Is Andy a good anchor? I'm a total noob to this game, but it seems like he can get some major damage and pressure with his EX moves.
Can anyone test a combo not at home for a while how much damage does

if you're going for a crossup though.
will completely lock down your opponent. Training dummy was set to Guard Cancel and I would block before the + could hit me (This was vs Iori, maybe different characters have different speeds). If they don't Guard Cancel then you are free to use another move which will connect before they're out of blockstun. Standing will lock them in, crouching or instant overhead with / seem to be good options here as well though. Although it's not a true blockstring (if it was it would be an infinite), , (1 hit) xx seems to be a great way to keep your opponent still. and / appear to be very similar, if not identical (except for the few frames at the very start) Might be worth practising a running grab. Best way to do that so far I've found is until you're next to the opponent, then neutral / almost instantly followed by
is quite a good anti air, far is also decent if you use it in anticipation. Also I really like 
because it becomes vulnerable on the first active frame. If you trade with someone that doesn't knock you down you can go straight into 
and even follow up from there in the corner/with drive.

Some HD instant overhead stuff. You can also combo from the moves used for blockstun on hit:
Really cool. In your experience, how difficult is that to pull that off in a real match? Do you think you have enough time to confirm from the far C (or even close D) if they are crouching or not to decide on a followup in the pace of a regular match?
is more for the surprise element because far + HD closes the gap really fast. Close however will give you a lot more time to confirm, especially if you start with a jump in. + your / as an instant overhead after using crouching s, so going low is the safer option. You need to commit to a special if you want to land something from the overhead however.

HD (add for Mu Shiki) is a command to get DP + HD cancel into Rekka) and go straight into the DP, but it's a lot safer to close any potential gap first, especially if you hit the overhead at max range. (DP/Rekka) repeatedly, but I have yet to incorporate it into a proper combo so I don't know how viable it is. Of course with that many cancels you're going to burn your drive out pretty quickly though.
