How do you guys handle Spectral and Mystic Error Macro? In every variation Kenshi punishes a raw BF2 from Mystic from anywhere on the screen with BF3 free so he can't throw that out willy nilly, but how do you guys deal with Ermac's ji3 into soul blast? That shit kills me everytime, is air soul blast plus on block cause I feel like I can move if I block that.
and then there's Spectral's corner pressure which you can armor, but if he reads your gonna armor then he can armor Tele cause when he's airborne EX Tele has armor, and then you're getting combod. So you need advancing armor? Okay let's try Possessed Tele, if he reads that your gonna do that he can move back and BF2 you. Now if I remember right, inbetween each hit of 1 2 3 4 or whatever normals he does in in the air, there is a gap in between each of those so what you can do is react to everything he does instead of reading him. Wait for him to hit you with air normals and interrupt them, wait for him to EX Tele and punish it, but then he can go straight into the ground stomp or the air blast and there goes that, at that point you have to guess.
In Balanced you have to limit tele flurry heavily cause he gets a free Tele punish, use Overhead slash a lot so he doesn't lift often, eventually he'll get impatient cause he can't lift into stomp like a madman and he'll tele you so be ready to punish. In Kenjutsu Tele toss is situational and only use it when you know you're gonna hit him or you can get away with it. Possessed is a bit weird cause Low demons don't have an aerial hit box, so idrk what you gotta do with Possessed.
In regards to Ermac's B124 string, do not attempt to poke out, you will get beat everytime so just don't do it. This string is practically a frame trap because he has an option for everything you can do. Wanna be safe and use Your EX BF2 armor? boi my EX Soul blast has that shit covered. You wanna backdash? String is neutral boi, bring dat ass back here where you going? Boi I will F4 dat ass if you backdash. and since he has a 6 frame d1 he's at advantage so you are not gonna poke out. You wanna cross me up? boi my D1 will hit just as you get in the air motherfucker, get back down here. You wanna jump back? Okay I gotchu, I'll just BF2 dat ass and we good. The only solution I have is get hit by the last hit of B124, but just don't get hit in the corner cause in the corner he converts. F21D2 is also 0 on block but you can armor backdash the last hit free, but he can stagger it so don't get too armor happy with that one either.
This is what I got. How do you guys handle the MU for both Spectral and Mystic? It feels really disadvantaged for Kenshi.
