Flowcharts

  • d+4 into hopkick will crush jabs
  • d3 into b2 will crush jabs for a launch. b2 is a decent anti-jab string tool in general
  • 1,1,2 into d/f+4 is a good CH-fishing flowchart at low levels. The follow-up d/f+4 can be stepped right by every character.


CH HAR 1 backroll catch

If opponents backroll after getting hit by CH HAR 1 > f,F+3, you can launch them with b+2 instead of the guaranteed u/b+4 or d+3+4 for more damage. The Kat player can confirm the opponent behaviour by observing if they stand up during the d+3+4. The opponent can avoid this by staying on the ground.

Unblockable setup

End a combo after screwing with d/f+1 and immediately press d/b+3+4 for the unblockable. This catches opponents who try any wakeup option including tech roll (left/right), quick back roll and quick recovery. You gain ~40 dmg from cutting the combo (~50 dmg vs. ~70 if finished) but landing the unblockable (60 dmg). It is beaten by staying grounded and whiff punishing after wakeup. If the opponent stays grounded, you can do u/b+4 to hit grounded.
