Notes:

- During the corner wall bounce combos, almost every component of the loop has to be delayed (where '-' is noted). You need to do this in order to keep your opponent as low as possible, without reaching OTG

- If having trouble with the j.63214B 5B link, do your best to do the TK as low as possible

- Aforementioned combos use standard air combo finishers. However, you can do pretty much every finisher after a 2C. Some options are:


4C j.(A)BC j.ABC j.6AD	High damage, standard oki
4C j.BC j.ABC j.2C	High damage, techable oki, OTG with j.63214C if no tech
623A	Long oki
236A 236A 214A	Long oki, OTG. 623C OTG if done on an airbone opponent
5C - 236[B]	Long oki and corner space

Strategy

Do what you need to do to extrapolate on the character. Here are example categories below.

Move Descriptions

Normal Moves

2A Standard jab that hits low. +1 on block.

5A Standard jab that whiffs on most non-point-blank crouching opponents. -1 on block.

2B A decent poke with low recover that advances forward, useful for cross-downs. -4 on block.

5B Can be charged for an overhead, or used half-charged followed by 2B for a feint overhead. -4 on block. Charged is -10 on block.

2C A sweep that reaches pretty far and high. Long recover. -6 on block.

5C Can be charged for a slow unblockable. -9 on block. If it hits the opponent in air, it can be followed up with another 5C for a superjump pursuit.

3C A swipe up which launches opponents (grounded or in the air). Has clash frames at her head before the hit, and has a disjointed hitboxe above her head. - 10 on block.

4C Launcher used in many combos. Can be charged as an overhead. -24 on block. Charged is -27 on block.

jA Standard jA that hits mid

jB A move that hits twice, and as such often wastes air counter hits. The first part of the move hits upwards, and the second part hits downwards. Only the second part will come out if you input the move while falling

j2B A claw dive with not-so-many active frames. Big recover, very situational, can be cancelled into ground specials. Hits mid

jC Decent priority and a lot of active frames

j2C Changes your trajectory, can be used as a sort of airdash. 2 parts, the second one having huge priority but coming very late during the move. Can be neutral/positive on block if done at very low height. Hits mid
