ril213 Posted July 21, 2010 Posted July 21, 2010 didn't see a thread on this yet so i thought i'd post. i havent had any exp. w/this matchup yet. some insight would b nice though.
HaewkE Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 All I can say is that Tsubaki always manage to go right through me with her attacks... all. the. frickin'. time. I always just do the haku/hasu/chun combo on her, and approach with j.B <.< I really dislike meeting Tsubaki as Litchi.
Lord Knight Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 This match is pretty easy :/. Even if you have a weak neutral game, Litchi does 2 to 3k more on average than Tsubaki. Fullscreen neutral: -Keep an eye on her charge meter. -5D/2D depending on their position/preference for charging -ItsuuA against j[D] Midscreen neutral: -5B[m] against Tsubaki 5B. Yours needs to be out first to win. Be prepared to confirm it into 5C (if you've spaced). -Jump back > glide throw against 2C. Her 2C is one of the best AA's, nothing you'll have will win (j2D might but w/e). -5A AA > jB. If she does jCC (as in, jC is already active), just block or try to reposition yourself if you see it coming. -Tsubame against j5[D]. -IB dives (weaker players like this move) Pressure: -Have fun. She has a DP or something. -Just watch for CA. Tsubaki's Pressure: -5B > 2D = Even on block -5C > 2D = +1 - 2B > 2D = Really punishable, if they do this a lot, mash it out. -Overhead damage is low. -Unblockable (22[D]), at close range punish with a normal, at far range, use 6D if you know it's coming (6D > ItsuuD) or backstep if you react to it. -Her Kara throw range is huge! -3C > jump cancel, do late airthrow when jumping out. If she does rising jA or something just block it, if she tries something else you can try to airthrow the start up.
LordSpectreX Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 -Have fun. She has a DP or something. A projectile-attribute DP. :P But seriously, the only thing that Tsubaki has that you should even be slightly concerned about is 22D Unblockable. Since it does lead to good damage with 1 or 2 extra charges, even midscreen. But yeah, as LK sort of said, you can hit her out of it easily with Litchi's amazing range. Plus, her blockstrings are short and predictable. Just look out for it and you should be fine.
