ClawBot v1.3

This input may be difficult if the player does not set a button for HP+HK due to how clean it generally needs to be. There is no real leniency either. The 5MP must be quick, but not instant, almost as if it was supposed to be hidden but could not be done in time. This recording is somewhat easier to understand with V-Gauge set to Normal and the claw off. If he only rolls and never does the MP when it is replayed into itself, retry.

When replayed by itself, if done correctly, VegaBot should do a 'Wall Dive', going to the side of the screen behind him. Which of the three inputs he uses after that depends on how far he is from the wall. The timing is fairly strict but clean, this must not be mashed, multiple inputs will become a problem over time unless it is just 2x of the 5LP before the 421 style motion. It is also fairly important to end this 'cleanly' at 1. Understanding the timing that makes this input effective vs your own character is variable. We suggest re-inputting this particular input nearly every time you use this bot, just to keep it variable, until you find the perfect one for your current character.

This action can cause many behaviors and has multiple variants. As a result, this section will not give any explanation of what it 'should' be. The inputs are generally easy, if a bit quick, and while they are not specifically lenient, it is relatively easy to tell when they are not working correctly. Due to the game's natural lenient input shortcuts, this may be able to do strange things such as regular Wall Dive, even though no inputs it actually uses would indicate that it should be able to do this.

Variant Suggestions: For zoner characters (Nash, Dhalsim, Ryu, Ken, Menat, Guile, Boxer, Juri, Urien, Ed, FANG, Birdie) use the original version, for grapplers (Abigail, R.Mika, Zangief, Alex) use the entire variant. For aerial characters (Cammy, Akuma, Dictator, Claw, Ibuki) use the front half of the variant and the second half of the original. For pressure characters (Karin, Necalli, Laura, Chun-Li, Rashid, Kolin) use the front half of the original and the second half of the Variant. If you perceive the mentioned characters as being in a category other than those suggested, please use the category you believe they are in, as it probably reflects your playstyle with that character.

CE version: This input is, unfortunately, complex, the 1LP+MP after the 7 does not need to be fast enough to trigger Sky High Claw on its own from a down charge, instead this will do Negative Edge EX Sky High Claw sometimes, or H Sky High Claw when used with Action #5. So when it replays into itself you should normally see an EX Sky High Claw, since you should have ended this input holding LP+MP+MK, but when other inputs play into this, usually there will only be a back jump MP. This input's timing also helps improve Wall Dives, though.

This input is lenient, as shown by the optional parts of the final directional input (in brackets). The dash can also be allowed to come out via the buffer, but the player should definitely try to make sure that they have input the commands before the slide ends. When replayed into itself, this input should be able to do a forward moving EX Wall Dive. If the input is plinked and the LK is first, it may cause some difficulty in both gaining points and understanding the bot, but for non-pressure characters, this can be used for a while if you just want to get started. The end input has a special effect. The faster you can cleanly do it, the more likely the bot will be to dash up Throw rather than dash up LK.

The longer the 9 input, the more likely the bot is to jump. With optimal timing, when replayed into itself on the first try, it should cause the HP->HP target combo if claw is on. Normally it does EX moves (which one, depends on claw status).

CE Version: The 9 input can't be long here, and it will actually only ever cause a relatively 'useless' forward jump HP, but with most of the inputs that can play into this one, it won't be a problem, unless the dash timing in Action #4 is really unfortunate (you have nearly no control over this even when you input the bot, so there is no way to advise how to resolve it). He technically still has his command grab, but the timing for it will usually no longer cause it to be effective.
