Do u realize that b12 there is no gap so armor is not even an option. Ur stuck mashing armor and he gets a full safe combo. And further. Will he be able to do back 12 and command grab on hit or block.That's why reads exist. You have to make a read and hope it pays off. The opposing player has to do the same thing. If they think you're gonna try and jump out of b1~db2, then they can just do a b1 and attempt to punish your jump attempt or they can go with b14~Sunstone or whatever they choose.
However, at the same time, if you make the read that they think you're gonna jump and intend to punish you for it, don't jump and go from there.
Again anyone justifying this change is outing themselves as some of the biggest scrubs in the community.
