[Match up Discussion] Bartz

[Balguna]

And why would squall being using rough divide without using a assist combo against bartz?

Fire Barret mindgames, dodge prediction, forcing dodges, etc.

Against holy? You have to do strick timing but if your gonna do fire barret that much your gonna get assist punished. I think assist punishing holy is better if your squall. RD is too risky to use after FB even of your careful if bartz isn't spamming holy

Unless someone use Auto Assist Lock-On.

If you time it right then you can still punish holy (tidus/jecht assist).

*strict *you're

anyway, fire barret is about as assist punishable as sf, maybe slightly more. If you're only throwing it out for time to time you shouldn't get punished. Holy is still assist punishable with auto assist lock on, you don't need tidus or jecht assist. It would probably make it easier than it already is though.

Well yea fb is alot easier to assist punish. Besides the squalls i see who dont come up to you generally stay at a distance just to do fb also I'm saying jecht and tidus to be on the safe side and I'm talking about
Someone who is using it more often than they should (not nessicarily spamming)

Abuse Omni Dash and Holy, or Slide Shooter.

Bartz doesn't really have that many options since Blade Crash loses out to those moves, so either you have to learn to block them more effectively or use Bartz's slightly better range game. Squall can still mess you up with Rough Divide, though.

I'll keep that in mind then. Thank you.

Soul told me you were good at blocking so why are you worried about squall zidane etc?

Because they have super fast attacks and are good at punishing dodges? ;3 It's very hard to block Beat Fang or Swift Attack on reaction, even for good blockers. You just have to predict and hope you don't get punished for it.
