All Characters Who Johnny Cant Jail Post Update

I'm about 90% sure that Kano, Jade, and Cetrion used to be able to duck Johnny's strings into fireball. After playing a Kano he wasn't able to duck so I labbed all the characters with weird hitboxes who can duck his jail attempt.

Everyone else I don't mention can't duck anything.

I'll be mentioning Kano, Kollector, Kabal, Shang, Johnny, Raiden and all females.

Strings I tested are f344, 244, 34, and b34 all ending with bf2 mb. (Forgot to test 121 but if they can duck anything they'll most likely duck that too.)

I find this info important as I try to avoid playing against characters who can duck his fireball jail. Makes MUs much harder.

Let me know your experiences with this. Some of them (mostly Raidenand Shang) seems to jail sometimes and sometimes it doesn't.

EDIT: Went back and tested Shang again thanks to FoughtDragon01's recommendation and it's just inconsistent city over there. Let me know if you can figure it out.

EDIT: Turns out not all females can duck anymore HAHA. Thanks to Frank Reed and Zubro

Ducks B34? But, those are both lows.

Ask me about my Mileena agenda.
Also, it might be worth revisiting Shang Tsung. He's one of the ones where our Forceballs are wildly inconsistent. Sometimes both hit, sometimes the second one whiffs, sometimes only the first one whiffs. It's frustrating.

Ive noticed this too. But if you hold block then let go after the first ball, both will whiff. It was inconsistent when I was trying to let go of block after the strings ended, but if you hold block it SHOULD go over.

So... The character wasn't fixed at all then? Smh...

An AAA game shouldn't have this kind of crap. I'm not a main but I like Johnny a lot and it's a pity that he drops a good part of his gameplan against so many character because of game errors.

I don't think jade has a "female" hitbox. She is often excluded from the whiffing issues associated with them

As someone previously mentioned young shang has some property I forgot what it is standing block previous string or something causes whiffing. Old shang AFAIK cant duck anything. Those knees too old.
