Seriously, I need help on this match up. I can honestly believe that at best this is a 4-6 match up in their favor. Any help at all with these two will be a plus for me. What do you do at round 1 fight? When at disadvantage? During string extensions? In general, you won't land many normal...

I'm sure all of you have heard by now, but some may not. Yohei Shimbori recently tweeted that the team is looking to the fanbase to see what they would like to have patched in Dead or Alive 5. The following is the official translation tweets from Ninja Gaijin.

I just noticed this and it's something I know was in the Summer Jam build and I believe was still in v1.01. But Kitchen Sink no longer causes ground slam, as in it won't send someone through destructible floor such as the grates on the Oil Rig or the floor of Home. Anyone else notice anything...

We already know about his :2::h+p: game, but is there anything we can get out of opting for a 'pick-up' via attack in the same situations? I'm trying to see if he has any set-ups that would be viable? Facts about :2::H+P:: 7i ground throw Does 0 damage Leaves Bass at +11 on front-turned (FT)...

So I've been trying to find instances where Bass can get his :h+p: air throw off of a wall slam. It's difficult due to his recovery, and if you watch my match videos you'll see me hitting :3::k: a lot into the wall and just doing the follow-up punch. That's because :3::k: has too much recovery...

Most Bass players know the old tried and true method of CH 1P leading directly into TFBB right when the opponent recovers. But in DOA5 there's now an additional benefit: The TFBB is not the only 12i throw, and since he now has others, they can equally be used in the same situation. The other...

So fun stuff that I could use fellow Bass players' help with if they get the time. So you all know the love that 66K brings right? It puts Bass back-turned after a guard break. Did you know that you have 7K perform his best launcher from BT? Of course you did. Let's say we put the two...

Another week has passed, meaning we're closer to the end of the year. This holiday season is looking mighty big for those in the offline Dead or Alive 5 competitive community. Overall, there looks to be around two majors going down that every Dead or Alive competitor should try to make it out...

I was browsing through our event calendar and noticed an event happening in Virtuapai's backyard. Seeing no replies I was wondering if anyone missed the event announcement. Dead or Alive 5 will be featured as one of the four games in a tournament for the night at Battlefield Arcadia this...

Dead or Alive 5 has been out for over a week now, giving many players some time to pick up on some strategies in the forums and with each other. This hasn't prevented tournaments from being held, and we're already seeing some known players taking control of the game in the early goings. Seasons...

Gamasutra recently put up an article interviewing Yohei Shimbori about understanding a series' fans when developing a game. This is probably a big reason as to why "swimsuits" and "pin-up models" made a return to the series after early interviews stated they wanted a more mature look for the...

In order to sort of reign in on all of the threads, it would be best for us to sort of provide information on issues found in the game. This isn't the place for system mechanic discussion but for things that are outright bugs. This should hopefully help clear some of the clutter, and honestly if...

608 So apparently a Mila infinite has been found. It requires Mila to knock you into a wall down and do :h2::p::p::p::p:... and it continues until the Mila player messes up or time expires. The damage is worthless but mainly this locks a player into the ground until time expires. The only way...

It was bound to happen sooner or later, although I'd prefer later, but use this thread to view and discuss the most recent tier list. As a reminder, a tier list does not dictate the winner of a match. It is only a guide used to compare one character's given options throughout a match with the...

Lately, with the increased activity we've received, the server has been sending 500 Internal Server Error messages to people as they browse. I'm currently looking into the issue and the possible solutions for this. Please bear with us as we try to improve the web site.

The Verge has shared the Famitsu article showing a discussion between Yu Suzuki and Yosuke Hayashi on Dead or Alive 5. Team Ninja's Dead or Alive 5 (which received straight 9/10 scores in this week's issue of Famitsu magazine) features a number of characters from Sega's Virtua Fighter series...

Yohei Shimbori recently tweeted that the development team decided to hold a 33-man tournament amongst the staff. He has uploaded the finals of the tournament which is Hayate vs Hitomi. As far as I know, he did not tell which members of the staff were the finalists but they were two of the...

Yosuke Hayashi was recently interviewed by VG247.com with a few words to say about Fighting Entertainment, balancing the game and its characters, and sharing the game early in development with fans and the media. Its an interesting read out of Hayashi for once. Kudos go out to VG247 for asking...

Team NINJA and Yohei Shimbori have released two matches of newly announced Helena Douglas against Lisa Hamilton. Helena is the CEO of DOATEC with Lisa being one of the chief scientists for the DOATEC's research and development division. Seems strange that Lisa seems to use the same fighting...

For those who are not yet aware, GVN Summer Jam 6 is going down this coming weekend August 25th and 26th! Team NINJA has decided to help sponsor the event by providing the IGN Pro League Round 2 demo build of the game (v0.95). There was a recent announcement to the change in prize structure of...
