People underestimate running into b2. B2 is 17 frames, has massive reach and is -14 on block. Even though it's -14 it can be a tough punish because of the push back. The thing is it's so fast and people respect it which practically lets you in for free. Trying to move backwards after a d4 and etc is risky which more often than not leads to blocking and eventually mistakes.

I think that because b2 moves you so far forward, that it's only safe at about max range. Otherwise I think we'll be eating 30%.
