Make sure your Tupperware is reasonably strong and thick. Sanwa snap-in push buttons have certain thicknesses that work best, which you should look into (maybe yank the buttons out of a friend's fight stick to see how the buttons look). If the snap-in buttons won't fit, you'll have to use...

The official Hitbox uses 24mm for everything except the Up button.

I think there's an "oops!" combo you can do if you realize you're doing jHK too close to the corner. It was something like stuff into jHK xx Timpani, push them into the corner, then land on them with jLK or jMK. I can't for the life of me remember if it requires a taunt or not

I'm away from my PS3 at the moment, but off-hand you could start with 2LK 2MK 5HP H Extend and go right into 5LP 5MK into air stuff. If you have a taunt available, I like to use 2LK 2MK 5HP ^ jLP jMP jHP xx Timpani, jMK v 2MK 5HP H Extend into stuff. Or I suppose someone who's actually good...

I built myself a custom HitBox-style box not too long ago. With the correct parts, you don't need any soldering at all. Nada. Soldering is important for some of the specialty boards, like LED boards, or if you're going to hack an old controller. Before I bought a PS360+ custom board, I was...

Even with the first-frame change, Diamond Dynamo manages to connect behind Bella for me, although they usually fall out of the last hit. Mike Z mentioned that the frame 1 change was supposed to make it blockable post-flash at longer distances without affecting the way it combos.

This is actually a bit of a nuisance for me with one of Bella's corner combo enders. Anything that ends in xx Dynamo, c.LP/LK (delay) c.MK (delay) f.HP Cerecopter xx Dynamo has a good chance of sending Bella the wrong way if I connect with the part of Cerecopter that pulls Bella into her opponent.

At the moment, I'm using: [Sound Stun Starter] 2MK 5HP j.MP j.HP j.HK (otg) 2LK 5MK j.LP j.LK(3) j.MK 2LP 2MK 5HK H A-Train xx SSJ [Sound Stun Starter] can be L Beat Extend or any Giant Step. Probably not optimal, I can already imagine adding another air loop or... something.

Ah, so what do you guys do for when 214HP sends them over your head?

What I do in those situations is skip M Khat and go straight into H Khat. M Khat adds some distance that you can't afford at max range. It helps a little. Of course, you can't always go right into H Khat because it whiffs up close after s.HP~HP.

This has to be the classiest disclaimer I've seen yet.

Eliza has big, dominating normals and pretty good air mobility, but her buttons are slow and it's hard to get your opponent to block her stuff and start the pressure game. With Eliza / Fukua, I would send out M Shadow or H Drill assist to force a block, and then approach with AD j.LK j.MP if...

I don't know... it's not like you can combo into Anubis, and it seems dangerous to me for Eliza to assume a close-ranged Anubis will land and go for a taunt. Eliza's opponent will just jump Anubis on reaction and swat Eliza in the face.

No problem, @dMags. What's your team composition? I might have more specific tech.

Everyone feels free to Fukua, especially starting out. She's weird to fight in that she has an effective range of half the screen away and over your head. Many players don't even know what tools their characters have to play in that range, and she has a lot of lazy buttons to press that punish...

@alexpi: I haven't tried running Parasoul and Eliza together, yet. Could you elaborate on these cool Throne gimmicks? I can imagine using Throne for zoning, as a string ender, and maybe as a confirm into Egret Charge? That's all theory fighting, though.

I've been running Eliza on PSN Ranked for a while, with good results. Here's what I think: I would put Eliza on point. Her incoming is kind of weak, although not as limited as Parasoul's, and her non-assisted neutral mostly involves jumping around with j.MK and throwing around bodyguards with...

SkullGeorge? Battle for the Bombheart? Bonus character: George XIII from Blazblue.

Cool. I'm most often around Sunday-Wednesday. It's either this or Diablo III with my roomies. EDIT: So I just finished some online trolling where I only used Eliza j.LK/j.MK and Squigly j.LK for a whole match, and... I actually think this might be a fun training exercise to try with someone...

- You can't record replays, yet. Raika tells me that's coming in the next update. - For the Double car, pay attention to her as she disappears. See that puff of smoke? That tells you which way the car's going. - For Double's tag, just block it the way it came from. It got changed in the Eliza...
