| Freeflow Strikes (or "Rekkas") are forward-moving strikes that can be confirmed into optional follow-ups. Higher strength versions move farther but have slower startup, with the OD version gaining both speed and longer range. At Drink Lv.0 to Lv.3, each Rekka is a single hit, and only the first part of the sequence can cancel into Super. If well-spaced, the first meterless Freeflow Strike is often safe; the LP version is usually the best for this since it has less forward movement, but this can also cause it to whiff in max range cancels. The OD version is always safe. | | Freeflow Strikes (or "Rekkas") are forward-moving strikes that can be confirmed into optional follow-ups.

| When attempting to confirm into the 6P or 6K follow-ups on hit, it's important to note that the follow-up speed depends on the strength of the first Rekka. Delaying the confirm too long, especially on HP Rekka, can cause the follow-up to come out without comboing. The 6K follow-up is slightly slower than 6P, which also makes the confirm slightly stricter. OD Rekka canceled into {{clr|10|SA2}} is a great option on hit or block, leading to great combos or block pressure from a mid-range poke. | | When attempting to confirm into the 6P or 6K follow-ups on hit, it's important to note that the follow-up speed depends on the strength of the first Rekka.

| At max Drink Level, Freeflow Strikes becomes a 2-hit attack, gaining additional damage and making it much easier to confirm follow-ups or Super. It also becomes safe on block for all versions, giving Jamie a great confirmable pressure tool from mid-range. In some juggle routes, it becomes harder to combo into the 6K follow-ups due to the extra pushback, so the 6P follow-ups are recommended for more consistency. | | At max Drink Level, Freeflow Strikes becomes a 2-hit attack, gaining additional damage and making it much easier to confirm follow-ups or Super.

| The Punch follow-ups are the preferred route for damage, juggles, and oki; they can be performed on hit, block, or whiff. The LP, MP, and OD Rekka starters require a manual delay to create a blockstring gap, while HP Rekka can automatically frame trap with a 3f gap at the fastest timing. While risky, this frame trap can be used against an opponent that tries to punish your first Rekka on block. On hit, stopping after the first 6P puts Jamie at a slight disadvantage; an unaware opponent may be caught off guard with a quick throw reset, but attempting this is sacrificing guaranteed damage and a knockdown. | | The Punch follow-ups are the preferred route for damage, juggles, and oki; they can be performed on hit, block, or whiff.

| The Punch follow-ups are the preferred route for damage, juggles, and oki; they can be performed on hit, block, or whiff. Like the initial Rekka, this follow-up is 2 hits when at max Drink Level. All strengths of Rekka lead to the same 2-7f gap between hits on block, which can be used to frame trap the opponent. However, this frame gap is not very useful for two reasons: the initial Rekka is safe (meaning the opponent is less likely to hit a button while attempting a punish), and a Counter-hit does not give Jamie the bonus frame advantage when both hits of the follow-up connect. | | The Punch follow-ups are the preferred route for damage, juggles, and oki; they can be performed on hit, block, or whiff.

| The final 6P follow-up completes the Punch sequence. It can be done on hit, block, or whiff and has juggle potential. This sequence gets no oki midscreen if the opponent back rises, but it has good corner carry and is Jamie's most consistent combo ender. Like the first 6P follow-up, there is a blockstring gap between the final 2 hits that varies based on the button timing, but this is a very unsafe gimmick for beating the opponent's attempted Rekka punish. | | The final 6P follow-up completes the Punch sequence.

| The final 6K follow-up, like its predecessor, can only come out on hit or block. If successful, it levels up Jamie's Drink Level by 1. Because Rekkas are so easy to confirm into, this move is the primary way to level up. The meterless versions leave Jamie at a slight disadvantage after knockdown, making it slightly risky to use in the corner; to avoid this risk, use the OD version to give Jamie slightly more KD advantage. | | The final 6K follow-up, like its predecessor, can only come out on hit or block.

| The long drink animation makes the 6K ender extremely unsafe on block. The drink itself is interruptible, and any punish within the first 21f will stop Jamie's drink level from increasing (20f for the LP version). Like the other Rekka follow-ups, it is possible to frame trap the opponent if they attempt a punish. The exact blockstring gap can change depending on the button timing. | | The long drink animation makes the 6K ender extremely unsafe on block.

| The transition from DL3 to DL4 gives Jamie much better KD advantage on the knockdown. Because of this, there is no need to use the OD version for a safe corner drink. As usual when taking a drink during DL4, Jamie restores 1 Drive bar instead of gaining a Drink Level. DL4 Jamie gets far more damage and corner carry from his Punch Rekkas, but this may be a good option if approaching Burnout; the OD version also benefits from getting an immediate 50% meter refund. | | The transition from DL3 to DL4 gives Jamie much better KD advantage on the knockdown.
