VODs from Kunimitsu's side

Tips

  • 0

    Yoshimitsu's Flash (1+4) is extremely fast at i6~9 startup; avoid using strings with large gaps or high recovery like 1,1,4 which is -15 to interrupt.

  • 0

    Punish Yoshimitsu's Rising Knee (uf+3) or Kangaroo Kick (4~3) with your i13 f+2 or df+4, as both his moves are -13 on block.

  • 0

    If Yoshimitsu enters Flea (d+1+2), use weapon moves like df+2 or f,F+2 to hit him, as Flea has no standing block and is vulnerable to mids.

  • 0

    Watch for Yoshimitsu's f,F+4 (Fubuki) which is i15~16 and safe at -6; do not try to press buttons immediately after blocking it.

  • 0

    Use your i10 jab (1) to check his Dragonfly (u+1+2) transitions, as many of his entries like f,f,F+3 leave him at +5g but still vulnerable to quick highs.

  • 0

    Be careful with your own db+3,3,3,3,3,3 sweep; it is -47 on block, giving Yoshimitsu enough time to land even his slowest unblockables.
