Reioumu Report post Posted May 13, 2011 I really should start posting here, since well, I have an account. Though I felt I'd share my thoughts on Platinum here... - Get two controllers - Start up training mode, two Platinums, using your favourite colours, stage and theme - Attain some gaffa tape - Enemy Status: Controller - Tape down 2 on one of the D-Pad/Left Stick on the first controller ***HERE COMES THE SUPER TRICKY PART!!*** - Carefully, and I mean CAREFULLY time the 2 input on the second controller while both Platinums are beside each other so that they either... a) Nod left and right simultaneously b) The contrary to the above - Tape the button/direction down - Watch for a bit, then just watch... because that's all you'll want to ever do.. watch, 'cause that's what guys do when they see super cute girls doing super cute things... watch.

YukiBlue Report post Posted May 13, 2011 IDK what Ragna you were playing who does Inferno Divider on wakeup It's Xbox Live, Expecting anything more would be foolish. I've had some Coffee, Freshened up, and decided to clarify a few things. 1) CS2 Ragna works best in the corner. And to get you to the corner, a simple ID (From what I've seen on XBL. You are NEVER safe.) Once in the corner, 70% of the time you will go into "Berial edge" which we all simply adore. 2) Jesus Kick - Sword Swings - Hells fang > IF you block Hells fang, or even better, IB it. Let out an A bubble, with luck, and platinum's "New-ness" Mr.Originality might just run right into it. OR, Be a man and bash out Mami circular on IB. Ragna doesn't seem much of a thread in V.1.03. So I guess the only way to play against his strengths is to do it yourself. Platinum has a stupid amount of Tool's so I'd say it's going to be a while before anything definitive comes up.

Kujikawa Report post Posted May 13, 2011 I can't hit this 6C > 22C to save my life Make sure you are doing a quick, short delay. I had the problem where I was delaying too much and the 5C wouldn't hit. I really should start posting here, since well, I have an account.

Kurushii Report post Posted May 13, 2011 If someone doesn't mind saying, what are Platinum's cons? -Slow Normals compared to most of the cast for entering in with -All item required combos/setups are highly situational being it's completely random -Only good reversal option is situational, which is her 5D Magical Bat -Only good wakeup option is situational, which is her 5D Magical Bat -Only ONE Fatal Counter and it's one of the slowest in the game, which is her 6C Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kurushii Report post Posted May 13, 2011 I see. Thanks. What about her mixup and pressure? Her mixup and pressure game is great. Also can corner carry anyone from midscreen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hawkmania Report post Posted May 13, 2011 Well, she has an amazing pressure game to say the least - When you can get in close, I know that 5B and 5C can chain into 6A - Mami Circular is advised NOT to be used for a pressure game as it's a highly unsafe move on block -> However, one you hit it right, mid or full screen you should probably think about what to do with your current item -> Near a corner, you can follow up for a good corner bnb, be it using 22C pickups or hammer loops -> If you land a close up 6A, 5C 236B, you can follow up with a second 236B to almost always push your opponent into a corner to follow up as necessary. I don't know much, but there are MUCH more options for Platinum. However one of her greatest downfalls is indeed landing in pokes with slow start up. Which is why 5B would be recommended imo unless you're intending to pressure with 5A. ---QUICK NOTE--- Note how in the Combos section, it pins that a dashed combo start up makes her combos more effective. This also applies to her pressure game. Against certain characters, a dashed 5B, 5C 236A can catch opponents off guard quite well, good for resets, baiting a burst if they expect you to use Mami Circular I hope I managed to help a bit d<_< EDIT: Replaced "Magical Symphony" with "Mami Circular" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
