I do like the animation. I like using it just so I can see the animation. Also useful for lows that string into other stuff.
Aah.Low OH is basically used like a low crush.
So how are we supposed to use 3T? I wanna hit people with dat ass.
Why is this character so bad?...

Yeah... that's how we should go about trying to improve the community...Because you don't know how to play.
Low OH is basically used like a low crush. Anticipate somebody who will duck in some form (high crush standing attack, high crush low attack, freezing on low block, keeping a low profile i.e. BKO ducking) and you shall (sometimes) be successful. She doesn't have many crush attacks, so it is good for her but of course do NOT whiff. You will hate her ass if you whiff.
You CAN block and punish things, but not everyone has a low OH, and sometimes you just want to shut down an annoying (crush) situation so that the opponent hesitates on it next time (which is better for Rachel).
Because you don't know how to play.
She wasn't good to begin with TBH... she just had absurdly good, absurdly abusable, absurdly braindead offense... and everything else (spacing, tracking, defense, grappler-type damage)... mehProbably, or this character is just horrible....who can say?
Lolol. I almost can't even remember myself saying that. Sorry man. Didn't mean to do that.Probably, or this character is just horrible....who can say?
She's pretty much VF5FS Jeffry now. Excels at nothing, struggles with everything
now that her stomp was nerfed to hell and back, does she really have anything going for her anymore? she has surprisingly low damage output for a heavy weight grappler. characters like Tina, Bass, Leon etc have far higher damage output to make up for their slower speed where Rachel is both slow and weak.
strike-wise she isn't good either with her attacks being slow and not offering much mixup opportunities compared other grapplers like Lisa/Tina or any decent guardbreaks compared to Leon and Bayman. Defensive wise her counters don't do much damage, she lacks parries, spacing tools, good universal sidestep follows up and her command sidestep isn't much better and many attacks auto track it easily.
Those looking to play a grappler character really have no reason to choose Rachel over the others as she fills no role that others don't already do and do it better
If you want a flashy mix up heavy grappler with great spacing tools pick Lisa
If you want a sexy blond big boobed powerful female grappler with hi damage output pick Tina
If you want grappler who specializes in close range offense, guardbreaks, air throws and can expertly utilize the environment pick Leon
If you want a defensive heavy grappler with hi damaging counters, parries, advanced counters, and being the most evasive of the grapplers pick Bayman
If you want sheer power and the ability to grant a lot of frame advantage from ground pickups that keep your opponent guessing pick Bass
Rachel fills no void, has no strengths, isn't unique in playstyle or in looks and really seems like she has no place at all on the roster as she fails in every category, i'd even go as far to say that she is now low tier
