Did you try jumping and then immediately using wind to propel you towards her? I'm guessing you can go over her 5D like that, and the wind will take you to her so fast she'll still be recovering from a D move and you can get a free combo (which means half of her life gone, probably  ). | ||

I'm guessing you can go over her 5D like that, and the wind will take you to her so fast she'll still be recovering from a D move and you can get a free combo (which means half of her life gone, probably ).It's not exactly a reliable approach method though; you either fly too high and end up getting to her when nu has recovered and is ready to AA you or just leave the area, or you angle perfectly into her 6D. Maybe if you're within half a screen of nu you could get there "so fast" but otherwise it doesn't really happen like that very often against a competent nu. Plus nu should probably be doing more 6Ds against Rachel since Rachel is too slow on the ground to really threaten running under a 6D and punishing, and Rachel is too big/floaty to really deal with 6D. One interesting approach I've seen was jumping when you anticipate a 5D, then air pumpkin and wind it towards nu- moves you in a bit and gives you a pumpkin to try to force your way in further. Again, gets stuffed by 6D but it's there. Other ideas: - IB 5DD and then IAD, which avoids a 4DD followup and gets you closer (though not necessarily in punish range). Loses to 5DD 6DD which Rachel can't do a lot about, tbh. - fish for 236 trade against 5D, which does a bit more damage to nu than it does to Rachel and gives you a pole right where nu is. Rachel just has to be patient tbh. Learn to IB sword patterns, poke at the nu player's zoning habits. If the nu is at all smart, you have to be smarter is all. nu is too strong and Rachel is too floaty/slow for there to be a cut-and-dry approach. | ||

Also posting to say that noel's corner 6c loop is stupidly fun to do no matter how little damage it does :D yeah, that would be great. I need all the practice I can get against Nu. and thanks for the tips. I'll go in training mode and try IB against sword patterns and test some follow up stuff | ||
