Gameplay:Tsubaki Yayoi BBCS

From BlazBlue Wiki

Strategy

Tsubaki is a close range character with many attacks. Her attack variety is very large and she is very effective when she is close to an opponent. Many of her attacks can connect just by continuously hitting buttons, and the D form of her special attacks are enhanced versions. She is relatively easy to control, even for beginners. Her B and C attacks can be followed up with another B or C attack respectively. Her drive is Install. Holding down the D button will charge Tsubaki's Install gauge, the meter above her heat gauge. The Install gauge is divided into five sections, each representing a single charge. When you let go of D, the Install gauge will stop charging. Standing D will replenish her energy quickly, but can only charge up to one charge at a time. On the other hand, crouching D will charge slowly at first, but charges faster the longer it is performed, and will charge up to a maximum of 3 charges. Using the Install gauge, Tsubaki can perform the D version of her special attacks. These attacks are enhanced with the special properties and are worth using. However, they consume one charge of the Install gauge per use. Furthermore, some of her Distortion Drives attacks have varying effectiveness depending on how many charges in her Install gauge remains.

Next is Tsubaki's basic tactics. Learn how to use your spacing tools, how to use your anti-air attacks, and simple attack chains. Attack with a jumping C from the air or dash standing B on the ground to approach an opponent. After hitting your opponent with a standing B, follow up with a second B to continue to apply pressure. After Standing B ~ B, use the low hitting crouching B, and the high hitting →+A for a basic mixup. From crouching B, use another crouching B, and then use standing C. From →+A, you can also use standing C to continue your pressure. If your standing C after crouching B or →+A is still blocked, you can cancel standing C into any form of a D charge. Immediately let go of D to recover, then dash in to attack again. When attacking again, it's effective to use standing B as your first attack and continue to mix in different options and then cancel to D again. Because Tsubaki has so many varied blockstrings, mixing in throws is also effective. Furthermore, if you have more than one Install charge, you can mix in the D version of Sanctus Decus as well.
