Tips
- 0
Yoshimitsu's 1+4 Flash is i6 startup; be extremely careful using moves that leave you at minor disadvantage, as he can interrupt strings that are normally safe.
- 0
If Yoshimitsu enters Flea stance (d+1+2), use low-hitting mids or fast lows to beat his options, but watch for FLE.2 which is a sliding low that is -12 on block.
- 0
Yoshimitsu's f,n,d,df+2 (Flashing Steel) is a fast i14 mid launcher but is -13 on block, making it a key move to bait and punish.
- 0
Interrupt Yoshimitsu's DGF.1 (Dragonfly Blade) startup if possible, as it is i30 and leaves him at -2c on block.
- 0
Raven's b+1 is a great tool here; it is +7c on block and forces a crouch, limiting Yoshimitsu's ability to use high-evasive maneuvers.
- 0
Use Raven's BT.f+1+2 parry to catch Yoshimitsu's predictable mid/high pokes when he tries to check your backturn transitions.
- 0
When Yoshimitsu is in No Sword Stance (NSS), his Flash becomes i8, giving you slightly more breathing room for pressure compared to his 1SS version.
