F3 is overrated. It doesn't have much more range than f44 and can't be hit confirmed, and I don't want to do f3~db2 and knock him full screen anyway because Liu has to be in on him in this MU. I was using b2 after his d4 on block but on hit doesn't give me that much in this MU because ex tele stops any zoning, so I have to run up and pressure but I don't have any stamina left for his best block strings.
And trip guarding only works from a good distance away, and relies on the opponent spacing it badly from max range, but he still has a big generous range to jump at me from. So close up we're playing footsies but he has the added ability to jump at me when it's not a risk if he's actually thinking about the spacing, but Liu can't really jump because his jump attacks suck.
