Stryker doesn't have a forward 3, I would substitute that for standing 4.

He also has a killer good 7 frame uppercut for anti-air.

Jade's up 3 should be added in my opinion.


I'll post combos off of their anti-airs.


Stryker:

1,2, gun shot, 1,2, roll toss for 30%.

Standing 4, roll toss for 18%.

Gun shot, 4, roll toss for 25%.


Jade

1,2, 1,2, 2,3,forward 2 staff grab/double shadow kick for 20%

Back 2, 1,2,2,3, forward 2, staff grab/double shadow kick for 25%.
 
shang's b1 is almost as good as his standing 1 for aa (pretty much the same thing, but b1 can be done while moving backwards so i like to use that)

f2 is eh, no

why is f4 even up there as an AA, f4 is such a garbage AA it's not even funny lol.

3 is alright, not really

b2 is awesome for spacing in general, not a good AA really but you can use b2 SS for spacing, it works as an AA once in a blue moon

SS isn't good at close range as an AA for shit, try that and eat combos

db2 is good for preventing jump ins because of its tracking (not really a good AA because upskull takes some time to become active and you'll eat a combo if you don't time it right)

d3 is good for anti crossups/aa because it lowers his hitbox

his sweep is okay for AA because of its hitbox (though sweep and d3 will probably lead to nothing)

d4 gs is alright as well if you're precise with your spacing but it's really hard (if not impossible) to lead up with anything besides mgs

above all, shang's uppercut is the #1 AA in the game. use it always #kappa

Show me what you can do
Liu Kang:
2 is best best AA, decent range, killer hitbox, and comes out at 8 frames.

Combo: 2, f12, b312, b1/f24 into Bicycle Kick.

b1/f24 part: The 4 on the f24 will whiff (making the Bicycle Kick whiff as well) if your opponent is too close to the ground, so use b1 instead.

Bone and Metal
Sektor's f2 and b1 are more like footsie tools, trying to use them as AAs will generally get you crossover'd.

Standing 1 into full combo for upclose jump-ins, substitute for uppercut if you're not comfortable with it's range. Flamethrower for between close and mid-screen.

in addition to this hes one of the few chars gifted with an awesome d1 for crossup AA
 
Reactions: JAP

This one's for you
Reptile add ex forceballs and 1. Get rid of forceballs, 3, and f2.
Cyrax add 12. Get rid of net and buzzsaw.
Sub Zero get rid of ice blast.

These are just my opinions. Even though forceballs, net and ice blast can keep opponents from jumping, they can't be used as AA on reaction. That's why I wouldn't include them.

Let's see how long this lasts...
I dunno about neutral 4 for Sindel... I guess it'll work if it's a far away jump but, I've often pressed it (cause I'm bad) and eaten a jip for it.

I would probably add U4 to her list, maybe B2 but I never use B2 to give legit experience on it. Also her hair whip can anti-air but I defiantly wouldn't put it as one of her 'best' anti-airs xD
 

matterovermind

mindundermatter
Smoke's teleport punch is an alright AA - gotta becareful with it though. I also throw out ex shake on fools that like to jump in here and there.
