I was wondering about dragon rush too. I seen Skeer tweet that it can be countered with grab if you block. Another question though... I’ve never played an anime game. How do you Anti air in this game? Lol.

played 3 opponents so far and they have eaten some nice 20+ combos
LOL
This is nothing. I did so far 2 impossible comebacks.

My char got around of 15%, and my opponent had 50% and more HP with each char. My other two chars died, so I had Beerus left. I had to be Beerus to do this impossible comeback.

2nd one was that I was at the corner with my opponent's pressure. Both of ours other chars died in the progress. He had more like 30%, and I around 5%. I reflexed out his 3-4 attacks, before I switch sides with him and punish him.

LOL

Some tips for the beta

  • Learn a Superdash punish, everyone is just spamming it you can just check that bs easy
  • Use Vanish when your opponent uses raw/neutral supers, you can whiff cancel anything into vanish and just dodge almost all Supers. Probably not a good idea against Buu's pink rain or Piccolo's Hellzone
  • Superdash through Beerus's orbs. Everyone wants to use this guy nobody seems to know how yet. Neutral orbs get evaporated by Superdash. Trying to control the neutral without smart assist support is just very easy to deal with. Same goes for Piccolo's Homing Orbs. These things will have their role but optimal use of them will come in time.
  • Use lvl 3 super to easy blow up Cell's teleport

Had a lot of fun so far, but with no training mode I'm more likely to just wait for the full release. Played ~5 matches and lost pretty hard, but was having fun regardless. Don't know why devs don't want to include a training mode (IJ2 PC beta had the same thing).

Yeah, I’m a player very dependent on a training mode. Especially in a game genre I’ve never played before (anime).

I’m doing pretty good in ranked matches, but it’s just based on my fighting game fundamentals. None of my matches/wins are “good”, it feels like I’m just doing shit lol.

Also, in one of the discords I’m in (BeyondToxins), someone was using anime notations and it made ZERO sense to me. So to help those new like myself, check out this site: http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Notation

Love the game so far, just have little idea what the hell I’m doing.

Some tips for the beta

  • Learn a Superdash punish, everyone is just spamming it you can just check that bs easy. Not only it punishes, but also avoids the zonings.
  • Use Vanish when your opponent uses raw/neutral supers, you can whiff cancel anything into vanish and just dodge almost all Supers. Probably not a good idea against Buu's pink rain or Piccolo's Hellzone, or Beerus's spark orbs. Use it only at zoning, or in combos.
  • Superdash through Beerus's orbs. Everyone wants to use this guy nobody seems to know how yet. Neutral orbs get evaporated by Superdash. Trying to control the neutral without smart assist support is just very easy to deal with. Same goes for Piccolo's Homing Orbs. These things will have their role but optimal use of them will come in time.
  • Use lvl 3 super to easy blow up Cell's teleport.
  • Use AA for jumping characters from Piccolo and Kid Buu's abilities to enlarge their limbs. Will be useful for combos and re-grab.
Some tips from me, as well.
 
dont forget guys if u want to get used to anime fighter basics, get an cheap copy of blazblue for instance.
there u have trials, tutorials and a good practice mode.
if u guys master bb combos (including jump cancel combos for instance) then ur ready when dbfz comes out.
i would grind the shit out of blazblue!

Or Guilty Gears. Both games come from ASW.
