Yoshimitsu vs Victor

VODs from Yoshimitsu's side

Tips

  • 0

    Use Flash (1+4) to interrupt Victor's close-range pressure, especially after blocking his jab (1) which leaves him at +1, as Flash's i6 startup can beat his follow-ups.

  • 0

    Victor's long-range f,f,F+2 is +2 on block; do not press buttons immediately after, but look to sidestep it as it is linear.

  • 0

    Victor's d+1+2 projectile is -9 on block, but if he uses the IAI.d+2 version, it becomes +4 or +5 on block, so respect the frame advantage if he is in Iai Stance.

  • 0

    Victor's sweep (db+4) is extremely risky at -26 on block; use a delayed hopkick or a powerful ws punisher for maximum damage.

  • 0

    Victor's Expulsion (u+1+2) is -20c on block; Yoshimitsu can punish this easily with a dash into a launcher or a long-range punisher.

  • 0

    Victor's f+1+2 (Durandal) is a Heat Engager that is +3 on block; be wary of his follow-up pressure and consider using b+3/b+4 Spinning Evade to reset to neutral.

  • 0

    Use Avoiding the Puddle (uf+4) to crush Victor's low weapon pokes like Good Manners (d+3) or Fine Salute (d+4), as both are punishable at -13 on block.
