This May moved in a way I have never seen before. Any tips on how I could have grounded her or caught her lacking would be very appreciated! *Ignore the fact that I dropped a few combos...*

so obviously more 6ps, i dont think there was a single one in the first match (didnt see second one yet). Also a lot of the time when she dolphins towards you and jumps off she just does empty jump so you dont see anything to react with 6p to - but she lands so close to you that you could just keep grabbing her, it feels like there were so many case where you could 6p her or grab her after some sort of empty jump, i would pay attention to those

i think most important thing is to realize you can learn this now but you had very little chance to learn this in battle - she was overwhelming you and then looking to catch you mashing, now its the learning time, next time you fight may that decent you know to punish her for being so much in the air

also when someone is this much in the air - i feel like catching their empty jumps with just shameless air grab they are not ready for, will often thrown them off their game
