AsterLudkweiz Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 I've been running into a lot of mirror matches lately. Most of them I've been able to deal with. But one specific type of Tao just frustrates me to no end. The drive spammer who semi-knows what they're doing. Mirror matches are always tough and I think we should have discussion about how everyone deals with mirror matches. Let's start us off. How do you punish drive spam with Tao?
XDest Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 A well placed 5C counter hit on landing will usually tell them what's up. At least that's how I deal with it.
TaoFTW Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 3c, beserker barrage, imma beat the crap out of you, 6a, crawl.
Sileh Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Tao vs. Tao is too much cute for one game. Seriously, just nail your combos, counter drives with C moves. It's going to come down to who can move better and who can land the most damaging combos.

XDest Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 Hahaha Duck are you literally posting that in every vs Tao thread? You're my hero.
OMG its a duck Posted December 11, 2009 Posted December 11, 2009 It's a running joke because the match-up forums are usually really bad and there's usually always one guy who says "just IB everything", as if that's oh so helpful

Or you could just not post period. Your choice.

Pirateyoshi Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 I am displeased by this coming of events. Had it coming though. So, what tools does Tao have to beat her own j.C? Anything cleanly punish it on IB? Sort of hard now that I think about the delay.
Ronove Posted December 12, 2009 Posted December 12, 2009 Pirateyoshi, IB on air vs air or ground vs air? If it's IB on air you pretty much do anything you want, depending on how close you are. If you're on ground, 2a/5b/6a/throw. I like to use j.B a lot in this matchup, you can delay it and you can use efficiently as deep crossup after a jump-in/IAD or even after a 2D.
Pirateyoshi Posted December 13, 2009 Posted December 13, 2009 I mean air-to-ground. Will Tao be able to just cancel the j.C into something before landing though? Heh, I will just go to training mode today and play around with that.
