Dao-Long is a well-rounded character with fast charge inputs and a quick dash, making it easy to switch between zoning and offense. His Super “Shin Kyoku Ranbu” deals high-damage and combos from most normals and air juggles.
Attack
- Projectile ([4]6P): Builds meter and applies chip damage; recovery is fast enough to bait and punish jump-in attempts at specific ranges.
- Palm (A+C): Safe on block; Serves as a reliable hit-confirm into specials and Supers.
Defense
- Senkyuu Tai ([2]8K): Qucik close-range anti-air; The light verion, enables a Super juggle for if it connects at the peak of the opponent's jump.
- Close Normals: close 5C/5D are super-cancelable on hit for high-damage conversions.
- Back + C: Holding back and close 5C is as a powerful option select. It triggers an anti-air or a throw if the opponent is grounded.
Supers
- Houshin Renpa ([4]646P): Projectile-invincible Super; reliable hit-confirm from A+C.
- Shin Kyoku Ranbu ([4]646K): Primary Super for air juggles; confirms easily from normals and A+C.
- Renkyuu Tai ([1]319K): Invincible vertical anti-air; mash kick buttons to increase the number of hits.
Tips
Dashes
- Forward Dash: Fast recovery; ideal for pressure (light blockstring > dash > throw) and buffering Supers with [1]66.46K.
- Backdash: Invulnerable startup but with slow recovery.
Fuzzy / Instant overhead
You can perform a fuzzy jump with jC > neutral jB. Neutral jump B is also an instant overhead (though it doesn't work on all characters).
Throw Option select
Coupling Dash with Back Throw makes for an aggressive throw/anti-air option select. Useful for dealing with opponents who are trying to escape by jumping
