I know most Trish players knows this setup by now, but seeing how this advanced setup is an important part of her game play, I thought it would be interesting to make a thread where we can discuss setups, tricks, shenanigans and whatnot. Besides, the Trish forums needs some love.
What is the Meaty Round Harvest Setup?
By doing her Round Harvest Hyper Move right after she knocks the opponent’s character down with j. :s:, they will be forced to block the boomerang super for as long as it lasts (approximately 3 seconds) when they are getting up. Unfortunately, because the Boomerang comes from Trish herself, she will be affected by the opponent’s Advancing Guard thus making her unable to apply more pressure. However, by tagging another one of her teammates during the Hyper Move (Raw tag or DHC), you will be able move freely and apply more pressure while they are still in blockstun from the boomerang since that new character you control is not affected by your opponen’t Advancing Guard! This trick gives you enough time to set up unblockables, mixups or deal insane amount of chip damage while your opponent is pinned down by Trish’s boomerang super.

Individual Setups
Some characters can set up their own unblockable setups or tricks during Trish’s super without the need of an assist.
[LIST]
[*]X-23 [Silent Kill] - By doing X-23’s level right after Trish’s Round Harvest super, you get a guaranteed level 3 hit since her’s completely unblockable. Like Shuma’s level 3 Hyper Move, you can get them in her level 3 while they are in blockstun.
[*]Shuma-Gorath [Chaos Dimesion] - Pretty much the same thing as X-23. Activate Level 3 Hyper as a DHC and get them in while they are blocking for good amount of damage.
[*]Hsien-Ko [Anki-On + Low] - As seen in DandyDLC’s video, Hsien-Ko can set up her own unblockable by throwing an item that hits High and hitting low with one of her normals. This set up can only work in the corners.
[*]Felicia [Kitty’s Helper + Low] - If you DHC Trish’s Round Harvest into Felicia’s Kitty Help Hyper in the corner, you can set up an unblockable by hitting low at the same time the Kitty assist hits high. It works best in the corner as, when done in midscreen, the Kitty assist takes too long to get to the opponent.
[*]C.Viper - [Focus Attack Lvl.3 + Assist] - This setup works best in the corner. During Round Harvest’s blockstun, charge C.Viper’s Focus Attack and call an assist that will pin your opponent down in even more blockstun even after the boomerang vanishes so that you Focus Attack land as an unblockable. Example of assists that works well with this setup are Doom’s Molecular Shield, Amaterasu’s Cold Star, Dante’s Jam Session or Dormammu’s Purification or Dark Hole. There are other assists that works well too - experiment.

Mixup Heavy Teammates
coming soon…
Discuss shenanigans, tricks and potential teammates for this particular setup. :karate:
), and I’ve had a really hard time catching the opponent in time after the raw tag. Problem is, when they advance guard, they still get pushed towards the corner, so I can’t land the setup in time because I’m not close enough (and yes, even if I wavedash with Sent).
