    Fight a good Ivy and you'll see she's pretty busted.

    The Ivy throw is annoying, but keep in mind that it has a fixed range and and is easily baited out.

    Move the soul meter to the bottom of the screen and make it bigger.

    After all of that 2B vs Geralt arguing in the thread of old, glad to see we turned out with both.

    Raphael Tech - or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Pokes

    AG > K can be done lightning fast that you should be able to hit someone who is turtling out prep now. On larger opponents don't bother going for that just frame, just instantly follow up with 4A+B for some nice damage. Speaking of AG > K, opponents who like to air control can be trapped with...

    OK guys please need help with New Raph.

    This was a well-thought out response. A lot better than saying "shut up you're wrong". I don't use AA in most cases, if someone is close enough to be hit with A, then they're close enough to get hit with 6B, leaving the option of prep if I want it. As far as Raphael in this game versus Raphael...

    When the data is out and you finally leave training mode, you'll see I was right.

    Prep IS good now, but at the cost of his kit in other places. I've gone into explicit details as to why I think he's weak in the current game amd no one is listening. For the record, I do very well with Raph (currently no. 5 Raph on steam), I'm quite in tune with him.

    Why are people using fucking training mode combos to say Raphael is good? Try doing that in a match. Your throw will be broken, your follow up will be step-countered. When you enter Prep, you will be tech-crouched and stunned., if not stepped at punished. Raphael is bad in this game. His...

    PS, I've had very little issue punching through people's RE attempts by brute-forcing rapid B attacks out of prep.

    At what juncture did I indicate having any trouble with him? I beat about 80-90% of the ones I encounter. But that doesn't make him not baby's first fighting game character. Very forgiving character with a ton of built in assists for new players.

    Definitely my search settings, and nothing to do with his massive damage output and low skill requirement.

    SoulCalibur 6? More like Nightmare Online.

    First of all, there's no need to be shitty. So what if he might be ESL, how many languages do you speak? Second of all, AA is a bad move. The range of the first hit is dismal, and is incredibly steppable. 6B is a far superior choice in close quarters, simply because its speed. Raph's *only*...

    Soul Calibur VI: General discussion

    He won't be able to tell you because he doesn't know. He'd rather tell you that you're simply wrong and don't know what you're talking about without making any kind of technical elaboration. Which is why I'd like to play a few matches with him to see how he plays and if he has anything...
