Tactics[]
Staerken drastically improves Falke's pressure game. Not only her special attacks are amplified with increased damage, but they do not require a charging input. However, Falke can still perform the regular version of her special attacks by holding any punch button, with the exception of Heavy Punch.
Because Psycho Schrot travels further, it becomes a better zoning tool for Falke. She can use this move to extend combos, cancelling into Psycho Panzer on hit or on block. It is also +4 on block. By pressuring her opponent with her strong normals in combination with Psycho Schrot, Falke can keep her opponent on their heels and force them to block, allowing her to break through their defenses with throws.
Psycho Panzer has a faster startup than Psycho Kanonen and travels quicker across the screen. In addition to the damage boost, it puts the opponent in a juggle state on hit, allowing Falke to end the combo with Psycho Schrot. While it is still unsafe on block, the speed of the projectile makes it difficult to react or anticipate.
Psycho Jaeger also has a slightly faster startup than Psycho Feder. The projectile's angle still remains at a near 45° angle. The only difference is that the projectile bounces off of the ground and ascends toward the air at about the same angle. This gives her aerial fireball better range, allowing her to attack her opponent when they are almost a fullscreen length.
Psycho Shrot and Psycho Kanonen can be cancelled into each other and can leave the opponent prone to her Critical Art.
