FUCKING SUCK YOUR DICK! YOU WANT ME TO EAT YOUR SHIT? I'LL EAT YOUR FUCKING SHIT IN FRONT OF JIN AND RACHEL!
>>739403037There was a white chick earlier in SF6 playing Alex.
>>739403084wait is it this game? https://store.steampowered.com/app/536560/CHAOS_CODE_NEW_SIGN_OF_CATASTROPHE/ i have it in my library already wtf. probably when i was buying up every fighting game on steam
>>739403131i miss blazblue. i didn't even really like the game that much i just miss its presence in the hobby
>>739402970>Talim in GFhell yeah WIND
Reminder Tekken's secret character of the season pass is getting revealed at Top 8. Who do you want?
>>739403131Damn slut.
>>739403278man how did lily fail this archetype so bad, everyone else in it is great...
>>739403318daigo from rival schools was datamined, or at least someone with the same name

>>739403370It's Daigo Umehara, the whole manHe's going to have Akuma's moveset from T7
>>739403318A new original character.
are you not allowed to fatality in mk tournaments?
>>739403204CF hasn't really gone anywhere
>>739403318its a brand new character so god knows what'll show up>>739403430gore is not e-sports friendly
>>739403131NOEL DOESN'T DO THAT
>even mk has single hit into a 60% comboevery game is like this now
>>739403162Yeah that's it. The new one is only in Arcades. Praying we can somehow beat the EXA exclusivity.
Talim losesLOSER
>>739403363it's funny how talim-coded she is>little brown girl with two braids and tummy>wields two obscure single-handed weapons>uses teh wind>has a move where she trips cutely and falls on her faceunfortunately she has SF6 goblina syndrome (her newer outfit was better though)

omfg a quan chi. thats my main
>>739403675Which one should I watch?
COME ON TWILUMINA NEWS. I'LL TAKE BASICALLY ANYTHING. I DON'T EVEN NEED A NEW CHARACTER JUST SHOW ME THAT THEY FIXED SOME SYSTEM MECHANICS.
>>739402959I only know Dual Kevin from SF6. I didn't expect he'd be streaming those games.
>All the Soul Calibur players are uncs who probably played it when they were kids. This franchise is officially dead. Makes me sad.
>mk stream is deadF
>>739403806Unless Kamone is at CB I don't think you're getting anything.
lmao dude MK1 is so fucking degenerate
>>739403837The commentators said they were in their mid 40s.
>>739402849Thanks friend.Rino plays like a faggot desu, I tuned in just in time to watch him get his shit slapped. Hopefully.
is it weird I thought the type lumina pools were more fun to watch than top 24? it looks really boring the more optimized it gets
>>739403954Damn that's older than I thought. I'm 31 and had SC2 as a kid on PS2.
>>739403785All of themWatch +R
>>739403997you have to get to an even higher level for it to be fun again. evoj top8 was amazing.

Holy shit Rino
>>739403734I'm returning to the game so I'm just as much of a scrub as you. I'll be playing multiple characters casually. All are welcome
>>739404080I will try to focus on the top 8 then thanks
>>739403806neco arc's memes have been updated for 2026also her hurtbox is the entire stage
2 weeks until the reveal...Will Tekken fags rope themselves?
>>739403997There was too much of a gap in player skill in the top 24 this time. Lumina tends to be a really good spectator game though.
>>739402778>>739402959GONNA WATCH THEM ALL
quan chi is so cool bros... might be my favorite fighting game character ever
>>739404067ok
>>739404396MK always had peak character designs.
What's with that Es Laf game? It's out but it's not out and it has Rollback but it's not out. Why isn't it out? Look interesting but I hear you need a degree in computer science to get the netplay working

>>739405040No there's something going on right now on /vampirearcadia. I don't know what they're exhibiting.
>homelander has a juggle into an air grab that drags you right into the cornerdlc characters were a mistake
>>739403023What would you say defines her playstyle
>>739403204I’m just glad it won’t get the strive treatment
>>739405173At least he isn't sucking dick or eating shit.
black keys are so cool
I’ve been thinking for a while Dizzy may be better than Baiken in +R
>>739405392I'm surprised that style of projectile spam special isn't more common. It's a very satisfying design that doesn't feel unfair like true zoning projectile spam.
>me watching homelander basically 0 to death off any random hiti'm mostly watching this out of morbid curiousity and i always knew nrs as the zoner series but this game is aggressive as fuck
>>739405559agreed there's something about knife-ish projectiles in general that's very satisfying compared to fireballs
>>739404502Free is developing it in his spare time while also working a normal job, when it was early in dev a lot of shit was broken and changing constantly so he didn't want to actually sell it to people, so the only way to play it officially is subbing to his PatreonAt this point I think it's good enough for an early access release even if the netplay is still pretty odd, but he's comfy how he is at the moment as far as I can tell and wants to finish more stuff before putting it on steamIt has rollback and it works fine if not amazing, but since it's not using steam it can't just use steam for connections and shit so he made his own janky lobby system and you might have to forward ports and whatnot, I haven't really tried the official netplay
>>739405716That's true but I meant more the mechanical function. In effect it isn't an oppressive fireball and gives a lot of agency to both players. It's something like a ranged rekka in giving the controlling player freedom to manipulate their frame situation while the defending player has a lot of ways to navigate it. I don't see like, machine gun volleys, feather sprays or literal fireballs come out in multiple parts like that often.
>>739405716>dio>beelzebub>the robots from blazbluekino...
>>739405782the first game never even release and now there's a whole new game. what the hell
this mk1 top 8 is legitimately incredible wtf
>Saudi Arabia Melty Blood playerwhat? he parents must have disowned him for not becoming a rocket engineer
>>739405829I don't really know enough about game design to say but I would like to see it more as well. strive elphelt could have been a lot cooler if they went more in that direction with her shots
GENOCIDE CUTTA
>>739405829not quite the same thing but I always liked luna's stance flowchart. very interesting zoner.
>>739406245Rugal is such a cool fucking character, I'm glad he's playable and balanced in XV
That Arcueid vs Ciel fight was a literal dbz fight

That najd combo dayum.

This Arc player is insane

the cutest and strongest
mk1 top 4 now https://www.twitch.tv/teamsp00ky
Reminder that this Red Arc is the guy who caused a fuss over on twitter about MBTL being entirely on Friday.
I hope Twilumina does something about the core character balance situation. TL's in a really awkward situation where the low tier and the top tier are actually really close together in power, but there's no reason to ever play the low tiers since they don't bring anything to the table that the top tiers don't do. It's always the same characters in top 8 since the game stopped getting patches.
>>739407532KWAB
>>739407431use multitwitch retarded jashin-chan poster
>>739407505Cute
Not familiar with Melty Blood lore, what is "Powered Ciel" powered by?
Glad to see neither of these characters' combos have changed at all.
>>739407693Powered Ciel is basically equipping all the high-rarity items she normally doesn't deploy with. That piledriver, the segmented chain blade, and the bow she uses during her super.
>>739407693vindaloo and tikka masala
>>739407743is nanako still implied in remake? havent read it yet
>>739402778 holy shot the picture made me thought it was some sort of render pass profiling
>>739407815Seven is still around but Nanako doesn't make a full appearance.
ArcGODS...
>>739407743Neat.I vaguely remember watching the game ages ago and she had like... knives? Alexander Andersen style. This version is cool.>>739407751kek...what
why is arc allowed to have TWO versions in top3
>>739407815She allegedly exists but has zero presence period. Personally, I'm hoping that the roster limitations on Twi forces them to add Arihiko with Nanako as a character.
>>739407693Indian power, which is why she lost
>>739407693Magic TattoosBut they removed the tattoos in lumina so now she's just Ciel with a weird gun
>>739407972I was literally about to post this character idea, good taste
>>739407949Yeah regular Ciel just meshes around with those big-ass "knives" called Black Keys.And the indian joke is that like half of her characterization is about liking curry back when her route was just Arc's sloppy seconds.
>>739407989>magic tattoosHer skin literally heals from any attempt to scar her. Those "tattoos" are literally painted on.
>>739407743The gun and chainblade are cooler than whatever she uses in MBAACC.
>>739407505>nu-Arcyike
>>739407967For two very good reasons
>>739407967Regular Arc is gorilla as fuck but so few people play her.
>>739408089AACC's Powered Ciel has the chunk of concrete she pulls out and throws at you from the ground which is mechanically so simple but a nightmare to deal with gameplay-wise.She doesn't have that move here.
>>739408107>yike
>>739408061Tattoos aren't scarification, they're ink injected under the skinBut irrelevant, weren't the tattoos her conceptual armor and now they're gone for some reason? I'm admittedly pretty rusty on the lore shit.>>739408089She has a huge pilebunker with a built in rocket launcher in AACC
>>739407967>>739408109>>739408171HOLY...
>>739408160the rock is kind of lame
>Warc in OG MB: A manifestation of Arcueid that TATARI uses to masquerade around in>Warc in Tsuki Re: Arc felt so fucking cucked by Ciel when Shiki chose her that she went fucking nuclear.
>>739408214The tattoos were always painted fakes. Tsukihime was a porn game and Ciel is the anal heroine so you get a ton of back shots of her. Just think of their magic as spells she draws on herself for battle.
sugoi sugoi!
>>739407972Whether they really chickened out with Len or not is still the deciding factor for if the remake is slop or not
>>739408261japenis stonks are high rn
>>739408404A dream succubus has no reason to exist in a pure love story.
>>739408376Ciel "hypnotizes" herself to fight harder so that ritual war-paint shtick makes sense.
>>739408376Sure, doesn't really matter either way, she had them in AACC and doesn't in TL so she doesn't have her conceptual armor on in the new game, right?
>>739408462Then it is mere slop like you eat at a third world prison
>>739408462>pure love story
>>739408509The fake tattoos actually get worked into her magic crests that shine when she actually starts casting more complex shit.It's just not in MBTL's spritework.
>>739408531I only see Shiki's childhood friend here.

What the fuck, Melty Blood is cool...
aokobros...
total arcueid supremacy
melty grand finals was so intense holy hell I was on the edge of my seat
>>739408783this nigga from the future
>grand finals>look inside>Oops, all Arcueid!
Total Arcueid victory
What happened to the Hisui players?
>>739408849i can't believe it's not roa
>>739408762YARARETAAAA
W Deft
>>739408743MBTL is legitimately the best spectator game of the "alive" fighters despite all its flaws. It's probably more fun to watch than play even since a lot of the cool shit just doesn't happen unless both players are really good.The chase for esports has ironically made a ton of games boring to watch even if they're fun to play because game play has become so strict on average that the best players are just doing the same shit as the average player but better. MBTL just still barely has that "holy fuck you can do that?" energy.
>>739408874i don't think america has a high level hisui currently.
Arcsisters...
>Everyone looks having fun on MBTL both the players and the spectatorsSo that schedule drama shit was just a nothingburger then. Why the fuck do they complain about it in the first place.
after this they will announce another arcueid
>>739409184Oh damn region differences cool.
>>739409217we fucking lost...
>>739409272It was one dude who happens to be in the Grand Finals right now but he owned up to it and apologized. Admittedly, something like 1/3rd of Melty Blood players are eternally buttmad about bathroom memes so just think of him as that 1/3rd.
>>739409320and another shiki
>>739409320Phantasmoon + Ciel-sensei or Hime + Elesia?JUST KIDDING YOU GET ECO-ARC AND STAR-CIEL
yo, why did tohsaka cut and dye her hair?
>>739409384Heh atleast he apologized.
>>739409493elesia eroi
>>739409013I am not familiar with the game so I can't add anything meaningful to this but yeah, that makes sense. As someone with no knowledge of the game I am enjoying how, as far as I can see, both players need to be constantly reassessing the situation and responding accordingly. I also like that even though some combos are long, it takes a good amount of interactions to actually beat the opponent, as opposed to one good guess after a long combo.
>>739409493just put all the Arcs in and she can be like Goku in Fighterz
>>739409320Phantasmoon would be kino
Why do the melty commentators keep saying Hbox?
ROCKPAPERSHIELD
Nah we're getting Hyde
where's naruto or bleach fighter?
It's Arcover...
>>739409668Are you talking new games when or where GNT4 and ROS tourneys are? If it's the latter pretty sure it's part of the mystery tournament but I dunno if they got both games though.
>>739409587There's shield, moon drive, armor skills, and heat which are the main defensive mechanics. Heat also heals HP. All of that is enough to encourage interactivity between players instead of being a fast sweep I suppose.
>>739409668bleach dark souls was based
We're so arc!
The spaghetti dropping
AAAAA MIAH J YOU FUCKING COMBO DROPPER
i can't believe arc brought that backagainst arc no less
arcbros... its fucking over...
Damn, TL is actually really sick at top levelStill think it's tragic how little neutral this is but these interactions are cool as hell
mfs so mad rn
im literally not even joking this whole mk1 top 8 is one of the best tournaments i've seen in a while
das gawdlike
W Miah J
ArcKINOOOO!!
>>739409873Yeah basically the thing everyone is asking for is that they nerf offense and bring back neutral in the next game
arc WIN
Were there any good SF6/City of the Wolves matches today? I usually skip watching day 1 pools and only start paying attention on day 2.
fucking liu kang whiff
Ricefield was a huge part of why that Lumina GFs was amazing. What a fucking amazing energy from this guy. Just ready to go into crafting a story for the players.
>>739409873yeah I know people mostly dislike the mechanics but the shield and clash exchanges can be anime as fuck
>Arc won>Arc lostArcbros...
>>739409384the bathroom memes were literally because the game is better than more popular games though
She WON
>>739409983Dude sounds exactly like that one bald guy who commentates SF
>>739410058Holy shit, you're right.
>>739409993yeah they're fun.
>>739408261She cucks Ciel alot in Remake, though.
https://www.twitch.tv/teamsp00ky losers final
Caught a little bit of Jiyuna's restream and he's complaining about the neutral using Hisui as an example, was Hisui even in top 8? What's the deal?
>>739409948I'm curious what direction they're going, I'm not sure just nerfing offense would really do it, though it would probably be an improvement either way, but you need to incentivize actually spending time in neutral and returning to neutral from pressure and stray hits, if they aren't careful it might just end up making it easier to reverse momentum but not really change the core behaviors that people are doing instead of movement and spacing.
>>739410117Quan Chi on the streak.
>>739409993TL went through a lot of patches, the game looked pretty different at launch. Shields were a lot stronger and very RPS and movement was weaker across the board. I think it was always underrated but a lot of the dislike of it comes from that period.They've since nerfed the shit out of shields and made the game super scrambly. Which is better but introduced some new problems. Like neutral was more prominent at launch because movement was worse but it made zoning a lot better since you could bunker down and shield against approaches, now zoners are totally dead and universal movement is so strong that a lot of characters don't see play since everyone has similar tools. If Twilumina is a good update it'll easily be the best fighting game on the market though but that's a real if.
Huh? What the fuck was that? They didn't have a trailer for something?
WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY HINTING AT
When's BBCF?
>>739410121There aren't any strong American Hisuis but she's historically the most dominant character in the game's history. I think she's technically only upper mid tier right now though. I'm not watching Jiyuna but if I have to guess what he's talking about, basically in the current game state almost everyone has nearly infinite pressure and a few characters like Hisui and Akiha have literally infinite pressure. That is, there's no natural safe spot during their block strings where you can escape even if you defend perfectly so players on offense never have to reset into neutral. The defender always has to gamble to escape regardless of resources.
>>739410280Tomorrow and top 8 at Sunday.
>>739410280tomorrow
Fuck I knew it was probably too soon after the Evo Japan announcement but I was really hoping for info
>>739410283>There aren't any strong American Hisuis I don't play Lumina but is there a reason for that? Is it execution?
that was fun
Smoke too stronk
>>739410239The game is set for next year, no fucking way they had anything to show a couple weeks after EVO JP.
smoke is so cool wtf. mk1 has some actual sauce? is nrs good now?
>>739410396No I know not to really expect anything for the new game. But what was that guy hinting at on twitter? And then the commentators hinted at something.
>>739410279Milk is stored in those.
>>739410434Source for the tweet?
>>739410314>>739410317Thanks
>>739410495I don't know! That's the thing! He just said "There's something on Twitter, it ain't that important, go check it out though." over and over again.
>>739410521Wtf lol
>>739409493>Eco-ArcYes please>Star-CielNo...
>Current MK1 match>Both players keeps changing charactersDayum cool.
>>739410671that sektor play was disgusting
grand finals mk1 on now
>>739410704NRS zoner moments
>>739410364No real reason. The player base just isn't that big globally so some characters never pick up any specialists in some regions. It doesn't help that being a less popular game meant information doesn't get passed between regions as easily either. The early American scene leaned really hard towards powerful characters with strong footsies and zoning, and the early Japanese scene leaned towards strong set play and mix up and things only really converged towards the end of its lifespan when everyone learned to hate Akiha.
THE TURK MUST WIN
takeda is so cool, why wasnt he in 11
>>739410884they had to bring back jacqui briggs please understand

why does homelander have an air dashwhy is this an anime fighter
>>739411212Only one damn
>>739410121Doesn't Jiyuna play Hisui? I might be remembering wrong but he could just be using the character he knows best for the example.
what is the counterplay to this apart from punishing a misplay
I understand that it's baked into the franchise and part of the charm but man I can't stand looking at NRS animations. I can never tell how good the game actually is because I'm so distracted by the weird looking attacks.
W Kanimani
>>739411378it is really fucking uncanny, its at its worst in mk11
cock? unsucked.shit? uneaten.
Welp that's day one. See you tomorrow!
