Next time I'm in Chicago, I'll let you know. While my Sakura is
nowhere near as good as Bok Choy's, I do know a lot about her.
Easy enough to answer, wait til either the opponent jumps in at you or
an opportunity to VC (such as counter VC, VC through FB's, limbs, etc)
and activate VC with Fierce+RH (aka VC3) and do Jab DP, Back+Fierce
into whiff Short Hurricane Kick (sometimes I do Forward for the first
one, depending on ranges), back+fierce, whiff Short Hurricane Kick,
etc. Once you reach the corner, do fierce, whiff fireball, fierce,
whiff fireball, etc. This VC takes a little while to get down. You
might want to use RH, whiff fireball, when you get near the corner,
then go into Fierce - depending on how they are in relation to you.

Well, with her midscreen VC of doom, no one really is going to jump at
you, and if they are, use that. However, in times that you aren't
charged, here are the things that I do: Air Throw with KK has amazing
range. Back+Fierce from far, standing RH from far, back+strong if up
close (works well against zangief's splash) and lastly, jump straight
up fierce.

Umm...as Choi would say, just hit standing Roundhouse!! While there is
more to her than just this, you would be suprised how for this will get
you. Stand right around sweep range and hit standing Roundhouse over
and over. This will beat almost all foot games. You want to do
back+fierce into fireball at this range also.
One thing that I like to do is (all blocked), low Short, back+fierce
into fireball, standing rh. This does mad Guard Crush damage. Be
careful though, cause people will start either supering or VC'ing
through the fireball, at this point either do back+fierce then block or
back+fierce into fireball and keep tapping punch. Against bigger
characters you can do low short, back+strong, back+fierce, etc. When
they get used to this, do low short, back+strong into PP throw, then go
for a crossup or whatever.
Oh yeah, I'm assuming you know how to play Sakura on the beginner
level. If not, her MAIN combo is Jump in attack, low shortx2, stand
short into fierce dp. Learn this. Make sure you can do it from both
sides, if not, play someone else. Also, make sure you go for crossups
as much as possible. Even if they block the crossup, go into the low
short, back+fierce BS.
Basically, all you are really doing with V Sakura is forcing them to
eat standing RH all day long, then eating GC damage with back+fierce
then when they jump, do her mid screen VC. Rinse, Wash, Repeat.
There are tons more of small nuances that I can discuss, so if you have
any further questions, just post on here.
