Anyways, after playing me I'm a little curious in what you think of the Viola-Cerv MU. I personally think its 5-5.

Yeah, I'll be attending. It'll be my third Summer Jam. Eh. She's broken because of her ToD's and things like that. True, she's short range but she can still get in if she's being played smart (which I don't do lol). Meter isn't such a big deal because if you'll get it pretty quickly.

6B+K depends on hoe each person reacts to it. You could just do a 6B+K raw and then guard. Viola can also win without it. Can't underestimate 3B and 44A BE. Tbh, you're the first great Cervantes main I've ever played, so I have no idea what the MU is like lol. I'm pretty free to him.

Ahh I see. Hmm I think she needs 2 bars in order to do a 100% combo right? Well I'm basing it off of all the Violas Ive played. I've become very familiar with how to fight her. I'm even guilty of using her. But Cervantes is a character I know everything about, and theres tech that only I know about.

IMO, if you learn to react to 6B+K it could help a lot.
Having the ability to react to 2k/3B would definitely make viola a piece of cake.

Though the latter is pretty much impossible unless you're godlike.

It all boils down to how comfortable you get to fighting with her, just like every other character I guess. From that you can decide whether a character is broken or not.
I think she's broken in some aspects but I enjoy fighting against her more than any other character, I honestly don't know why.

Yeah you need 2 bars but with just half a bar she can do 133 damage off of a 50/50. Hope to learn something from your Cervantes.

Sure it could help but not for long. Like I said, Viola could do a raw 6B+K and then guard/just guard/guard impact anything you do and there goes that. She could also just do 6B+K whenever she's at advantage so that you can't interrupt her and you'll still have to take the mixup. I don't think it's possible to react to FC 2K and 3B lol.

That's like saying technically, in Tekken you should be able to react to an EWGF but it's not really something humanly possible.

That's where reacting to 6B+K with throws come in handy. They interrupt her 6B+K regardless if they break or not
WAIT, WHY AM I HELPING OUT VIOLA? /kappa

But yeah, there's pretty much nothing you can do to prepare for 6B+K pressure. It's a huge guessing game.

Yeah but she's not always going to be in grab range and the odds are is that she'll hit you first lol.

6B+K is basically a clusterfuck of 50/50s, mixups and reverse mixups.

I always just step 6 B+K when im out of throw range. 4 A BE is slow enough for me to react to or stop it with Cerv's 3K. What else does she have that kills step that does damage? I've been under 6 B+K pressure for a while, so im used to blocking it.

Her mix ups aren't that bad. Besides, I'm used to blocking/evading XF lvl 3 Vergils and Doom missiles. And even Hawkeyes without teleporters. That stuffs 1000x more annoying than Viola.
