Cassie Cage General Discussion Thread

[Vslayer]

It really confuses me why I see so many people saying “Cassie corner game is bad”. She is terrifying in the corner. What doesn’t she have in the corner for people to think she is good because in my eyes she has everything she needs to break opponents down piece by piece.

Yup, she does great damage once you get her side switching combos down. She has two staggers that you can confirm into F4 or a grab. I mean the mind games are endless with her.

Can you collect some conern combos? In the other thread I only saw B13 BnB.
And I can do easy combo from J3. Other than that just string into ender (BD3 or BF4).

As DB1 AMP does not work I am out of options now but I trust in your experience.

Why you think she terrifying.

She has the same mind game in the corner as everyone else but less ways to open them up for big damage. People just panic when the get in the corner, and do dumb stuff. If your not afraid of being in the corner she’s really not that scary. Yeah you can F4 stagger them to death but you can do that midscreen. She has all the tools to keep you in the corner but I don’t think she scary at all.

Why you think she terrifying.

She gets good damage in the corner, great frametraps, pressure and mind games become really strong, +6 nutkick, safejumps against almost every wakeup in the game all while never really having to take much risk at all

DB1 amp does work but it really depends. Like I usually do B13 * S1 * S1 * 3,4 + low gunshot amp (they'll switch sides) and then you do into B2 + nut kick. But the timing and the hight they're at is pretty strict. Just experiment with that stuff in the lab.

Sure everyone is scary in the corner, I mean she's not Sonya scary, but she's up there. F4 in the corner is 100x scarier because people freak out and keep pressing buttons.

She isn’t a heavy hitter but the damage she gets with meter and meter less is good damage for her.

Please tell me what is the good damage, frametrap, pressure, +6 nutkick.

Ok but anything else than unsafe and low B13?

I do not see the "great pressure", "frametrap", "good damage - from other than one launcher"...

Just block low, deal with the F4 stagger. She only gets good damage off of 2 strings and a jump in kick. I’m not saying she’s not good in the corner but she def not any scarier than mid screen. There’s def way more scarier characters in the corner

If you use the Yaas QUeen variation, you can use the B13 in the corner after AMP Energy Burst

the problem is people always stay in the opponents face, but if you leave them some space they'll think 'oh it's my time to go on offense!' and they most likely won't be blocking low.

Thanks. I never tried it yet.

What are the 2 strings? B13 and?

Yes that is obvious. So I do not miss anything but the "basic" corner pressure but with Cassie not every touch will be 300 just the B13 one (or J3) or another string I do not know about yet.

It is time to play some Cassie...
I expect massive loss series before I can perform better but no problem until it is fun. At least I can find out if Cassie is fun to me or not.

That’s because most people panic in the corner. If you just stand your ground block low and don’t hit buttons every 2 seconds she’s not that scary. I agree the damage adds up over time. I don’t think she’s bad in the corner but I don’t think she as scary as people are saying

 

[sars]

34 but it’s a high mid

 

[Hor_PeT]

Oh I did not even realize it is a starter other than using after B13 in Bnb.
Can you tell me a Bnb with that? It is not in the "Chew Bubblegum" thread.
I have not seen using it in any pro play either yet but I am just new.

The one that I use is B24 AMP Kneecapping 34 Up Glow Kick

In the corner

I use 34
111 exguns
1,1,1,34, nut punch
1, 34, db1 amp, 4, nutpunch

It also starts up in 8 frames so it’s a nice -9 frame punish

Midscreen you can only get ex gunshot after

I tried but it does not combo to me in corner. Or I am just so dumb.

Oh great.
I found now this one as good damage: 34, 1, 1, 1, 1, 111xxBD3 (267) This will be my favorite as I do the same after J3.
Probably against females need less S1.
I could do 5 S1 for 275 but it is too many. Probably 3 is the most consistent.

Actually for me, that's my midscreen. Probably should have mentioned that.

My corner one is B13 1 1 34 AMP Kneecappin, and after the side switch, you do F41 Nutkick

34, 1, 1, 34nutkick at the highest point is +6
34, 3amphighguns, 111nutkick 36% I think and amp nutkick is 40% I think

Didn't even think of trying AMP Dual Wielding in the corner, thanks.

 

[Hor_PeT]

34, 1, 1, 34nutkick at the highest point is +6

Wait I miss something. Isn't nutkick (DB3) always +2 restand ?

Second Bnb might be strict or not for females as I could not connect 111 after amp high gun. With consistency it would definitely worth the bar to me (+10% for 1 bar is as good as Scorpion).
