  19. here is how i read people with tager: do strings with no intention of followthrough, just do safe pressure, try to put in gaps where you block as much as possible early on. vs some characters this isnt as likely to happen. try to notice their overall attitude if you can't reliably get into a situation where you can read them. one of my favorite things to do is test their reaction/mashing with a single 2D. do it as early as possible (vs someone you've never played before anyway), and see how they deal with it. do they IB the hit before it and then mash jab? do they IB the 2d itself and hit 5a? do they mash reversal without a care in the world? you'll notice how precise their methods for beating string gaps is and how in control they are about defense. after the 2d is blocked, what is their reaction to it? do they jump or do they backdash or do they reversal or do they block? i find vs mediocre players, after a 2d is blocked, they will do ONE thing a lot. they will mix it up after they are told not to sometimes. but keep this single thing in the back of your head, this is going to be your clutch read if round 1 goes sour from experimenting. good players will rarely let me land a 2d in the first place. in one move, i find vs a majority of players, i can test the type of player im playing very, very well. this is also america so this shit wouldnt really fly in a japanese style tournament, but when i have a lot of rounds to work with, this nets me a lot of good results. the next step is play normally without giving up too much, do certain moves without a lot of follow up, do a lot of moves in your arsenal, do them twice. do a lot of moves, you'll notice anything but even the best players have a few specific reactions they do as habit to certain moves. exploit the hell out of this. some people will always chicken block after weird normals you don't see a lot, this is because they had success doing this vs a specific player and since they rarely see the move (or were punished), its not in their head to change it up. if you see players react different to a lot of different moves and change it up, you're going to have to straight up make good judgement calls on things that aren't explicit. how do they deal with risk/reward? do they sit on meter or like to get out of trouble ASAP (generally). how good is their reaction time? there's really no good answer vs a good player besides waiting or forcing mistakes and going on their playstyle, even then, that won't get you everything 100% of the time. one of the few things im good at is reading people, so take thats what you will. edit: also imo defense in blazblue is like 95% reaction, so i don't really read on defense in this game unless the player has dumb habits.
