Yeah Zong, I was the Rachel using your color because none of those PS3s had the dlc Slayer color.

Still no results thread so I'll post here Shoutouts to CS Rachel for preventing me from getting blown up Shoutouts to laggy monitors making me lose the only match up I actually practice(not Carl) Shoutouts to CopperDabbit, Shtkn, and the random Ragna/Litchi for playing casuals with me Shoutouts to Ike Takeda for owning me in Skull Girls Shoutouts to Dacidbro for being my 1st MM and ignoring my 1st shoutout by blowing me up in our 1st 2 sets anyway(sorry Zidane, I'm one of the scrubs who gave Dacid free money). Couldn't come on Sunday because of school stuff, anyone know if the GG setup was more alive then?

Rachel can 3C 4D(maybe 7D too), so its not a 100% punish. 3C is multiple hits making its easier to see someone IBing it w/o having to intentionally bait Jayoku. Does IB Jayoku beat j.3DC 2C?

6A is better than CS 6A again, buffed in 1st loketest and nerfed in 2nd loketest. Since its been buffed again Arc does want Rachel to have a reliable AA, so since they're actually testing 6A this time we should have a good AA w/o people thinking its the most BS move ever.

Henaki iirc SJ(and other people) never said Hazama wasn't 3rd in the other 2 threads. They just didn't like you and Zidane putting him into S tier with Litchi and Bang so he thinks you guys put him so high because you have the best EC Hazama( or at least one of the best US Hazama/BB players in general). Also not sure where this WC/EC stuff is coming from, thought SJ knew Alz and some of you guys. Anyways its BB, no need to be serious since its not SSF4 EDIT- forgot to address the topic, Hotaru is the best for previous reasons, Rachel's 5C is the worst FC in CS. Barely any extra damage( if any since you mostly land it when you're out of wind by accident) slow, very punishable and horrible range.

Geno is right, it only works on Hazama, Tsubaki, and Makoto while they are crouching in the corner and 5b works after the 236a so you don't need 2a.

I know its different, I'm asking about the lvl 3 j.2c. The combo changes after that because the one I posted does more damage, when I do the first part of the combo I need 2 winds for lvl 3 j.2c so whats your 3 wind version? EDIT- ok we were both just lazy with our notation I got it. CH 2C 2D jump 2Dj.2C 632146C dash under sj8D j.2C 214A dash under 3c(hold) 5CC 236B dash 214C dash sj j.B j.C JC j.B j.C j.236A

CH 2C 2D jump 2D lvl2 j.2c BBL lvl3 j.2C frog 3C(hold) 5CC 236B dash 214 dash j.B j.C JC j.B j.C j.236A 5414 dmg So your combo is 4 winds, character specific, or I'm doing it wrong. Mind explaining how to do a 3 wind version Geno?

CH 2C already does 4.6k in CS so with a dmg buff 5.3k sounds right, also unless CS2 changes this the combo DC posted only needs 2 winds.

I already sent the list to Soniti kro_, hes just been too busy to update it.

Yes she does, but most of the 5k practical ones are in corner(and start from throw lol). Even the MaDao spike loop only gives us about 3-3.8k from a 5b based on how much wind you want to use, 6a is so unreliable I wouldn't count the 5k mid screen combo as practical and my 4k mid screen 3c combo needs 50 meter. So even though her overall damage and wind use is definitely better than when SJ made this, most of the combos are still Litchi BnB damage or less. (unless you can start from a j.2C FC that guarantees a 5-8k combo)

ggs Jason and anyone else who played against my terrible Rachel.(hate the stupid sticks at AI) Zong were you playing as multiple characters?

http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9696579 Matsu vs Shadow's Hakumen, Kaqn's Jin and Dio. Nice guardbreak combo by Kaqn in Rebel 2( does 2C still beat 6D?), Carl looks like he is impossible to zone against with Rachel. He can literally stand there and wait for a time up.

Would've liked to see more of the 1st Rachel's crossups against a better opponent, crossup air sword iris looks nice for hitting through DPs since it lasts so long(this should work except against Jin's D DP right?).

Anyone know why Matsu chooses to wind back during a block string with a frog out instead of just 2C?(mostly noticed this in Ten vs Matsu) I've played against Tsubaki before and I know you can 2C through a lot of her block strings and in Ten vs Matsu part 2 he decides to wind back a frog in the 2nd round and in the 3rd round gets a 2C CH followed by a 3k combo on the same block string Ten used before.

Rachel(Erushii) vs Tagers, http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9407556 Rachel( Erushii) vs Noel and Bang, http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9408104 Omitan Rachels aren't worth watching.

Rachel vs Carl is dumb. Anyways I play this match up by turtling unfortunately. Basic strategy I use is set frog so he has to IAD to get to you and 2C if he uses j. C or j. 2C to BnB (you should be able to see him start this, don't guess) or 6A for j. A, being between him and Nirvana isn't a bad place to be anymore with his weaker punch loop combos and Rachel's faster 2C to CH him if he tries to mix up. This worked last time I went to AI, I'm not sure how effective this really is so If someone wants to start CS Rachel match up threads like the other character forums have we could have better players than me help put info together that could work on some of her harder matches.
