So what if you can backdash after tonya swipes she can easily blow that up with F2.
Great, you can backdash and Tanya is still next to you, backdashing EXtonfa toss isn't game changing.
Depends on the character, some can backdash and whiff punish, either way you're out of pressure and in neutral/advantage now
Cool, you can option select armor out of Delayed tonfa swipes.
yeah, and it hurts tanya a lot, I've told this in a Tanya thread maybe 6 months ago that if anyone has a bar, THEY choose when to get pressure back, all it requires is knowing when, you get to choose if its either during her gaps or when she's plus
I guess Tanya will have to use one of her dozen tools instead and build meter so she can be safe again on her tonfa string because she doesn't have anything else.
the other options are teleporting (loses pressure), mixup specials (punishable and soon fuzzyable) or tonfa toss (reactable+punishable before the move ends)
What if the opposing character doesn't have a bar of meter, a good backdash or both? They're completely fucked by your character.
Spending a bar of meter to get out of meterless pressure or making risky backdash are her weaknesses?
everyone is "fucked" when they have no bar left, thats the ONLY time in the game where Tanya can do the pressure she's capable of without being in constant risk (unless she's playing vs Quan Chi that is)
not downplaying, just pointing out the counters... I'm amazed how many people hate Tanya yet just.. don't... friggin.. lab her. I've labbed several hours against all my bad MU's and I don't yell nerf unless it's obviously broken, to me Tanya just had the tools to deal with the S tier bullshit, but none of those MU's (imo) were in her favor (except Quan Chi, she wrecks Quan Chi), people relying too much on their offense and with the upcoming patch that's all going to be taken down a notch, so let's all be happy and lab from now on, pls.
