Tager can get close. It just takes slowly working your way in. It's just that if you're the kind of guy that just wants to go balls to the wall all out on someone then it's going to seem like a boring, grindingly slow match as Tager inches his way in.
Basically, I guess what I'm wondering is what changed in the matchup, because from me playing it, it feels the same way it did in CT. As far as Haku zoning out Tager, he pretty much had the same toolset in CT, or at least moves that functioned the same way. In CS I use j.C to keep him out of the air and 4C on the ground, in CT I used 6A to keep him out of the air and 6C on the ground. You can keep him out until he gets you magnetized, and when he gets in he can end the round. It was 5.5 Tager's favor in CT and in CS it was considered 5.5 Haku's favor.
So for it to go from 5.5/4.5 to 6.5/3.5 seems to be a bit dramatic. I never felt that Tager was helpless or anything; you poke him to keep him out doing a little damage, but if he gets in he makes it all up and more. I'm just curious what you guys are thinking.
Looking at the overall matchup for Tager though, it doesn't make sense to me that Haku/Tager would be 3.5 for Tager but Mu/Tager would be 5-5... I'm pretty sure that Mu can shut down Tager a lot more effectively, so she would have to be much higher there, right?
