Soul Calibur 6: THE SOUL STILL BURNS!

Roy Arkon

I will leave my seal on you!
I did it for Mortal Kombat X, I did for Injustice 2, and now I did it for Soul Calibur VI. I got the Platinum trophy, by getting the Hunters Become the Hunted trophy in Libra of Soul with my Yoshimitsu CaS!

Slowly learning the 2B MU. Visually she's a mind fuck to play against but it does seem alot of her shit is pretty unsafe once you get used to her. She's definitely the flavor of the month, the army of 2B's online right now is real, lol.

Finally back home from spending the holiday with my family, and went back in to SCVI!
And of course that means I made a new CaS! :p





I know people are hating on 2B right now, but I'm having a lot of fun with her style! It's flashy and stylish, and I can do some cool-looking shit! :D

Well the 2B army is almost gone now and i expect with some nerfs (most likely) in the next patch there will be few left. Thou i enjoy playing her from time to time, Cervantes is love SC IV, even if he's not great.

I just dont understand the hate for 2B. Maybe because shes hard to deal with online? But i play a ton against her and shes not that bad to deal with it. I still HATE fighting Nightmare waaaaaay more even after he got nerfed.

And do we know for sure she's getting nerfed? If she does, that will be the dumbest character adjusting thus far.

She isn't as hard to deal with as I thought she was going to be, but she does have some stuff that is easy to get confused by. I could easily see some lower end players getting bodied by her and not figuring it out.

I still lose to characters in this game, but I have had a lot more success fighting 2B than a few of the others. I've struggled at times, but I kind of doubt she needs much adjustment.

I'd like to play her a little but I think you have to have a better brain than I've got to keep mixing her options up.

You really gotta play mind games with her mix-ups but with her long strings, its easy to get caught up doing em over and over again ESPECIALLY online. And her robot fishing attack actually plays like a high grab version of Ivy but not as easy to pull off. She might seem annoying to deal with but she has tons of holes in trickery. Its just funny to see soooo many scrubs complain that they just straight up HATE her. It tickles my taint ;)

No idea what are you talking about.

I think 2B is weak, mediocre at best, i did play her, lab her i see nothing to be afraid; not to mention any hate. There was just a lot of new players and old players trying her so i had fight billions of 2B in ranked which is fine, thou boring in a long run. Thats over now.

I barely see anybody in my (~20k RP and more) ranks using 2B seriously. She has tons of gaps, is minus on almost everything, easy to GI.

Tell most of the casual streamers and Reddit kids that too. People HATE fighting against her. Its sad to see the hate because it shows how fucking scrubby the consensus of people play this game that are quick to complain than actually know the match-up.

I know she got ton of flaws but i love her design so much, I'm willing to go deeper into his kit and try to succeed in the higher ranks. Almost at 10,000 RP. To me, thats a milestone :)

You know me as RisingShieldBro online.
Once people realize you can mash 2A/2B or RE against her stance, then they will stop complaining. It's the smart 2B players that know how to beat these options that causes the whining.

She's fun and definitely not overpowered. What we have here is the common outcome of cryers refusing to lab her options or not knowing the MU because she's new to the series.

Once Cassandra comes out, I expect that we will have the opposite effect if she mostly keeps the same moveset.

Btw, @Immortal I made Ronin Kenshi from MKX if you want to see:

That Kenshi is pretty dope!

So i decided to make a discussion on Reddit and lets just say....it blew up to a ton of discussion and complaining like you mentioned.

Reddit is a shitshow. There are only two things worth something in that disscusion about 2B:

AAAA - Can GI the third hit, can duck the fourth hit
BBBB - Can GI the third hit
AAB - Can sidestep the third hit
4BBB - Can sidestep the third hit
6AA - Can duck the second hit
6AAA - Can GI the second hit, can sidestep the third hit
8WR AAA - Can GI the third hit
8WR K - Can duck the second hit
WR BB - Can GI the second hit
AGS~BB - Can sidestep the third hit
and:

AGS~A is -10 on block, AGS~B is -18, AGS~ is -14, and AGS~K is -12.
Thats about it.

Funny how THAT even got downvoted because ppl dont care about learning. They just want to complain. But im glad i made that to post because i genuinely wanted to see why ppl hate her so much. NOW I'm gonna make it my mission to really excel with her to piss people off more by winning. And BAAAAABY Uncle JBeezY already came up with some SICK setups that produces soooo much salt, its delicious ;)

Just saw that and i do not agree with this list. I mean, Talim and Mitsu as A+?? Really? No no no no
Tier lists are always highly debatable, but I'm a Party Wolf fan boy and his list holds more weight than most imo. Talim is absolute aids by the way, I've had more salty messages typed up and deleted shortly after crying my eyes out about this character lol.

Oh i know Talim is a lil shit but shes hella beatable and not as powerful as Ivy by a long shot. Shes more like a B+

What do ya'll think about the leaks of the next DLC characters being Cassandra and Amy. Do you feel they deserve a spot if the rumors are true ?Question mark?
The data mine seems legit but who knows. I'll check out Cassandra for sure. Honestly I'm not super familiar with a lot of the OG SC characters to know who I'd want. I literally picked Kilik because my son said "he looks cool" and he's turned out to be one of the most fun characters I've ever played in a FG.
