Rachel General Discussion

Rachel is a great character. But I don't see anything broken. Hey stomp leaves get at +15, but unlike Helena she's much slower, and much less advantage then Helena got on ft in vanilla.

Are there any guaranteed options for it?

Mostly fixed Helena? Check.
Replaced her nonsense with a new big-tittied blonde with a ponytail? Check.

Looks like lazy mother-fuckers found their new goddess.

She has an i17 low that's +5 on NH. If anyone played SCV they'd know that's patroklos has a similar move that was +2 on nh, and it's one of if not the best low in the game. This is that except even better.

Rikuto's other favorite character (Helena) has traditionally hosted a similar capacity that's built into string mix-ups.

Patroklos' 1K isn't even that fast and gives less advantage. Lol it's i18.

That's not even what makes her good.

I'll do it then.

If she DOESN'T land the 2K, she's +11.

There.

First I absolutely love that character and you guys have seen nothing yet. If you really wanna play IMO the best rachel atm play sonic fox's. But in addition to her deceiving frame advantage even after she doesn't land the 2k, her OH is why that FT combo is deadly. If you get hit by the OH on counter hit, its an automatic loop cause 6pkp is guaranteed, you get bounced very high and she can catch you and put you into the loop. I dont see anyone do that yet online so be prepare for the cheapness lol. then if you get hit by it on NH if you remain standing you get hit by her p which could lead to a guaranteed stun ( i will keep that one for now) or she can just do her QCFt and put you in the loop all over again. And there's one thing that she can do that is just so cheap because it works both in stun or out of stun that puts you into the loop again but that also I will keep to myself. for now lol

I hate Rachael already. Went into the lab to see her frames, since my training partners are beating me pretty bad with her, and she has ~5(approximation from memory since not at home) unsafe moves out of ~72 moves........let that sink in......~5 unsafe moves! She can sort of be punished, but that is if you're playing Kasumi would you be able to do it reliably. Not to mention her speed and reach coupled with her above average damage. She is going to be a VERY hard character to deal with.

ALTHOUGH, I did notice that a lot of her moves leave her ~ -2 to -5. She can be grab punished if timed correctly. And a majority of her moves hit mid, so make those reads!

I think once people familiarize themselves with her moves she'll be easier to deal with. being that she's only shy of 80 moves & that most of her strings consist of mids I don't think she'll be a SUPER threat. but hey I'll submain the chick right next to Helena.
