It's called stop using 1b and pick a better mid lol

Nothing else is safe, and none of Sieg's other unsafe options do anywhere near that much damage. So for the job, it's technically the best mid. It's kind of like an unsafe, slow TAS B where you have to be at point blank instead of tip range to get the most damage. So basically it's not like TAS B at all, but you get what I'm saying. For mixing up with grabs, it's the best option Siegfried has, what with being so mid tier and all.

Besides, that shit is manly as hell.

Heaton: Use a less scrubby character, like Sophitia.

...ah ah ah

You know how scrubby your character is? Your character so scrubby, she ain't even makin' it to the next game!

 

[MONEYMUFFINS]

That's because she's busy having sex and passing on elite genes, while your character is an evolutionary failure still trying to use 1B effectively!

Yeah a major difference I noticed in Vincent's play at DEV and my play was that he never used TAS B, while I spam that shit. I spam them until they never duck, and then I spam grabs because they will always land.

And if my TAS B is blocked, big deal! Sophie's reverse mixup game is very strong. All I really need to do is stand or crouch guard. If you try a low or throw, Sophie will be able to punish you hard, even if you 2K. As for mids, your damage from mids better be safe or I'll punish that too. Often times though I go for a low GI since her post-GI is almost unparalleled. Post-blocked TAS B risk/reward obviously varies by the matchup, though.

I'm fine throwing myself into uncertain situations when I have the mathematical advantage (I like this term, more specific than "good risk/reward").

Spaced BB is really good too, though. It's completely risk free on block, while having a chance of a small reward. Spaced TAS B though? Broken damage on hit!

Sophitia is the scrubbiest character, make no mistake.
