Honestly, as cool as broken character look backs are, I think the best evolution of this idea is just to have top players and yourself discuss various meta's that they had to play in comp FG's, even if nothing was super broken, it's always really cool hearing what top players thought of certain characters in certain periods of their game, what annoyed them, what top tiers they ACTUALLY LIKED (it's always awesome when a top player actually admits that a meta character is fine/cool.) and how they thought the meta turned out long term. I'd love to hear how games SC6 or +R evolved their metas over the years, since I feel like you never hear about how those games changed and grew over time. Keep up the good work dude, content's awesome as always.
I'd love to see a video on Brawl Meta Knight, because it really is interesting to see just how overcentralizing he is. Every one of his moves has some element of BS and is at the top of their respective categories. A Leroy retrospective would also be hella fun to watch.
Funny how she went from broken to underappriciated in Central Fiction. She is acually a really fun and well balanced character in that game, well beside the occasional 10k Golden Tager combo
I think it's also important to note that some crazy person found an infinite blockstring into unblockable setup just before she was nerfed, so that's quite funny in the grand scheme of things.
Just bought Central Fiction on sale a couple days ago and ended up picking Kokonoe because she reminded me of Baiken, and now CZcams recommends me this video lmao
At this point, the closest you'll get to experiencing Kokonoe at full power is playing Unlimited Kokonoe in CPE. Though of course, there are mods in CF that alter her gameplay and allow you to play Unlimited Kokonoe in CF too, but that's mods, and not how she was prior to CP 1.1
People were scared of her like they're scared of grapplers when they get... Well anything. I swear if a Grappler is given ANYTHING people rush to call them broken. Even if they get a new outfit.
ah, BlazBlue Central Fiction, a game that is arguably just as complex as "Guilty Gear XRD Revelator," with the game like Revelator having legacy skill, meaning if you haven't stuck with the game since the original back in 2008 you have a MASSIVE hill to climb in learning frame data for each character's normals, gatlings, and overall mobility options that can be used on offense and neutral. Then there are the game's plentiful system mechanics, such as having a half a dozen options on defense that you need to master such as having four ways to block based on specific scenarios for example, and the game having a multitude of wake up options with each having a specific use, and that's not even going into the Drive mechanic, which is a unique action for each character, which there are OVER 35 of, which MOST of the cast plays VASTLY DIFFERENT from each other. Mainline BlazBlue games were HUGE in japan, with it being popular in many Japanese arcades, and as Obama stated in a podcast with Blasted Salami that the series had at one point been up there even with the almighty Tekken in terms of popularity. With many veterans like Dogura ( who is one of the best players in Guilty Gear who uses Slayer) and Fenrich ( who is arguably the best BB player, and currently one the best in DBFZ) representing the series for a long time . Sadly, The series just never took off over here in the west. However, the lack of popularity nationwide doesn't equate to the game's quality.The fact that is arguably the most unique AND complex 2D fighter on the market, but isn't talked about hardly at all in the west was always baffling to me. Especially when I read comments, and watch videos of people in the FGC complaining about how boring fighting games have gotten recently, or how easy it has become and yet will REFUSE to give the game a try. Thankfully, that seems to be changing, for instance Lord Knight, a tournament player who plays a variety of different fighting games made a fighting game tier list and put "BlazBlue Central Fiction" near the top, as well as popular Guilty Gear content creators like Obama saying on blasted salami's podcast that "BlazBlue Central Fiction" is arguably just as hard as Guilty Gear Xrd. Even Punk, arguably one of the BEST players in Street Fighter 5 said that BlazBlue was one of his favorite fighting game series. It's also worth noting that balance wise BBCF is in a much better spot than BBCP in terms of balance, since MANY pro players think the majority of the cast is at least tournament viable with a few exceptions ( with those exceptions commonly being pointed to Izanami and Arakune). For those who want to see high level game play in order to get a grasp of how hype this game can potentially be for you, I'd recommend a video titled "BlazBlue: Chrono Phantasma Grand Finals - Evo 2014" on youtube, and while the game represented there is not Central Fiction, I think it works, since Central Fiction is more of an evolution of Chrono Phantasma any way. Other channel's include "Burst Recap" and "Jourdal" for more high level Japanese play. Finally, "BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle" and mainline BlazBlue games are two SEPARATE things all together, with "BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle" having it's own set of rules with the system mechanics, and SIMPLIFYING ALL of the characters. It's for these reasons that you can't approach "BlazBlue Central Fiction" in the same way that you would "BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle".
Community for CF is still active, even holding regular online tournaments. I'd recommend downloading the improvement mod as well to remove region lock.
She was at her height at around 2014 but has since been brought back to earth. Blazblue is a high power game tho, so most folks in the cast have some juice to even the odds now.
What other broken characters should we cover in the future?
GBVS Launch Belial. I need people to understand my deep seated hatred for that character lmfao.

@@AntanovOCEFGC Not a bad idea!
@@ShibuNub3305 I was looking into MK a looong time ago, so maybe it's time to look at my notes again.
“Kokonoe is officially banned from Chicago” sounds so funny lol
Funny how she went from broken to underappriciated in Central Fiction. She is acually a really fun and well balanced character in that game, well beside the occasional 10k Golden Tager combo
I always thought she looked rad and wanted to try her, but I still have trauma from watching so many of her opponents explode in the past
Love the lordknight interview!
Thank you!

Welcome to the fold
She also broke my willpower and turned me into a furry.
And another one falls to the mad scientist
At least you aren't her mom
My friend also fell for her. She even says he wants her to be his wife and love happily together
Makoto Nanaya almost broke me when I first got into BlazBlue.
Not even furry though
What a funny character. I only wish I could've experienced CP1.0 in all of her glory but CF2 Koko is still really fun.
At this point, the closest you'll get to experiencing Kokonoe at full power is playing Unlimited Kokonoe in CPE. Though of course, there are mods in CF that alter her gameplay and allow you to play Unlimited Kokonoe in CF too, but that's mods, and not how she was prior to CP 1.1
She broke my heart and rebuilt it to love only her. I regret nothing I love my wife.
LoadKnight is the man.
Wasnt like the first first blazblue game just all nu13 players
We don't talk about those times (but maybe I will in the future).
@@Holdbacktoblock cant wait for you to highlight 240p japan arcade videos (at least thats how i always saw the era lol)
nah it was a trifecta of broken characters of Nu/Arakune/Rachel and also Carl. Nu was just the easiest for low/mid level play.
People were scared of her like they're scared of grapplers when they get... Well anything. I swear if a Grappler is given ANYTHING people rush to call them broken. Even if they get a new outfit.
Zangief got a new hat? Busted.
Ty for the video. Kokonoe is a sick ass character.
The concept of the orb having a hotbox is such a good but unfair idea considering the range
0:54 laissez faire 💀
Just popping in to say, i called her "Brokenoae"

Man, I miss Blazblue. Haven’t played in yearssss.

The rollback is fantastic. Play that shit
Love your content!
7:20 Is that a baby Jiyuna? His hair was massive
It is!
Hehe boyyyyyyyyy, koko is honest and always will be 😼
I take it LordKnight didn't get a final look at the script that called him a "Kokonoe enjoyer."
If you are a professional fg player you have no business playing only one character
Snake Eyez: Hold my beer
I, too, am a Kokonoe enjoyer.
Let's play some Merfight sometime. I think you'd like it
Start a podcast!
Ah yes, Blazblue's Dizzy.
Blazblue Dizzy is actually Mu-12 or Nine.
this corny but cool and well made keep it up !
legal esse documentario
👍👍👍
What I can't get over is the fact that she has a move where she rides a SCOOTER of all things at her opponent! 😂😅
Is her dash.
Do one on Baiken in SS7 girl.not even playing the same game 😂
I played her during the rollback test and laughed out loud by her aresenal. May look into this more!
I think kokonoe is the most broken character in a none Kusoge fighing game.
She's def up there!
Someone was trying to get me to play BlazBlue....then this gets uploaded. If players are doing things like this, I think I'll pass.
This happened in a older title (and got patched), but in the last game (CentralFiction) she is a normal character, they balanced her well
She was at her height at around 2014 but has since been brought back to earth. Blazblue is a high power game tho, so most folks in the cast have some juice to even the odds now.
Ah, don't mind it.
There's still characters like Lambda, Nu, Es, Carl, Arakune, Naoto, Izanami that are op in the CF :D
It's absolutely crazy how in this day and age people were considering banning Labcoat-21. Today's kids, I swear 😂
