Might as well repost this here :

Nu can be frustrating to fight because she forces you to change your playstyle. I haven't fought her yet in this version so I can't really comment on the matchup, but general advice would just be to not airdash towards her nor set more than one stein at a time. Don't use your special moves too much at neutral either. Try to stick to dash barrier wait, neutral jump wait, try to bait her to throwing swords that will whiff which then allow you to get in if you haven't already used your airdash. If you block a sword, whatever, just keep doing it till you see an opening.

A thing that still works that I found in Extend was at the start of the round you can use a microdash and immediately barrier cancel it and and hold down and back. You will slightly slide forward while blocking low and it will make Nu's 6d, 5d or TK 236d whiff. You can still block 3c or whatever they throw at you while standing (except the 4b overhead, but they would normally not throw that out at the start of the round)and if they airdash back, you can still block any incoming D's heading your way

edit: i meant tk 214d, not 236d for the crescent kick

YOLO Ikutachi can hit Nu out of her 5d, mistimed 6d , 236d or 214d but that is very risky but it stops those auto pilotting Nu players that i have seen over the past few days. The good thing is that while being close to a corner a CH ikutachi combo does like 3.8k meterless damage with oki

I didn't know you could do that. I'll remember this then.
