ETC Mcfly, thanks for tagging me my friend. on the combo: i know doing instant divekick after uppercut is next to impossible, so massive props for hitting that. also, i've done things with lao in the corner with uppercut. have you tried from about that same range jip tele3 21 spin (dash) d2 2exhat jik tele3 plumflower? it does more damage and i think can lead to some creative new combos. for example it might be possible jip tele3 21 spin (dash) d2 2exhat jik exDK 3exhat tele3 plumflower (i'll try this later this month) or something else.
On the pressure, i was talking with
Wildabeast about this very recently and i think it's been known about for a minute but because of how risky and gimmicky it is i'm not sure it's practical depending on how much advantage it is (EDIT: just checked the frame data, and +13 isnt enough for lao to use an attack that will hit a crouching opponent, but it's smart that you use the jip to jail them standing, hmm). it it's more than i think it might be really good in setting up some stuff that i'm going to contemplate and try out and i'll let you know.
