- 0
Dragunov's Scimitar (df+2) and Ballistic Upper (ws2) are both -12 on block; use your i12 1+2 for a guaranteed punish.
- 0
Matterhorn (d+3+4) can go under many of Dragunov's high and mid pokes, but it is -21 on block, so use it sparingly as a high-risk read.
- 0
Dragunov's Blizzard Hammer (b+1+2) is +6 on block; if you block this, you must respect his follow-up as he has a massive frame advantage.
- 0
Dragunov's Clipping Sweep (db+3) is a very slow i27 low that is -26 on block; block it and use ws3 for an instant tornado launch.
- 0
His Russian Sickle (f,F+2) is -12 on block; punish it with 1+2 to push him back and reset the neutral game.
- 0
His Razer (d+2) is -13 on block; punish it consistently with your ws1,2 or ws4 to discourage him from using it.
- 0
Use your i14 f+1+2 to interrupt Dragunov's slower strings, as it is only -7 on block and transitions to Backturned (BT) on hit or block with B.
