[SIZE=5][B]Top 10 Moves[/B][/SIZE]

[LIST=1]
[*]:P::+::K:
Bass' fastest strike and beats most high trades from frame advantage. Unfortunately, it's a single strike and is unsafe, but causes a stun on hit with unstaggerable followups. Good for using at small advantage.
[*]:6::K:
Fastest mid and counts as an elbow class attack. Has mid and low followups, one which causes a hard knockdown and a low which stuns. All hits are unsafe, but the strings can be reasonably delayed and the knee alone is good enough on its own and stops moves with mid crush properties.
[*]:3::K:
Mid range poke with good followups and great for stopping people from couching.
[*]:6::P:
Second fastest mid and tracks with good followups and benefits from safety. On counter hit, it gives a good stun to hit confirm into the followups for a mixup.
[*]:3::3::P:
Primary launcher and great whiff punisher. Has another mid followup with frame advantage. The full :3::3::P::P: on the wall gives a guaranteed ground pickup.
[*]:6::6::P::+::K:
Mid long range get-in and whiff punisher with very good application on block and hit. Can give frame advantage on block from good distance and forces people to tech or else they'll be picked off the floor with a ground throw. Downside is that it's linear and punishable from a side step.
[*]:214::P:
Great mid guard break with full tracking and good application as a mid range launcher. On hit, this gives good damage and on block, it give good advantage. It's a bit slow on the start-up, but the reward is worth it. It's one of the most damage max threshold launchers he has.

[*]:1::P:
Due to being slow and having a risky low OH, Bass ends up with the slowest lows in the game, but this moves gives great advantage on hit and avoid highs. It's easy to force people into simple nitaku situations with this move. Not a fast move, but it's not easy to see and can be mixed with :6::6::P: due similarity in the animations.
[*]:6::6::K:
Good keep out move and decent for transitioning into back facing position for using mixups from those positions.
[*]:6::h::+::K:
Safe mid range drop kick that avoids lows. This move and :h::+::K: are both great low crush moves, but :6::h::+::K: ends up being more useful due to giving a hard knockdown for a free ground throw, so it ends up being good for starting and offense.

[SIZE=5][B]Attacks[/B][/SIZE]

[B]P[/B]

:P:
Basic jab with different string transitions. :P::P: is a natural combo and :P::K: is a counter hit combo with possibility of a Sit Down Stun on a crouching opponent with guaranteed followup. The :P::P: string followups range from decent to average with :P::P::K: being good for gaining some needed frame advantage to stopping disruptions while the mid and low followups are decent for adding variation but are prone to quick low pokes. :P::P: itself has very good recovery and can be used in tick throw setups. :P::K: should be used more than :P::P: due to the transition and that it's a tracking string.

:6::P:
Second fastest mid at 15i with tracking and two followups. :6::P::P: is safe while :6::P::K: is very punishable, but is rewarding on hit and is good combo starter. :6::P: is great for stopping evades and has very good hit stun on counter hit or on a crouching opponent. On its own it's negative on both block and normal hit, but it safe in both situations.

:3::P:
Stuns on hit and is semi-safe against non-grapplers. The lift stun is good for closing stagger escape options and also acts as an extender in juggles.

:2::P:
Slowest generic :2::P: in the game but is his second fastest low, negative on normal hit and with a high followup. This can be used in different situations, mostly for counter hit situations where you can go for attempt to combo the low into the high. Crushes highs instantly, so it's very useful for catching an opponent mid string or with a counter hit.

:1::P:
A low tracking low which stuns on hit, enough to force a mixup on an opponent. Has two followups though the mid is reactable and the high is not reliable. Normally, you're better off using this move on its own rather that trying to use the followups.

:4::P:
Another tracking mid and is part of two strings: :4::P::P::P: and :4::P::P::P::+::K:. The mid ender is a tracking guard break with very good plus frames at +6 and the high which causes critical stun on hit. Not actually very useful, so you might never end up using this.

:7::P:
Another underwhelming move with average followups. Main reason is that it starts off of a slow linear high. It benefits from good safety on block at -2 and good stun on hit, but it's really not worth using normally.

:8::P:
An unsafe true mid that causes a hard knockdown on counter or hi-counter hit, giving you a free ground throw. Not very useful outside certain situations or against certain characters like Helena which stances or moves that require vertical mids to keep her in check.

:9::P:
A high strike with good range with some decent followup:
[LIST]
[*]:9::P::P: (High, mid) causes a sit down stun with the second hit and is mostly used on a back-turned opponent after the back facing offensive hold on counter or hi-counter to guarantee a big combo, mainly because it's a natural combo a back turned opponent.
[*]:9::P::9::K: (High, high) is mainly a DOA4 leftover which is meant to be a safe string but ends up being never used.
[*]:9::P::K::P: (High, mid, mid) is mainly used in wall combos after a wall splat for very good damage. Not often used normally outside of juggles. The string ender is the same as :6::6::P:.
[*]:9::P::K::2::P: (High, mid, low) is similar to the above string with the exception of having a low ender similar to :1::P:.
[/LIST]

:6::6::P:
Slow but safe tracking mid with good hit box capable of shutting down many money with mid-crush capabilities. After a ground getup, anything other than a hold or standing guard with be beaten by this move.

:3::3::P:
Primary mid launcher with aid follow up that causes a +5 guard break. The launcher by itself is unsafe and punishable but the followup is used to deter throw punishment attempts. Very good whiff punishment.

:2::P:
His second fastest low and unlike regular :2::P:s, it's unsafe on normal hit but has a high followup which can be comboed into on counter hit or higher. Long delay between the two hits.

:1::P:
Slow tracking low with loads of plus frames on hit and good setup for nituakus. Has two followup:
[LIST]
[*]:1::P::P: is a safe mid followup which has a short hold window on hit, but is still prone to holds.
[*]:1::P::+::K: is a high followup which is frankly useless in general.
[/LIST]
:4::4::P:
A slow backhand mid attack that's mostly used to catch an opponent in counter hit situations to cause a crumple gut stun or limbo stun, depending on stance. It's unsafe, but it's also very rewarding.

:236::P:
A slow high guard break which gives +4 and also acts as a hit throw. On hit, it's also causes a good stun with possible unstaggerable followups. Does very little damage on it's own however, but the throw adds to the overall damage.

:214::P:
This move can be pretty scary because of the many great properties. It's rather slow, but it's a tracking guard break move with great range and is also a launcher.

:4::6::P:
A painfully slow double axe handle attack that is safe. This is way too slow to act as anything useful, so completely ignore this.

[B]K[/B]
:K:
A quick high kick with guard break properties and does considerable amount of damage on hit.

:6::K:
Fastest mid and counts as an elbow class move and is unsafe on its own. It comes with two different followups:
[LIST]
[*]:6::K::P: this string on it's own can combo on hit and the opponents to react quickly to hold. It can cause a hard knockdown for a ground throw. The followup is pu is ha let on hit.
[*]:6::K::K: the kick followup is a low which causes a short stun on hit. Not that useful in general.

[/LIST]
:3::K:
A quick poke with decent range, slightly slower than :6::K: and causes a sit down stun on a crouching opponent, making :3::3::P: guaranteed. This is best used in mid range situations on its own and has two followups:
[LIST]
[*]:3::k::K: (mid, high) a quick transition to a high which cannot be interrupted and can catch people off guard who may be too used to you using :3::K: alone. It's a fairly safe move and leaves your at -4.
[*]:3::K::P: (mid, mid) a slower punch transition which can be interrupted between hits but is safer than :3::k::K: and can lead to abare (attack from disadvantage) situations since it's -2 and has deceptive recovery.
[/LIST]

:2::K:
Fastest low and mostly used for interrupting or causing a trip stun during critical stun situations, though it gives nothing guaranteed if quickly staggered out of. You can usually throw out mids like :3::K: or :6::p::k: if you want to launch after a trip.

:1::K:
A low with a mid :p: followup that causes a lift stun. The best use of this move is in counter hit situations on slippery surfaces (water, ice, etc.) which can give guaranteed followups and combos for good damage.

:7::K:
A mid kick launcher which avoid wall splat and gives good launch height. Pretty unsafe though, so it's generally not a great idea to use outside of stun situations.

:8::k:
High launcher that is more used on stunned opponents and it's horribly unsafe and can also be a good combo extender. 

:7::K:
A safe Ranged high kick which knocks down on hit. It's not particularly useful, so ends up not getting used much by anyone. It could act as a decent whiff punisher, but he has better moves for those situations.

:6::6::K:
A mid kick guard break which leaves you in the back facing position. This gives access to tools from BT and also is good at acting as a keep out strike.


[B]P+K[/B]
:p::+::K:
Fastest high strike at 12i and always stuns on hit. This is mostly used as a disruption tool and ends up being the primary high move to use in most cases.

:6::P::+::K:


[B]H+K[/B]
:h::+::K:
