Barrier defense.

If Litchi is magnetized Tager can 5C 6A etc., I believe. Also Tager Buster if he starts point blank. Hakumen can do 3C 2B 214A if he only has 1 star and your theorized 3C 214B(1) 623AA is actually optimal.

Do you still need Fong's?

I believe the first step in being able to read other people is to make it as hard as possible for others to read you. If you are easily read, you cannot condition an opponent or stay a step ahead of them. So the first thing you should do is rather than guessing what an opponent will do, make sure they're having trouble guessing against you first.

Litchi has too strong of a design to really ever be a trash character. They'd have to fuck her up bad, lol.

Lol. I'd come help you guys but I don't have a strong connection and also don't like netplaying, sorry! Maybe sometime in the future. EDIT: And you're 360 users anyways

Chou (LI)/Tsujikawa (MA)/Nasubi (PL)

I also wasn't too impressed with Don, he almost died to beginner mode Tager lol. Chou put on a great show, had some nice confirms with 6D near the corner (xx 2C 6D dash 6B/6C) although he usually dropped the followups.

Yeah, it was a Litchi, not a Ragna.

Fuck yeah Chou! Very glad he is sticking with Litchi, at least for now. He's pulled off a few really smooth combos, although a couple of them didn't lead anywhere it's great to see some setups.

She does in CS1 too. It's just that they all yield high rewards.

I'm sorry, what? This addition makes no sense, unless you're stuck getting bodied by low-level Litchis.

I know this is nitpicky and all but it's not that normals were nerfed, it's just that you can't special cancel into Itsuu from anything.

Lows and throws will beat it, IIRC.

I entirely prefer playing offline, I don't play online (only very rarely) as a rule to myself. I wouldn't be surprised at all with this, to be honest. However it is forcing the opponent into a worse position so it's not all bad if it's true.

I'm fairly certain he was referring to people who try to punish no-techs by extending their combos, which usually doesn't add much damage and can be teched at any time. It's different when someone fudges a hit in the middle of a bnb and you don't tech, usually they can just carry on and finish their combo.

Fio did it once or twice. I'm pretty sure it's the exact same recovery as usual. I'm fairly certain that all the followup hits are mid, something like that would've been mentioned by now. Only reason I don't know for sure myself is that when Fio did it the opponent got hit by the 2nd hit.

my fight moneyyyyyy

Yeah, I'm sure we'll be seeing some crazy stuff from Chou or Shounen (assuming they stick to her) given time.

No, that's brand new.

Unless proration is too high, 5B 5C 6D(2) 5B Haku Chun 5B blah blah blah should work. That's why I'm curious to see it.

I wish he would go for 5B 2C 4D midscreen, I want to see what she can get off of it. I'm also curious why he isn't trying 5B 5C 6D stuff. You should still be able to link into 5B.

You can't RC any of the Itsuu moves either.
