3-string Hit-confirm

Katarina's 3-string can be hit-confirmed after the first 2 hits. This means you have access to a safe, i14 mid-poke with good range and good damage (38).

Confirming after 3,3,3

This confirm is easier to do. Even if not confirmed, it is only -10 and can additionally be cancelled into HAR to evade a potential i10 punish (potentially netting a HAR 1 CH for 50 dmg).

Confirming after 3,3

Opening beats from the Terminator 2: Judgement Day theme by Brad Fiedel. The interval between the 2nd and 3rd beats is how much time you have to confirm the hit.

The best way to hit-confirm the 3-string after two hits is to use the theme from Terminator 2: Judgement Day as a reference. You have enough time between the 2nd and 3rd beats to confirm a hit. You can do this by looking at the health bar (to check for decrease) by looking for the hit sparks.
