Let's have a Touhou gameplay thread for both the shoot-em-ups and the fighting games.

I'm a total and complete noob at Soku, and at the moment I'm just learning the basics. To give yourselves an idea of how noob I am, I can't even nail an uppercut. Soku is bebby's first fighting game for me. I use a PC gamepad and recently learned basic fighting technique in Soku (first I learned to just hit the basic A punch, then I learned to hit the dial A combo, then I learned to spam basic ranged attacks when the enemy is away), I recently managed to win my first arcade mode on Lunatic, and since I don't even know any special move someone suggested me to move on to learning how to hit spellcards (at the end of a combo or on a guard crush).

So after I learn how to hit a spellcard and build a deck, what else should I learn? I still feel way too unskilled to start learning powers and combos.
