    "[P][P][P] is great because you can go into Tachiai, but you have to be careful because experienced players will low punch you out of it before you can get anything to come out. Against those players, the best thing to do is backdash or sidestep WITHOUT going into Tachiai and do a low throw. (See 5th round of my match against this Sarah player)" - Reno

    I guess something to armor the [P][P][P] :)

    Unfortunately the problems you're having have only one solution. Practice. Online isn't the best environment for consistency, but with enough practice you'll learn the timing to buffer attacks.

    Taka's [4][P][+][K] is probably the best confirmable launcher going, especially online, as it's so easy to hitcheck. between that and Taka's Elbow you shouldn't really have problems stopping abare. try to use MIDs from advantage. PPP isn't the best use of your advantage if you never give the opponent a reason to block standing.

    66p is great too, if your outside of 6p range.

    i use this a lot, especially online because it's easy to space and input. the free ringouts it gives are a nice welcome too.
