Getting the timing for the 3C Houtenjin relaunch perfected was a gdlk moment for me, I use it whenever I can, which is alot.
going for the setup is usually a good idea most of the time, I just use it mostly mid-screen. (which I think is how its used anyway) If they ARE going in the corner, I'll finish it then go for the corner game rather than dropping for a 2D reset.
