--------------------------------------------
PLAYBOOK - Putting it all together!
--------------------------------------------
-Important pokes-
Horizontal:

- AA		- good ol'/jails

- 4[A]		- good range/MST [B] combo on hit
			- test if they punish MST BBBB (-16)
			- MST [B] is GREAT because of side turn
			- RLC B beats i10/cant be stepped!
			- close block: clash i10 with MST B
			- far block: B+K~RLC fairly safe

- bA		- M/-20/-10
			- combine with 4A/4KB for good coverage
			- test if opponent punishes
			- punish will be meter/char dependent
			- (SC) more dmg on hit

- 3A		- M/-8/+2/range 0 antistep/CH CE option

- 66AA		- -8/+8/safe, good general poke

- 44A		- M/Relic option at ranges 1 and 2
			- RLC B steppable on 4A hit
			- RLC A beats i10

- MST A		- -4/KND/H/excellent range

Vertical:

- BB		- good ol'
			- MST option
			- MST [B] can be stepped/ducked

- 6BB		- forced MST/NC into MST [B]
			- test if they step RLC B here

			- close block: beat i12 with MST B options
			- can beat 2A/5A with MST KB
		 	  - little reward if it doesn't CH
			- far block: B+K~RLC fairly safe
			- 6B[B] forces far scenario

- 3B		- go for the lethal!

- 2B		- Mid/slightly longer than 5B

- 1B,A+B	- use if you see RE!
			- forced RLC
			- combo on hit
		 	  - on block:
		 	  - i12 (2A) can stuff the A+B after 1B
		 	  - i10 can stuff RLC A after A+B
		 		- i10 will whiff if you take no action
		 	  - slightly delay a 6G to beat buttons
		 	  - test them with RLC B (step/button)

- 4KB		- Mid Mid/safe
			- 2nd hit steppable/GI-able
			- wallsplat/RO tool

- 6A+B		- 60 dmg on clean hit, but -16 on block

- 66[B]		- RLC A easily stuffed here
			- 6G mixup

- 22B		- Mid/-10 force crouch/whiff punish tool
			- ghetto mixup with 22K (Low/-18)
			- (SC) -> 22BB also -10/MUCH better combos
		 	  - 2nd hit GI-able

- 44B[A]	- NC into MST [B]
			- test if they step RLC B here
			- doesn't jail! look for the ducks
			- close block: beat i10 with MST B
			- far block: B+K~RLC fairly safe

			- also has BAB and BA,bG~RLC options

- 66K		- Mid/-10/wallsplat!

- 236 B		- Mid/-16 at range
			- [B] to charge: -2 instead!
			- Wallsplat/RO
			- charged: great mid at ring edge/wall

- kB		- Mid Mid/-16/combo toll
			- (SC) +4 force crouch instead!
		 	  - 3A or BB for CH

Useful Lows:

- 1A		- skill check low
			- mix with 1AB if they pass

- 1BB		- NC from a low
			- Mitsu is crouched at -10 on hit!
		 	  - Geralt can PUNISH ON HIT with 8A+B!
			- possible WS options, but risky
			- can wallsplat/RO, negating the weakness
			- use 1BB at the wall!

- 1KB		- NC from a low
			- -14 on hit without MST cancel
			- therefore, ALWAYS MST cancel
			- on hit: safe at mid range
			- at wall: can't beat i10 or i12
			- use 1KB mid stage!

- 236[K]	- simple mixup with 236 B
			- on block: can 6G everything
			- on hit: RLC AA beats i10
		 	  - RLC B beats i12
		 	  - use RLC B or B+K if they block

Other:

- BT B+K	- fastest back-turned move

- 1BB as a combo ender
 - advantage depends on the wakeup action of the defender. Mitsu is USUALLY at disadvantage. If the opponent ukemis UP or DOWN, Mitsu is in a better position.
-----
Post-GI mixup

1) immediate attack vs level 3 GI
2) immediate attack vs level 2 GI
2) predict a re-GI
3) other useful options?

1) 3B
2) BB~MST option
3) A+B for lethal hit
4) run counter 3A/CE combo
-----
Punishment

i12 - AA
i14 - BB
