Melty Blood Auditorium / How do I improve my blockstrings / pressure ?

What do you guys have in mind when executing your blockstrings? How do you condition your opponents in baiting them to poke but results in a counter hit in your favor instead, making your opponents block wrong, making them bunker just to punish them afterwards? How do you break their guard?
I played played and played, but every time I'll be on offensive, I feel like I'm using the same blockstrings over and over again and the opponent catches on whatever I wanted to do next. Using VAkiha on MBAC, I even get poked out of 5b!5c blockstring! On Last Blade 2 where Moriya's normals stronger than A are punishable, I rely on A attacks to make them poke wrong, but I always end up getting punished because they know when i'll end my strings. I don't know how to pressure using Jin on BBCS.
I also feel like my gameplay is boring, dull and "just going by the books"
Is having less variety of opponents a factor? I live in the Philippines and finding matches here is pretty hard when they're all fapping to tekken and SF. and delays are quite high when i'm fighting Singaporeans.
