Advanced Strategy
Don't use her move, and don't use her either.
I don't use her much since you can't actually combo into it.
The only time it really has any use is if you know the person's gonna try to low block, but even then I prefer on most occasions because it has more follow-up options.
I haven't had much reason to use her either unless the person is being really predictable with jump-ins.
I prefer just to use the regular deflect since I can get way more damage off it, at the cost of slightly pickier deflect timing.
For ground poking, use 
and standing .
Air poking, use
Get low jumping cross-up down. Great way to pin down inexperienced opponents, if you just low cross-up slash with her over and over. It's really hard to deflect and has a huge radius as well.
is amazing ground anti-air but can be air parried by better players. It does a lot of damage on power, so it's very useful for punishing predictable air recoveries.
Try dashing past someone on the ground, then using > :l: > > bread and butter. This should nail them when they get up if they don't see the cross-up coming.
