Great, that'll come in handy for beginners.

Hopefully EH will have the move section up soon.

Wow this game is f-in complex. I am confused. I pity all the casual players for not having access to proper tutorials within the game to actually understand and learn how to play ,.... *hint* *hint*

The same goes for almost every fighting game though.

@4 CS2 was a FREE balance patch if you had CS1.... Everyone is making it sound like you had to pay for it for some reason...

This game has nice complexity to it, I think that's one of the reasons why I enjoy it so much.

I definitely enjoyed the time I spent with BB:CT, but I fell out of playing it due to life obligations. Definately seems like a good time to get back into it.

Taokaka!

Man, my BB days were good...Raped with Tager in CT to CS2 with dem tech traps, yomi collider and GADGETO FINGAH RC setups. But alas, I had to move on to other things.

@5

The game has a proper tutorial that teaches you how to play the game's engine...along with how to mix up and such. It's pretty damn good with teaching you the basics and how to combo and defend. It also has individual character strategy tutorials along with actual viable challenge combos.

Sounds awesome... too bad I already play SSF4 and I really just don't have the time to learn a new game for the next few years I guess ... it's too much work and I don't have the time anymore ...

WOO damn wish i had the money. Anyone know how long they gonna support CS and blazblue got a pretty good tutorial for basics. i just ran off of that and the challenge combos to get pretty damn good. Makoto/Hakumen wish there was team play.

Why is BB not included in this year's EVO? It is such a complex and challenging game and will make a tournament viewing very interesting.
