i dont know if you understand that you can only use dark dash in dark stance and light dash in light stance. same goes for all other dark/light moves. and as you correctly stated, dark stance is timed so you will not always be in it. dark stance is supposed to be stronger for that very reason, similar to injustice raven (which i mained btw).
- You are looking at it being cancelled. Both versions do this..... So once again I ask. Why would I use the light form dash? Better yet, why would you use the light form dash over the dark form dash based on what you've seen?
- .... Why would I risk whiffing the follow up in light form when I can be in dark form and just not have to risk it? Watch it whiff at 3:21. You just got punished cause you whiffed it.
- No, I am not thinking its a pressure tool. The dark dash does the same thing with the fast follow up. Even better, I can just use the slow follow up of the dark dash and get a punish since you can react almost immediately after you teleport. At that point, look back at point 2.
- Both versions of the fast follow up switch sides. Once again, Dark has a better list going for it....
- The normal at 3:16. Even in the case of that being a high, she still has another string with a similar range that is slightly slower due to having another normal before it. If that normal is a mid, the projectile lost what little use it had. The projectile startup is very reactable and we've seen that kameos can eat hits. That move will literally be suicide on use. You saw her uppercut right? Why would I ever risk using that projectile?
Why would I use the light form for anything other than cashing out????
- You arent using the light projectile to zone because it goes nowhere and its far too slow.
- You arent using it on reaction for anti-airs because its too slow and any of her launches look to do a better job.
- You arent using it as a poke/spacing because its too slow and you have the normal at 3:16
Even foxy said the dark form just looks better. The light form offers nothing that you dont already get access too with your normals besides letting you cash out on dark stacks. If you've looked at the breakdown 5 times, I need you to look another 30 cause you clearly we are seeing different things. How do you fail to see the redundancies here? This is why I mentioned changing the light dash to be something else because its spot is already taken. It spawning a ghost at said location instead of teleporting you and allowing your specials to interact with it would give you a reason to be in light mode and a reason to swap besides cashing out dark stacks for damage.
Allowing the light dash to spawn a ghost also means you can actually allows you to bait them better since they wouldnt want you to setup for reasons stated in my OG post. This would also give the projectile an actual use besides being a glorified reaction checker since it passing through the ghost would extend the range. This obviously comes with weaknesses since you have to setup the clone in light form and then have enough of an advantage to swap forms.
about the projectile, it travels 2/3 of the screen, it just gets smaller, similar to sub-zeros ice barrage or whatever its called. that 3:16 normal is 99% a high, and travels about 1/3 of the screen. i'm not saying the projectile great and surely not that it will be dominant, but i can see its situational uses
