Spending money I should not be spending... :D

I've played GG like twice and I've never touched this before so I'm scrubby beyond words

Also any advice for a good 6-button stick setup to use? like:

AB or ABC
CD D

Arcade is:
ABC
D

And it seems more natural than ABCD since you want D as close to you as possible so you can mash on it harder.

Well, the patch for PS3 netcode was released on Xbox at release. PS3 patch was supposed to be available at release, but you know how the certification process can be finicky and things delayed...

Arcade actually gives you an option between two configurations:
BCD
A

ABC
D

Most players (but not all by any stretch) prefer the bottom one with ABC on the same row. That configuration is more similar to the configurations for games like Melty, Arcana, etc. Keep in mind the following button chord combinations in case that effects which is most comfortable for you:
A+B (barrier)
B+C (throw)
A+B+C (rapid cancel)
A+B+C+D (barrier burst)

any specific combos to combo into devoured by darkness? ive only figured out by 5D DC 5d. if anyone know any other ways that would be greatly appreciated.

also online i thought that jin/ragna would be the ken of BB online. but its surprisingly enough noel. so many scrubby noels really surprised me heh

edit: actually is it even worth using BK or use your meter all on RC's?

Honestly, not really. It's cool and all and it's nice for burst baiting (almost anyone's gonna burst out of a j.D or two once they see how much damage it's doing) but there are better things to spend your meter on like making blocked uppercuts safe with RCs or keeping someone from bursting by comboing into Carnage Scissors for the kill, etc. Blood Kain is wicked cool though, so...

Also yeah, the US PS3 version has not yet been patched. There will be a drastic netcode fix in the near future, according to Aksys.
