Okay, so we both had no idea wtf I was talking about (and I don't think I got much of what you were saying either). Also, I was responding to the anime bit, and this one seems to be set during CT if the trailer says anything. Also, yeah. I'm just as much a novice to the series as any other scrub it seems. Hoping things will get better once BBCP comes out in October (assuming that's the NA Release), because the way I see it, I'm not seeing much progress in BBCSE.

Oh really? I didn't get that during their little Calamity Trigger Re:Dux fight; but then again, you might be referencing the ORIGINAL Calamity Trigger, which I have not played. So I can claim lack of knowledge based on a lack of experience here. And in case you weren't aware (or it wasn't painfully obvious enough for you), I'm talking about her obvious copy-pasta appearance in BB:CSEX. That's where I was talking about her soulless appearance.

So tell me, why wasn't she more emotional in the actual fight itself? ArkSys couldn't afford to do separate voices for Nu, and just used the droll, soulless voice from Lambda-11? I mean, heck, Ragna VS Jin/Hakumen at least has alternate lines - they couldn't be bothered to trigger alternate lines for Nu/U.Lambda VS Ragna? That just screams incompetence and either improper use of budget or one that's lacking altogether. Story mode and out of combat, sure I'll admit she's crazy, but why the hell'd they have to be cheap and not make it unique whilst in combat as well? Really makes me question the competence of ArkSys sometimes. Sure, can't do anything about it now, but y'know, why was it never considered before? EDIT: Ninja reply. Yeah, well, Mori seems to think otherwise. And besides, if Lambda was that effective, why not have Kokonoe manufacture another one based off of Lambda? I get that Lambda was salvaged, but couldn't Kokonoe have innovated and created a pseudo-Murakumo Unit in that short amount of time? Or.... is she putting all her chips into the two baskets called Iron Tager and Makoto Nanaya? At this point, all signs point to Kokonoe being more of an idiot than she seems.

However, in all seriousness, they made Nu-13 have a fuckton more emotion for this anime compared to even her in-game form. I mean, game-wise, all Nu-13 is at this point is just the base for the palette swap atrocity that is Lambda-11. And IMHO, that should've been Kokonoe's spot at the very least. But eh, at least Lambda's existence was pretty useful, plot-wise.

Okay, when's the next Dustlooper session taking place? I'm forcing my way in - whether anyone here cares or not.

70 losses?! How is it you can withstand that much?! I'd be sobbing buckets/roaring expletives before I even hit 30 losses, let alone 50. I can't even last 10 losses. How do you do it? What's your secret?

Hazama? Really? I don't quite understand why he's easy. Jin, maybe, but HAZAMA?! How on earth is HE strong and easy? I thought that privilege went to Noel.

Really? I always thought it was cliche of the FG pros to use the basic starter character as a basis for an insult of one's skill (Ragnafag, Ryuscrub, etc). I avoided them simply because of how common the stigma of weak players using those characters seemed to be. Was worried over nothing~ And I'll try and seek out that Leonil fella - he seems like a good person.

Would anyone care for a few rounds in about an hour or two? I need some grub in mah belly before I start doing anything.

That's kinda what I don't get - what's with people saying that only "scrub casuals who don't play seriously" play Ragna? Isn't that logic kinda, well, flawed?

I could seriously use some counseling on the matter of picking Ragna. Half of the reason I don't like picking Ragna is because a lot of players tend to use his "overpowered" status as a means to bash the player as a whole - i.e. "You can't win unless you use broken-tier Ragna", or "Yeah, you're just a tier-whoring fag", or "Those who play Ragna never play BlazBlue seriously". I realize I'm not supposed to give into these kind of assholes, but driving people away because of something that's considered "overpowered" and "broken" is what scares me in trying out Ragna. Ragna seems to have the very things I need to properly learn FGs - and he's offense oriented as well. But just the idea of getting picked on for playing a "Typical Overpowered Shotofag" makes me afraid to play Ragna as a whole. I want to main Ragna, but in the rare case of those whiny losers, is there anyone who plays somewhat like Ragna that I could main as a means to shut said idiots up? At least this way I can get both my main and sub out of the way as far as choosing.

Yeah. My bad, sorry.

Well that's good to hear. Still doesn't change my mind about how I feel towards a good chunk of SSF4AE's community (granted there are chunks of good people; it's the "child thugstarz" that I can't stand).

Or "ass husbando" if that floats your boat. It's true that you should pick the character that you like best. However, if you're only getting fun out of the game BECAUSE of that character, or because of their theme, and not actually focusing on winning, then yeah, you're gonna trip and fall. Either that, or those Melty freaks had no idea what they were talking about. EDIT: My response to the OP below: I need to apologize. On a general level, anytime someone says the words "Street Fighter", I immediately assume they have an ego trip and are out for fame/glory/etc. Especially when you mention Yun or any character like him, since I consistently hear people whining about him. But I had no idea that Yun was nerfed. Because I've not seen anyone talk smack about him no longer being a god tier. My bad, I should probably back out of this one. These guys definitely know what they're talking about.

Airk, I think this "kid", whoever he is, wants a character that simply has one move that's like a guaranteed "win" button. This is just my take on it, but it seems the inquiring individual here (in this case, the OP's friend) has some kind of a "right to win" complex. Not unlike myself to some degree, and DEFINITELY not unlike Star-Demon. @OP: Ask your friend this - is he looking for a character with a cheap "guaranteed to win" move that will ensure he wins and wins all the time? If so, I think his problem may be an inflated ego, which you may want to look into hitting him to cure it (or some other less bold and brazen method). I'm pretty sure everyone knows that Yun's Dive Kick is considered an airborne normal, and from my experience, no character I know has that. Furthermore, you said he was considering Mu-12, but was that because of looks? Tell him to stop it with the "playing character love" if he wants to even remotely have a chance of "winning". Because ignoring everyone else as a potential investment is not only shortsighted and ignorant, but also severely limits your knowledge of the game - and that's one part of what helps one "win".
