Some small notes.

Use her ;c ;d as a Anti-Air is great. It may be slow, but it beats & or trades with alot of shit.

Also, her Short Hop ;c ;d causes good pressure.

Also just like in old KOF's, I find it very important that Mature players practice her Ebony Tears and get them down smoothly one after another. Furthermore, practice to understand the correct spacing & timing for tossing them out. This move is one of Matures very few strong points. It covers a good amount of the screen and can blow up short hops if used correctly. Also, clearly the EX version is Very good. Can make some pretty good pressure setups off of them.  
You don't think she's very good? Her damage output is low I know, but...

Huh!? R you sure your referring to me. If so I didn't say or mean that at all, this is just some ways to play her. I think shes very good. She or Vice are always the anchor on my team.
I think it seemed implied you felt that way because of the wording of "This move is one of Matures very few strong points."

Respect the fact you picked up the game without even having the console d(^w^)b
Had to get that preorder bonus!

Hasn't been all bad, friend's have 360s and I've tied my account to a mem card. When I can afford to visit them, I play. Tend to leave the game at their place to encourage them practicing while I'm not around. It's always helped for me to just fight flat out tougher people as far as learning goes so part of me usually hopes they bother to get really good at it while I'm not around so I'm forced to learn if I'm gonna win.

I would think doing ;bk ;fd ;d immediately moving to ;df to charge down then ;up ;c would work, since corners charge both directions.

Remember to always use  ;db or  ;ub, as storing a forward charge does nothing.

In the corner you can do MS (DC) GS, MS (DC) GS, etc., but mid-screen you have to do MS (DC) GS (DC) MS (DC) GS, etc. So, the timing is a bit more difficult mid-screen. Generally, I feel like the loop isn't worth it mid-screen unless you're in HD for the free cancels.
Yeah, but in this particular instance we're not looking to use another  ;bk charge, until possibly after the  ;up ;c, in which case you'd just move to ;ub immediately after to charge  ;bk for another  ;bk ;fd ;d Outside a pre-thought out combo though, yeah, charging  ;fd would be rather silly.

so... how well could somebody break down the timing and execution on those charged Drive Cancels on the forum here? I went into training with her recently and could not for the life of me figure out how to properly slam out those  ;bk- ;fd ;d  to  ;dn- ;up ;c cancels repeatedly. I could get one after another and then I was completely LOST on the execution, the rhythm... everything.

I'm considering using her. I have Mature as an anchor on one of my teams but I dunno if she's the best way to go, so I'm thinking of poppin Betty or Leona at the bottom of one of those teams.

Yo, been playing KoF on and off for awhile, mostly '02 (both vanilla and UM,) 11, and now 13. Don't have an xbox to play 13 atm because I had to sell it a few months back for cash (though this didn't stop me from preording KoFXIII anyways.) Finally made the switch to stick back in November (Hori Fightstick VX, have some seimetsu buttons en route I plan to put in.) Been getting more serious about playing fighters, and KoFXIII has really delivered for me, personally. So, that's why I'm here.

Since I don't actually have a console, I stream monster a lot when I'm not doing GGPO, been looking around for KoF streams but they seem few and far between. Southtown Arcade's and this Alaskagamers (they're doing KoF tonight, btw) stream are the only ones I know of.

Haven't picked a staple team for KoF13 yet, but like playing:

Leona (fav, almost always a staple)
Beni
Elizabeth (probably second most common)
King
Maxima
Hwa

If only Yamazaki were in the game!
