a few things you missed: db1,2 is an i14 mid high yes but its easily hit confirmable. The second hit counter hit launches should the opponent press/get interrupted. also the first hit is a high crush so against Mishimas who love to abuse electrics, this tool is perfect. FC df2 is actually a launcher on CH if you have the execution. You need to CC df2 which I believe is either a just frame or a two frame link. Requires some practice to get used to it. Forgot to mention her punch sabaki and her kick sabaki. Basically, with Asuka having b3, ss2, cancan, reversal, punch and kick sabaki, you kinda don't have to block with her lol

She's tricky, but your character probably has some unique options to beat most of her bs. After that, its mainly the full crouch mix that you're trying to mitigate in my experience. With Asuka on the other hand, no amount of training is going to help you guess correctly between d1+2 and 1+2 at point blank range. Thinking of sidestepping? She's got you covered there too, and she'll take the plus frames off that tracking move. Did you put a bunch of effort into learning how to chicken?

Since she does not have a jab, she counters yours with parry, dont jab unless you chicken. As an oscar i want to keep the knees and elbows only from your move list and cut everything else out. Strong lows also work if you can time it as i dont duck too much. Just dont spam, its rude to her, she likes it calculated. I always start with 1+4 to condition the duck, especially in death match. Hmmm I came! Def my fav by orders of magnitude. Easy and strong just like my hypothetical power lifting girlfriend. Ps: throw mix up does work, eventually ill get thrown if i turtle. But that will remind me of my throw game, which is superb.

She feels like the most scrub-friendly high-level character. You don't need a lot of fundamentals to use her but she's not like Katarina where you can just get away with not even understanding the character. I think her backflip is probably almost on the level of Paul's d/f+2. You can just go back into it after whiff and if you pick the shot correctly you get big rewards. IMO free whiffing is something Tekken seriously needs to minimize, especially on attacks that are good even without that property.

You forgot to mention chickening. Buffer a chicken input to most of your attacks. Annoying but worth doing/practicing for this matchup
@painandpyro2 жыл бұрын
I feel like Namco really needs to address how impractical this is. Chickening is finicky enough, but what's really absurd is the fact that it makes certain moves/stings almost unusable. For example: if you were playing Asuka and wanted to chicken your 3, you actually can't do that without doing the full 31 string, because the input for the chicken includes 1 (f1+3) which activates the second hit, which is unsafe. This only scales and gets worse with other characters, such as if I want to use crucial Zafi moves like df1 or ff3, I'm forced to inadvertently use the 2nd hits, which are launch punishable. So now, "playing around" a character, doesn't mean being careful with timing and making them safer with commands - it means literally being unable to use certain normal moves. And thats not even mentioning the fact that the damn safe (launching in some cases) sabakis are unchickenable
