RoBoBOBR Report post Posted January 1, 2015 Some punishes for Ky: - GS on block: K 236K RC... / K 2D / SS K 2D (easier on IB) - Stun Dipper on block: H 236K RC ... (easier on IB) - 5D on block is -5 only and packs a bit of pushback, so even on IB you can't really reach with much, so i say we BS it (red flash helps) and just go for 214KK afterwards. meaty 2K evades reversal DP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Fancypants Report post Posted January 6, 2015 Slayer 2H has been providing excellent results in the Ky matchup. My plan-A right now against Ky is to get close to Ky and throw 2H. It gets clean counter hits against 2K, 2D, and 2S, which are often some of Ky's favorite buttons. It's probably not as godlike as it feels right now, but if you're struggling against a Ky, try using 2H aggressively and see how he responds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fogelstrom Report post Posted January 6, 2015 2HS 2HS is a good tool in this matchup no doubt. If you crunch numbers for example 236K is -2 on block and KY 2D has 7F startup. If you do 2HS after blocked Mappa you will get CH since 2HS has feet invul from 5-14F. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
