Introduction

Tam Tam is the most offensive of the Zoners, as his relatively low damage output forces him to go in and gamble on hard 50/50s which, on block, leave him wide open for punishment.

He has some of the best ranged normals in the game. His far 5A in particular is an absurd button that stops grounded approaches dead in their tracks, but recovers fast enough to Anti-Air predictive jumps afterwards as well. His Kicks are excellent, having fast startup, good range and being very safe on block. Tam Tam can use his good lights, to set up tick throws into his damaging, albeit reactable command grab, or throw caution to the wind entirely and bet the farm on his infamous j.C / 2C 50/50.

Tam Tam is very reliant on being in control of the match at all times, since he can’t handle being on the defensive at all. His fastest normal is 6f and his only reversal is slow and incredibly unsafe on block. Most of his specials are also very awkward to use effectively and need a big commitment

Playstyle

Tam Tam is an aggressive zoning character, who can easily force you into hard 50/50 mixups.

Strengths

Weaknesses

Far, fast pokes: Tam Tam has some of the longest pokes and best A and D normals in the game. He also has a good variety of air normals with great hitboxes, giving him quite a good control over the neutral. Mix-ups:Tam Tam can mix the opponent between his IOH, j.C, numerous lows and far-reaching command-grab. Good anti-airs: Tam Tam's 2B, 66B and 66C are excellent anti-air options. Strong zoning: Tam Tam's skull projecitles and fire pillars give Tam Tam him a good zoning game. He also has a far-reaching SSM to punish enemy zoning attempts.

High-risk, low reward: Tam Tam's farthest reaching normals have long recovery, can be punished heavily if misused, and are mostly easy to deflect. His 50/50 mix-up is also incredibly unsafe Low damage: Tam Tam does quite low damage overall, and gets little reward off of Guard Crushes. This forces him to go in and gamble on additional mix-ups. Bad movement: Tam has one of the slowest runs and a very floaty jump, making his movement risky and committal. His jump is so floaty that is j.C IOH is punishable in certain matchups. Gimmicky: Tam has many special moves that lack either lack practical use (Paguna Paguna) or are too risky to use in neutral compared to his other tools (Gaboora Gaboora and Ahaooh Gaboora).

Gameplan

Tam Tam makes one of the best zoning character, he's made to play a keep out game as long as possible. Most of his damaging normals are safer at mid and long range, if the opponent dash-in onto his face when he did a far button, it will whiff the opponent as they are too close. Some of his key buttons are: 5A, 5B, 2C, j.B, and j.C, plus his UOH, fireball and 421S, he can play a good and efficient game in neutral.

Neutral

Using 5A and 5B interchangeably as a poke to stop the opponent from getting into any range less than half screen. Adding some 2C to mess things up a little and beat out deflect attempts. When the opponent is about to jump, you may try using 236A to air reset the opponent, or jump back with j.C to anti-air (or use j.B which is faster), his jump is one of the highest in the game but it's very slow making it not the best for offense. Another AA option is his 623S, but it require good predication, if the opponent jumps at the distance of 623A and do an air normal, it often trades in the opponent's favor. So his 623S is mostly used to beat out attempts of zoning back on him using the C version.

When the range is less than half screen he has another approach which is mostly High / Low mix-ups game. If the opponent is not the best pressure keeping character (such as they have moderate to slow jumps), he can easily neutral j.C for an instant overhead, and use 2C to catch a standing opponent. This is a risky approach as he does better when he's at longer range. If the opponent does have a low jump or other pressure inducing skills, he shouldn't be staying in close combat, try using 421A or C to catch opponents off guard thus creating some space.

Okizeme

His Oki is mostly High-Low mix-ups. Neutral j.C is still good but there's a better approach. His UOH is plus on hit using it repeatedly to catch a crouching opponent on wake-up. When the opponent is conditioned to stand, use 3D or 421A and B for more damage. This is a good way to get some small damage stacked up.
