Introduction

Testament favored, but only slightly. Use jK, jS, air sword to disarm nets. Your air buttons are better than theirs. Air sword can be used as a poke if done low enough.

Do not get greedy with nukes without FRC since EXE beast will punish you for setting more than one nuke in neutral. Use Michael Blade to punish EXE beast from anywhere on the screen. Play around the range of your 2D (it can low profile Testament's f.S, which is one of their main neutral tools) and try to score a knockdown into nuke pressure. Staying too far from Testament will just force you to take EXE best pressure and give them a chance to set more nets/trees. Badlands can punish P nuke if you set the nuke too close to them.

Don't crouch under the FB Skull, you will be stuck. Try to dance around it. If you get cursed, try to either time the curse out or land a stray hit to end it. If you have meter you can also Dead Angle to end the curse. Try to not stay on the ground when cursed, Saperia Trance is sometimes helpful in escaping setups into the curse unblockable.

Justice has an OS against Warrant, whenever you try to hit Testament with a special cancellable normal just input 214P. If Testament counters they'll switch sides and VA triggers giving you a full punish. Testament can use Warrant in neutral to call out some of your ground buttons (f.S and a spaced 6H for example), and on wakeup to call out mistimed meaties so keep this OS in mind. Video: Warrant OS.
