Help with a punish against Scorpion

Hey, i was playing last night against a scorpion player the typical teleport over aggressive type. Usually with my other Chars i punish the teleport, but with shang i tried the 221 to go into the b and b but after hitting with the first 2 scorp is to far away to connect the rest.

So what i'm asking is what is the best combo to punish the teleport after block :)

Also do not forget that you can close ground skull and it will automatically hit them before they hit you. The 11 frames of tracking follows them.
:d,:u, :bk
This has been nerfed in the new patch that just came out. c.ground skull no longer tracks.

Just let scorpion land then go for f434. A lot of ball rollup are punnishable this way.
What I do is hit Scorpion with 1 while in a ball state then follow up with F434,fargskull,exgskull, 121 or 12soulsteal if youre familiar with your opponent.

Actually if you time it just right you can get a full ground combo right when his feet touches the ground. Its hard to do that consistently online though...
