    When I get a hit I like to cancel into 6c-623b-jc-airdash-heldjc-c-3c-jb-jc-throw. Does a little bit less damage than your bnb (around 100 less) but it is very consistent working at almost any ranges, any starters and doesn’t get hurt by scaling in most situations. So if anyone is struggling w these confirms this one may feel easier

    This guide was amazing!! You've got a new sub!! Was amazingly informational, with plenty of examples to see it in action. I've recently incorporated the blood heat on wakeup with 3BC and man has it been a godsend, especially against Arc or Kouma. The backdash I will experiment with more, since I've seen many ppl get away from my pressure that way as well. Lastly, that 2CC strat to end your block string is beautiful! It has even helped me make some neat comebacks, since many ppl think they can mash afterwards, allowing me to get a hit. Very well done guide, good stuff!

  • @homurayurisquad1423

    i just watched this video since i've been curious how similar she is to nitroplus saber, after hearing they are both similar and really different. in case anyone's interested from my observations.
    the main similarity is that they both are rushdown characters. her 214B looks really similar in both games, and seem to be used pretty similarily. as a (near) full screen low. nitroplus saber has no rekkas, a helm breaker, dive kick that covers a lot more space, and sometimes crossup, or hit low because of the angle(chicken blocking or hitting her before startup prevents it from being broken).
    excalibur in nitroplus also has invul frames, and immediate startup after the super flash, so it some times can be used for hard call outs, where they can't react to super flashes. i personally dont see much nitroplus saber players backdash to bait much compared to just straight aggression with big buttons, with some mixups. i dont think she has the different visible and invisible sword modes as her nitro counterpart in melty.
    the way they play are probably really different because of odd game mechanics but it'd be an interesting comparison vid if you played nitroplus, and feel like making one. since there aren't too many content creators who played both games too much.

      Just FYI, it's not really a thing that's specific to Saber. Any character can do that type of OS, except usually you'll get crouch shield. Essentially, you can time your shield input, so that it only comes out if j.C whiffs. You can also do something like meaty 2A > 2D > any normal (you'd go for this off of throw, for example). If you time it just right, it will beat heat and invincible reversals.

    I feel like the rekka has there uses in different situations. The 236A>4A should mostly be used for spacing because the further away you are the more likely people can Shield the OH or low(if you delay it). The 236A>6A keeps you closer thus makes the mix less likely to be reacted to and keeps you in 22C range more consistently and still has the mix although they can potentially mash 5A on the OH. That's just my idea on it, anyway great video.
