    Only 980 more wins with Akira to get that final title. Anybody know where the full list of titles can be found?

    I don't know how to do it for PS3, but on Xbox you'll need to download Horizon so that you can change the save's owner ID to match yours.

    It's worth noting that the Xbox save does not have any of the system voices unlocked. I have no clue about the PS3 save though.

    Cool. I think just knowing what the title is has brought peace to my mind. I'll get there the old fashion way. 980 more wins.

    So last night I was playing counter spamming opponents that then mashed buttons. I've never been so salty before.

    It's a shame that I'm finding this out so late in the semester. I go to Drew U in madison and we could have had offline sessions!

    I used to play Magic tournaments at Dewy's. Also, a cool chill bar near there is Vanderbilts. Free pool tables while you drink and eat.

    Yo, East Coast Throwdown 5 is in my back yard. I'm making my first tournament appearance. Akira will be represented. Look out.

    Good luck on representing him. I didn't do too bad with showing people a little of what he can do.

    That's right, you went to NCR. How'd you do?

    Got 2nd place. Me vs. SweetRevenge. I got 3-0'd unfortunately. But still, I think I did incredibly well for my first offline tourney. Top 4 was streamed on iPlaywinner's twitch.

    I need to stop watching VF Akira. In VF he can jump over a downed opponent with 8K. Got super excited, then found out it doesn't work in DOA

    I like watching my old replays to compare them to my current replays. I can see my decision making improve week by week.

    So I had an idea for more GBoD setups and I wanted your opinion on it. Ok so, picture 66P+K on normal hit, combo throw, instead of the punch or kick mixup, GBoD. They'll be afraid to see what'll happen next they'll block. He also has another grab that can do that if you can't hit them. Just a random idea.

    Yep, I've tried that, but for some reason everyone loves to press buttons during it. That set up is also in the guard break thread.

    I got a new one for the GBoD. 6P4P, H, GBoD. You're at +13 after the last P. 236P+K takes 17 frames, 19 when you add 2. A 6 frame window isn't enough for someone to make an intelligent duck.

    My execution was sloppy last night. It was like trying to catch greased up deaf guy.

    One more thing. I found new technology. You need to see this.

    I should be on for a little bit this afternoon.

    So um, I want to try combining my wall splat combo with your CB combo on the map flow. When you hit an opponent into the raft wall, it starts moving the raft and the board shifts down. So check this out 16T, H, P, 66P, 2H+K, P, P (Wall splat into raft wall) 214P, P, !KNEE (Raft angles down here adding additional height about as tall as Akira) !KNEE, P, H, 214P, P, 466P+K.

    I am at work, but give that a try.

    That's pretty interesting just to read and think about in my head. Oh. I'm not sure if you know this, but off CB on lightweights, you can chain four KNEE's together along with 2P WC 46P. So CB, KNEE, KNEE, KNEE, KNEE, 2P, WC 46P. Pretty decent damage. More fancy. But incredibly risky.
    Incognito
    The CPU showed me something interesting today; It tends to rely on Akira's 46P to keep the opponent afloat. Naturally, you can get better combos out of using some others moves but it's an interesting idea for random new combos, eh? Test out some stuff and see what you find. I'll test some stuff with him too.

    I've actually tried using that; however, it pushes the opponent far away from you without advancing you forward. It isn't practical for maximizing your damage.

    I just found out the funniest little combo with Akira. Impractical, stupid, only meant for trolling combo. But it's funny. Get online and I'll show you.
    Sly Bass
    I'm super happy with the xbox patch. If they can jump on the FB upload problem, I'd be done with my complaints.

    Running across another fellow Akira player is like finding a unicorn.

    Akira, in my opinion, is the most fun character to play. When I first started using him I had like a 9% win ratio. I've raised it over 47% now.

    Wow, my compliments, he is really hard to use. You are so skilled with him also on VF5 (where the character is more complex to play)?

    I started playing him on VF5, but never put enough effort into getting good with him. I figured I'd give it another go in DOA5. I actually popped in my VF5 copy recently to see if he was any harder to execute with and it turns out it isn't. I'd just have to adjust to the different hit box/juggles used in VF5. If and when a VF6 comes out, I'll definitely be using him.
