just bought it again thanks to the 20 dollar eb sale and picked up another stick as well. Second time owning this. I suck at it. I suck as bad as the live action movie. I suck playing alone and I suck online. Anyone want to buy the game and stick of me? 100 shipped to your door.

This games drives me crazy. I'm still only winning a little over 50% on championship, and I play constantly (200+ hours logged X_x )....it's the only game I play. I'm addicted, and I suck, and it sucks. I want to stop playing this game, but cannot.

I rarely play it now. If I played more often I would eventually get myself up to pro status. I think I'm more or less semi-pro status. I still win about 80%+ of my matches. If I didn't play so aggressive I'd probably win them all, but I can't help but get bored of playing the waiting game on alot of people being too defensive so end up going in and attacking. That's my biggest flaw.

So I went back to this game yesterday to play some Championship mode after 2 weeks of BlazBlue. Won two G1 Championships without any losing in between, even got trash talked by a 59000 GP Sagat. I see nothing has changed ^_^
I'll probably do the same in about 3 or 4 days. I'm not even that good at BlazBlue, but I'm having a ton of fun with it.

Problem is, online comp = not a way to truly see how good you are at the game. I know so many people that say "if I played more" and "I almost never lose" that balls out stink at the game.

So true. A lot of people who play online would be super surprised at how different it is than playing people at a tournament, or even playing people casually in a tournament setting. There's a ton of factors to put in.
- People watching the game
- No comfort of your own home
- Sitting next to the person your playing
- More pressure
But it's so much better. You don't have to worry about lag stopping you (unless you're playing on a non-calibrated HD TV >_> ) And it's a much better experience overall.

Yep, and lag tricks don't work either. Biggest problem when I play online against someone = I can't space properly. My poking depends on instantly recognizing other peoples moves to counter on retraction/reaction, but it's impossible to do that online, even on a local connection regardless of game...a lot of my game is reaction based, which is why online is always a completely different style that I have to utilize.
