Alright, just got my ass handed to me by Expert AI Jax, and I'm curious: what is the universal punish starter for a ground pound that is cancelled post-pound?
OHH!!! I thought he meant like after the move whiffs and Jax is on the recovery. So yeah my bad for putting wrong information out there as the spear and most projectiles will simply go over him. If Jax gets off the ground pound and misses... scorpion can use Ex takedown or hell fire. So depending on his range he should decide which one to use to punish. As Jax is coming up during recovery a spear can catch him he just needs to learn the timing as there is a brief second before he can block. During the ground pound, once Jax actually touches the ground he is safe from the majority of the cast. From the ex takedown I can only assume low attacks are the only thing that will take him out of it. Also wake ex teleport, ex takedown, and ex hell fire, will do the trick if he hits you with f4,1,4 and then goes for the ground pound.Timing it so it passes over him after the Ground Pound already whiffed, but before he starts recovering... I was just letting Jax recover on his own, not hitting any buttons after the GP. I don't think it's so much an issue of his hitbox being lower than a crouch during the Ground Pound as it is the EX Harpoon having the property of hitting crouchers. Example: Just look at Ermac's Force Ball pass through a crouching Kenshi... it's certainly not the lowered hitbox of the crouch that avoids the projectile, but the properties of the attack that causes it to whiff on crouchers. In fact, I think Jax's hitbox is a bit higher than a crouch, at least near his back arm... that's why Teleport Punch still hits him but doesn't hit crouchers; Teleport Punch does not have the property of whiffing on crouchers, it's just the lowered hitbox of crouching that avoids it.
No problem! I really do suggest working on another character as well though to get that block in there. Just getting Jax down won't help if you decided to switch characters or learn another.Thank you very much my friend. I will go to the lab and will.. "Bring It!"
