didn't get a workout in because of work stuff, but i did get to play some xrd with uppercat and it was a most excellent time. let myself have some lab time afterwards as a treat.
working with mid-level players like her is so fun. she's very good at internalizing advice and acting on it, which works very well for the "do this not that" style of coaching that is common in fighting games. it also works really well for "think about this situation like this instead of like that". she's gotten very good at a narrow chunk of the game, so now she has to go a bit broader and learn how other characters think of the game differently.
practiced IBing a Raven string, backdashing gap between 2H and scratch, and YRCing it into alpha blade for a combo. most likely going to have to play babbaloo or takeahnase in WF/GF at Tag-In Battle and want to be ready. might use Jam for a bit too.
