Melty Blood Actress Again Tutorial - Moon Styles 

Damn well after quarantine it's good to have a fighting game that supports rollback netcode

So lemme see if I have this right: C-Moon: Emphasis on open options H-Moon: Emphasis on defense F-Moon: Emphasis on power

Crescent Moon Style = KOF '97's Advanced Mode Similarities: 1. 100% Magic Circuit = 1 POW Meter stock (maximum is 300%/3 POW Meter stocks) 2. Able to activate Heat with at least 100% Magic Circuit = Able to activate MAX with at least 1 POW Meter stock 3. Able to perform Arc Drives during Heat = Able to do Desperation Moves in MAX 4. Blocking moves cost you your Guard Bar in both games. 5. Empty Guard Bar = Instant Guard Crush 6. Dodging attacks = Emergency Evasion 7. Shield Bunkers = Guard Cancel Blowback Attacks Differences: 1. 300% Magic Circuit and you go MAX in this game. 3 POW Meter Stocks does not put you into MAX in KOF '97, but does so in SVC Chaos 2. 300% Magic Circuit and you can enter Blood Heat in this game. 3 POW Meter Stocks still puts you into MAX in KOF '97 3. Able to do Another Arc Drives during Blood Heat in this game. Only able to do Super Desperation Moves with 2 POW Meter stocks in KOF '97 4. Able to do Reverse Beats in this game. Unable to do Reverse Beats in KOF '97 5. After MAX, you are left with 200% Magic Circuit only in this game. 6. Doing an Arc Drive in MAX leaves you with 100% Magic Circuit in this game. Doing a DM just takes away one POW Meter stock in KOF '97 (A DM with 3 POW Meter Stocks leaves you with 2). 7. After Blood Heat, you are left with an empty Magic Circuit only in this game 8. Able to do Circuit Sparks with 300% Magic Circuit in this game. No Circuit Spark Mechanic in KOF '97, only Guard Cancel Blowback Attack which does not cost all POW Meters. 9. Cannot block while charging your Guard Bar in this game. Can still block after a Guard Crush in KOF '97. 10. Heat activation wall-slams an opponent, MAX mode activation does not. 11. Can Circuit Spark in mid-air, cannot do Guard Cancel MAX in mid-air. 12. Shield Bunkers cost 50% Magic Circuit, Guard Cancel Blowback Attacks cost 1 POW Meter 13. Can EX Guard in this game, cannot Just Defend until KOF XIV. 14. Dash forward animation is assigned per character in this game.

How do you expect me to pay attention with that banger on, godmanit, that music slap harder than an aad

This is a pretty good, comprehensive tutorial, and I like it. Can't wait for the next one!

Full Moon Style = KOF '97's Extra Mode Similarities: 1. Unable to Heat with less than 300% Magic Circuit = Unable to activate MAX without full POW Meter 2. Able to charge Magic Circuit anytime = Able to charge POW Meter anytime 3. Initiative Heat = Quick MAX Differences: 1. Unable to dodge in this game. Can still dodge in KOF '97 2. Dash forward animation is assigned per character in this game. All characters can only hop forward in KOF '97 3. No unlimited Arc Drives in this game. Can do unlimited DM in KOF '97 4. Another Arc Drives are accessible anytime in this game. Cannot access SDM until health is low in KOF '97.

Half Moon Style = Mix of KOF XIV's mechanics plus some original mechanics, but most are from Samurai Shodown and Real Bout Fatal Fury Special Similarities: 1. 5A6AA Auto Combo = Rush Combo 2. 100% Magic Circuit = H-Power 3. 200% Magic Circuit = S-Power 4. Auto Heat during MAX = Auto Rage Differences: 1. No Arc Drive on low health in this game. Can do S-Power on low health in RBFFS 2. No Another Arc Drive with MAX Heat and low health in this game. Can do P-Power in RBFFS 3. Auto Spark in this game, no Auto Rage in SS.

The very mechanic that got me into this game

New Melty Blood announced so I'm here

And people say Guilty Gear is complex :O

yes. The only things in general mechanic that was added is that a raw air throw will have a yellow effect and will let you combo after, and air counters will put your oponent in a longer stun animation, letting you make bigger combos after.

Who else watching Bcuz of the hype of the new game

I am not at all new to fighting games, especially air dashers, but very new to Melty Blood so which moon style would you folks recommend as a starter?

Great video, thank you

Reduces a very small amount of blockstun (2F if I recall correctly)

thanks

Thanks for verifying.

@Woodland312 This is similar to Guilty Gears blocking system if not a little easier. EX guard seems similar to Instant Block and also Faultless Defense. OP does EX block reduce blockstun as an Instant Block in GG would?

neat

@meirus Fixed, thanks

I thought Street Fighters was hard but jesus crist Melty Blood is the AP of gaming

Dang the YTber never did the specifics and advanced techniques

what's the name of the song that's playing?

Are shield bunkers not in Current Code?

are these styles the same in Current code actress again?

Lol, this game still doesn't hold a candle to the 20 different meter uses every character has.

man being a huge fan of fighting games i blame myself for all these years.....ive been missing out....from what i learned today cmoon is basically the moon you use when u are skilled enough right?

song?

What about eclipse?

Make a new video

So full moon suck .

Unnecessary complexity.
