Tips
- 0
When Zafina uses d+3 to enter Mantis (MNT) stance, she is -15 on block, allowing you to punish with 1,2 or even ws2 if you crouch the transition.
- 0
Use Clive's b+4 to check Zafina's low-profile stances; it is a safe i18 mid (-9 on block) that forces a crouch on hit, limiting her immediate options.
- 0
If Zafina relies on f,f,F+3 to approach, remember it is +7 on block, but the SCR transition is only +3; respect the frame advantage but don't let her loop it for free.
- 0
Clive's df+1 is a vital i14 mid check (-3 on block) to keep Zafina from freely using her evasive d+3 or d+4 lows.
- 0
Watch for Zafina's Mantis df+1 Heat Engager; it is +10 on block, meaning you must respect her follow-up pressure entirely.
- 0
Use Clive's f,f+1+2 to maintain advantage; at +3 on block, it beats Zafina's i10 jabs and keeps her pinned down.
