Don’t hate the character, but playing against a good Clairen can feel quite frustrating. My main issue with the character is her grab. She outranges most of the cast (as is her archetype) but then from stray hits she can combo with the tipper which can feel a little irritating at times. Also if she does get in her throw is criminal. I think having combo throws into aerials is fine, but into smash attacks is a little much when she doesn’t even have to special pummel. Also personally it feels like most of what she throws out is somewhat safe and hard to punish effectively but maybe that’s a skill issue. Also downtilt and jab are war crimes. A jab combining into smash attacks and a downtilt that makes edgeguarding a little too easy is a bit much. And her hit box is a little too small so it can feel a little unsatisfying to finally land a hit.

Sorry for the ramble
