Fightin' east coast PC players while I wait for the port because I dont want to pay for PS+

Relearning Sin because he now has corner Beak Driver loops. Also trying out Baiken and Answer.

Haehyun is also a lot more enticing now because Four Swords Reverse is easier to do.

I like the girl with hair and a gun and bunny ears.
Bought it for her so I have an excuse to buy her fig. It's a lot more fun than I thought even if I suck at it.

How does Roman cancelling work? I did the tutorial and I know you can use it to reset yourself after a combo to keep the combo going but can it be used to escape a combo?
I've been stuck in very long combos by an enemy before with nothing to do. I'm when I do it to them though I get pushes out sometimes.

>>378275645

You can only cancel your own moves. If you want to break out of a combo you need to use burst. The tutorial should tell you how to burst

Roman Cancels have a lot of applications, but you can't use it to escape a combo. If you're hit, you need to use bursts. When you're blocking forever there are other options.

If you have 50 meter, you can do Dead Angle Attacks which consumes 50 but it will push the opponent across the screen from you. Other options include Blitz Shield for 25 meter if their pressure has gaps, and of course, Faultless Defense which creates a gap between you and an aggressive opponent, but it will continuously use up meter so use it sparingly.

You can use the Yellow version of Roman Cancel to slow time so it messes up with opponents input, or use it to see what the fuck is going on screen for a short time.

Raven seems a lot more interesting to me now since they made his excitement mechanic a way bigger part of his gameplay. Baiken seems pretty fun too, so I'll definitely try her out. I'll probably be stuck in an eternal character crisis as usual.

Is it just me or does Raven seem like the most retarded character from a design standpoint? They're like, "Oh, every other character has some kind of oki, so, let's just give him a literal fireball that he throws over their body"

I'm not that experienced, so I may be wrong.

Your options when being actually hit and in a combo is just Bursting out.

When they are pressuring you and you are blocking, you have several options:
Faultless Defense to push them back away and take no chip damage, however, you will receive more block stun which makes it harder to punish your opponent. (consumes meter over time)
Instant blocking which has the least amount of push back between the three different blocks (FD/regular/Instant) and also reduces the amount of block stun you receive, so you can actually punish things you normally could not if you instant block it. However, you will build your RISC gauge faster than regular blocking.
Dead Angle Attack which consumes 50 tension which is basically an alpha counter, unsafe on block for pretty much everyone, so if they read it they can punish you for it.

True but that Happy Chaos thing is scary as fuck. At least now we know we won't lose Jack-Os moveset next game, the other her will have it, Oh, Leo's sister was hinted at ttoo by the way, we don't hear her voice but Leo's reaction to her makes me wonder just how badass she must be to make him act like that. Still nothing on Bedman's sister or what I-No's shit eating grin is about One thing's for sure, these two have no role in the plot anymore they're just there to be cute.

So what is Raven going to do now that he's No longer partnered with That Man. Wasn't he the only person giving Raven's life meaning or whatever? I guess him and I-No are good guys now right, maybe help the main cast do stuff?

I tried to play this and found the tutorial a pain in the ass

Is it not meant to be played on pad? Holy shit I could do it but things like forward jump air dashes weren't exactly easy

>>378278092

Back to pretending to be a god for him I guess. I-No's time is running out, she's probably gonna wreck shit before she finally dies or at least make sure Asuka and Frederick have their battle because she's always wanted to see them both go all out like the monsters they are

>>378280692
Thanks anon.

>>378277917
I honestly have to agree. Like at least everyone else who sets up oki, the fireball game is a little more cleaver. For raven is really, really straight forward. So much so, I kinda wanted them to remove that fireball in return of a new move all together.

>>378280585
Jam is a rushdown character with strong pressure and short range that struggles against characters that can control space with far-reaching normals. Baiken relies on her good buttons, counter stance, and tatami to fish for opportunities to move in or punish and gets great damage in the corner. Elphelt has a lot of tools, very reliable oki, and very good corner pressure. All three are in a pretty good place, with Jam having the worst time of it since her bad matchups are all pretty popular characters (Ky, Sin, Johnny, etc.)

>>378280895
>>378277917

Yeah he is super braindead. He is a character where when you flowchart him, you are actually playing him correctly.

>>378277917
Raven is basically a vortex character for people who don't want to put in the work in Millia, Zato or Venom. I used to defend the guy, but after extended play with him, he's pretty much boring as fuck as there's no nuance to his strategy like Venom or Millia. Strong though, but boring.

Just train smart, Put aside like 15-20 minutes each day to learning something new or watching other Baiken players.

Also join the Baiken discord and make use of the resources and guides they have there. The guilty gear community is actually really helpful to new players as long as you do your research.

AC jam player here.

5K is a standing low and it's fast. 2H has tons of blockstun and is good for oki. Nice simple combo is 5K > 5S > 5H > 2H > 2D and either asanagi for a card or hochifu > punch > punch for damage.

She has norange with anything so learn what's safe. She needs her air approach, j.H is great since it hits all around her and can cross up. Charge cards, charged gekirin leads into some good damage juggles once you get comfortable. Charged DP becomes a true DP on par with volcanic viper when max charged.
Learn her movement tech, ryujin YRC is a good starter.
Parrying is nice but don't worry about it too much, it's hard to incorporate. Has it's uses but don't kick yourself if you don't use it.

Watch Lox and Teresa's match footage on youtube for examples on competitive Jam play, note how they use their cards and how they deal with getting in.
Jam is my gurl and she needs more love.

Thank you for the kind advice, but I already know her strengths and what I should be doing. That's why I said I feel like a retard playing her. Because I just mentally clock out during a match and I end up not doing much of anything. There are times where I sweep people into 22P, which is just wrong but I keep doing it. It's a mental thing, so I just have to give it time and keep trying.
