I disagree. I think it's trivial to confirm off BE214s and BEj.214s. If you expect them to block in the corner, then a blocked j.C can lead into a j.22 blockstring, and so you can auto pilot that for j.C counter hit confirms.
It's only marginally more difficult to hitconfirm off a random low j.214, so long as the last hit of j.214 hits. The hard part for me is maintaining the combo with all the wacky directionals needed to control the pit directions, double jumping to continue, and tking j.22 after the the j.214s to rep the loop. Purely execution, which can be ironed out given enough time.

I want to learn this char solely to do this inf.

This is gonna sound kinda off-topic, but when you guys are doing constant TK j.22s on stick, how often do you touch the edge of the gate? Or in general?

It's just that when I was mashing out all this fastfall stuff with Nanaya, I damaged the stick to the point where very occasionally, after doing a high jump, when the stick snaps back into neutral, it touches the "2"
direction switch, automatically forcing a fastfall, which ruins a lot of my air combos.

I'm not riding the edges, but when I IAD and DP, I do hit the edges out of habit? Is this normal?

That's a spring thing, probably. Tighten it up.

Could well be, it is used after all. Thanks.

Still, I do want to improve my form. So back to the original question: How often do you find yourself touching the edges?

I hit the edges during 623s, 22s, and tks.

There prolly isn't a motion that I don't use the gate on. My advice is to try and get into the habit of not just letting go of the stick to let it return to neutral, and instead leave your hand on it and ease it back to neutral. Every stick I've used has this issue unless your spring is very tight.

Just wondering, can this character combo into 6C? That's honestly the only reason I decided to pick up Half instead. I prefer this character's movelist symmetry (air and ground specials), and the 22x series voice acting.

It's possible, but so unlikely that it might as well be impossible. You can spend ten years playing FVAkiha and never have a situation come up that allows it.

I love this character. Aside from 2BBB.

On the other hand, for the basic BnB:
stuff>4C>j.AC>dj.C>j.236B, sometimes the j.236B will whiff. How do I control the positioning on this?

Also, how do you play against Necos? Break down and cry about your awkward air normals?

End with 236C instead or change aircombo as necessary for hitboxes.

236C knockdown is ridiculously good and other 236s are finicky, so I pretty much never end in 236B.

Then what is your meterless ender?

Meterless ender is take the time to learn how to adjust the timing of your air combo to position yourself relative to the opponent. Just spend the meter~

It is a useful skill, though, especially for strange confirms with anti air 5A. At the very least, knowing how to drop the enemy and how to raise them is important.

If you don't have the meter to 236C, you're probably doing it wrong.

If you're that pressed, I'd personally just airthrow. I can't get 236B/A to reliably end aircombos outside the corner, and in the corner, there are better combo paths with better oki than aircombo.
