Something I like about Blazblue’s 3DS game is the stylish (aka spam buttons to win) mode which really shows you what the series is about. When I played BB1 I was dominated online because I didn’t really see this. But in the 3DS game your combos are chained with special attacks.  This way I can see what chains together so when I get the real game I know what combinations to use.

I stayed up for two and a half hours trying to beat Hazama.

Holy fucking shit what the fuck. Continuum shift tells you right off the bat that the last boss in arcade mode was going to be bullshit when it sticks Lambda (who is basically Nu), the last games bullshit final boss in as a fucking midboss. Nu was hard but she was powerful from afar. Meaning really getting close to her and punishing her didn’t give her much room to attack. But Hazama? Where do I fucking start.

One of his specials is an instant grab that can get you from any location so long as you’re on the ground, even if you’re blocking.

His other special can interrupt virtually anything

He punishes for being in the air and almost all of his moves knock up.

Pile this shit on with a mother fucking all knowing ai that KNOWS EXACTLY WHEN TO GRAB DURING A SPECIAL FUCK THIS FINAL BOSS
