1. Ok, I've noticed that sometimes no matter what I do after a knockdown, even if I guess correctly, I still get hit. I don't understand. This could just be due to online and the shitty netkode, but it's incredibly annoying. A move that tends to catch me nearly everytime is Liu Kang's stupid braindead 4-hit combo starting with the low kick that everyone and their mother abuses online. Even when I know it's coming, which it does 10/10 times, I still get tagged on wake-up. Super annoying and frustrating. It's almost like there's a get-up frame or something, but I'm hoping it's just due to lag.
2. That could just be because of online, but this one certainly isn't online-dependent. I'm having trouble pulling off EX wake-up attacks. And I mean getting the actual "wake-up" notification in training, not just doing an EX attack after you get up. That's easy-peazy. But actual wake-up attacks are quite inconsistent for me. I have a little more success offline than online, but still. One of the best wake-up options for my three mains (Sonya, Reptile, and Sub), is B,F+4 (Leg Grab and Slide). But what happens sometimes is I get a tech roll instead, and then just get tagged. The other times I either get the NORMAL (no-EX) wake-up, or just get nothing at all and get hit. I've literally been basically OHK'd in the corner a few times because I was stubborn and tried to EX wake-up after every knockdown, and did not get it ONCE. If I practice in training mode, I can get it MAYBE 6/10 times. I don't understand why NRS made the timing so weird for EX attacks compared to the normal ones. If someone could just tell me the proper timing or something, because I'm kinda clueless as to what it should be.
Any help would be immensely appreciated.
EDIT: Also, follow up question: is it impossible to perform a wake-up attack after a delayed get-up (laying down)?
