Hey guys, EmeryReigns here, some of you may know me as Rojikku previously. Here are my notes that I gathered during the beta while using Hayate
A few things that I do want to point out:
236t is going to be DANGEROUS. Because Hayate can feint into launcher out of 6p, this is going to be a MUST HOLD situation. Because Hayate can launch with the feint kick, they must hold it. You can mix this up with Break blow, fatal rush, and much more!
Since there is no stagger escape in this game, using p+k instead of 8p as Hayate's launch is going to be the go-to. This is because you get a slide-away launch which can be followed up with a bnb combo, fatal rush or a breakblow. 8p keeps Hayate back turned, and as a result, he does not get the ability to use fatal rush or break blow. Also, the bnb combo out of p+k does more damage than the bnb combo from stun > 8p.
This thread will be updated once the game releases.
