VODs from Asuka's side

Tips

  • 0

    Reina's Sentai (SEN) transitions from df+1 or f,F+2 can be checked; if she enters SEN from a blocked df+1, Asuka's i13 df+1 will interrupt most options as Reina cannot block until frame 15.

  • 0

    Use Asuka's b+1+3 Attack Reversal to catch Reina's frequent high/mid pressure, but be wary of her unbreakable WRA.1+3 throw which starts in i16.

  • 0

    Reina's Raiden (f,F+2) is -9 on block, making it safe, but if she transitions to SEN, she is at +2, so respect the follow-up or use a high-crushing move.

  • 0

    Punish Reina's blocked Silver Gleam (uf+4 or ub+4) with a i13 ws2, as both versions are -13 on block.

  • 0

    Reina's common low, db+2, is -16 on block, allowing Asuka to launch for a full combo with ws3.

  • 0

    If Reina uses her i11 Electric Wind God Fist (f,n,d,df:2), it is +5 on block; do not attempt to interrupt with slow moves like f+2 which is i17.

  • 0

    Reina's SEN.3+4 Yaksha Sweep is a staggered low at -29 on block; block the first hit and punish heavily with a delayed hopkick or ws3.

  • 0

    Watch for Reina's WRA.3,4 Hell Axle; while the string jails and is +6 on block, the initial WRA.3 is i28 and can be interrupted if she enters the stance manually.
