>___< I know, I know. I'm not good enough for my opinion to matter, but still: I have to defend the honor of MB's newest loli.
It may be because I'm not facing against crazy amazing people, but Shiro Ren's icicles are pretty great among my group. I don't know if it's simply because I can see when a character's jumping well, but I can pin people in a corner fairly sufficiently ((though admittedly far worse than some of the crazy Kuro Ren players)) with 236A's if they attack low with a frame advantage or dash, and 236B's if they try to jump out. They've begun to Ex shield the move, but so far Circuit hasn't helped them out all that much. The problem I used to have was when Warakia tried to tornado, but I just teleport through it now.
To deal damage, I use 2CCj.BCj.BCTh ((rather than the 2C4B, since the height difference makes it work less often)) into a dash plus meaty-ish j.236A or j.2C to put them in blockstun and continue the pinning.
I guess the summary is, if you can react really quickly, her moveset is _very_ nice at stalemating. Damage dealing may be another issue, since her combo without the 236C juggling is ~2500, but if you _take_ no damage, it's still good, isn't it?
>_> And all of this is ignoring the 236[A]>623A/B mixup...
I really don't know what the point of this was... No one will ever say she's good until she's boosted to a noticeable level... But I still love her, and will continue playing as her. >_> I'm asking my friends right now why she's good. I'll be back with their complaints-- I mean, responses. ^________^
