I couldn't give you a specific number at the moment but it definitely feels better... Further the fact that B, B is NCC also means that CH B by itself give you good advantage.
Adding this to my list of stuff to test at Evo :-)

Re: 2nd hit of B, B... It is unsafe, but with push back so I really don't think many characters will be able to do anything about it (famous last words). And in my testing I don't recall it being stab punishable. The biggest danger is getting the 2nd hit stepped imo.
I don't know if 66B has a...
Actually our friends from Brazil have found the answer for us... It does combo on normal hit (whoops that was counter hit... I'm a clown), as seen here:

P.S. I also think B, B is pretty good... it will have it's downsides (2nd hit steppable) but plenty of upsides (a ring out, wall...
I *think* it will... I actually don't know for sure because I didn't realize that it hit grounded until the last day of CEO.
I was only using it as an ender in this combo:
CH B6 -> a:(B) -> SBH K
Also, I agree that a:B will be useful as a mid punisher where 3B is too slow. As an aside 3B...
I appreciate the warm welcome sir... Looking forward to going down there and training with you guys. We will definitely take you up on that offer.
There was already a Soul Calibur house though so yours won't be the first... It was called the House of Goons. ;-)

Oh crap! That's a B6 extension in soul charge! I wish I would have known about that. And the 2nd hit looks like a break attack. Wow Sieg soul charge looking kinda dangerous.
Edit: and thanks for the warm welcome back. Looking forward to a good run.

Like the @Linkrkc did, I took a few notes and I thought I'd share them along with the move list. I think I'll do the notes first, then combos, then move list, in that order.
General Notes:
Sieg's standing B is his old B6; New B6 is a mid hilt strike that crumble stuns on CH for a combo (new B6...
If I were in town... I would play... And I would win... Even though I'm pretty much done w/ competitive gaming. :-(
Alas, I'm in Alabama for this week though so I'll miss it.
In any case, I'll be in Vegas for my last Evo in a few weeks... So out there we can play for whatever money was won at...
I doubt anyone will see this... but I'm in Birmingham for this week, and I'm free on Thursday if anyone wants to get games in.
Shoot me a PM if anyone is around.
