Glad to be onboard!

I liked your day one Cassie @Vjeekes. Her run cancel combos are awkward online, but you did well with them.

Three things that might help. Getaway flip is a good anti air. Hit box is a little small, but it comes out quicker than d2 so it works well in a pinch.

After a missile set up, you were running in and using d2. F3 or d+f 1 are better in that scenario as they need to be blocked high/low and both lead into a bnb.

There's a string, I think it's f24, that advances Cassie forward and leads to a knock down. Looks like a dash punch followed by two kicks. You can't cancel out of it, so it's not very good for Brawler or Hollywood, but the knock down window is big enough for Spec Ops to call a missile.

Hope that helps

Thanks for the advice. I was looking for some sort of setup that gives me enough advantage to call a missile safely. That would extend her pressure,
for combo's: In the corner i use jip 424 , B13 xx flip , f2 4 xx flip, run 11 glow kick for 32 % which is not great but acceptable.
Still looking for some damaging combo's midscreen

A nice corner carry I did yesterday with Hollywood is db3, run, 4, 21u4, 21u4, 21xxEx nutt punch. That's close to 40% if I remember correctly, i'll experiment more with her today.

Mid screen for Spec Ops tops out at around 30% if you can get the 212 after the run cancel. Corner, it's about 40% meterless. It's not a high damage variation, but her footsies and her corner game are really good. If you want more damage, Hollywood has nutpunch restands and Brawler has a high damaging ender. One of the best things about Cassie is that all of her BnB's are universal except for the enders, so time spent working on one variation is time spent working on all of them.

She has a command grab too. I haven't looked into it much. You should be able to option select it so that it comes out on block only. Don't know if you can tick it from strings like Erron Black, but it's probably worth experimenting.

I've been practicing my OS's with Commando since Sunday and I landed a couple in KOTH last night. It has been my primary focus since picking up the variation, so no time dedicated to combos, but last night showed me that they're not impossible. Like most things in fighting games, it requires muscle memory.

Scorpion has an OS from b3 into spear and if blocked it goes into regular b32f2, i'll have to learn it eventually.

Those types I find harder. Kano can OS laser and blade slice to come out on hit only, saving the need to hit confirm, but for the life of me I can't get the timing down consistently. For now I'm gonna have to practice confirms the old fashioned way.
