I look at the character and use peripheral vision to see the resources.

Do you know how inconsistent 2P > 6K > tatami is? That shit works like 50% of the time?
October 24, 2024 at 5:00 PM
Have you never considered mental stack to be a factor in any of this? They both have a lot of mental stack. Also baiken really only gets a safe jump then 1 50/50 without meter, aside from that it’s strike throw, or tether reset.
October 24, 2024 at 4:18 PM
Half the time when baiken lands a hit it doesn't confirm, you need a big hit to get anything started, like a CH, a crouching hit, or meter. Its a matter of consistency

White boy
October 24, 2024 at 4:10 PM
Maybe I'm wrong, but from what you're tellin me and the prior knowledge I have I still don't agree
October 24, 2024 at 4:07 PM
I don't agree wit that. Millia has not nearly as good as she was prepatch, but baiken has more issues in general compared to millia.
October 24, 2024 at 4:06 PM
Lose in neutral, the better ofd you are.
October 24, 2024 at 4:04 PM
This. Baiken has slightly better defense and more damage, millia has better neutral, not as good defense, and slightly better conversionability. Imo neutral is way more important than better damage and defense especially in a game where it's so you die in 2-3 interactions. The less interactions
October 24, 2024 at 4:04 PM
Aside from parry, doesn't baiken have the same issue? Your 2P is bigger than her 5P? And parry is strong but is risking your life for a potential reversal, you eat shit against delay meaty. Again, not sayin parry is ass, but they both have to work on defense. In my head you can compare them like
October 24, 2024 at 4:02 PM
You have to get in and LAND the throw, and GET a knockdown to actually set up for tether, and against a lot of characters is extremely hard to do that. A lot character don't have to approach baiken. Making baiken approach is how you beat her.
October 24, 2024 at 3:57 PM
Than baiken
October 24, 2024 at 3:55 PM
Baiken is at her strongest wit tether, her up close is meh cuz she can't convert without resources. Baiken has to work more for meaningful hits, while Millia's better neutral makes it easier to land those hits or whiff punish. I'm not sayin millia is top tier and shi, but she has better tools rn
October 24, 2024 at 3:55 PM
Rest is strike throw and resets
October 24, 2024 at 3:52 PM
Can you not use WA for better oki? Cuz you're talkin bout baiken like she has Godlike meterless mix? She needs WA, tether, or meter to do more than 1 50/50
October 24, 2024 at 3:52 PM
And contest the tatami (sin can do that well) so sometimes baiken had to force their way in wit IAD j.S or using hkad (which are both commitments and rps after)
October 24, 2024 at 3:49 PM
Most people are moving themselves to the corner against Baiken, quite the opposite as baiken is during shi like IADB tatami to set up a small no no square and gain a bit of meter, but what happens if you dash block into it? Baiken moves into the corner slowly, or if you have a good 6P you can try
October 24, 2024 at 3:48 PM
Or since I'm sin I can just elk or contest with beak. When Baiken uses Hkad, it's still a commitment as you can also IAD button into it too.
October 24, 2024 at 3:47 PM
Hkab is not that strong to make people wanna move away from it or be scared of it in neutral, unless you're like pot or some shi. Hkab is pretty good, but consider what characters can do against it, for example, as sin I'm literally never scared of it cuz on block I rps wit mash, dp, or IB Throw
October 24, 2024 at 3:46 PM
Baiken needs meter, a CH, or a hit on crouch to convert into 2H.
October 24, 2024 at 3:43 PM
Wait, are you sayin Baiken is converting more wit her f.S than millia wit hers?
October 24, 2024 at 3:42 PM
And j.S is very good, but it's still a commitment she has to IAD wit it.
