The fact that a lot of the players you are losing to probably have been using their characters since P4A and you are starting off with a new main could also amount to your losses. Specially a character that is still being heavily explored.

236B 5AA5B (detonate) 2C is so good lol, I just had some Yu rage quit on me tonight LOL because of it. Though, he was also really bad at the neutral game getting out ranged and beat out by nearly everything i did, so that probably added to that. It's just so hilarious seeing someone rage quit to Rise though... I hope the poor dude didn't quit the game completely though.

Try to set up to her UB pretty much. But, you'll be saving up your meter most of the match just so you can land it, but landing it does feel very satisfying. It's been posted in here somewhere. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TQbJ-9EXp4 here's a video where I do it somewhere in the second round, I messed it up in round one lol.

Yeah I alternate on my okis too, works a lot better like you said. And if I notice they like teching back too much I set up 22B. The best is when they just start respecting you and start blocking, then you are free to 2C and throw whatever. 2C is still pretty good as it hits behind her as well. I've stuffed cross ups with it. Also yeah shadow mode lets you cancel specials into specials, so that blockstring is legit, they'd have to CA to get out of that blockstun or burst. Of course it means you use 100% of your meter, but it's at least guranteed damage. (and a lot of it really)

Her normals are pretty bad, she gets outranged by most characters. Also, notes are easily escaped midscreen if she ends her strings with 236A or 236B after a sweep, most people just ignore them. I think she's not as bad as P4A Liz or Labrys, she's worse lol. I honestly wanna keep telling myself that it's still week 1 and that she could be better... But, I just can't. ;-; EDIT: I take some things I said back, lightning is actually really good. Specially SB.

That's the combo I've been doing pretty much. But I do a 5C before the sweep. It does good damage and gets me a great set up. Most people so far panic after getting hit by this.

I think she needs a lot of work haha. Like, not only personally but she might be in need of buffs... Like bigger hitbox on 22A at least... and faster persona recovery.

Well you can get DP'd also hop cancels aren't overheads so you'll only be able to go so far with that. It could be decent to try to keep them blocking. Just don't get DP'd. Still, I'd have to test to see if it's DP'able.

I like that 2nd combo the lightning set up. Though, do they get knocked down or can they air tech forward?

Yeah only downside is I need a combo to do when near the corner but not really the corner, the 214B bounces them too far behind for the rest of the combo to connect.

Midscreen I do 5AA 2A+B 236C+D 5C 214B 2B5C 22A j.C j.D leaves them scanned but they can air tech also 5AA 2A+B 236C+D 214B 2B5C 22A 236A lightning hits j.2B leaves them near the notes. Corner I 2A/5AA 5C 2A+B 236A+B 2B(1) 22A 5C2D j.2B leaves them scanned and near a note. Still trying to find better combos. These work on all bodies so far, the first combo has a harder time on skinny characters like Rise.

Remember that 22A won't hit on crouchers or skinny people from a 5C when they are standing. This makes a lot of the corner combos inconsistent and you need new variation versus skinny characters like Yukiko and Rise.

I wonder if a tier-list ever came up for this game? They are done patching it pretty much, right?

I am in austin today and tomorrow. Any games going on?

By random BS I think he means like dumb broken stuff that was broken for no reason (Like Elsa, Lilica, and Zenia unblockable set ups). Just the BS that made you scratch your head and curse at the game for allowing such things to happen, yet your character not being able to do said BS.
