[CP] Hakumen General Discussion

[Tecta1Eastside]

isnt hakumen basically the same as extend with a new cross-up agito move?
his mix-up game isnt that great and still cost meter, he still does alot of damage after you save meter for awhile, like what else is new? besides OD combos which a good amount have good characters have OD combos as well. its your fault when hakumen hits you and your fault when he rapes you. IDK but that's my two cents

[mAc Chaos]

Yup. People just making extra salt for my fries.

agito being able to crossup isn't even half of what makes that move so good..

Then what is it that makes agito good? I havent really watched too much hakumen recently.

[Errol]

Agito is massive + on block.

[mAc Chaos]

The crossup isn't a big deal. What I like about it is how you can go into j.B afterwards and use it for throw mixup.

But it's not like it's broken or anything. It's not even an overhead.

Jd is definitely comboable: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature...0hKWCq8#t=450s

@Blade: South central. If you want to add me we can take it for a spin sometime; i am always willing to try.

@Rath: i literally haven't turned on my ps3 since then rofl ): i'm sorry!

Agito is the ketchup of Hakumen's moveset, you can just about put in anywhere, anytime, all the time.

Ridiculously plus on block (which means you can continue to pressure even if the opponent blocks it), difficult to AA it, very fast, can use it off a hop, causes cross up if spaced correctly, only requires one star, has projectile attributes, comboability off a CH, using it at the end of a combo gives you oki, pretty safe way of getting in close, barely even unsafe on whiff even.

That's all I could think of at the top of my head.

Did Zantetsu get a speed buff because I see 5c>zantetsu quite a bit lately, and those two don't normally link into each other like that. Also zantetsu seems to be blocked less than previous versions of BB. Just my observations though.

[itsme]

I think people are doing 5C>Guren>Zantetsu to combo, don't think 5C straight up connected to Zantetsu except on counter hit and maybe air knockdown or crouching confirm? Also, I think it's just because Zantetsu is being used a lot more compared to the previous game so it looks like less people are blocking it.
