I guess I should ask a question, and this is kinda bugging me, but how does one fight ciel? It seems the only thing you can do is play uber defensively, which is hard 'cause Tohno's only strengths are his bullshit priority and damage.
you stab her in the face, and stab her safely!
Oh wow thanks... y'know when I typed "play uber defensively" I totally didn't think that safety would be a factor.
i was joking, but anyways.. since i dont play Tohno Shiki, i will just give Minor details that probalby could be wrong but watevers, For Shiki pokes and strings that leads to 5a Whiff against Ciel, you can go on the offensive just make sure you jumpin with anything but jC or jB form high places, low jumping jB or jC are ok.. cause you can land and block whatever punishment she gives..
doing 2C endign wtih 5A whiff cancels can save you from anythign such as EX heiro watevers.. dont do any Okizeme Meaty that can give you long recovery that Ciel can just Wake UP ex out of it.. stuff that can put you back into Neutral can save you from random Ciel stuff... shield jump ins like her cross up jB and stuff can also save you some stuff.. be careful of your activations blah blah blah
tohno's 5B has pretty good clash frames if i remember correctily and can be used against some of Ciels jump ins to out clash stuff ;o... etc etc..
