Pick H.smoke, run under him and throw him, jump over him and throw him, then run under him and throw him.

He'll stop that shit real quick.

Or just learn some good aaHP game which is a personal fav. and universal

Exactly, but like H.Smoke, do the same with Jax and his backbreaker.

The aaHP is vital. At least a standing HK.

Air throw...run under him so his jump kick can't hit you and jump and hit block.

The easiest anit air moves in my opinion are...

1.) Standing HK very simple and effective. Leaves almost no room for being hit. Uppercut is about as easy.

2.) Back up or run under and sweep. A little bit more challenging since you have to commit to running under.

3.) Back up or run under roundhouse kick. My personal favorite since it leaves barely any room to be hit and with the right character can result in a huge counter.

4.) Air Throw. Easier with Robot Smoke then Jax then Kano then Smoke/Scorpion.

5.) HP. Granted, I use aaHP all of the time, but I believe that it is very difficult for someone to counter if they are not used to doing so. Kabal has the most ridiculous HP I have encountered and can HP spin so easily it is childs play. Robot Smoke is also very easy for me to HP, TP, HP or JK, Spear, Invis, Combo.

Robot smoke in general is basically an anti air character. His Air Throw can be linked with a JK before for big damage. If he jumps back you can get a free TP for 50% plus. His uppercut is very good.

Air throws, running under (dodge the JK) and counter with air throw or a tactic that's worked for me with jumpers.

Up and LK or HK are great against jump kickers, if you get the timing right you'll snuff them right out of the air.

Pick Robo smoke, turn invisible and mix up the spear with teleport punch.

Wait until he's in the air and you'll nail him every time when timed right with the teleport punch.

If he's far away and jumping towards you, wait and bait him to jump then just snag his ass with the spear. He'll be screwed.


These are some things I use against jumpers that work.

Another thing is if they are jumping from a bit of a distance, walk back out of the way of the jump kick/punch then run in and combo. Works pretty good.

Tim no need to police him, the situation will be taken care of soon enough. These are simple internet etiquette issues he has and I'm seeing a massive amount of failure.

hey yall, new to this site and glad to be here

i think it's important to note that some chatrs. jk's have higher priority (bigger hitbox) than others and thus are more difficult to anti air. Sheeva imo has the best jump kick, can be very hard to aa unless timed perfectly.

the female ninjas standing hk isn't the greatest, it arcs kind of low and gets beat a lot...male ninjas have good standing hk, very reliable

hope everyone here is getting umk for ds. iv'e played some on xbl but im pretty frustrated with lag, hoping somehow lag will be better on ds.
