Blazblue Continuum Shift: Jin vs Hazama

[yattrich49w]

This is one "tricky" video. =p

[pacquiaovsmarquezIV]

Your video is popular on Monrovia

[TheElephant2009]

I plan on buying this game, who is a good starter character?

[Tangogamer45]

@TheElephant2009 Well, in Blazblue, every playable character has their own unique moves and moveset, no copy of each other (ahem yes street fighter i'm talking to you). But I've been playing Blazblue long enough to catch wind of all of the characters' movesets, like if you want a character with good offense with decent defense, go with Ragna. Or if you fancy a very good offense and defense but slow mobility (unless you get the unlimited version) character, you would have Iron Tager. Or if

[Tangogamer45]

@TheElephant2009 (CONTINUED) you like becoming a fast mover with mediocre attack and defense, you would like Taokaka. But when I first got the game, I first went to practice and done some of the tutorials and experimented with each character, picking out Ragna in the end. But, like I said each character is unique, with their moves, appearance, etc. But I highly recommend Blazblue over Street Fighter, because BB is easier to get to the controls and specials and easier to pick up and play.

[Tangogamer45]

@TheElephant2009 But whatever character you experiment and play with, it's up to you. I just like playing Ragna.

[Tangogamer45]

@TheElephant2009 Sorry for the long lecture. Hope you understand. :)

[CristalBlueRose]

awesome ending!

[Uhurus1]

Looks like an ode to the Michael jackson game: Moonwalker! Tommorow i have it.

[Tokorai]

3:19 dayum. Full life to near death in a matter of seconds.

[TheNoelVermillion]

Smooth Criminal Hazama

[witnesszer0]

sweet i need to get this i am curently playing blazblue  clamity trigger on pc

[apanst]

that combo at 2:41 was awesome

could it be done in ct?

[saxcritix]

@apanst yup

[NairB866]

1:27 jin just got kicked in the ballz o.O

[Mosquitox216]

NEEDS MOAR ICECAR :P

[Nutsyism]

Go Hazama! Man he's cool. But he's so hard to use. I've been trying to get better with him.

[BossWarrior06]

daamn the juggling system in this game is ridiculous, n i thought MVC2 was wild, your not even safe on the ground 2:42

[SonicBadGuy]

Mizuchi Rekkazan

[kebbey]

soooooooooooo cloooooooooose

[yamifalcon]

absolutely beautiful match between two great players. Haven't got my hands on continuum shift yet but looks as if hazzama is a beast if he catches you in the air.

[tidus1336]

the last round was epic i loved every moment of it especialy cause of the astrl finish

[mannymax]

i dont know if i should get this game. it looks interesting but i never heard of this game before

[evi1d33d]

@mannymax The only reason Street Fighter is more popular is because everyone heard of street fighter and not blazblue. But to me blazblue is 5x more fun than street fighter.

[Vectic]

@evi1d33d street fighters more popular because its been arund for years and was the first of its kind. And is always doing soething new that everyones copied. But I like BBCS better but I always pay respect to the originator strret fighter lol

[JapzLapeno]

@mannymax BlazBlue didn't get all the marketing hype that Street Fighter, Mortal Combat, Tekken, or Capcom VS Whatever get, but i find it to be AT LEAST as fun as any 'name brand' fighting game. It's fast-paced, very energetic, and fun to even just sit and watch while others play. On the console versions, the controls are mapped so that some special moves take one button press or one flick of the right stick, so people without the fighting game gene can still enjoy without too much suffering.

[ladiesman4009]

a guilty gear blazblue crossover would have been amazing

[OkamiKaZuki]

Nice matches i need to practice i suck lol

suscribed

[cmysharingan]

Are astrals easier to pull off now? It seems people are attempting them more, at least in the videos I have been seeing

[MadaxeMunkeee]

Between CT and CS, they are easier for some characters because arcsys changed the commands for some characters. But just based on gameplay and combo potential, I doubt they've changed.

[Kjarrigan1]

Between those two, it looks like an MegaMan BossBattle ... with all the evases an stuff. ^.^

Very difficul game i guess?!

[xVIxVideos]

Hazama seems somewhat reliant on them snakes to move him cross the stage : |

[komix28]

3:19 hazama's like GET ME DOWN FROM HERE!!!!

[Itsnameisgundam]

is it just me? or did this make me smile instantly?

xPP

but seriously. I'm so ready for the console version. I need a ps3 sooo bad

[takaru15]

that was a sexy fight kudos to both players

[TailsFox11]

Hazama = New Michael Jackson 0.o Holy shit! It would be epic if he could throw his hat :D

[kingburglekutt]

I'm liking Hazama's zoning options.

[zerosquadron1]

The face of Gin from Bleach and the smooth criminal moves as Michael Jackson.

[Slycooper14]

@zerosquadron1 he soo looks like fox-face when he smiles but it's awesome and he makes it look good like when sebastian smiles~ i like his green hair! and kusagiri is awesome too! ice-powers!

[ETHER956]

can't wait 4 the console version

[Iconoclast12100]

I know it's not really a big deal, but I like the announcer in Calamity Trigger better. :(

[cmysharingan]

@Iconoclast12100 Yeah, I totally agree, but I also heard that along with new character downloads they said that players will have the choice to download 7 different announcer voices (think the number is seven i'm not sure about that) for a fee of course =_=

[SHJunkie89]

Street Fighter fails in comparison to Blazblue. its faster and it has GATLING'S!!!! No time the square button right to chain two attack together. Fuck that. Street Fighter 4 should be dubbed "Turtle Fighter 4"

If any street fighter game should be worth praise its Street Fighter 3 Third Strike

[Lucastic]

@SHJunkie89

Third Strike? That's exactly what I've been saying. Whose idea was it to literally go back in time and bring back an older version's (SF2) style to the newest sequel? They went back to the fire ball spamming and turtling era.

[Wesker012]

Street Fighter... No comment.

[Kilania94]

Holy shit at 0:45. Epic kick timing before the glorious ice sword hit. XD I beat someone with Jin without using a single ice attack. No loops either. Try it. ;P On CT.

[desertgod]

although I was rroting for hazama the fight was still pretty sweet, also there was less ice then I expected, I like this Jin!

[jdbabyv3]

Hazama looks sooo cool!! cant wait to try him

[Coballes19]

Nice Finish

[flarekid10]

To Jin held his own, is hazama hard to us?

[horo30]

Owned.

And yeah kinda.

But then again its fairly easy to land jins AF.

Grab and its over. *or freeze* But grab ensures victory By AF.

But this match was fresh.

Some nice new gameplay.

[ClutchModeEngaged]

Hazama looks awesome!

[darklliter]

4:26

that's the first time i've seen Hazama's air grab...

cool!

[darkmirage0]

The new announcer has a suck voice. They could have stuck with the old one.

[horo30]

@darkmirage0 They needed a new one.

But this new intro fits CS's style. Calm down.

[Kyubi888Naruto]

Hazama looks like Michael Jackson...

[raiden6662o]

woooaaaahhhhhh nice ending!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i really hate hazama... and jin rulz!!!!!!!

[warl94]

no surprise, Dennou is one of the best jin players

[knakolo]

What the hell did Hazama say at 3:55 .

[kamijo21]

i think this game fuckin owns SF 4..

[Jotora]

This game is a pure spectacle. Love it.

[ArkradosKeiresk]

Hey, CrimsonMoonM, the inputs for Astral Finishes changed, and you can do it on the last round you need to win rather than the last overall round. For instance, I believe Jin's AF changed from a 720 to HCB, F

[Papsmore412]

Hazama was pretty fucking nuts. It's a shame that he and Tsubaki are the only new characters added (at least they're beasts).

[zero163rd]

Two things....

1. Hazama looks like an awesome character and his combo's are sick!

2. The whole battle was totally Epic!

[swordlink93]

nice ending

[Onshki]

hazama looks so goddamn fun to play.

[desertedisle]

no this game isnt better then street fighter.

[vegeta353658]

@desertedisle That's your opinion.

[NeutroNova]

Man that was one badass combo pulled of by haz there.

[ObanKing46]

Can't wait until June 20th.ToT

[ShakinJamacian]

Wow, I'm still impressed that sequels to fighting games still reuse assets from older games :P

Shouldn't that make the game a harder sell to casual players? I mean, it looks very similar to the first game, like Super Street Fighter IV does with its prequel.

[FridayKnight123]

.... I jizzed my pants

[SonicBadGuy]

BlazBlue Rocks!!!!

BureiBuru ^^ Japanase XD

[BaconBall8]

Badass finish. Great playing on both fighters!

[HellFire2034]

umm im kinda new to fighter games is this like most 2d fighter games that u have to break ur fingers in order to do some cool movers or specials?

[CrimsonMoonM]

This plays like any 2D fighter out there right now as far as move commands are concerned, so i guess so. If you just start, you'll get the hang of the moves fairly quickly though.

[HellFire2034]

@CrimsonMoonM

but in ur opinion is this game better then street fighter?

[CrimsonMoonM]

which one? 4?

if so, then yes, i do.

[HellFire2034]

@CrimsonMoonM

then i think i might buy the older part of blazblue

[horo30]

@CrimsonMoonM Shit, if it keeps going the way it is.. It will be considered better then the whole series put together.

Still SF3 had a great system.

Hmm this jin looks very fresh. Excellent.

But screw street fighter, that shit is old.

Make way for the new era dogz. Stop living in the past.

Or are you 30 and up? LOL.

[LimitMyPain]

@HellFire2034

I had to say this, but this game probably beats all Street Fighters. It takes a lot more skill to play this game in my opinion. Then again, without Street Fighter we wouldn't have the games we do today like Guilty Gear and BlazBlue. ><

[TheGreatReptar]

@LimitMyPain Without Street Fighter 2 we wouldn't have GG or BB. Street Fighter 4 is just...eh...Execution wise, SF4 is takes more skill, but Blazblue definitely has more game mechanics that you have to use properly (hell, Blazblue essentially has parrying with instant blocking), so in that regard Blazblue is more advanced and has a deeper engine.

Then there's Guilty Gear, which has really difficult execution, and just as deep of a game engine as Blazblue...

[jordan8224611]

@HellFire2034 i like this game batter then SSF4 but i do thank that SSF4 is a batter game then this 

[horo30]

@CrimsonMoonM That was a dumb ass question.

What a noob.

[horo30]

@HellFire2034 No.

You only break your fingers if you suck at using them.

LOL.

[pat4luigi13]

@HellFire2034 This game will have a Beginner and a Tutorial Mode. So, you're good.

[Slycooper14]

@HellFire2034 nice astral finish! jin used deep freeze! it's super-effective!

[princeofgaia]

Geat match :)

[ibankia]

who ever is using hazama , hes a fcking maniac . lol never seem anyone does that much combo and landing them so well.

[Flama99]

Jin's astral finish is a lot easier to pull off in this game so I guess that may be why. Dennou seems to do it quite a bit.

[Sannin86]

really good match nice finish

[kman618]

Damn, nice double distortion combo from Hazama. O_o;

[SkyShinigami]

that is cheep that hazuma can juggel you in the air like that

however, bad ass match O.O

[Twilii3]

I like how both players tried to change up their combos every now and then, seen so many people do the same ones over and over again.

[SenshuRysakami]

@Twilii3 honestly with how good these players are, do you think it would have went well for them if either and just tried one combo set up? It would have become very one-sided very quickly.

[prime618]

I swear if i didn't know better i would've thought hazama was michael jackson

[Qjackful]

@prime618 I KNOW!!! RIGHT?!?!?

[busterwolf97]

@prime618 Good, so I wasn't the only one who thought Hazama's Distortion finish would be a Moonwalk.

[Jovanniboxer]

great jin player.

[kwinkers]

Omg, astral finish. HOT.  <3

[kman618]

Hehe, don't you mean COLD? ^_^

[arhilles]

nice combo at 1:55

was that 2D, 6B, rapid C, 6C, 214C?

[hkgy]

so all jin gets is more fluid fighting and lik 1 johnny slash in the air and being able to project 2 ice shards at the same tym and i think an extra kick attak in the ground ....... wow how cheap lol they should make this a 20 dollar expansion lol

[ShadeKazin]

Honestly, another reason is a lot of the videos people would put would be from tournements and such. Due to the fact that only Rachel, Ragna, and Nu had there astral's on the original arcade version, they were the only three characters allowed to use them in tournements (either because it was considered canon or something).

However, the growing heat gauge also aids in the ability to use them. Granted Haku-men has always had that as a benefi, just never the option.

[JapanguyGM2500]

They do.....back in Ct you didn't get heat as easily, plus the as Chawonka said the requirements arn't as strict and risky.

I like it this way, now you can actually pull them off in the game and you look badass at the same time.

[Chawonka]

Plus, apparently (after having seen the video) Jin's astral is EXTREMELY easy to combo into from a mere grab.

[Calm101]

i do that all the time in calamity trigger as well <_<

[Chawonka]

You mean the throw / astral combo? I was just pointing out the level of ease in this video specifically. I won't touch Jin even in training mode, so I wouldn't know he could do that in CT as well.

[kman618]

Yeah but his is easily one of the hardest to land without a grab or anything, seeing as all you have to do to dodge it is jump at the right time.

[Chawonka]

It's probably because they changed it so only YOU have to win one more round in order to execute it. Before, it was way too risky because it had to be the last match overall. Also, as a side note, I hate it when people flat out say who wins in the comments... Makes it almost pointless to watch the video.

[DarkAndersonEX]

Huazzah! Jin win(s)!
