One thing I've been thinking about using is F32 and then EX fb immediately after (I've been re-implementing f32 into my gameplay a lot more lately). You can't cancel F32 in specials anymore, obviously, but it can catch your opponent off guard. Mixing up f3, f32, and f32 ex fb can keep your opponent guessing. It may have just been accidental, but REO uses it against CD Jr here (at 3:34):

A lot of old tricks work against people to catch them off guard but don't rely on it too much folks!

Uhh.. ok. I guess I'll ask this here since F32 was mentioned especially. Can someone tell me, why the 2 in F32 is a high versus quan chi? As in it whiffs on crouch block.

Maybe the term is special high. It hits neutral crouch but whiffs crouch block.. only on quan chi. I watched REO's video about kabal's pressure system. He said the three lowest hitbox characters in the game are sektor, Mileena, and Jax. F32 hits mid on all of these characters. I was in training mode and just noticed that it whiffed on Quan Chi. This blew my mind.

QC just has a weird hitbox I guess. I think the 3 in JC's f33b3 string whiffs on QC as well (not sure if it's crouch blocking or stand blocking).
