Ok let's organize some ideas about Edge here.Right after I posted, I found this on Reddit. Hope that helps some?
OK cool so we have both chains and links. Now if only we have some frame data to see what exactly we can do lol.There are links and also chains. With edge i've been doing (cr.L), cr.L, cl.MHHxxHeavy Gamma, dash, cl.HxxAlpha. If I'm close to the corner I don't use the wallbounce from heavy gamma and just go straight to alpha. Did not know you can do cl.M into cr.L though.
I guess with numbers it would be cr.1, cl.233xxHeavy Gamma, dash, cl.3xxAplha.
The first L/1 is in parenthesis because you can do 1 or 2 to confirm. I don't know the best way to write the followups for Edge's special moves so hopefully heavy gamma isn't too confusing. Maybe Gamma3?
Also I wouldn't call anything a string. More like a target combo since they only come out on hit/block, not whiff. (Which is the way i prefer in a 2d fighter.)
You're gonna love it.JUST GOT MY CODE!
No, I play Dauntless and the edge match is fine but have you played the match against Chel? She can just zone. Maybe we shouldn't talk about how bad a matchup is in the alpha though lolI honestly think Dauntless v Edge is one of the worst matchups. Dauntless has great normals, mixups and damage. Edge has great mixups and damage but dauntless's are easier. Like I have to get in but I can't and since my DP has a cooldown I'd have to run away until it comes back, Any edge players figure this out?
Have you tried Dauntless yet? She's very fun to play imo.This game is sick, Crow is super fun to play.
here some edge combos i found on ytSo I've been trying to pick up Edge -- is there any reliable way to keep the juggle going? I'm labbing right now and it seems like a button-mashing crapshoot.
Do you have the specs to run it? If you do try reporting the bug on the forums, they're looking for all the feeback possible:Hmm, wonder why my laptop is having trouble running this...
Well what does edge do against dauntless when you play? As for chel, Edge can absorb projectiles with his Alpha so it's actually not that bad lol. I figure Dauntless would just armor through projectiles or do that spin hook. An alpha is a fine time to talk matchups.No, I play Dauntless and the edge match is fine but have you played the match against Chel? She can just zone.

Well, I play Dauntless but everytime I play against an Edge it's always just footsies, blocking and punishing - especially that low slide, I need to always make sure that they know they can't throw that out for free and get awaywith it. It's nothing too big to deal with, it seems fairly equal. Dauntless can use her dustbreaker to go through it and her revolving hook but you need to be quite close for that to work and Chels shouldn't be throwing fireballs at point-blank range.Well what does edge do against dauntless when you play?

I'm fine with discussing matchups cause i see as just a fun part of playing fighters. The characters interact in different ways and it's cool to see what's what. . . at least imo. I know some people get too crazy with it. Plus I actually need help with this lol. And I'm sure the guys at Radiant want to know what everyone is feeling on balance. Obviously nothing concrete cause it's so early but a general feel. Maybe that's just me if I was designing a fighter.Well, I play Dauntless but everytime I play against an Edge it's always just footsies, blocking and punishing - especially that low slide, I need to always make sure that they know they can't throw that out for free and get awaywith it.

I thought you weren't supposed to really to talk about matchups this early into a game's development, maybe I'm too used to NRS games and the community crucifying people for that sort of stuff haha
I like your attitutde to discussing matchups, don't see that a lot around here haha. I currently feel the game is generally well balanced with the 6, 7 or 8 characters there is.I'm fine with discussing matchups cause i see as just a fun part of playing fighters.

Can't dauntless rush punch through the fireballs? I figured since it has armor on it, but I don't know if it's safe. feels like it. As for the hook why not just use the invincibility on it to get through the fireball not just as a way to punish chel for throwing them out.
As for edge, I meant what does edge do to you. When I play against a dauntless it's just me trying to figure a way in while the Dauntless press any and all buttons. Her pokes outrange Edge and I've jumped over a few mashing Dauntless just for them to block my crossup anyways. Really feels like an uphill battle right now.
How are you punishing slide? It seems safe to me lol.I like your attitutde to discussing matchups, don't see that a lot around here haha. I currently feel the game is generally well balanced with the 6, 7 or 8 characters there is.
Oh the Cold Drill, now that you mention it I haven't tried it but it should work. I think the blue around her is super armour, like Talo's f+h. I'll give it a shot next time I run into that, thanks!
What does Edge do to me? Edge generally starts by throwing out some unsafe low slides, which I punish after blocking. Then after that, if I throw out a poke it's his job to whiff punish me or do a jump in punch. Edge also has to make sure he punishes me when I throw out a Dust Breaker and he blocks it as it's hella unsafe.
The slide is +1How are you punishing slide? It seems safe to me lol.
Well there it is. Mind telling me how you know?The slide is +1
