I'm not Rikuto but, I can answer some of this for you.
another question rikuto. i seen you mention on stream how good eliot is. does it mostly have to do with his 9frame strike attack or does he have other tools that make him good.
That i9 punch is the thing that's going to make him a problematic character. His others tools support him extremely well for him to excel. His Parries, his launching throw, juggle damage, and guaranteed setups.
can he truly get guaranteed launchers from all his parries?
Is water wet?! Yeah, he gets attacks and launchers. I did try to use his 3P+K after his mid parry and that wasn't guaranteed. It wasn't on HCH (high counter hold) and it may be guaranteed on a HCH? I'll check him out more this weekend.
does he have guaranteed follow ups that leave the opponents backturned? can he get guaruanteed follow ups on any of his guard breaks?
unfortunately I didn't get to pay with his holds or guard breaks. So I will stop here. I did however use one of his guard breaks


on CH, it's nasty, it also sends people flying for some good distance.
