Tips and Tricks

Shirogane's DP vs Supers (from YS)

In all the cases when "Neither gets hit", the player doing the super can DHC. Depending on the timing, the DHC may get hit or punish you (most likely the second option).

If the opponent is far enough away they can DHC to hit Shirogane. DP can still hit the opponent's 1st character after they DHC. [DP versus DHC at range]

DP beats all unmentioned supers.
