I remember hearing people who played her thought her as another pretty good rush down character, and a lot of people left Rachel for her. I may tried her as my sub when the time come, but I still waiting for anything better from Rachel.

Btw, did they ever change any gameplay balancing after releasing a game since the first GG? I wonder is it possible to patch the arcade?

And also I like BB characters a lot, to be honest I like Rachel and Noel more than my fav GG characters. It's just great they became bottom tier in CS... |

Noel is only barely bottom tier, though. She's still viable, it's just a lot of her old combos and options were taken out and the new stuff they added for her are unsafe, she could easily jump right back up if people got used to her new playstyle though. Rachel however is worse than CT Tager.

Rachel is still playable, at least there are still something left for her
http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9012790 It's just the pole usage is so crucial now that she has to depend on it a lot. And the wind recovery time is not funny either.

I'll be laughing my ass off if somebody discover a bug or broken and completely annoying way to play her and she'll become top tier again. This whole Rachel UFO until time out thing may be the only way to play her competitively now. But it's hell boring and stupid.
Anyways I heard there was some kind of revision in GG arcades after Arc screwed up in the past once. GG XX Blue and Red versions or something like that. After this epic failure with Rachel maybe they will decide to do it again. |

Sounds like the failed in rebalancing.. hope the Capcom team avoid doing the same with Super Street Fighter 4.. bit of a joke that Blazblu is so unbalanced with such a small roster and SF4 (sagats nowhere near as bad as the top 3 in BB) and T6 are better balanced.

SF4 isn't really "that" similar to previous street fighters... as far as balancing goes it's on a brand new slate.. it's not like it's Super Turbo updated into 3d and the majority of the new cast is balanced rather well. It's actually balanced a lot better than the last major Street Fighter game in SF3 3rd Strike.. a lot better... no 8-2 matchups in this one...
Anyway BlazBlu Version 2 really should've been better... from what I'm reading it's Blazblue Version 1 balancing with the names switched around. Bang, Litchi and Tao are low tier? Well let's make them top tier! That sort of thing.. it's like World of Warcraft balancing.. instead of trying to put characters as close as possible.. it's more a "let's give these characters top position in this edition" type deal. |

SF4 still has plenty of 7-3 match ups though... while not as bad as the SF3 ones it's still painfully obvious in certain fights. Need to wait for SSF4 to see if capcoms balancing is any better.
i was hoping for a better job for the character edits as from what I've seen it's a meh job so far but until the games been out for a bit there's no use whining about tiers because as noted all you need it a 'clap loop' type combo for someone to discover to make a character go from worst to near top of the list again.

Kro_ a Rachel player from dustloop gave a nice overview of how things currently stand at the moment with tier. Looks pretty balanced to me, remember it's still early.

I'll probably get to try Rachel in a few days time when it arrives in Singapore.
But the entire fanbase has already given up hope on her, even the Japanese themselves can't do anything to save her. Its the worst nerfing I've ever seen, a new nerf record by Arcsys, at least Dizzy and Johnny didn't had to win matches by time outs. Seeing how Litchi's insane loops and Taokaka's no guage taunt combos that does nearly 7000 damage, I think that the game isn't balanced at all, its probably worst than BBCT.

someone who played the game a good bit in texas said on DL that the game felt incomplete or was still a beta. I can actually see that from videos posted, since it definitely feels like something is missing from the game that was there in CT. i have yet to see a 7k meterless in this game though.
also, it pains me so much to see Nu struggle to break 3k damage. pretty much the highest i've seen from her is a 3k+ 50% meter and a 4k 100% meter, which is absolutely pathetic.

I don't know about Litchi's loops, but Tao's taunt apparently isn't viable in a serious match so, it doesn't matter. I heard people played CS say that it's plenty balanced now. Bang and Litchi while being are nowhere the rape Nu, Arakure and Rachel could do in CT, and there has been good Rachels coming out lately and winning matchs.
Nu vs. Hakumen, or Tager for example was just plain unfair and not any fun in CT. |
