Ill make a COMPREHENSIVE video very soon

Sweet, I mean i do fine against the pocket laos, but actual lao mains who know how to place the teleports really well give me trouble (ie Ermacio) and i think this will really help me deter that. Thanks man, and good luck at FR.

First tip, don't do f22b2 exSC on Dizzy if he has meter, he's smart enough to ex NP your exSC.

D1 shoulder to get out of pressure, and the only way he can avoid ex shoulder is if he is at more than plus 4, so nothing except exforceball. Fwd 33b3 does give enough space to jump over it, and he can ex nut punch too but besides that he is fucked. Otherwise kenshi can just play his patient game, cage can't do anything to stop it except random shadow kick lol

Watch "A Scanner Darkly" and embrace the mindset Kenshi, I mean..... Keanu Reeves has at the end.

You should tag Pig, Blindman, Bwizz, Blackula, GamerBlake90, and Chaosphere cause I doubt they check these regularly anymore so you can get an answer.

I think it's 6-4 in Kenshi's favor. Teleport can get Raiden in, but it's punishable. Once he's in it's hard for him to play footsies. Most of his game revolves around spacing and the range of b3, but Kenshi shits all over that. If Kenshi isn't throwing out a bunch of random shit for Raiden to teleport and punish then it's hard for Raiden to do much.

Raiden's biggest strength in this match up is probably his corner game and how easily he gets out when Kenshi puts him in the corner.

Agreed, i would go with 6-4 or even 7-3 for Kenshi. Raiden can do shit if he wants to maintain distance. One saving grace is corner, where Raiden do serious damage and on the other hand can easily escape one but patience Kenshi will just wait for that teleport to come and punish it.
