TTT2 - Adding Tag Button to Bound Move Inputs Alters Tracking

While we all know that pressing the Tag button with the input of a bound move brings in the partner character for a TA combo, it seems that it adds a little more changes to a move's properties in how it tracks. As YOU@KYSG demonstrates in the following video, the second hit of Nina's Ivory cutter gains further tracking to Nina's left after a blocked jab. This is the example used within the video but it's been documented that other bound moves like Jin's ff+3, Kazuya's d/b+2, Dragunov's wr+2 and ff+2 and several other bound moves gain additional tracking with the added tag button input. It's an interesting bit of information to know and maybe worth adding to your gameplay. The video (neta100) is from theater10's YouTube channel and there's further documentation on this on YOU@KYSG's Zexi page.

by input change button, tracking performance is changed.(a liittle bit)
Nina's 1+4
Jin's 1,2,3 / 1,3,3
A-King's d+2, d/f+2
....etc

Jin:
1,2,3 - 3rd hit of string with tag button improves tracking.
1,3,3 -  Slight improvement to tracking to the left.
ff+3 - Slight improvement to tracking to the left.
d/f+4 - Slight improvement to tracking to the left.

Nina:
Ivory Cutter (1+4) - The 2nd hit of the move tracking is improved (particularly to her left.)

Kazuya:
d/b+2 - Improvement to tracking to the right.

Dragunov:
ff+2 and while running 2's tracking gets improved.
- If the opponent block the wr+2~5 and your character runs out, your partner character runs in slightly off axis.
- Jab (1) on hit ~ ff+2~5 will hit opponents sidestepping to the right, side walking is neccessary to avoid the ff+2.

Tested out Bryan, JACK, Asuka, Lili, Bob, Devil Jin, Heihachi, Lee, & Feng but I don't think I've found anything like this. Maybe they don't have this tag alteration?

The difference in the tracking with this is very, very small. I don't see it affecting high level matches much at all really.

God damn it I don't want to start pressing the tag button with everything

tested Angel's bound moves, they didn't really gain any tracking from this.

I can't wait for people trying to buffer tag from Yoshi's uf+4 or Bryan's f,f+4.
