VODs from Steve's side

Tips

  • 0

    Shaheen's d+3 and FC.df+4 are -14 on block; use 1+2 to punish these lows reliably.

  • 0

    Shaheen's df+1 is a strong mid, but it is -1 on block; use your i10 jab (1) or i13 b+1 to take back your turn.

  • 0

    Watch out for Shaheen's b+4, which is a -15 mid launcher; if you block it, use your most powerful i15 punisher or FC.df+2.

  • 0

    Shaheen often uses SNK.4 (i20 low) from stance; it is -14 on block, allowing for a Sonic Fang (1+2) punish.

  • 0

    Shaheen's f,f,F+2 is +5 on block; do not press buttons afterward, as he can follow up with fast mids or stance pressure.

  • 0

    Shaheen's slide (FC.df,d,DF+3) is extremely unsafe at -23 on block; block low and use a delayed hopkick or your best WS launcher.

  • 0

    Shaheen's uf+4 hopkick is -13 on block; punish it consistently with 1,1,2 for a reliable i13 response.
