Melty Blood: Please play it


Recommended Posts

is anybody else a little bit disappointed that Kouma doesn't use his legs and feet to strike opponents all that much? It's mostly grappling and punches and palms with him

 

I understand he's obviously not gonna be "lol Enkidu 2.0" but still

Fucking Seiba, why on gods green earth fucking Seiba.

Man, I have been let down so much by these reveals this far, that this game can't do anything to further lower my expectations.

Es is just shitty Saber anyway so this is really the best solution for everyone.  I thought you'd be thrilled!  🙂

No, I don't like Seiba, at all actually.

She's really bland and onedimensional and her only outstanding feature is..... being a Glutton.

They could have taken anyone

The Melty Blood netcode is very nice, even across seas with my bestie in Finland. A 20 year hiatus from this series. LOL. I think during matches, I shouldn't be lost in deep thought, because I tend to analysis things in the sessions in this genre especially. However, I've managed in my first session in 20 years. LOL. It was nice practice, evaluating in the groove.

Played a little bit this morning and it feels like HYPER Undernight to me. 

 

But one thing that's been messing with me is the implementation of autocombos. It does the thing I like where you utilize it inside of a more complex combo, but the thing that I keep getting hung up on is that it will automatically take you to the air if you autocombo after a launcher. 

 

Which turns into a problem because muscle memory has me jump canceling. If I jump cancel after the auto combo jump, my double jump jc gets eaten more or less and the combo falls apart. 

 

It's not a huge deal, but I don't get why they did that really... It sorta makes it easier to continue a combo in the air, but I haven't played any other fighting games that will do that for you.

Nice sessions overall today in Melty Blood. The offensive variation approaches are slowly returning to me. I was told today that my rushdown game is sick from the launch of this. LOL. I'll take that as a compliment, but I wish to get much more stronger. I will.

So far so good.

I prefer strive.
I am not gonna do ranked in this game and keep it as a casual game to play with discord frens.
Apparently Ranked mode is broken as fuck n PC so it was not even a  bad idea.

Still can't find a main, but I haven't gone through the whole cast yet. 

 

I done goofed and should of played just regular old Melty before dipping into type lumina. I'm not a fan of rekkas or follow up specials and it seems like everyone in this game has them. Gotta get through the rest of the cast first

I saw some massive balance patch notes with Jiyuna translating it on Twitter, I’ll copy the thread below (he adds more in the comments as well).

 

Not sure what that means for the game though… I still haven’t played it, even though I own it, but from the little that I knew, the shield mechanic seemed a little too strong and prominent… it seems they adjusted shield quite a bit, but I am not sure how that actually effects it’s usage (is it a buff or a nerf, etc)

Those notes are not complete, new features like "bounce bonus" were seen and not explained at all.  Based on what those notes DO say and what the videos showed, shield has more recovery and the anti-heat os has basically been removed with an extra option added to delay heat to mess with people trying to handle it. Guard cancel heat is bigger too. The window of time for inputs during a shield interaction is also supposed to be wider. Shield also no longer gives guaranteed punishes on non-invulnerable ex moves, bc you can now shield back. 

 

With no other knowledge these changes seem to encourage more use of ex moves to zone, and less ways to deal with defense by buffing heat now that it can be delayed and is better on guard cancel.  This is... not what people wanted or expected bc everyone was complaining defense was way too strong with too much shield rps, but it remains to be seen how it'll play out. Maybe these changes make the game better maybe it's worse its hard to say. 

 

I will say though

My Mario is gonna be nice
