I'm gonna miss full-pull on 5d.
-
would AC whiff, 2c into whatever work better than AC whiff, 6B/2B/6C into whatever? What I mean is, since 2c has better proration would it just be more efficient to do like, 5D CH, xx, AC Whiff, 2c, xx, keep looping?

I'll probably be playin' tonight, anyone up for some QUALITY TEACHING?

For 6c to land in a collider whiff combo, I tend to look at how long my combo is already. Like for every iteration of the loop (collider, collider whiff, xx) I'll try to throw out 6c first, then 6b, then 2b. Like I wouldn't throw out a 6c, j.2c after I'd already thrown out a 6b prior in the combo. On a side note: What are the best options for comboing off an unmag'd yomi AC? I always freak out and treat it like the end of a combo, ergo: BSledge, tech trap/GF or j.c whiff, instant j.2c, GF

I'm gonna say no because GF is a set-move. No amount of hits in a combo will cause the untechable time to increase or decrease, unlike say, Atomic Collider. Also: These Tager vidyas still aren't really utilizing 6A, is it because it loses to lows and is super punishable on reaction?

This match up is definitely a lot harder than lambda's for me - due to the fact that Mu has viable close-range options, primarily 5c which has a start up of only 14 frames. I'm having a bit of trouble dealing with her antics. She's not afraid of Tager close range, and she can park her self behind a stein and bait... everything. B-sledge obviously will give her a free CH-combo. Where-as the moment I get close enough, 5c comes out and because I'm terrible at instant blocking - I just get hit. Also: Lasers everywhere! I don't know what to block and when I can react, I usually just get CH out of shit.

On defense, be careful with what moves you throw out. Haku's blockstrings have just enough gaps to make it seem like you can do something but are tight enough that your move will never make it out in time. The key is to figure out the various points where it would hurt you to try and attack.

This is also important: don't rely on command throws. First, work on just getting your fundamentals up. Figure out how you can combo from pretty much any random poke and what moves you can use with what spacing to beat Hakumen's moves. For instance, doing 5C right after a throw break will beat Hakumen doing 4C clean. If you can do this, you won't always be going for throws, so they won't be as expected and thus scarier. You also need pressure up close that keeps Hakumen pinned down and stops him from jumping out, or catches jump outs. If he tries to jump out you get a combo, if he starts staying still you can go for throws. You have to "train" the other player first before you can go for your more advanced techniques. Backdash is good if the Haku gets aggressive. IB helps a lot.
-
Yeah, I don't think it's smart to challenge Hakumen air to air. You'll get beat almost every time. You're better off slowly making your way in on the ground and jumping in through the air while blocking, to push Hakumen back. Don't fire Spark Bolt as soon as you get hit; hold it so the Hakumen has to be more careful and that will let you get in easier. If he does something dumb you can nail him with Spark Bolt.

GF mixup is my one holy grail of fun. And no insights yet. You always just jump around all the time with your incredible spacing and I can't break green throws for dicks or even IB properly. I also can't break your j.c and 4c wall of pain. Tick throws don't exist vs. you, and neither does AA because its Tager. Haku beats Tager out of every single aerial attack, and I can't seem to beat 3c with anything - probably because 3c is 9f startup. So no, I've nothing. I mean it wasn't just me playing bad since I pretty much leveled Shervin 11 out of 13 games.

GGs dawg. You endured it. :P Your gadget finger mixup is getting scary. I'm guessing wrong half the time. x_x Usually I'm like "lol, gadget finger" but it's turning into an annoyance against you. Any thoughts on the matchup? You seemed to be going through several phases of trying different things.
