Question How come Kabal cannot B1~NDC Lao sometimes?

[Winter]

Lao is supposed to have a low-mid hitbox, and therefore be open to B1 NDC, but often in battle it whiffs, and there goes my pressure. This is specific to Lao, it doesn't happen against other low-mid hitbox characters like reptile. Does anyone know why? REO Cat

Characters hitboxes change when they breathe.

I believe something similar happens to Ermac.

No, I mean his crouching hitbox breathes, causing him to duck certain things that aren't duck able.

B1 will sometimes whiff on Kung Lao. I usually stick to f3(2)ndc variations with the occasional B1(2). You don't really want to pressure Kung lao unless you need the life lead, build meter, or bait a spin.
