| Yuka but with all the good things shaved off. Tamao sadly is the Dan Hibiki to Yuka's Ryu, while not specifically slotted as a joke character or even the worse character in the game she noticeably has issues compared to Yuka, let alone the rest of the cast. She still works as some of her buttons are respectable and LK Kusenkyaku is a very good tool, but with a lack of good chains and combos she will need to work harder to perform. That said, if you want a more traditional, but weakened, shoto that has some funky tools like a laser beam and command grab, Tamao can still be played.
| | Filling the role of plucky admirer-turned-copycat-fighter, Tamao is the Shingo Yabuki to Yuka's Kyo Kusanagi -- but regrettably, with no critical hits. Tamao shares the general shoto design of Yuka, but more offensively oriented. She boasts some respectable buttons, some fun tricks thanks to {{Tooltip|text=LK Kusenkyaku|hovertext=214LK}} and {{Tooltip|text=Lightning Crash|hovertext=641236P}}, and some shockingly extensive combo game. Tamao's offensive strength may be powerful, but she tends to have a much larger execution barrier than the rest of the cast, with a reliance on quite a few links, including multiple 1f links, use of negative edge, and lengthly, precise combos which have tons of character specifics that you must memorize. Her defensive game is no joke either, with access to Moonwalking, she can retreat at full speeds and anti-air on reaction with ease. Additionally, if Tamao gains a decently sizable health lead, she can completely steal rounds using Zam Scam. If you like explosive hit-and-run characters and timer scams, Tamao is for you. |

| | intro = | | | intro = [[File:avg2 tamao mini.png|20px]] '''Tamao''' is a hit-and-run shoto who can back up her bag of tricks with solid metered options and explosive combos. |
| | pros = | | | pros = |
| * Simple shoto styled gameplan | | * '''Explosive Damage Output:''' Thanks to her impressive combo game, as well as her consistent metered options, Tamao can deal massive, and consistent damage. This is also helped by her quick meter building and powerful super routes. |
| * LK Kusenkyaku is a great pressure tool that can whiff into throw mixups | | * '''Solid Metered Options:''' Tamao can put her meter to good use, thanks to tools like the 0F reversal/juggle starter {{Tooltip|text=EX Soryugeki|hovertext=623PP}}, the consistent OTG and loop starter {{Tooltip|text=EX Kikoudan|hovertext=236PP}}, and the shockingly powerful {{Tooltip|text=Lightning Crash|hovertext=641236P}}, giving her plenty of opportunities to back up her gameplan. |
| * Lighting Crash is a great super that can easily chip kill the opponent | | * '''Movement:''' Tamao has a run instead of a dash, unlike the rest of the cast. This applies to her backdash, and even her tech, which causes some unique bugs that skyrocket her up the tier list if used correctly. {{Tooltip|text=Moonwalking|hovertext=Mashing foward while backdashing}} gives her the best movement in the game, and can be canceled into specials or supers. |
| | *'''Zam Scam:''' Caused by the same programming error that allows Moonwalking, Tamao can ground-tech infinitely by mashing run in the direction of the opponent during a tech. This makes her invincible and allows her to steal entire rounds with a health lead, giving her a true win condition. |
| | cons = | | | cons = |
| * Middling normals and lack of good ground chains | | * '''Janky Hitboxes:''' Most of Tamao's most powerful and important buttons like 5LP, 5HP, and even some specials like 214LK that are cornerstones of her offense can whiff in certain match-ups. Ayako, Satomi, & Tamao herself are all very prone to causing whiffed buttons, so be careful. |
| * Significantly worse fireball and DP compared to Yuka | | * '''Reversals:''' While 623PP seems strong on paper, it causes a lot of forward movement. Helpful for combos, but causes her to lose a lot of reversal situations that other characters like Yuka wouldn't. Expect to be jumped over often when using it. |
| * Not particularly good damage | | * '''Weak Fullscreen Presence:''' Tamao lacks much in the way of fullscreen presence, which forces her to either wait for the opponent to approach, or to approach herself. This hurts her match-ups against more defensive characters, namely Satomi & Ayako. Thankfully this is helped by Moonwalking and Zam Scam which incentivize opponents to be aggressive. |

If this move hits normally the 3rd kick will knockdown and the face slide will whiff, but if the opponent isn't ready for the 4th hit (still a mid, so it's not a mixup) or if all the kicks whiff before the face slide hits (nearly impossible as you would have to do this at nearly full screen) the opponent is launched in the air for a combo. Absolutely hilarious, but it will almost never hit.

Tamao is a hit-and-run shoto who can back up her bag of tricks with solid metered options and explosive combos.
