Ever since Dustloop has added a Hardware subforum, I've been thinking about making a thread for monitor discussion where users can discuss what monitors they've bought and used, their experiences with it, etc. One of the main reasons why I decided to make this thread is so that it may hopefully help people who are thinking about what monitor to buy make a more informed decision thanks to peoples' personal testimonies in this thread since sometimes, just looking at data from Display Lag may not be enough to convince you, sometimes you need to read/listen to the opinions and experiences of others. Maybe you may need to play on the actual monitor(s) in order to see if the monitor you're thinking to buy is the one you want which was the case for me. Also, please remember that Response Time =/= Display Lag. If any of the admin(s) and/or mod(s) don't find this thread helpful then feel free to close and/or delete it. Oh wow, just noticed today that this thread was Sticky'd, I'm glad the admin(s) and/or mod(s) saw this useful enough to warrant it. Hope it continues to be helpful to you all! HELPFUL PLACE TO START http://www.displaylag.com/ MONITORS THAT DUSTLOOP MEMBERS HAVE USED

I don't think anybody posted this account's CF videos here? There's a couple of good players here like the top Izayoi player atm. Show them love and subscribe to them etc etc. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCu0kB8KalLvowZLQ-I_Qlag

Pretty much SKD's initial write up for Izayoi when he was in Japan covered most if not all of her changes. Me and Blueriku's experiences with her at Round 1 simply confirm those changes. And you can still perform Astraea without Crusade Seraphim. Also, I recently happened upon footage of an Izayoi player who frequently uses Trans-Am. Really interesting stuff, I'm pretty sure these are things Izayoi was able to do in CPEX but the bits can turn an opponent's Burst attempt into a GCOD (which really compliments moveset since it can apparently cover GCOD pretty well), make GA 3C safe on block, cross under setups, etc. I just love the potential to this and I hope people really explore it in this version especially since it doesn't use up stocks/stars anymore. http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/so27700582?ref=search_key_video http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/so27700589?ref=search_key_video http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/so27700592?ref=search_key_video http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/so27700595?ref=search_key_video http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/so27700599?ref=search_key_video Also SKD, not sure if you'll read this but think we can have a CF Izayoi thread to discuss these changes and whatnot with the posts relating to her new CF version to be moved there? I probably should have made it myself when I first reported on her CF changes and additions now that I think about it but no harm done.

Since CF, just came out, there's not a lot of footage of her yet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSqCehx3464 https://youtu.be/jT4HCfjYSxU?t=31m53s And it doesn't hurt to look up CPEX videos as well, notable players include SKD and Chin respectively: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6hTKxmzrxYE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=APU5WhLzoRU The whole GA 2C(1) > 6B sequence has me wondering if it's possible to loop it somehow, especially off of Fatal Counter.

Izayoi Combo Videos galore Izayoi Normal Mode & Gain Art Combos by @peugeotk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss8Bp2CG4-k https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8Xiz4WP5B8 Izayoi Combo Video by Yayoi Kocha https://youtu.be/2eKJz92rSgI 【BBCF】 イザヨイ コンボムービー 「START DASH SENSATION」 by @peugeotk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy8w_CYP8xQ Izayoi Combo Video by @WHITE_ABSOL http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm27699173

We got CF combo videos guys: https://twitter.com/peugeotk/status/669200125349130240 In the tweet there's two videos, one is for Normal Mode combos and the other is Gain Art combos. Most Normal Mode combos from CPEX still work and I can speak from experience for this, (sans corner combos though?) As for Gain Art mode, due to Astraea's and GA 2C's new properties, midscreen combo damage is lower than before it seems (probably since you can't do something like ... 236B > 214B > 5C > 2C(1) > 3C > 236C~6D ...), but her corner damage seems fine (3.9k off of 5B starter for only 2 stocks and no meter).

Friendly reminder that Black Friday and Cyber Monday are coming soon. :)

Not really sure if this warranted a new thread so I'll just post here. Yesterday, I got a chance to play CF at Round 1 and here's my thoughts on Izayoi for anybody interested. -Aerial Crusade Seraphim (j.236B,C/j623B) are pretty nifty as SKD mentioned previously. Like the original grounded versions that they derive from, j236B cuts downwards, j236C horizontally and j623B upwards. They give her additional options to control space and they're quite fast as well. Also, while I wasn't able to really test this out myself, I figure they should give her a way to bait and punish those who like to mash 5A if Izayoi approaches them with her Gain Art dash. Take care not to whiff them obviously. I personally like that they stall her falling momentum for a bit as well. -As all of you know, she has a new j.B which is a horizontal kick. Covers a good amount of space in front of her so it should make a nice air to air. That should also make it so she doesn't have to approach as close as she did with the old j.B when hover dashing towards her opponent? Also not sure if it's slower or faster than her old j.B but overall, I personally don't miss the old j.B lol -Speaking of new moves, I love the new 236D/j236D as well. Still works the same as SKD mentioned in his writeup. The space coverage is really great at the cost of the sabers not putting her opponent is super long hitstun/blockstun but I'll take it. OD version is even more dumb, I can only imagine the setups with this move... -As for combos, since Astraea launches the opponent higher now, old Gain Art routes obviously won't work, sample combos I was doing were: Midscreen: 5B > 236C~6D > sj.B > j.C > dj.B > dj.C > j.623B~D* Corner: 5B > 236C~6D > 623C~D *Seems using j.236B and j.236C in the combo are legitimate alternatives as well? Recent Japanese match vids show players using j.623B though. -Also, Strike Fall still bounces but you're right in front of your opponent when you land so you can follow it up with something 5B 5C. How much you can depends on how the combo is prorated; didn't really mess around with it that much tbh. -Using GA 2C on crouching opponents on combos seems to kill the combo early? Probably seems to be an effect of CF's combo rate being even lower in general? Whatever the case, I'll personally miss it since I used it to bump up my damage a bit. Also heard that it doesn't really work in corner combos as well since the second hit "launches" the opponent higher? Haven't really seen it myself though. -Being able to finally get some sort of reward off of Normal Hit 6B is nice, thanks to aerial Crusade Seraphim. (j.236B in particular) Classic BnB to go for in Normal Mode is 6B > j.236B > 623B. Haven't really experimented in Gain Art mode nor what combos are possible in CH 6B -As for specific normals. Almost everything seemed the same except 3C and 6A. 3C slides her forward a bit as SKD mentioned before so that's cool. Couldn't really find a use for 6A since it doesn't force crouching anymore, makes me wonder if CF version of this move is the most useless one yet lol. Well, that's it for now. I'm not sure when's the next time I'll get a chance to play CF but personally, I don't mind spending a bit more time on CPE since the game doesn't really feel that different to me other than subtle differences? BONUS: ... 236C~6D > Astral still works despite 6D launching higher lol

Shouldn't we have a separate CF Izayoi thread for this?

I prefer LINE.

But I always thought it was widely accepted in east Asia that being slim is more aesthetically pleasing than being buff/bulky as opposed to in the West? Anyway I have no problems with the new HUD other than how the Combo Counter looks but I'm just nitpicking at this point.

At least Izayoi gets stocks for Gain Art if I wanted a Burst but got Overdrive instead.

Display Lag doesn't seem to have Princeton monitors on their site (this is the first time I've heard of them) even though they have apparently updated their database. Personally, at the end of the day, if you're able to play on the monitor just fine with little to no execution errors, then by all means, feel free to play on it

Speak for yourself. Nothing against pad users but ever since I transitioned to stick, I noticed a noticeable decrease in missed/accidental inputs. I'm not saying that buying a stick will solve all of your execution problems, if any, but you should be open to the idea of trying to play with a stick and seeing if it will work better or worse for you. ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy lmao Anyway back on topic, I wonder if French Bread are still open to the idea of making Tsukiyomi playable.

I too went to Daisuke's panel at Anime Expo. Shame I was one of the unlucky few who couldn't ask him a question but I enjoyed every minute of it and I'm glad I was able to go. And while this may or may not be obvious, but one person asked "When's Jam?" and Daisuke replied that they really are planning on adding everybody in Xrd, it's just that they're a small team and it will take some time for this to happen.

IIRC, I remember reading a tweet by SKD saying that it's height specific? Perhaps he can elaborate more. In any case, I've been more successful when it's off of something like ... 6C > (623C) > j.B > j.C > dj.C > Noir > Strike Fall > Phorizer.

Would also be nice if we could finally be able to use the old AC H and D colors as well. If not then hopefully someone can find a way to "hack" them in? I miss using DIO's A.B.A color as well as her white/blue palette.

HOKUTO NO KEN!?!?!?

Thanks. Back to my usual method of grinding 30 second rounds of Unlimited Stylish Tager vs Taokaka while I'm away for easy money then. Also, when viewing my D-Card, how do I have my main show up as opposed to Ragna who's the default character?

How much P$ do you get for clearing the story? I'm going to assume it's like Xrd (Probably the other way around if this is true since CP came first) and that you get a hefty amount of P$ for doing so. Thinking about just "turboing" Story Mode the entire night while I sleep.

It seems like it was only yesterday when French Bread announced that they're looking for artists for a new HD 2D fighting game with "let's defeat the hateful BlazBlue" as their goal in mind. Fast forward to summer 2014 when ArcSys has helped port UNIEL to PS3 and now they're a co-developer now? What happened to the hate?
