BG - pushblock everything. It's always worth it.
This is terrible advice. If you block BG she's almost always at negative, you don't want to pushblock her away, that's when you start pressure. The only time I'd advocate push block is after blocking j3 or if the BG MBs a bolo in b1 range (will push block and avoid the mixup).
Truth be told, if you wanna beat BG, pick a character that out-footsies her (e.g. AM, DD, MMH) and try and punish her dashes. If you heavily control her in the neutral it can be hard for her to get her game started (granted, one hit and that's potentially your lifebar...). Don't go for interactables that you need to jump for (unless in an OTG/setup situation).
When you block something correctly, either punish or start throwing out plus strings. Her only fast mid is -18483849 so if she wants to poke out she has to take a heavy risk. Remember that b2u3 is punishable by a large portion of the cast. If your character can punish, learn the punish and get used to doing it on reaction. b2d3~bf3 has a massive gap. The same punishes for b2u3 will punish b2d3~redemption. Practise blocking high, low then buffering your punish (if your character can punish).
b12 is negative! Don't let the BG continue pressure afterward!
j2, b1/b2 is not a block string! You can back dash!
Teleport should be blocked and full combo punished every time. At the end of a game, if the BG tries to chip you out using tele, it can easily be d2'd on reaction by the entire cast.
Be aware that bolo is plus on block so that's how she'll get it. Using dash canceled bolos along with dashing after a blocked bolo.
All cartwheel options can be punished. Learn your punishes! Also learn how to OS backdash.
Don't jump in on BG, she'll air-air you and win for full combo into vortex. Try and make the BG approach you. When she can sit back and d1 dashes on reaction, she has the advantage.
Anyways, all this is much easier said than done, that's why she's such a good character.
