i heard krayzie mention that u can avoid smokes smoke bombs by doing a deep jumpkick and avoid jax's groundpounds by doing d4? my question is how does this all work? could someone make a video of it? also wat else are those 2 things capable of avoiding?

Idk if my friend Nitemare from Xbox wants me to mention it, but we have been working D4 anti-airs/cross up anti-airs with certain characters who have a suitable D4. It has been seen to blow up jump in punches and kicks. Deep jump kicks are unknown as of now. Seems inconsistent.

Just throwing some random stuff out there.

Jade players do this for a living.

EDIT:
D4 and D3 avoiding things is a matter of shifting your hurtbox.
Deep JK killing moves such as Kabal's dash is a matter of moves having active hurtboxes where they do not have a hitbox.

Jade's staved normals reach right into the hurtbox and poke it.

Well if cage does a D4, it will avoid Jaxs GP if time right. Kang can do the same thing with standing fireball.
Repositioning normals are an interesting thing. I use Jade's b3 to avoid it.
It can yield a 20% combo in on him if he gets caught in the b32,df4,[12],d1,df2
12 is only doable in the corner.

Last year when I kept talking about repositioning property of normals people were like WUT U MEEN DEY DODJ?! OL OL OL UR NUB
And look how good it is.
