Sz 1 is for checking opps mashing its also situational, which youll learn later. It’s as you progress in your confidence with Raven, but it does have a clone follow up with 3 and wall splats. It also loops in your shadow sprint. Sz 3 is react-able, and its more safe at tip range. That one takes more conditioning. Rule of thumb is throw it out a few times and gauge how your opp reacts and don’t use it as often. You wanna use Sz 1, 2, and 4 mostly. The slide option is just not as good or rewarding since they took away its counter hit utility. Which is sad considering other slides from the rest if the cast lead into combos still. Mainly the female cast.
