I dont know about most consistent, but it does set up the footsie game. Although I personally have been using the spin too, F44 F4 is rarely mentioned. If the time presents itself to use it, we need to use it. D1 slices is also a rarely mentioned anti air, although that is less consistent and more situational.
if i AA with d1 i link to charge as if one of the slices whiff your going to eat a wakeup attack

I've been using F4,4, 4 to AA for sometime now, especially good for punishing a blocked teleport from Scorpion even though there are other options. Alot of people also don't know if you manage to hit the opponent when they are high enough with F4,4 you can full combo for 31-34%.

Mid air jp I always follow with standing 4 blade charge outta habit.

standing 4 into spark is unbreakable damage ;)

fleshtrap i think zoid meant using f4,4 to AA a jumping opp,not for balled up punishes
Oh I understand dude, I was just saying I use it for balled up punishes as well, even though you have other options for a punish like that. If you AA on a opponent jumping in and they are high enough "And your close enough"in the air, you can dash B3,1, B1,1, blade charge for 34%, even if you only connect with the last hit of the F4,4 you still get 31%. You can just do the F4,4, F4 which is much easier and safer, or dash b3,1, F4 for 23% on the reset instead of 16%. Rather or not you go for the full combo or the longer reset, the F4,4, F4 is still the safest option as It's less likely to drop. In all honesty if your going for the combo, you want the F4 to whiff, and the 4 that follows to connect. The gravity doesn't take effect as quick if only the last hit of the F4,4 connects and getting the 31% full combo is much easier than getting the 34%. In all honesty I abuse the F4,4, it's really useful in alot of situations, Barakas need to use it more often.

Baraka should wear the scumbag hat,make a heavy metal band and tour the whole globe.

His band could be the uglies,feature mileena,reptile and sheeva.

I listen to alot of death metal/death core shit, pretty much any song about dismemberment reminds me of Baraka, so about half my music library. Whitechapel's album Somatic Defilement is about Jack the Ripper so it's a natural fit lol.
