BBCP: Rachel (Zaion--X) Vs. Azrael (KittensWithBeer) Ranked.

Az's player doesn't know how to use Drive and Rachel's stylish. A few work on both sides and the matches would get a lot funnier.
Kinda kills any motivation to get anywhere in BB when everyone goes and jumps on over to something else. I remember when BB had tons of lobbies even after being out for a while, good times. And once GG hits that's the final nail in the coffin, loads of people are going to flock on over to it leaving BB completely dead.
BlazBlue just hasn't been popular
Plus the revival of GG and P4AU being released
Western audiences just dont have time for BB
I noticed. Did they all go over to Persona or what happened?
Try and edge yourself back into it :/ It's a little tedious but BB hardly has any players :/
It has been a long time since I touched BB at all, I am nowhere near what I use to be back then and it isn't like DOA where I can just play a little and be right back in it. I struggle with 2D fighters now more than I use too sadly. In regards to hell difficulty, I'm gonna pass, don't need any more rage in me at this point.
I'm aware of the damage that Rachel can deal but in a single combo, it's incredibly situational.
I really suggest going against the AI on Hell setting.
I mean, you've played it before, so it shouldn't be too hard to get back into the swing, despite the differences between CP and previous iterations.
The people at "my level" are alt accounts looking to troll or whatever they are wanting to accomplish. Can't trust anything, I let my guard down thinking, "Oh hey someone my level." Minute later, blown up in seconds by combo after combo can't move, get locked down etc. And if you've fought the Rachel's I have you'd think differently, haven't fought Tsubaki, Carl, or Izayoi yet so I cannot speak on them, but Rachel can and will fuck your health bar in a millisecond in the right players hands I promise you this. Also CP feels a bit more stiff so even using noob friendly characters wouldn't help me out much at all. Anyways, I didn't want to break into CP at a competitive level to begin with hence my use of Stylish so yeah.
Then fight more people at your level, that setting does exist within CP
Half health combos are finicky in BB. It ultimately depends on your opponent. Tsubaki, Rachel, Carl and Izayoi pray that they could get half health combos even with a Distortion option.
Just pick characters you feel comfortable with. I picked Noel back in CSII and I have stuck by her despite the stereotype that she's a 'spammy' character.
Trust me, it is fair because everyone playing at this point know half health combos, have damn good pressure, and pretty much punish any little opening I leave. If anything I am limiting myself by using Stylish as not all the options I'd have in Technical are there, I have little control in general. I sacrifice a lot just for a combo or two really IMO, and they aren't even fully guaranteed as they can drop, which if faced against a knowledgeable player I'd be as good as dead. 9 times out of ten I got fuckin' wrecked hard. Only one person I fought truly seemed to be still learning so I never fought them again. In closing, I fucking suck.
It's fine for anything except Ranked. It's unfair on those who do invest into the game and it deters those who want to learn the mechanics of their character when they get repeatedly beaten by those in Stylish.
If you don't want to learn a new character and their mechanics then, of all characters, don't pick Rachel
Ragna, and, the soon to come, Celica are two characters perfectly suited for those easing into the game and those who want to relearn.
I praise them for it as not all of us feel like learning yet another game atop the countless others you invest hours into as is. Some of us just want to get straight into the matches without the hassle. I'm pretty worn down on fighters anyhow so without this I'd more than likely have been done already.
Wait, just noticed it's on Stylish
Respect lost
Never use Stylish on Ranked, Arc was stupid for letting that be as it is
I tried without it using Jin, that worked about as well as trying to catch a Shark with just your hands. I'm not good at BB like I use to be.
Probably would have done better if you weren't playing on stylish mode =/
Rachel was impressive but that Azrael may need a little work :)
Need more Rachel players around

Got some DOA stuff I will be recording soon and uploading, look out for that. For now here's my 1st match online playing BBCP. Now let me just throw it out there; I am indeed using stylish mode as I do not intend to play this on a competitive level, and I can play without it as Rachel was one of my old mains just don't feel like it.
