I like shorthop fair Bullet Arts much better than using her grounded BA options. If you learn the timing and do it consistently, you can rack on a good 10-15% per stock with the the use of it. It's reminiscent of SHDL, tbh. Frustrates opponents, pressures approach, and Bayo can take control of those situations because of its transcendence and lack of lag.
We need different abbreviations for Witch Twist and Witch Time lmao, I always get momentarily confused
Well...
She has so many custom BnB's that they're hard to name.
Fair enough. However, I feel that bullet climax is better when grounded because it does far more shield damage and shield stun from what I've experienced than any BA move, so using neutral B could still be a good mixup. Dtilt BA, again, is good for crouching opponents.
I dont think you can grab them before they do. But im curious so post ASAP :D
Watch it happen, and then like a week later, he'll make a video along the lines of "does bayonetta need to be nerfed/banned?"
I take it you've watched his "Where's Bayonetta in the tier list?" Video? That's"I don't want my Sheik to lose to Nairo's Bayonetta" bias. Seriously, Nairo and Mew2king have already gotten the hang of her, while ZeRo apparently can't do squat with her.
Do you mean Dsmash? In that case, yes. It's a very good punish if you somehow got a shield break. Fully charged Dsmash will kill around 20 at the ledge.
haxfactory
can you make a video of DA cancel grab? I want to see how does it look like, i've no idea on how to do it

I feel like the bullet hits do a fraction of a percent, not even a full percent, I only see percent changes after a few hits.
I heard that they do 0.7%, but I don't remember were I heard that.
Most likely, 80% sure, they count as Dtilt.
Dtilt's BA's does 10% if all the hits connect, because Bayo is shooting 2 guns in front of her instead of one. She also shoots 1 behind her, but that's not very useful.
So every individual bullet counts and 1 down tilt? If so that's awesome, making it very easy to unstale all her kill moves.
"Camping" in this game, in the traditional sense, does not work. You can't sit a distance away from the opponent spamming bullets, wait for the opponent to approach, and punish that approach. Bullets Arts and Bullet Climax both have a LOT of cooldown, and trying to sit on them isn't going to be successful. Camping in this game is a lot quicker, and done very opportunistically. It's more like a reminder to the opponent that they can't keep their distance, so pepper them here and there to keep them pestered and always coming at you. But never for more than a second, because the lag is too much to sit on.

I think that's not accurate. Bullet arts stale the move you are using (even if one bullet touch it counts like one move)
Pretty much. Even if you're just tomahawking, if you aren't moving you're either hitting or getting hit. There's not much of a neutral to her. I like to micro space a lot when I use her. If my opponent is the aggressor I d-tilt Bullet Arts, run back a bit, poke with f-tilt 1, pivot grab, retreat with a b-air or held n-air, then eventually jump over to their other side while trying to collide with a held u-air. I'll keep this up with poking till an opportunity arises.
From D1's tweet it seems like dash grabs only whiff if you try to do it while already directly behind Bayo. I imagine the grab hitbox is actually reaching past Bayo due to her stance. If you space yourself away from Bayo first and then dash grab, it'll connect. (Haven't tested yet so can't confirm.)
I'm pretty sure that's correct. I've noticed that I'll go from going up a percent after 1-2 hits to it taking as much as 4 hits just to go up a percent when shooting bullets with nair.
Are you sure you used the same dtilt hitbox each time? Her foot has a different hit box than her thigh which does 1 more percent.
I did it with the tip of the Dtilt everytime I'm pretty sure. It was a quick test to make a point though, I expect someone to have a full explanation with all this (footage and whatnot). I ain't no expert about staling
Yes they only take one slot IIRC
Staling is determined by input. Mewtwo's Usmash takes one slot in the staling queue because you have only inputted Usmash once, whereas in your example with fox, you input neutral B multiple times, hence multiple slots. I do not believe BA would stale moves, because you are not doing an extra input, only prolonging your input.
I think is just a matter of colliders, maybe you cant grab zss with a dash grab right next to her while shes shielding.
I just dont think Bayo resonates with him tbh.
