Looks good dude, for you I would say you get poked after f3 because you arent using shadow kick cancel into f2 so do less f34rc. When you go in for blockstrings use more d4 and forceballs and throws as your stamina decreases so you get some reward after nutpunch if they respect every thing.
@JTB123 your scorp looks good, would say you need to force your way out of pressure with armour and hold cage out of your face with d4. It's not the best but holds the range on f3 well, and after a lot of cancels you respect too much as you need frame perfect execution for true blockstrings with f2, you can poke or backdash if you think cage is slacking.
Looking at
@GGA Dizzy cancel data, F34RC should be +12...it should be impossible to poke after it if I go for F34.
I got to work on my execution a bit, but it happens to be a bit sloppy in some moments
That said, is true that f3SKRC gains some more advantage on block and there are less chances that I get pocked out, even when not being perfect. Is a good idea to try it, I'll work on that.
Thanks!
One thing I'd like to see a bit more would be f3->f3 to gain respect.
If your opponent reads your pressure (you were a bit predictable with the jabs after f3) he can easily d1 after your f3.
Second would be skrc if you see that your f24 got blocked so you can still keep going.
But in general you played really good, and your opponent aswell.
For sure cant wait for more
You are right I could use F3->F3 more, but that is something I do only after my opponent shows he is capable of dealing with F3->F2 and F3->12.
I don't like it too much because it is not a mixup or anything, if the opponent stays there blocking it beats this option and I end my stamina with little results.
It's great to catch backdash, I did it once around the ending of the set because JTB did backdash a few times before. In that case it works well.
You are totally right about cancelling f24 too, but sometimes I'm not sure about my stamina...if there is enough or no for the second cancel. Got to work on that.
Thanks for the tips!

Cage Match 2: Vs
@PlateOfWater stunt double
The first game is kind of awful because I had a freeze on my ps4 just before starting the set (lol) so both waited without hitting each other for a few seconds. Also, I missed a billion combos in the first game...just bad.
Except that, it was an ok challenge. I did nothing particular because I noticed that you had not much experience in the matchup...in my opinion is very important to get the lifelead and zone the opponent out, for Stunt Double is not too easy to deal with it imho.
A-List has a superior forceball; If you start throwing out your df2 to battle me from fullscreen, with a perfect timing I don't even need to block because my df2 animation ducks under your forceball.
You have to get a knockdown, activate the clones, and play the matchup from half screen distance, where your variation is superior.
Also, trying to interrupt me after 113SKRC on block is a good idea, but like JTB you didn't do that enough. Consider this option the next time.
Maybe
@FireBreather has some other tips, he has a badass stunt double and knows the matchup well.
