Shiki Nanaya / Re: Corner 623c Ender

Also I was just curious: is there a reason to air dash before air throwing for Nanaya? It doesn't seem like it has any advantage but I could be mistaken again.

only just noticed this. You do it in the corner, VS some chars it allows you to do 2B 5C okizeme which you can hitconfirm into 214B for knockdown.

How does that work? It doesn't seem like Nanaya lands any faster or closer to the corner whether I air dash or not.

Test it for yourself. Airthrow them in the corner and try to do 2B 5C 214B. Then try doing it after an airdash airthrow. It doesn't work VS some chars with fucky hitboxes though.

Wow I have no idea why, but that actually does work on all the characters I've tested so far (Sion, Arc, Ciel, Warc and VAkiha). When I air throw without the air dash the 5C comes up short every time. Good stuff; never would have found out something like this randomly.

j.c 5b 5c 2c 2b j.bc j.bc airthrow is 5288 on Sion

j.c 5b 5c 2c 2b 623c 5a 5b j.bc j.bc airthrow is 5676 on Sion

It's enough extra damage that's worth using meter for.

Ah yea... I just tried for myself as well and got the same results. Looks like I'll still be in practice mode for awhile.

I've been watching some videos of Nanaya players and aside from the higher damage BnB they also go into launcher > 623c > air combo.

Now I might be missing something important, but is there a point to this? It seems like it nets less damage and uses up meter compared to if you did a regular BnB. The timing of the 2a 5b relaunch is also much more unforgiving than the 2c 5b launch for the higher damage BnB.

Thanks guys. Any help would be appreciated.
