Tips
- 0
Steve is heavily reliant on punches; use f+2+3 Wheel Kick to parry his high or mid punches for a massive +51a advantage.
- 0
Asuka's b+1+3 Attack Reversal is active from frame 5 and can reverse Steve's high or mid attacks, making it a great tool against his fast strings.
- 0
Steve's b+1 Quick Hook is i13 and very dangerous on counter hit, but it is punishable at -14 on block if he doesn't transition to Flicker stance.
- 0
Use d+3+4 Double Lift Kicks to crush Steve's high pressure starting at frame 5, leading to a full combo on hit.
- 0
When Steve uses Ducking (f+3_4), he has high evasion; use df+4 or df+1 to check him with mids that have decent speed.
- 0
Steve's d+2 is -18 on block, meaning you can launch it with a delayed hopkick or ws3 for a full combo.
- 0
If Steve uses f,f,F+2 Eraser to gain +6 on block, respect the pressure but look for a high-crushing d+1+2 to catch him if he follows up with highs.
