Advanced V.G. 2/Tamao

Introduction

Tamao learned to fight by trying to copy Yuka really hard until it somehow started working. She's not sure how that works either, but you don't see her complaining.

Yuka but with all the good things shaved off.

Movelist

st.

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
9	Mid	5	-	-	-+2
A quick uppercut, a solid enough jab and chains into most of her other normals.

---

st.

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
13	Mid	5	-	-	-+2
A low shin kick, looks like a standing low but is still mid. With primarily the same frame data and range as stLP, stLK may seem like a better option but it has no chain routes.

---

st.

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
28	Mid	3	-	-	--3
A particularly good lunging punch, with 3f startup and being only -3 on block you will get a lot of mileage out of this poke. It can chain into both stHK and crHK but will not combo, being more of a frame trap.

---

st.

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
32	Mid	10	-	-	--7
A beefy step-in high kick, great range and decent enough frame data. You will get more use from stHP but stHK does go a little further.

Running

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
37	Mid	6	-	-	--39~0
Tamao does her best Sasquatch impression by leaping through the air head first to conk the opponent with her noggin. This attack actually has a secondary hitbox if she misses, as she will slide forward on her face after she land, which is still part of the attack. Bless her heart, she's trying her best.

Special Moves

Kikoudan

+

Version	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
	26	Mid	15	-	-	--6
Tamao's attempt at Yuka's fireball, tragically she cannot make it powerful enough to travel the entire distance of the screen. Thankfully this is not a Dan Hibiki-level fireball, so it does go far enough to actually be useful, it just wont zone from full screen.
	28	Mid		-17	-	--6
With the power of a extra couple frames of concetration, Tamao is able to make her fireball travel a bit further.
	28 (3x)	Mid	1	-	-	--4

Kusenkyaku

+

Version	Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
	28	Mid	10	-	-	--4
Almost exactly like Dan Hibiki's replacement tatsu, the LK version of Kusenkyaku is a snappy leaping kick that is mostly safe on block (a 0f super will catch it) and knocks down on hit. One of Tamao's better tools in terms of both effectiveness and safety.
	25 (3x)	Mid	10	-	-	--16
While no longer anywhere near as safe as the LK version, HK Kusenkyaku is a three hit series of kicks that works best as a combo confirm tool.

Pokopoko Midare Uchi

+

Damage	Guard	Startup	Active	Recovery	FrameAdv
-	N/A		-	-	-
Tamao's command grab, she mounts the opponent's shoulders and starts raining down fists on their head. A very helpful addition to her kit, especially since her command grab has no whiff animation and she has no overlapping special that will come out if it misses.
