Also the reason it feels like it's whiffing in the video is because you're doing it on the wall. If you do that with the same timing at the same distance midscreen, you'll see how Scorpion is way behind you when you're hitting the D2.

Because of the wall Scorpion lands on top of you but he's actually behind you, which is evident because the teleport comes from the front.

You're doing it too late. You're just not proficient with d2's. It's you and not the game.

No this can happen midscreen also going upload other video to show you
 
This happens with alot of D2's, they have a forward+ diagonal hitbox. Sonya's does too. In these cases, anti-air with a standing 1. Jumps like this are actually uniquely vulnerable to being AA'd by standing 1's.

I'll add that standing 1 is also a great way to deal with cross-over jumps when the opponent does a forward jump right in front of you. D2's whiff often in these cases because of their forward+diagonal hitboxes. But standing 1 will beat that every time, since the opponent auto-corrects late in this game.
