124 has a gap no matter what you do after it. Didn't know you could fly over some armor attempts with bf4. Gonna check this out for sure. @Tweedy getting ready for Alien nerfs and practicing Jax I see?
Yeah, i'm testing with different characters now. It goes over Warlock's EX scoop but the knee doesn't recover in time to punish. It goes over Mileena's EX roll but she goes far enough to where a punish isn't possible.

They also eat the 10% from the knee as well. If this works vs War God he'll eat up to 50% for spending that bar lol.

Jax is definitely an option after the patch, yeah. Not sure if i'll commit yet, though.
 
is there any sense to use JIP1 in pressure ? i tried to confirm low starter after 1,1, JIP1 and it works, but what if your opponent ducks or tries to poke after 1,1 ? cant reproduce it in practice :(

If its a pretty instant j1 and they don't have meter then its fine but if your playing against some female characters like d'vora for example and she pokes im pretty sure you'll whiff. Also 11 doesn't guarantee a follow up after it unless you condition your opponent with 11 d1 or if you know they are gonna poke 11 exohp

It's not really a thing on block, at least I don't think so. Ominous is the first one I saw doing 11 to jip1 on hit to jail into more pressure or 50/50.

Ye i know right. But if he wants to do it he can- based on the conditions i mentioned before. You can actually cancel into a jip1 and combo off it too

Have any of you ever needed more than one hit on Ex Gotcha? Even against Klone Traps, it's so fast that you can usually time it to catch SZ without getting hit twice.

Not too worried about armorless Overhead Punch; just sad they did nothing for otg damage.

Overall, looking like I might switch mains. Very disappointing.

use PU against sub-zero; PU have best zoning tools: plasma n IAGP, also now he have double armored gotcha - it helps in corner against clones and subs overheads; yep it still difficult MU but PU have best chances

So looks like there's no point playing heavy weapons anymore - you can't hit his one cancel mid screen combos because there isn't any stamina left to run forward f21 so he gets 26% for a bar or 28% metreles only if you hit confirm the f3. How is this ok?

Does 3b2 still link after cancels? Might have to do that instesd. Good for punishes but hard to hitconfirm. :/

Yup you still can but goodluck doing b2 into it consistently. So he gets 33% midscreen max damage off of b34 exOH f21234.
Literally no point playing heavy weapons cuz if you cancel to bait and they armour no stamina to cancel combo

I dont understand why anyone would ever rocket cancel b2 when specials only come out on hit smh. Just input the oh dash punch! Everytime...
