    Rachel Guide V.1.03

    In terms of Christie's 6p string, IDK if this will be helpful or not, but her third P in the string (at least in DOA4) gives +0 on all hits (NH/CH/HCH). Her first two P's in the string are definitely dangerous when they stun you, but the third P left both ppl in neutral, and the last P is always...

    Rachel General Discussion

    I totally had a brain fart. I know that DOA and VF are related in ways. I just wanted to know how more about Jeffry in VF's system, about what he can exploit and what he cannot overcome, to see how it could relate to a Rachel player. VF does its nuances tho, that may work with or against Jeffry...

    The DOA5U "Casual" thread. ^__^

    Damn, I know Tina has a tackle attack and tackle catch grab, but she has many costumes already. Rachel barely has any costumes, much less anything sporty or that looks tough. Besides, she rocks black well anyway, has the punt kick 9K, stomps with a punt kick, and could probably go well with a...

    Anyone else hope for the return of Nicole?

    If they gave Rachel a super soldier costume, that would be really cool. Rachel fills the role of heavy female badass well, and the fighting style speaks for itself IMO. She inherited Spartan's legacy already; she just needs the outfit.

    Gripes with the system

    I've thought about this, and frankly, this is the game with the most guaranteed throws. Every other game has throws as a breakable mixup. If you want to land throws as a form of reward, that cannot happen in other games for the most part. In DOA, if you want to avoid getting thrown, it is A LOT...

    The DOA5U "Casual" thread. ^__^

    Anybody got the football costumes? I'm thinking of Rachel or Tina, but who rocks it better?

    Community seems to be on two extremes

    What you just described separates the skill levels of the players. The ones who cannot adapt/counter are the ones (hopefully) trying to level up. This is why, when you know a lot and practice a lot, you can become a better player who can adapt.

    Characters Difficulty of these characters?

    I'm no expert, but anyway... if you're going to buy that many, Gamestop has the game for 30 dollars, two more than what you would be spending right now on those characters. The biggest factor of execution among these characters is combos, not move execution. Sarah, Pai, and Mila have a little...

    Rachel Remake

    If you take them as frame advantage, they are shitty. If you take the numbers independently, I see safety. Sure, they guard break but if the guard breaks weren't there, we would be talking about her safety instead. Her safety is what allows her to have a sort-of offense because her free cancels...

    Rachel General Discussion

    And what would his playstyle/shortcomings be? VF is very different from DOA; I don't know how they could be similar, aside from being heavyweights and maybe sharing a few moves... I don't think Rachel has a completely unique playstyle, or else she would have unique strats/tools to make a unique...

    Rachel match-up chart discussion

    I know that it's probably an oversight, but 3T isn't only for lows. It can be used for any high crush that keeps the opponent near waist level (like Helena's P+K), and the move does not have to hit low. You emphasize using it for low moves, but Tina has high crushes that don't hit low and 3T can...

    Rachel Tips and Strats...

    I think Rachel's stuns are pretty good. She either gets really long ones or really short ones, which are both very useful to her in different ways (short stuns for frame advantage and long stuns for mixup). I'm working with these stuns with some success. I think her major goal is to launch high...

    Rachel General Discussion

    Is there any character that plays anything similar to Rachel (the defense-to-offense playstyle)? I feel like if I can understand another character that plays anything similar to her (and take away that character's unique tools), then maybe it can influence my Rachel strats in some beneficial...

    Friday's my best day this week... :( Hope it works out for y'all this time.

    System I don't think I understand this game.

    I know what you're getting at, but it isn't like that. Each community is playing the same game as their peers, and a common interest is a common interest. Ppl are much better offline, and everyone has fun playing their game regardless. And also, this ain't DOAC; these forums are more...

    Balance 240 vs 300 life

    I agree with this but I am curious to know: since it kinda seems like you want to talk about other games for a moment...how does the reward of the wall in DOA compare to the wall game of other games?
