Tiamat
[11] Champion
Having watched the Keev vs Saitoh, I would say Keev's normal defensive style of play worked against him. Saitoh did very well. I still have some ideas for that matchup but I think it's still Asta favor...we should talk about it on aim lau
as for Schneider, I would say mostly what the others did. you missed some free WS B for blocked lows and also mitsu bA (i think that's the command?). also need to do that 66B combo to 33B or something else when out of A+K range.
main thing though is need to work on your evasion tactics. small disadvantage moves on block like 66B/66A/11K, and small disadvantage on hit like normal hit 1K and 11B, you really gotta start stepping afterward, and sometimes B+K or bA as well. gotta use your evasion ability
also I saw 1[A]6 blocked into GS KK once, which you should NEVER EVER do, since GS B basically better in every way in that situation
I like that you broke throws well and used good mixups in general. good to see you using the GI into A+K staple. good job at tournament :)
