  1. My bad, but I see what you mean. Jin is one of my better matchups so I'm used to seeing what I want to punish.
  2. If you saw 623D come out wouldn't it be better to just 5D 236C? I suppose that's spacing dependent. The problem with her DP is that it can screw you over if it's used and positioned in a bad spot. Say for instance, if Jin does 623D right in your face, you do it, and he's close enough that you can't reliably combo into jD etc. You might even miss a sword and you know where that will end. Also, if for instance you barrier block the first hit of 623D, won't it push Jin far enough away that her DP will miss, assuming you have one primer and are forced to do it. The most mind-boggling moments for me is when I punish a character directly in the corner, I try to figure out what to do next, but then I realize, 2C is the shit lol. Either way, Lambda's DP isn't something that should be relied on in a pinch. Both CA and DP have their strengths and weaknesses, but I much prefer CA.
  3. CA is still safer, even then. Her DP is easy to read. The thing about her primers is that Lambda is fairly mobile so it's rare that she'll be in a guard breakable state, even with her having 4 primers in Extend. DP is effective though against gaps in their blockstrings since she can punish pretty easily to slow overheads and things like that. But under pressure, where you're knocked down and you have the option to do a wake up DP, I'd recommend CA instead. But if they read that as well, I guess you're outta luck haha.
  4. No. Saving it for a CA is much better than DP super. If he reads the DP, you're screwed, getting in a CA is a better option nine times out of ten. Jin is probably one of my better match-ups and I rarely use DP anymore. People are reading it quite easily now, so I only rely on CA to get out of pressure. His block strings aren't that bad either. Keep up the IB. If he does 6C, normally they go 623C right after so you can punish that.
  5. Nu was my main in CT and in CS it's Lambda. I know now that I was horrible as Nu back then, but my Lambda is better for it. Anyways, I picked her because she's serious cute. It's quite humorous how often my main can die, but she will always be my main! :D
