I'm currently testing stuff out against Yoda finally. And I felt this deserved it's own thread because of how crazy this matchup is for Talim, at least strategically. I haven't tested out much on anti-Yoda as of yet, but what I can say is that Talim's combos, and RO pressure both suffer hard against him. I'm sure the limited combos thing applies to every character, but since Talim needs her CH combos to rack up damage and create mixups, this really becomes an issue.
Combos that won't work against him:
- 66A~6, AS A (66A is a high and whiffs overhead)
- CH 4BB (2nd B whiffs overhead)
- CH 11KA (Causes KND so the A *high* whiffs.)
- 236B, 66B, 2A+B/44B (236B doesn't launch high enough)
- 22B, AS B:K (AS B whiffs overhead)
(strangely 22B launches him higher than 236B even though 236B is made to be a super launch...)
- IWC (Range Dependent. If hit on an angle, or in close range it works. Farther out the 1st part doesn't fully connect, allowing Yoda to block the rest.)
- BT B, 3B[A]~2_8, WC B:B, AAB (staple BT B combo won't work. 3B hits but the A whiffs. Useful for tech traps I suppose. You must do 3B as early as possible or it whiffs)
Stance Combos that won't work:
- WL K, anything (Range Dependent, 2nd kick whiffs in close if 1st kick connects. No launch. No combo/RO/wallsplat. Nothing.)
- AS B+K~6, AS A+B (AS A+B whiffs overhead for the first hit.)
- AS A~2_8, WC AA (WC AA is a high and whiffs overhead)
Other notes:
- 11KA does work on NH, but it's range dependent. If 11K hits at far/tip range the A *high* whiffs. Otherwise this works.
- 33A on NH or CH always gives the shakeable stun effect against standing Yoda. Never knocks down.
- BT A will hit him standing even though it's a high. (Only whiffs at really close range)
- 44AA will hit him standing even though it's a high. (Thank God we have at least one of her fast options post-GI)

Also note that 44A, 1A, WC A+K, and FC 3B now break in 14 instead of 20
I will update this as more things are found. But if anyone else has any Yoda experience feel free to discuss.
