Sand Splash changes are huge, and more than makes up for Toy Touch nerf imo.
So we can probably Sand Splash OTG Hyper cancel into Dancing Flash much like Hulk does with Gamma Wave or whatever.
What does “Decreased total frames” mean? Quicker start-up? Less recovery? Bit of both?
As long as it’s not the active frames it’s a good buff.
So…her Sand Splash assist can OTG now? This is huge.
i 'm thinking a lot of mixes with air delta kick
You could probably continue a combo from an OTG Sand Splash with the right assists. Besides her Toy Touch nerf, I really love her changes.
Perhaps her Sand Splash assist could be helpful this time around? If so, it might be better than Rolling Buckler Slide, and it can help continue combos as well. :3
Rolling Buckler would still have good use for those that want a low hitting assist.
I wonder if you can begin a Sand Splash charge while descending from an air combo? Will have to test that when I get home…
Don’t see why you couldn’t be charging in the air, seems like an odd rule to put in.
The thought of Felicia having an OTG assist never even crossed my mind. I wonder if it’ll be fast enough, hopefully the decreased total frames will enable it.
If the OTG assist is as fast as Viper’s that should be solid enough.
Yepee a Felicia Team making it to top 8 and killing combofiend’s team.
Sand Splash changes are great. One of her most under appreciated specials imo.
Decreased total frames on Kitty Helper = faster recovery, something that she really needed. I wonder if this means…
c.LM,b+H (2) xx qcf+MM, s.LM,df+M /\ j.MHS, land, MS /\ sj.MMH xx rdp+H, land, S /\ j.S, land, df+M xx tk DP+L XX Kitty Helper
…would be possible. Cat Spike L isn’t affected by hit stun deterioration. Of course the combo can be adjusted unless the reduced tech time is that huge.

Gonna be playing vs. Meep’s X-23/Dante/Akuma in a FT5 single elimination tournament at Xanadu. DjHuoshen will be back also playing against FourthStar (who was rather salty after losing money match to DjHuo). I’m not really too confident in Dante first vs. X-23 with XF1 level 3 setups but we’ll see how it goes.
Starts at 8PM EST.
Haven’t had access to ultimate yet, but I suspect that this will work as a BnB ender:
:s::uf:
:h::s:Hold 
:atk::atk:,*:df::h:,:qcf::atk::atk:
Aircombo, Backdash, Heavy (or medium?) Sand Splash, Dancing Flash.
(* Have to go to :df: and not :f: or you get Kitty Helper afterwards instead
(Edit: It works in old MVC3 if you use an OTG assist to pop the opponent into the Sand Splash, so I’m guessing it’ll work assistless in Ultimate)
Ultimate Norcal vs Capcom 2 tonight! I am gonna try and apply all of her new changes into combos, so wish me luck! 
Was thinking to myself…
c.L-c.M-b+H (2) xx Cat Spike M, b+H (2) qcf+H-M, L-M-b+H(2)-S->JC, sj.M-H-S, land, d/f+M->JC, j.M-M-H-S xx Air Delta Kick H, land, Cat Spike L xx Dancing Flash
I don’t think that even works ATM up to the point of the Air Delta Kick, way too many hits before the Toy Touch.
Good luck Crispy!
So wait, if Sand Splash OTGs, the assist version must as well. Wonder if it can be followed up…
Crispy, were you able to test much with the Sand Splash OTG? Does the assist OTG as well?
Sad to say that the Sand Splash OTG has scaling in combos just like Toy Touch. I wasn’t able to pull off the Dancing Flash cancel afterwards because of combo scaling. That is of course if you haven’t used ADK or doing a long, fancy combo lol. It does make for an excellent reset tool (so does everything else she has XD), and the assist version isn’t as great as gunshot, but it does help out those characters that do not have an OTG move.
