I don't know if this has been covered already, but...
Given the insanely slow start-up it has, the use of Raiden's f4 overhead is highly discouraged to the point where it's almost non-existent. And with nearly all of Raiden's attacks being overheads and none being any reliable lows, who would use his f4, really?
However, I think it might actually be safe on block and give you frame advantage. The reason I say this? It's based off my experience with playing Raidenwins offline at his place some weeks ago. I happened to do an f4 overhead and he blocked it, but couldn't counter me at all. We then reversed the roles and I tried to counter him after blocking the f4, but didn't have any luck either. This could require further testing to make sure.
Chances are there may actually be use for this tactic, but again I have to point out the slow start-up frames and the fact that it's easy to block Raiden's overheads. What do my fellow Thunder Gods make of this?
Discuss freely.
