Anywhere:
1. A/C(Buffer:hcb+A/C), hcb f+P(Buffer:f+P) - 25%/33%
2. A(Buffer:hcb+A), df+C, hcbx2+P(Buffer:hcb+P) - 45%
3. Crouch D, qcf+B(whiff), hcf+C - 25%

Corner:
1. Crouch D, df+C(whiff)/qcf+B(whiff), dp+A, hcf+C - 40% (Can be recovery rolled after the crouch D)

Move Properties:
-cancellable normals are close A, far A, crouch A, close B, far B, close C, close D, crouch D
-CD is cancellable into specials and DMs
-hcfx2+K/BD and dp rdp+BC have autoguard
-Goro is invincible during qcb+K, and cannot be thrown

Strategies:
-He has two excellent pokes, far B and far D. Far B hits low and reaches about half a screen away. Far D hits high, but will regularly anti-air and has massive priority and excellent damage. Daimon's basic mixup is just using these two moves. Though toned down from 98 with less priority, they are still quite abusable
-the rest of Daimon's game comes from punishing the opponent, and taking advantage of his conservativeness. dp+B is the quicker of his command throws, while hcbf+P has more range
-his df+C is an excellent anti-air as it is very quick and reaches relatively high into the air. Use this if the opponent is not in range to be anti-aired from a far D
-hcfx2+K has a huge amount of autoguard frames. This can be used in the corner to screw the opponent for the most part. If the opponent attempts to jump out of the super, Goro will recover first and have an opportunity to anti-air with df+C or hcf+A
-Don't use hcbf+K ever.

His oldschool tremor combo says it works in practice mode, but actually doesn't.
