Skarlet scientist
If you're having Problems punishing some characters after a full crimson dash, please take note:
Full Crimson Dash Down Slash = 27 + 20 = 47f
Full Crimson Dash up Slash = 27 + 14 = 41f (6 frames earlier, but punishable if the opponent recovers in time)
Full Crimson Dash F4~... = 27 + 13 = 40f (Much faster than others and is hit confirm-able, you can choose between pressure if they block, or combo if it hits)
Full Crimson Dash 114~... = 27 + 10 = 37f (way faster, but you'll only get pressure)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
NEVER USE downslash on the 7th last frames of Crimson Dash.
Because you'll hardly land the downslash on the opponent frame disadvantage because you'll be 20 frames more slower, so those situations where it would take 7 frames more to block a down slash, can actually be avoided if you F4 them into full combo or pressure if you miss time it and they block
If you need it to move more further in distance and use Downslash in the last frame, you might never be able to punish some characters as they recovers.
There is also the risk of you slash too early and whiff because Skarlet didn't move further enough, so using a 114 or F4 after a full dash at some points is way better than down slash or up slash, that can possibly be blocked or avoided
In case of extra help of how to move in distance with Skarlet here is a small tip:
Dash = 23f
Red Dash = 1 Dash +1 step = 29f (You can't stop it until the frame ends unless you cancel it with any of her follow ups)
2 Dashes = 46f (with a frame interval between the middle)
Crimson Dash = 2 Dashes = 27f (armor starts on the 2nd frame, so it will last for 25/26 frames)
To move from one part of the screen to another in one movement the trick is:
1 Dash Cancel~Crimson Dash
Note: This one is only useful if each characters are placed on each parts of the screen equally, Skarlet will be close enough to start pressure in minimum.
Make sure you practice them in order to counter any opponents options in one move, if you already knew about this then congratulations, if not, then its time to start practicing.
Best regards
