I've found myself doing that a lot more too , especially when i J3 at that distance where i know that if it gets blocked and there's that pushback that makes d1 / f23 whiff and can get you poked out , d2 reaches ,it's + and on hit allows to continue the combo for 30% or even allowing for the 23 ender.
Also i've scrapped the 123 ender for other similar vortex setups w sword flip , i made a vid for the b1u2 string ending in the 50 50 j3 , there are similar enders for 132 and f3 , most of the times tho you have to make them double guess before waking up so bait them a good bunch of times , this applies to both 123 or other enders , i'd say this goes into the specific MUs setups and their wakeups.
