@JBeezYBabY Just thought I would drop this here, this is a pretty good showing of how the Mi-Na vs. Maxi MU goes in case you run into one. Xephukai has a pretty nasty Mi-Na since he dropped Xianghua for her.

Finally got a chance to watch this. His focus is more guard breaking. Interesting. Maybe I should start doing that too. Thx for this :)

And this week im down to play!

Sounds good, I’ve mostly been playing Destiny 2 and replaying Dragon Age:Inquisition so just hmu if you see me on and want some games.

Edit: Yeah, Xeph focuses a lot on guard crushing because Mi-Na does so much guard damage and a lot of time people just sit there and eat 44A+B on wake up because her Oki game is so scary you don’t want to ukemi and eat a 44A LH combo. His combos are pretty clean with her too.

I’ve gotta say, some things never change. I still absolutely despise fighting Sophie as a Raphael and Tira player. The MU isn’t fun for either of them. Raph has to play completely defensive against Sophie because she has so many step moves that tech crouch so he can’t step kill pretty much at all. Tira just struggles for a lot of the same reasons but she at least kills Sophie on her block punishes in Gloomy.

if you asked the Talim players they would say Mi-Na is super cancer for Talim lmao. I was honestly just being salty, Raph does fine against X and Sophie. If I only played Tira I would have a right to be hella salty though because they kind of wreck her.

Talim is a really overwhelming character if you don’t know her cancel frame data and what beats what. Generally speaking if she does her WNC (the sidestep) your 2A beats every single option except the K which does like 14? damage. That’s what I noticed being your problem against the Talims. Also don’t stay grounded against her a TON of her moves hit grounded even if they look like they shouldn’t.

That was some good play by you Beezy. You really need to let me teach you the Raphael MU though, that guy was playing super gimmicky. He was doing shadow evade A and then immediately doing like 6B afterwards and constantly doing 4A after 1K which is minus on hit. You still beat him despite the fact that he was playing super gimmicky.

Another Xephukai Mi-Na video if you're interested @JBeezYBabY He plays the character very well considering how little he's played her compared to Xianghua and Sophitia.

I did see a bit of it before i streamed. I think this may be his new main. But maaaan I have to show you THIS shit i came across on my stream. You just watch and tell me what you think.

Man, that’s a whack CaS making a klan member. On another note, nice 27 game win streak, it looks like you must have knocked the rust off. Do you have some time you want to get some MU learning games in?

SC6 Grand Finals was so hype it was insane. The whole top 8 was great. Kayane finally making an official SC EVO top 8 was awesome as well, she’s been playing for longer than almost anyone else there.

I’m really interested in the Season 2 changes. It looks like charged RE will no longer be unblockable from the video which all I can say as a Raphael and Tira player since they both use RE well is thank god.

Apparently Tira is confirmed getting buffs and I hope that’s partially in the way of better control over her mood swaps. Getting BA’d out of Gloomy fucking sucks. RE being blockable would mean Raphael would get guaranteed prep pressure off it which is much stronger IMO.

Hope to see this guy in Season 2:

Z. W. E. I was cool but the game already has a super edgy character (Groh) and he was probably one of the worst characters in the history of Soul Calibur in SCV in terms of strength. He was so bad it was laughable.

I guess that doesn’t mean anything though since Raphael is normally garbage and he was broken as hell on release for SC6.

Edit: That’s not me saying ZWEI wouldn’t be a cool choice since his design is so unique. It just seems unlikely since Setsuka, Aeon, and Hwang/Yun-Seong are missing still.
