Question - Stunt Double Cooldown Time?

I'm in a near character crisis.
I love playing Johnny Cage in A-List, but I want to play Stunt Double effectively as well. However, ever since I've been learning Stunt Double, I don't know the exact seconds till the cool down ends.

~5-6 seconds. really high compared to other state/buff moves.

part of the key to learning stunt double is managing the clones as a resource, which takes some practice but is completely doable. i'd suggest figuring out rhythms and optimization in your play that makes sure you always have at least 1 clone (i.e. combos that last long enough to eat up the cool down, where you can activate in neutral, etc)

While the cool down is 5-6 seconds. It resets EVERYTIME you use one of your clones. Anytime you use a clone you have to wait the 5-6 seconds. I've found it relatively hard to activate against a Raiden or anyone who can punish you full screen on reaction. I've also found success in trying to bait them into thinking I'm going to activate for a full punish. All part of the mind games.
