that's not necessarily true. tager's damage output is roughly around a consistent 3-4k BnB when magnetized (if i remember correctly) and then the 5.6k 720? hazama's damage output is rougly 3k BnB and his punishers do roughly 4k-7k depending on meter. the reason for the huge spread for his punish damage is because hazama is a high risk/high reward character. on top of that most his combos yield him great meter gain so he pretty much always has the meter stocked to punish at any given moment.

magnetization < ouroboros. because any slight movement affects how you move while magnetize, hazama's movement becomes unpredictable when following a chain while tager uses some type of magnetization move

once tager loses spark what is there to fear? hazama can hit tager once and run the whole match. avoid the spark and it's pretty much over =_= also hazama by far does not have low damage output.

214D~A> Jayoku 214D~A charged> 5b 214D~A> 2A

regarding the midscreen Jayoku combo that Zakiyama did: in order to combo the j.6D you MUST hit the 4 6Ds so that they are at the very tip of Jakou's hit range. probably his hardest combo

i've beaten Carnage Scissors, Ashura, Hells Fang, G.E.T.B, and other stuff i can't remember command grab is too good

people hate me

yes only possible after hitting with a CH jayoku

you can jump cancel at anytime. if you watch videos you can see that sometimes they only do j.Cx2 > j.Cx5 > hirentotsu

yes jakou has to be barriered. that strategy is really good once in a while, been doing it a bit myself xP

no j.C is jump cancellable

FREE

it's not timing, it's spacing. if you don't hit them with jakou high enough you'll always miss.

tricky timing or so it feels

exactly

easier for you to get in on carl than it is carl to get in on hazama. it's not hard for hazama to close in on carl at all because if he hits with chain then he instantly goes, if he blocks chain then don't go. as simple as that.

if you can't get in safely with hazama then what is wrong with you X_X lolol. seriously though, getting next to your opponent shouldn't be the problem, getting them off you really is :o

if by dash cancel you mean dashing specials then yes hazama can do dashing specials

not hard just a little tricky

Tager? All you have to do against that is just Aggrivate him with chains/chain fakes all day to force errors and punish, so long as tager does not hit you with a spark you have nothing to worry about. Jan hates playing my hazama cause i don't do anything the whole match but hit him with like 2 combos and then run the whole match and win xP Also i don't have enough experience against the whole cast to know exactly how to fight everyone. what i do is generally not the same as other hazamas. Each person has his own way of fighting so i can't really say how to play him properly

No

you can do it outside of fatal counter if i remember, Ertai would do that combo without fatal counter
