Since @starvinggamer has abandoned us in our hour of need it falls to me once again to put forward a sketchy combo video. Behold!:
The one bar 35/37s are both quite difficult so I'm surprised I actually did them consecutively without failing; I guess that's what you get for playing Tanya for 25 hours or so. After 50 seconds its just sloppy stuff but I thought it was worth including both to demonstrate how weird the EX teleport is even if you're good at doing it and how dumb the hitbox on 34 ("Dark Worship") is. Kobu Jutsu is the most difficult to play but I guess from MIT's performance might be the best (in general, pyro is better at a lot of things) once people figure out how to blow up Dragon Naginata (not too difficult with certain characters). I'm pretty sure backloading the front end of the first combo (without the meter burn) winds up doing 38% but the timing on the second juggle is very odd and you might have to delay one of the rekkas as well. The 3 bar combos are just for shits and giggles, also they're fun to do.
Every Tanya should learn the raw EX teleport to 29% conversion since it's the best wakeup in the game, might not be completely optimal but it's relatively close.
We're going to see A LOT of tanya at CEO so now you can see what combos are optimal and not sort of, there's a ton of dropping go on from REO and MIT but they seem to keep up the pressure well anyway and for some of them I believe it's intentional just to get a better oki situation. Tanya is probably going to get nerfed after that in some way though I'm not sure how you nerf her without killing the character entirely (a la Scorpion in Injustice), also on the chopping block are Tempest Kung Lao and Jax (Jax will probably get a buff and a nerf).
I was almost positive I shaved off the last second but apparently not, just pretend that it's not there and all will be well with the universe.
