I know..... but even when I'm anticipating it for some reason Throw Punishing it is very inconsistent.

I'd say the Frame Data was wrong but I was able to i10 Throw Punish it sometimes......
Well I just tested it. I was able to consistently punish with Rachel's own 4T every time. I was also able to punish with both 6k and 6p which are 13 frames.

In what type of environment are you trying to throw punish but get CH?

It usually happened when I played the AI and I was unable to punish that move a single time after blocking it so many times.... I was very sure it was Highly Unsafe but just to be sure I took her to the Dojo and recorded :1::P::P: :9::K: then I tried Punishing it...... I was using Tina by the way.... her throws are faster. And yet I still kept getting Hi Counter Hit by the :9::K: half of the time.

Thats weird....You should be able to punish...You can just try to buffer 4T and let go after the move is blocked. I believe that it should increase your chances of punishing it...But I dont know what else to say to be honest. Just keep on trying until you can get it consistent =[

The funny thing about Rachel is The Very Thing that makes her Boring is the exact same thing that makes her such a Great Character.

that's the challenge to play bare-bone characters like momiji , rachel etc. these characters do get boring to play sometimes but if you want to improve purely on fundamentals , there are no better characters than these .

Yep.... thats why I never use them playing against the AI, theres just nothing to learn from them in that situation.

However they are fantastic to use against other real players.

I love Rachel. Pressuring with her is golden! The fact that she's easy to play helps. I do get called spammer more often when I use her and Momiji tho...

Well you can always try to outspace them since they are trying to poke you. This allows their move to whiff and you can counter poke during their recovery. You can also block and wait for something really punishable and punish accordingly.
Thank you I guess I can't be offensive with her due to her speed do you have any tips against Ninjas for using Spartan..I mean Rachel?
