Nightmare has no punishes, get in his face and party :yeshrug: i still think he is really good though. Nightmares have to utilize GI to be the most effective
Getting in his face sounds good until he does that power up which act as a counter and soul charge.

if they want to be taken serious as a proper esports fighting game, they will need to have a separate mode, like how Injustice 2 handled the gear system. can't use ranked as a viable option for tournament practice when you have to deal with wacky customs like this

Game doesn't really need any balancing maybe some very slight things but not much at all. Ivy is good at range and annoying like a zoner should be, she's weak up close but not helpless.


Nightmare and seig hit like trucks but have a ton of holes and unsafe moves.


At about F1 you really have to start knowing punishes and string or have great netural to win more than lose. Granted the way ranking is if you just keep playing you'll advance up, but eventually you'll get to people who are going to dominate random unsafe and button swinging.

I don't they intended for Mina to be as solid up close as she is.

I agree for the most part the game seems pretty balanced so far. I don't think theres been one character dominating tourneys.

Is it just me or does have more range matter in this game more than in previous games? Maybe it's because Taki doesn't have her double ninja cannon to close in anymore that it's bothering more.

I swear I don't think yall realize how much Taki is nerfed. It's Sean from 2nd impact to 3rd strike level bad.

Can somebody explain to me what's happening when I'm glowing blue playing as Seigfried and when there is the purple orb floating around me fighting against Zsalamel? :lupe:

When you low on life you get azure aura it allow for his forward A+B move to be used which is super good. Basically its like a manual rage burst.

Zas puts curses on you that allows him to freeze time during some of his moves and extend combo's or get pressure (max is 3 curses)

Eh ok I do not like the Taki mirror match because Taki has a setup where Taki herself HAS to GI it to get out of it. No setup should require you to GI it. It wouldn't work against Astoroph or Nightmare though bc they have moves fast enough to blow it up.

Cutscene Calibur 6

Played a E ranked clown Raphael who would frame trap and then donreversal edge the whole match

Whoever said this the most balanced fighting game is smoking dust

If that were true I would see more of a variety of the fighters I face


As of right now all I’m really playing is Nightmare, Ivy, Siegfried

I played a tira that did the same thing, then I started stepping the RE and they completely crumbled.

Ivy Nightmare and Sieg have always gotten play in every version no matter how good or bad they are. They are just popular characters

Also imo E ranked is the true rank of skill because its where all the people that are good with there gimmick or one trick sit.

Game needs tweaking

I don’t take it as serious as tekken and I can tell by how you rank up it’s not meant to be taken so serious either

Just something for me to learn and to have fun with , I just hope it doesn’t die out

Made it to F1 last night and I will continue my journey as the Witcher
