A fellow taki player, ragnarok, is heading to CEO this weekend. I made this thread to get a consensus of the top ten things we as the taki community would like for him to test and get answers about. I'll get the ball rolling and then we can discuss/vote on the top options to submit to ragnarok.
 
  • does 3B really hit grounded?
  • best combos after 3B: A:6? 6KA 66K? 1A? FC 1A+B?
  • best combos after CH WS K: try 6BBB, try 3KKK
  • best combos after CH PO A: try 6BBB, try 3KKK
  • best combos after CH PO 2A: shouldn't WS K hit? then go into 6BBB or 3KKK?
  • is the full 3-hit 6BBB string NCC in soul charge
  • does WL A 6KA 66K work
  • is PO K safe?
  • can opponent crouch and punish after blocking first hit of 1BA?

Main things I want to test are....

lethal hit/combo potential of a:6

Combos off of CH PO a

Combos off of CH ws K

Conditions/damage for PO K attack throw (it was shown working after PO 2b lethal hit)

Combo potential off of wind roll k. Shown connecting off of 6bbb successful explosion into bt 8a+b. Possible maybe to land bt a+b for great oki.

Mess around in soul charge in general
 
- Does the floE combo work off of WL A?
- What combo's off of WL A?
- PO 8B into what? Does it combo into WS K?
- PO 8A cal traps and/or 44k into BT PO?
- BT PO B+K grab from SCIV?
- A+B A PO 8B like off of A+B bomb in SCIV?
- PO rush cancel? If so, BA PO/ BB PO rush cancel before opponent's 2A?
- PO hover cancel like Natsu and Taki had in previous Caliburs?
- Any options out of PO that beat 2A?
- PO sidestep?

sad. anyway from what I can see from the last few new videos (and remember):

- best dmg after CH WS K is 1BA PO 2_8A WS BB poison dart 6KK
- after WL A i only saw poison dart into 6KK (and WS BB?)
- 3KK on hit makes follow-up WR B uninterruptible
- if you end a combo in soul charge PO 6BA you can get 3KKK into more stuff for good dmg
- PO K (old 44K) looks pretty safe
- 6BBB is too slow to be used in any stun combos
- PO 2A CH only gives WS BB
- 3bK is a thing now, it’s like 3B cancelled into STK throw so you can always get it on CH
- lethal hit A:6 gives free 3bKor 1BA PO 6BA (but 3bK scales terribly, only for RO
- soul charge PO B chip damage is pretty funny
- ninja cannon looks unsafe.......... someone pls confirm.

I’m also a fan of the new long-range dart thing - it seems to be quite frame-neutral on block. but you’ll still need 66K to get in sometimes.

some technical expertise needed to get lethal hit A:6 consistently, but if you can she’s crazy.

(edited to reflect latest CH WS K combo)

Click to expand...

I'm starting to like her more and more with each passing vid, however a lot more testing still needs to be done. I heard she doesn't have PORC (Possession rush cancel) anymore! If that's the case, moves that beat out 2a inside of her PO are going to be vital. If there's anything that can ruin Taki it's 2A.

So happy to see her GI Demon Fangs are back, i've seen it from Wind Roll Side.
I wonder about the properties.
Also if Wind Roll in general is usable, Wind Roll BBB was always good damage, in the earlier Soul Caliburs.
Could get serious, when Soul Charged.
Is Wind Roll, BKB back?
 
Just Burning Misery?
:3::3:_:9::9::A:::B:::B:::B: Just Frame in SCIV.
She has :6::+::A::B::B::B: in Soul Calibur 6 if i'm informed correctly.

And what about :6::6::A::B::B:
And :B::6: both from SCII?
