Tips
- 0
Be extremely careful with pressure at -6 or worse, as Yoshimitsu's 1+4 (Flash) starts in 6 frames and can launch you for attempting to continue your turn.
- 0
Use f,F+2 (Demon's Paw) as a safe mid poke at range; it is -8 on block and acts as a Heat Engager to start your offense.
- 0
When Yoshimitsu enters DGF (Dragonfly), you can challenge with uf+4 (Wraith Kick) or 1 to float him, but watch for DGF.2 which is +4 on block.
- 0
If Yoshimitsu whiffs a move in NSS (No Sword Stance), be aware that his NSS.1+4 (Flash) is slower at i8 but still very dangerous.
- 0
Use b+1 to track Yoshimitsu's sidestepping, as it completely tracks SSR/SWR and is only -6 on block.
- 0
If Yoshimitsu uses 4~3 (Kangaroo Kick), punish it on block with ws4 or ws1, as it is -13 and will launch him for a full combo if you use a faster i13 punisher like ws1,2.
