Tao can crawl under my 5B and counter hit me w/ 2A. 5C, j.C, and 6A used at the right times can help in this matchup. Whenever Tao decides to cross up w/ dancing edge (the one that goes up and over you) you can 6A before she lands, but don't mash it cuz I believe she can jump again and wait for you to whiff and try to hit you. The best thing about this matchup is once Ragna gets one solid BNB air combo he should have enough heat to deal w/ Tao's pressure, but Tao can also use her D drive to go behind you while pressuring to bait the DP, and if you whiff you can't rapid safely so you gotta be careful. I heard up back rape's Tao...what's your take on that guys? I also realized on the ground Tao's jabs beat out Ragna's 2A/5B...but for the most part if you get in on Tao you shouldn't let her breathe or she'll start wreaking havoc w/ the D drive mixups.
