Thanks guys! Wow, there's so many great resources on 8wayrun! I've been lurking for a few weeks while reading up on the basics, so I've gone over her frame data and I'm in the process of figuring out how to use her tools. I also read through the main Q&A thread about Natsu in her soul arena, so I've got a decent grasp of what people are saying about Natsu and her tool set.
I still love Siggy but one of the main reasons I switched over to Natsu when I decided to get serious about this game is that I can't do

. Natsu's
:
is so much easier for me to execute, though I'm still working myself to the bone in practice mode to perfect the timing on
:
and PO

I find that a lot of my practice goes towards eliminating bad habits from years of casual play. It's really tough for me to adjust to doing
and
instead of
and
, even knowing that the third hit is punishable on block.
At this stage though there are so many things to practice, it can feel overwhelming! But I'm having a lot of fun practicing so I'm sticking with it. :) It's difficult to decide where to put my effort though, what aspects to practice first! So if you have tips about that, I'd be grateful.
EDIT: Oh, I thought of another question. Can you buffer just inputs? Let me explain the question. Let's say you do
,
:
. Now, what I end up doing is, I'll wait for Natsu to get into Possession and then I'll try to hit A as soon as it's possible. But I'm worried that I'm losing frames doing that, so I want to buffer the A. But if I buffer the A, can I buffer the just input 6, or do I have to wait until the move has started up to hit A?
