Didn't wanna muck up the Vid thread with exhaustive gameplay convo, so figured I'd move it here.
Notes on the A-Cho Vids:A-cho 1:I really liked What Duo Pulled off
HERE. It's great seeing His EX "command normals" used in such ways. Really feels similiar to some of Lin's tricks in 2k2UM.
A-Cho 2:I rather like how
Goro handeled K' in this first round. Why is it so rare to see Goro's Invincible throw used well? Would his weak special move Roll get him through some of the stuff he waited out here? And I remember how the Devs made a big point (back during the blogs) about giving Goro back that
poke, so it was good to see it used do well here.
And Aenthin, the whole "
Wait...what?" moment was great, too. K' just go punished for cutting to the low slide too early, and Ash's backwards hop leaped over the slide.
A-Cho 3:Elisabeth's combo
here at 3:05 was nicely timed to tag on yet 2 more uppercuts after HD wore off. Semi-shame the DM wasn't landed afterwards.
And
geeze, this was a shame for Ash. Betty drains 50% health with 2 drive cancels and 1 bar of Super meter, eh? All started off a counter hit jumping CD. The weak punch at the end just made the moment.
----------
Overall, there were some interesting things in these vids. My personal burning question though, is... why can't anyone play Maxima? Or, more specifically, are his guardpoints /autoguard on anything but EX dp +
THAT hard for the majority of players to use? I would think you'd see SOMEONE amidst all these vids that could use them to read and punish things that no other character can, but it seems rather rare.
