6. Setups Note: xD means you can use either 2D, 4D, 5D, or 6D.

5. Combos Notation Legend () - Optional, used mainly for combo enders or notes (ex. 6c > xd > (xd > 612346c) x - Button input of your choice (ex. 6c > xd is a stein placement of your choosing ~ - Continue until appropriate, used to fix range/spacing issues (ex. 66~6a) []x# - A loop, repeat bracketed inputs (#) times ex. ([2b > 6a > j.2c]x3) : - Minor Delay, as to not overly spell out waiting periods (ex. 6a > :6b) When reading µ's combos, some keywords may apply, the most notable being Habacan. Short for Habakiri-Cancel, this is used as shorthand for 214d(no hit/whiff). A reoccurring combo mechanic.

4. Tactics 1. 2C vs 6A Some of you may be wondering when to use 2C and 6A. Mu also has a DP but it shouldn't be used as an anti-air because it is relatively unsafe on block and it isn't even air unblockable. Mu's general answer to jump ins is one of these two moves. The differences between these two moves is the start up and the hitboxes of each of them. 6A is faster but the hitbox is more horizontal than vertical while 2C is slower but has more of a vertical hitbox. Now that we know the differences, we can talk about when to use each of these moves. 6A Hitbox 2C Hitbox Since 6A comes out faster than 2C, it should be used more for close jump ins. An example would be when Jin jump cancels a certain move into j.B in a blockstring, Mu should use 6A. If 2C was used, Mu would be hit out of the move during the start up animation. 2C should be used when an opponent is air dashing in on Mu from 3/4 to full screen. Then, one should be able to react and counter the opponent's jump in with a 2C. 6A isn't reliable in this situation due to a really small horizontal hitbox so it isn't guaranteed to beat out certain moves. The new 2C > 5C gatling makes 2C more reliable, as you can now cancel into another air unblockable if the spacing is right, if 2C is counterhit, you can whiff the gatling and still pick up into a full combo. 2. 236D vs 214D While both specials destroy your steins, they have very different uses. Both moves have a lot of startup, and normally should not be used in tight situations, yet both also provide a very strong advantage to Mu when used. 236D stays active longer and protects Mu while it's out, allowing for generally safe mixup and movement. The damage and proration on the laser is also very good, so picking up combos off of it can lead to good damage. Performing a combo on an opponent while the laser is active may cause the laser to disrupt your combo, so pay attention. 214D is very plus on block, giving a 40 frame advantage, as well as removing a primer. It also does a truckload of damage on hit, picking the opponent off the ground and leading to very strong combos. However it will still destroy your steins if you're hit during the startup, and the explosions are rather easy to avoid. The move is often used in setups or traps to catch your opponent making a mistake.

He lost to Xie and someone else.

Same. Makoto has trouble getting in on Mu so it really isn't too much of a problem. Just make sure you don't get hit! loll.....

From the first post.

Updated first post with some nice info.

.......... Go to Japan and play if you want to play Mu's that don't hold up back all day. Or you could alternatively go to PNW...

Well...you can carpool with me or dacidbro. It doesn't really matter since I'll pass by that area anyways.

I'll be there! If anybody from the south bay is going I can carpool. Let me know. =p I'll be heading up there through 680->280.

ok so uhh.... 1. 2C CH > 6C works but I'd rather just do 2c ch > jc > iad.f > j.c > j.2c > dash > 3c > sod. Better corner carry or if you want oki then replace 3c > sod with 2b > 5c > 6c. 2. 6A CH > 236A I recommend NOT doing this. It only works if they tech neutral. If they tech forward or back, you're essentially putting the game back into neutral which I don't really suggest. 3. (Corner) SoD / pickup 2B > 6A > j.2C > j.236A I haven't been able to use the j.236a as oki. I'd rather put out steins and stuff and then do 236a. Refer to the third setup in the corner setups. It's much more efficient as this one even if the opponent neutral techs, they can still DP you. 4. 214D (hit) > 6B> 6A. j.2C > j.236A Why not just do 2b > 5c > 6c after the j.2c? After the 6c you have the option of corner carry or oki. As with the previous setup, I'm pretty sure they can DP you... In recent news, I've been working on a new midscreen setup. It's mostly good but have to test a few more things out.

2. Corner Setups These setups assume you just finished a corner bnb that creates steins in the corner and ends with j.2c. More to come. 3c > 214d - The go-to braindead setup for easy oki and mixup. 214d provides you with a huge window to do, basically, whatever you want, and breaks a primer to boot. Mu can also recover in time to block wakeup reversals. The largest benefit of this setup is that if you manage to hit your opponent it leads into very substantial damage. j.x[d] - This ender works similar to the 5[d] ender midscreen, covering Mu's mixup and allowing for a more pinpoint, aggressive offense. 8:j.2c > j.5d > 236a - A passive setup that leaves Mu completely protected, though airbourne. Meaty 236a will punish all rolls and force block on wakeup, whereas Mu is far above the range of any dp, including Infernal Divider and Ashura. Mu can fall after the 236a into a j.b/2b mixup, which is for the most part hidden by the 236a graphic. In addition to all this the j.5d will hit after the 236a is done, providing even more time for Mu to do as she wishes. In the case where the opponent tries to dp, it will be punished by either j.5d will combo off 236a, giving you ample time to pick up a punish combo, albeit a heavily prorated one.

1. Midscreen Setups These are good examples of midscreen options in combos ending with 6c. More to come. 6c > 5[d] > IAD - Provides the a high number of options on the opponent's wakeup. Mu can block wakeup dp, as well as go for a high/low with j.b/2b. Mu can also throw the opponent before the laser hits, or tick throw off the laser hit. It is important to note that the laser will not catch the opponent from rolling or hit meaty on neutral tech, but instead covers your options on their wakeup. Another bonus is that IAD > land 6b will cause the laser to hit after 6b, and allows you to combo off it where you usually could not. Landing 2b will catch forward rolls, whereas if the opponent rolls away then tries to jump out, the laser can still clip them. 6c > :5d > SoD - This setup is universally safe, it moves the opponent far out of range of things like wakeup dp. It will also catch both forward and backwards rolls. In the corner, because they recover in the air, the laser will force them to block no matter what direction they air tech. Very safe setup providing ample time to set more steins or move into other specials. 2b > 5c > 6c > 2d > j.2c > j.2d > 236a - This setup is safe, it moves the opponent out of range of things like wakeup dp. It will catch the forward roll. If the opponent neutral techs, the opponent will be forced to block the oncoming lasers which will allow you to set more steins or mix up the opponent. If the opponent uses the backward roll option, they have the choice of staying where they are to block the lasers or jump at you and air dash in. By the time the opponent is approaching you, you will have more than enough time to AA their move or air throw them if they think you will AA them. This setup is most effective if you have an extra stein behind the opponent. At this stage, you can use 236d and mix up your opponent in many different ways. 2b > 5c > 6c > 2d > 8:j.2c - This setup is mostly safe. It will catch any opponent that tries to roll forward and automatically bait most DPs and reversals. If the opponent forward rolls, j.2c will catch the opponent and you can do another combo. If they neutral tech reversal, it will whiff and the stein that you had set will counter hit your opponent. If they backwards roll, they will be across the screen from Mu which will allow her to zone again.

Reserved.

I actually find this match a lot easier than what it used to be in cs1. You really have to bait out jayoku houtenjins (serpent's rapture?). I felt the key to the match up is zoning. If you can set up steins then that puts haz in a bad position. I feel with habaya and steins, it wasn't too bad. I also felt like other match ups except more important against haz is if you get him in the corner, you really want to contain him there and don't let him get out. Moves like 5c and j.c will help you do that. Just bear in mind at those ranges, be careful of haz 3c.

I've played a little against Jin. From how it seems to me, you really have to zone in this match up. I do feel Mu has the range advantage on normals due to 5c. Once jin starts his pressure on you, you really have to wait for a gap and dp. In terms of anti-airs, mu's 2c was beating jin out but then again, I timed it early when I played. This was against j.b I was assuming and I got a CH. So the AAs probably depend on the range. The main mix up you have to watch out for is whether Jin will throw you or not. He'll mix it up between throwing and 6b. The answer is DP but he could be baiting it. So just be careful about that.

Whatever about renaming the thread. This is talking about changes from cs1 to cs2 and how people feel. About people not really liking mu well....cs2 has a lot of new mechanics and it just came out about a week ago? The game needs more time to develop than just 1 week. I'd trade those vortex setups for more solid play. A better 236a really helps against hazama and that was one of her worst match ups in cs1. I feel her zoning game got A LOT better. In terms of counter assaults/dead angles they got better but you have to be more dedicated to what move you're doing it against. With a safe 6b, you can hitconfirm into sod. As for oki, there are still setups just you can't do it as frequently anymore. Besides for most match ups, you'll probably want to keep your opponent away anyways. I feel if you want to get good with mu, you'll need good spacing and zoning.

Discuss the match up here.

Discuss the match up here. The Good: - 5c easily beats Sledge, leading to good damage off CH - Mu's zoning is a nightmare for Tager, especially when he's under fire from charged steins and command laser - Simply running underneath a jumping Tager to the other side will negate almost all of his approach options, as his ground ones are completely stuffed by 5c and lasers The Bad: - 6c is a projectile, don't use it as a poke or it will get sledged - As soon as you are magnitized this matchup becomes much harder, be sure to avoid Spark Bolt by whatever means possible - Tager's j.2c can bait antiairs, make sure he's in range before letting loose with one - It's while it may be easy to win by "playing lame", don't get cocky, Tager can still kill you for poor rushdown approaches

Discuss the match up here. The Good: - Tsubaki can't follow up her 5b at max range - Tsubaki really has to get in close in order to really do any damage. Even if she does, if Tsubaki makes a mistake, Mu can just DP and put Tsubaki full screen away again. - Mu is good at keeping Tsubaki out with her tools. (5C, 2C, j.C, 236A, steins) The Bad: - Tsubaki's 5b has a really good hitbox - She builds up a lot of charge in a very short amount of time. Watch out for her charge as she may use it for D DP and follow ups or just to get in or the 22d unblockable setup. - Don't get predictable otherwise you can get CH'd by Tsubaki's 214X move series.
