Kohaku & Mech-Hisui / H-KohaMech (1.07)
« on: February 28, 2012, 07:03:08 PM »
H-Kohamech gets pretty ridiculous amounts of damage when she hits you with anything in the corner, and her midscreen damage is still quite high.
All damage tested on VSion with no reduction.
Midscreen Combos
Corner Combos
For optimum damage in the corner, you always want to go into the auxiliary facepalm (214A) loop.
Neutral Game
H-KohaMech relies on 2C and j.B for space control in neutral. Her airdash is different from H-Koha's - now it is a shorter, parabolic airdash. This makes it arguably more difficult to space her j.B. However, she gains Mech assists to aid her neutral game.
214[C] is a very good way to control space, as the opponent can't hit the Mech summon when it comes from behind. Unfortunately, only 214C can be used from the air. Non-charged 214C is useful for covering air approach, acting as a meat shield.
214A can can be used from the air and is also (back)dash cancellable, but it's air blockable and whiffs crouchers. Can be used to unexpectedly change air momentum and catch opponents off guard. Easy to confirm from, as it causes wallslam.
623B is air unblockable, hits far, and can be backdash cancelled to keep it relatively safe.
Pressure
22A
This move is central to her corner pressure. The spikeball in air unblockable (but only 22A, not 22B), bounces the opponent on hit (enabling the paintrain for 1/2 of their life) and you can move after it so if the opponent ground shields it you can throw them. However, after a spikeball you don't get the Mech followup to the command throw for a limited amount of time. Also beware that Mech can be hit before she launches the spikeball.
Normals
Much like H-Kohaku, H-KohaMech has good normals to keep the opponent in the corner from a distance. However, with her feint cancel gone she now has less ways to cancel out of them. 5C, 2C and 5[ B] hit from very far and should keep the opponent at bay. Her 2[C] is different from H-Koha's - it moves her forward more, is multihit, and can be cancelled into 236A or 22A on block.
Other
Her overhead (236[A]) has reduced recovery and is very hard to punish. It is also cancellable into 22A on block. When the opponent starts respecting 22A you can dash in command throw and 22C dash normal throw for damage.

However, it requires correct Mech positioning - if she is too close to the opponent the beams will whiff. Also note that the beam assist shouldn't be cancelled into its special dash followup, instead you should wait for it to recover fully and then dash.Code: [Select]
