Nailing people with the anti air chain is way too satisfying for me not to throw it out randomly and in incredibly unsafe spots

In the arcade version there are 2 layouts to choose from.

Type A:

Type B:

I prefer Type B and I think most people do too.

same; I actually switched a couple weeks ago. It seriously broke my brain at first but I think I'm used to it now. Gatlings seem more natural, for one.

As far as I'm concerned I hope Bridget becomes playable soon, I have no actual reason beyond a desire for deadly Yo-Yos. I'd still probably just play May/Slayer/Baiken but would be happy to know Deadly Yo-Yos existed.

Dumb question, but what's the answer to Kum's palm strike super? I feel like I used to know this but I forget cause I barely play Kum's. Super it, throw it, anything else? If you hold block wouldn't they just charge it until it's unblockable? I feel like there's gotta be a way around that but I'm not sure what.

Hold back until you see the glow on the robot's abs change which is the tell for the strike about to become unblockable. Backdash then.

What's a good knockdown combo ender for baiken, hitting j.S D (and the air dash cancelling double up if I can pull it off) is good damage off all her stuff that launches but it doesn't knockdown. Also the IAD tatami is a tricky motion but it's pretty rad to just speed off the ground with a mat right when you land

Gwyrgyn Blood

Mostly see people ending combos with 5H into the dash -> uppercut which is pretty reliable.
So like for a super simple example corner combo do c.S 2D 236K, j.S j.D, Air Dash j.S j.D |> 5H 63214K~P

You gotta adjust the timing after the air dash or vary up the number of hits in the combo based on weight and poo poo like that. If the 5H or the dash upper wiffs because you were too far away, try either doing the j.S later, or you can do j.P j.S j.D instead.

I think there's issues with lightweight characters and long combos though so, not really sure what the best answer is there.

Ah didn't know the uppercut reached after 5H, thank you.

Adding to the knockdown discussion, 5H>Uppercut is always too high for some light chars to get a knd, and also won't work as combo filler for them. You need to do raw uppercut slash after the second j.d to keep them low enough to hit the ground. Also for big and heavy chars you can do j.psd on the air dash part to pop them higher so your ender will work.

Is there a master list anywhere of what exactly the Revelator 2 upgrade has in it? I'm extremely new to the game, so I'm not sure if two new characters I'm probably not good enough to bother with yet justifies the twenty dollar asking price. If there's more, though, I'd consider it.

I just picked up the Steam Rev2 upgrade. I didn't even realize that Rev2 got the full lobby system that the PS4 version has! With this option, do most people hang out in the regional lobbies, or do they still prefer the player lounges? On PC Rev1 at least, most of the player lounges were regional anyway so it seems like those would not be necessary anymore.
