Tips

  • 0

    Use 1+4 Flash (i6) to interrupt Claudio's pressure after his Jab (1) or f+2, as he often relies on the small frame advantage to continue his offense.

  • 0

    Claudio's b+1 is a homing mid but is -8 on block; use this opportunity to enter Kincho (1+2) or use a mixup while he is at a disadvantage.

  • 0

    Claudio's running 2 (f,f,F+2) is +6 on block; do not try to press buttons, instead use your backswing blow KIN.b+1+2 if you anticipate a follow-up.

  • 0

    Many of Claudio's Starburst finishers like f+1+2,STB.1+2 are -9 on block, making them safe for him but ending his turn.

  • 0

    Claudio's low options are limited; d+2,2 is -13 on block and can be punished by your ws1,1 or f,n,d,df+2.

  • 0

    If Claudio uses f+3 to track your movement, remember it is +1 on block; respect the frame advantage or use high-crushing lows like d+3.

  • 0

    Claudio's hopkick uf+4 is i15 and -13 on block; punish it consistently with your i12 df+4 or i11 2 to discourage him.
