My biggest issues are with her normals either whiffing or getting beat by the rest of the cast. Same goes for her specials outside of hat stance, they all have terrible startup. Things that are punishable by most other characters, suddenly are safe vs Zatana. GL is such a frustrating matchup with Zatana. I know I have to meter burn a lot and use her trait for meter, but what do you do in so many of her bad matchups?
I know this isn't the matchup thread, but when I look at Zatana I see some really cool tools that don't seem to take into account what the rest of the cast can do. There is still a lot to learn about her, but I feel like I don't know where to begin.
Right now I'm trying to use her 221 and her F211 to get space and use the hat. I try to use BF3MB as much as possible at range. Anything else would be helpful.
