I guess only setup flawless blocking but I'm one of those clowns who do it just for an ez flex then f*** it up by NJ 3ing.

I’ve mastered nothing except for losing for doing a dumb move like rushing down with Cage or choosing Dragon Breath without using his command grab once.

Hmm, interesting how it’s called “SonicFox’s under dash”. We were, and still are doing that in UMK3. I know that it’s kinda irrelevant to mention, but it’s really interesting to me how this is considered something that is relatively “new”.

But anyway, here’s mine. Also, got rid of the starting numbers. Was kinda confusing. I feel it’s easier to follow the way I did it.
