God I so badly want to like this game but I hate the combo length. I would be fine with 1f links or disgusting mix but I struggle to bring myself to sit through a 10+s combo off of a BNB.
However, I can't find anyone on MBTL, so should I try this game again or no? I am excited for Izumi ngl she looks cool.
>>714745812
A little, but as you might expect I'm not very good at picking up and playing new characters. But another dude who is a lab monster was figuring out some neat stuff with her on Thursday
What's the general consensus on Izumi so far?
The only thing i really know about her is that she has like a fish install/stock, it's a bit hard to find info atm.
Is she rushdown/zoner/all-rounder? Is she hard to play?

She can only do a follow-up if the fish is attack so without it she only has the 2nd hit of the rekka which doesn't seem like a good ender.
She's like a mix of Chaos, Enkidu, Lond, and Kaguya.

Consensus says that she's pretty easy >Has a rekka but the third hit is only available with fish active >Fish can be activated with FF, which is a reversal with really short active frames or 22X >Has a shitton of IC moves. Some like 5[C] makes her airborne or one her IC B buttons throws out a fireball >Has bubble oki >Has combo-able throw in the corner or with bubble and a combo-able IW >66C seems to act like an Enkidu 66C >FF command dashes look pretty interesting at the moment
Have you seen the one Ogre combo using FF to keep the opponent airborne to time the bomb? It's really tough to time outside of baiting someone's DP, blocking it, and starting the combo.

I'm not going to sit here and convince you to play a game with something you clearly dislike in it. MBTL would have felt worse with how many characters are going to be shoving EX moves in there and with even less combo variety so not only will you be sitting through 10+ seconds of combos but it'll be the same one more often than not.
Do whatever the fuck you want.

ive seen melty blood combos that put seth's stupid combo length to shame >>714747938
i think i've seen something like that but i haven't put it into practice
frankly I only use scuffed combos across the entire cast
Did the goddamn roar delete my ball? GGs
I need to figure out how I'm supposed to play Mika, I thought tossing out j.[C]s and 236s were supposed to win neutral for me

One of our Mikas makes great use of both command grabs as well as j623X and 22X. That being said, Mika doesn't do well in the Hyde match-up.
