Trouble with anti airs

[greenblob]

Is it me or are anti airs such as d2s weak and this game and lose to jump kicks? I have been using Goro and Scorpion and I feel like there is nothing I can do to stop people from jumping in.

Anti-airs for the most part are unfortunately really bad in this game. You have to adapt your gameplay to compensate for that. That means spacing to where you don't put yourself in that situation, challenging opponents with your own air attacks, or finding ways to exploit weak anti-airs as a means of your own jump-in offense.

Its the IGAU thing all over again lol.
Try anti airing Scorpio and meet the Vortex lol.
Ive tried dashing back or under and they auto correct right to you...

Well for Goro I play him too and his anti airs are pretty lousy, U1 is not terrible, but it's not great.

I think everyones anti airs are lousy for the most part. Except Jax and a few others.
I can see a jump in coming and still get hit by the stupid ass kick. Not even a trade -_-

EH an armored move on reaction brah.

JK d2s and standing pokes dont work for shit lol

AAs are just really bad unless you have like a 7f d2 and even then the hitboxes aren't all that generous. Standing/other crouching normals than d2 normals may be a better way to go about it for some.

Learn the spacing to trip guard. You get more damage and it's more reliable as a AA.

Thats a bit harder to do than said. Especially in a fast paced game. Try blocking ermacs stupid sweeps and then getting jumped on -_- he always gets the auto correct.
