Can’t you wind them into the Astral?

No, IIRC, Rachel is locked in her animation and can’t take any more actions.

Srry, didn’t make it more specific =/

Was thinking something like:

4D (4D) (4D) (4D) 222B

BTW: Feel stupid but what’s IIRC?

IIRC = if i recall correctly

The startup on the red beam is really, really slow, so, while the wind can push them towards you, the opponent will have tons of times to backstep before the astral even has any active hit frames.

rachel is a top tier confirm/deny

Confirmed, she’s #2 behind Nu on most lists.

Pretty much confirmed at this point. She can RTSD like no other. :looney:

Weird thing about her Astral is the timing for me. After a throw and they’re still on the ground, its really simple without trying. When both are just neutral and standing there, it’s just weird to get it out.

One more thing about Astral, she only become invincible after the red super flash.

when is the best time to hit the wind button (7+D) after throwing midscreen to hit the dash B into air combo? I got it a few times but not sure when the best time to press it is.

I grinded to level 4 with Rachel. On losses.

i tried one time online, didn’t like it really :\ too many just inputs in the game

i’d imagine rachel would be a pain to fight online though lol

Right after she slaps them.

k thanks, i got it now :slight_smile:

Very unique character, i like using the wind, it’s very interesting in moving stuff around and creating unique opportunities.

Question about anti air. I’ve seen f+A is used for this, but can only cancel into a special or standing B with it. Do people use the A+B+C to cancel out of this to do the combo from ground to air or is there a different ground to air that can be used?

this is the first time i have ever played these kind of fighters, im a sf player, but i was thinking about maining rachel, and i would love it someone who is experienced that has this game for the xbox 360 would like to show me the ropes, because for the life of me, i cant get this game down :sad:

^^ Rachel is pretty tough to learn.

I played it (a little) before the console release and I still suck. Like 56% win rate…

But if you want to add me I’ll be playing late tonight If I have time, just hit me up and we can chat. I just got a wireless headset and I can only get it to work 50% of the time so it may take awhile for me to respond :lol:

So, starting to get the hang of some of Rachel’s shit. I don’t have anything fancy yet, like the j.3d2c loops and such, shit is tough :tdown:

Jesus Christ my Rachel is rusty as hell. Since my copy hasn’t arrived yet, my friend and I played on his copy of the game; I didn’t get any time to practice Rachel stuff I’ve been meaning to.

Anyone want to spar with me on PSN as well? I dont know how to play at all, but very interested in Rachel.

I should get the game asap and beat fuckton of people before they learn how to play the game.
