Okay wasn't sure if command grabs beat it out too.

If Kanji is doing jump chair into air dive down really low to the ground, do I still have time to block chair high, and go to crouch quickly enough so as to not get hit by the dive?

The only way I know to avoid that air move is crouching.

It depends. I'm a kanji user and it feels like, depending on their distance and whether they're doing 214 a or b, there may be enough time to still get the grab. However, I've found that when actually getting the hit with the chair, there ISN'T enough time to chain the air grab unless the target is also in the air. One of the hardest things I have to do is stop myself from muscle memorying 214a in the corner since most of the time, it won't connect.

As for wake up grab, I've been told that the only thing that can beat wake up jump is his EX_grab, but that seems to be a half truth since even when I do ex grab, It still misses about 25% of the time.

Disconnected again :|

GGs though milk. I really appreciate you hanging around to let me learn the matchup
 
Sorry I don't have time stamps but I recommend going through the Levelup Archive and watching The Biter, he did extremely well with Kanji in yesterday's tournament. http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive

I just finished skipping through that archive, and I've got some time stamps:
http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive/b/328428130?t=194m35s
http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive/b/328428130?t=249m25s
http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive/b/328428130?t=305m35s
http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive/b/328428130?t=323m25s
http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive/b/328428130?t=350m50s

But I can't get any sound with them. It might be the timestamp bug on Twitch, or maybe I'm just doing it wrong, I don't know. The Biter's sets are at 3:14:38, 4:09:25, 5:05:42, 5:23:25 and 5:50:50 if any of you folks want to search for them yourself. They're pretty good, and he's got some nice delayed throw setups.

gonna take a minute to grab some food real quick. i'm cool to hop in again but we just played about 20+ matches of just aki/liz - even some randoms in between to switch it up would be good lol

welp, mastered the basic 7k SMP Loop for Naoto. Can even start it on Jump in for more damage and a slightly easier approach to it.
 
Alright haha. Don't expect too much from me though. :p

That IAD jump A =X. I had so many games but i fucked up. That gold burst should of been a little later so it avoid the flames but I did it to early. and other random shittttttt.

GG

edit
Afterawhile I was just making mistakes during the later games. F =(

Trying Mitsuru's challenges. How the heck do I do #13? Sweep then Coup Droit, but it gives me no time to do this!

EDIT: I'm psyched at the thought of being half decent at a fighting game, I just hate losing. I better get used to it though, haha.

This is going to go poorly.

never fought a liz before.

his liz pressure is actually pretty solid. took me a good 10 games to even understand what to block and how

then he loses to the freest of yus

omg

you don't get to lose to a scrub after that match we just had

wtf

no

i wont accept it
