Izayoi is TOP TIER in Blazblue and here's why - Beginner Guide

[@zekiel2533]

Jiyunna I like how you're teaching blazblue by actually jumping into a match and showing the character off in practice. Good stuff

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

On the job training.

[@alexanderpaulsen753]

Keep these little character primers up man they’re really good for people like me getting into BBCF years later where a lot of the info is less accessible than other games

[@agaed7676]

Also check out the dustloop entries for each character. It helps a lot

[@bs.music.kyi9]

This is honestly some of the most helpful content Jiyuna has put out in a while.

[@Borderlines]

I was very apprehensive about playing Blazblue because it seems so complicated. But these videos make me understand these characters so much better and I feel more confident about jumping in.

[@rekkazan]

Hope you enjoy it, BB can be complicated at highest level but playing it casually is also really fun

[@salem2772]

Thank you Jiyuna for always showing us the top tiers lol.

[@midorixiv]

This guide has actually been super helpful for me as a new izayoi player, just focusing on the super basics of "keep them out with fireball/5B and 623b when they jump" has helped a lot more than other guides that go straight into complicated pressure stuff and optimal combos, and who needs complex pressure anyway when at this level the only mix I need is fireball > 214D :>

[@terrysalt]

My favourite character in CF is Amane. I really like the idea of a character centred around chip damage. No idea if he's any good at a competitive level but conceptually, the character design really works for me.

[@bigcurly3881]

I really appreciate this cause I literally just can’t find real yt guides for 70% of the cast only if they’re top tiers or fan favorites

[@babyjoker997]

I’ve been really appreciating the BB vids, helped get me started with it Thanks Jiyuna :)

[@Depiction22]

I always thought Izayoi was hard for a beginner but this guide changed my mind!

[@ns-ze7oe]

なかなかbbcf初心者向けの動画無いから、作ってくれて感謝です！めっちゃ助かる！ この動画参考に頑張ります。Thank you!!!

[@DSKBR556]

Please keep the BB content coming its so much more fun watching you talk about a game you're heavily invested into and know a ton about. Big ups from me, I might actually hop into practice with izayoi just to have fun.

[@mortals94]

Thank you for all the Blazblue videos 😭

[@KeikoXTC]

Keep this kind of short character tutorials coming man, theyre very informative.

[@ryugalul3414]

man i'm loving those little guides, wonder if we're getting a Naoto guide as well

[@robynamory9027]

Had a lot of anxiety about starting Izayoi bc her difficulty reputation but after seeing this I'm ready to go crazy on some people.

[@BlazblueFan]

Great guide! I installed Blazblue a few days ago and already want to play Izaoi.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

Have fun!

[@Unit_00]

I like how you explain the strategy for a character. I would like to see more with other chars.

[@RetoranPetrah]

I picked up central fiction like a week ago at full price, haven't regretted it. Had a ton of fun with kokonoe, but felt my tiny brain being pushed to the limits by the high execution. I have no idea if I was playing neutral well or not because i could only convert off of one move. Decided to swap to Mai and having a ton of fun. Her more advanced combos are a bit unintuitive because they need u to wait out the timings so your move doesn't come out as the autocombo, but i've been having fun with the spinny flips and dashes. Once my setplay/awareness gets better I might pick up kokonoe again, because she is really cool.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

I’m re-learning her now to make a guide.

[@BoibiTheWeak]

"you can do it to your friends" yeah. If you're mad at them.

[@heythatsme5000]

Bro theres no other guide for izoyai on yt. Thank you!

[@GBFGO-PLAYER]

Izayoi has really come a long way honestly, her first iteration in BBCP 1.0 was low key suffering since before, 5B 236B didn't actually combo and 5B 5C was inconsistent due to 5B being longer than both her normal 5C and Gain-Art 5C, so at longer ranges, she could really only get non counter hit 5B 236C off for only two stocks and it forced the player to be better at hitconfirming than usual since there were more "variables" to take into consideration than usual (range, whether it counter hit or not). Some of the changes that she received in CPEX that she still enjoys in CF today is being able to combo into 236B from 5B and 5C moving her slightly forward, making 5B 5C xx a more consistent route. Plus they finally made her 623C a DP which really helps her defense. These changes may seem small at first but these were really big QoL changes, at least for me as someone who had played her before she became known as "EZyoi" lol All that being said, I would've liked to see SKD's Izayoi in BBCP 1.10 (before CPEX and CF) in action more. Personally, I liked her routes in that version more but more importantly, that was when he put that character on the map and made her work before her QoL changes.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

Yeah I remember her being weak on release and almost nonexistent in arcades.

[@kaigai-nikimajikoi325]

Lol Jiyuna "I'm looking forward to seeing an army of Brazilian EZyois that's gonna be running into next online."

[@stryflyer]

Izayoi basically got buffed in every version. Meanwhile CF1.0 Kagura was wondering who pissed in Mori's cereal.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

She got nerfed heavily in this version.

Can't wait for "Why Ragna is Mid Tier"

[@TheJackOfFools]

I *greatly* prefer your BlazBlue stuff man. Your love of the game (and knowledge) make the experience very different than like Strive which you might not hate but you def arent a big fan of. I'm like 90% KZbin consumer of your stuff, and I make it a point to watch your BlazBlue stuff since you said it does poorly on YT. I've been trying Ragna, but after this I might try one of these.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

I love Strive lol.

[@TheJackOfFools]

@@ANIMEILLUMINATI Thats prolly my bad. Before BB rollback you seemed alright with Strive, but you seem way more hype about this so I assumed it was cuz you just didnt like Strive as much as I thought. But you did say this was like your first love in fighting games or something, right? Either way my point is I really like all this BB stuff.

Drip Jiyuna explaining to us the intricacies of EZyoi

[@MianhaeSleep]

Thank you mr.jiyuna but when's hakumen?

[@goffcosplay5642]

I'd love to see a video on Nu 13. It's been ages since I blaz blued but I really enjoyed her game play. I was always more of a Gear player but something about Nu's fast combo mid range zoning felt super fun. I dabbled with lambda and mu a bit when they released but I didnt like how they felt. I cant find anything recent on Nu and I'm assuming she is pretty low tier, but I'm anxious to see if her play style still feels fun in this game. After Christmas I'm planning to finally get the game on steam and start playing again, but I'd love to see an experienced player show some of the basic flow that she has in this game.

[@armlesskirby]

She's probably like bottom 5 in this version or something close to that

[@Ed-1749]

He probably wont do nu because she's low tier and kinda simple. Just press d. Use the ground wheel thing and the sword portal to mix up, but that's literally it. She cant really do anything else.

[@goffcosplay5642]

@@Ed-1749 bummer. With how crazy all the characters are in this version I was hoping they would have added to her kit a bit. It sounds like she's playing early blaz blue and everyone else is rocking some new craziness.

Naoto plays have big dick and broken wrist energy

[@Ed-1749]

She looks like naoto without my fingers falling off. But can she run up dp? I think not.

[@eduardoserpa1682]

It's kind of a joy to see you playing BBCF sometimes, there's so much dumb shit you can throw at people in this game. I gotta try Izayoi again sooner or later.

Leaving a like and comment hoping for more Blazblue videos

[@ultrabendol8411]

honestly i would love if someone (perhaps the blazbue guy jiyuna himself) made a video like this for all bbcf characters

[@pilebunker420]

these videos are good content, keep doing them.

[@paxultek2146]

Nice guide, would be cool to see similar ones for the characters you recommended as easy/beginner friendly for new players. Love the vids keep grinding!

[@rachetmarvel931]

Her normal mode isnt teally meant to be her "weakend" state,its meant to be her defensive state. Her GA mode is her offensive state.

[@aeromangus]

Izayoi's cool but my slight problem with the character is her inputs. With my controller it's hard to be consistent with her qcf and dp inputs and if you get the wrong one, you're screwed. Also, being used to other characters, it is easy to hit D out of habit expecting a move but instead you get an unwanted mode change.

[@esaucortes5840]

I surprise that the combos that you say are in the challenge mode, I really glad that you make me buy the game was so worth it even if we don't get more blazblue like these I gonna still play it like Third strike

[@wlad_95454]

My dear friend just sent me this video on discord because he knows I am learning Izayoi, I will make him regret his investing into my knowledge.

im one of the few idiots who decided to pick up bullet ig shes bottom tier because i can barely find anything about her online would help me and the 3 other bullet mains out there if u covered her

[@Honest_Mids_Masher]

Y'know despite being Low tier a bullet known as Mecha Oni has won a tournament and against Joker (a Ragna main who is an incredibly skilled player) so the difference in tiers can still be made up with practice.

[@rekkazan]

Maybe not Brazilian Izayois, but Brazilian Tsubakis. That character throws DPs in neutral all the time lol.

[@phoenix7012]

Thanks for this video. I wanted to play Izayoi but I got scared and picked up her easier and less cool (IMO) counterpart Tsubaki because she was instantly easier to grasp for me as a new player who's gonna be playing against people who've been at it for years. Now I feel like I have a base to start the character I wanted to play in the first place.

[@bigbreezus]

it'd be really cool if you talked about azrael! the gorilla deserves attention 😩

I been playing bccf for 2 years and I’m still getting clapped by new players idk how?

A good guide to lose your friends! Thanks for the BBCF content Jiyuna, loving the rebirrth of BB. Do you think you can make a vid on Kokonoe?

[@pilsenenjoyer]

I tried learning her some years ago but I sucked at neutral in power mode and my brain kinda just stopped working when I tried to do good mixups lmao. So, I started learning Lambda who is very fun and imoa bit stronger than most people make her out to be. I want to believe I am a better player now and may try with Izayoi again tho.

[@ANIMEILLUMINATI]

All the female characters in this game besides Noel, Makoto and Tsubaki are OP.

I'm interested in Izayoi, but to learn the game and a character at the same time, I'd wish you would make a Mai video like this. After that, Izayoi, Bullet, Nine and Makoto would be characters I'd try. I already gave up on Izanami since I'm not ready to commit that much time to learn her.
