[CS2] Rachel Loketest Discussion (Keep shit in this thread)


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

6c forcing stand was one of the pieces of info gathered from the loketests, so we can assume that it's in until we actually get some game play footage.

EDIT: I misread your post, i think it was both hit and block.

lf you put it that way... but really, most of her other moves already do this, and you want to save wind. l doubt 6c would be safe on block anyway tbh, even with the ib nerf.

Yes it matters, it would mean that even if blocked, you'd be able to 6c the opponent towards the corner while staying safe. Although, if the opponent stays crouched, I wonder if it's possible to replace j.c with j.2c to continue the pressing.

6C does force standing now. So there's no reason to not just do jC instead of j2C. Also, doing 6C on block isn't really a good idea...

As for buffed 6B, it's pretty hard to combo on CH... actually probably harder to combo on CH than it is now since it also has ground slide properties. :psyduck:

To address 5CC, I'm pretty sure it doesn't slide Rachel forward (at this point). The 5CC slides probably refers to it's ground slide property.

To elaborate on what Polka said, 6C on block has all kinds of problems. Huge ones. First of all, if you're using 6C on block, you're really going to be using 6CD on block, because otherwise you're going to get pushed back and spin out in mid-air, making you free to punish. And if you use 6CD... Okay.

Do me a favor. Open up training mode, pick Ragna, and have your dummy be Rachel. Record 6CD. Play that back, and after you block the first hit, start mashing back/downback. The point of this? It's incredibly easy to instant block 6CD's many hits, meaning players who know about this will take the opportunity to score anywhere from 5-25+(!!) free heat.

It's also not the safest place to be in depending on how they blocked. People throw out grabs and reversals, etc. Just bad news all around.
