    Hey man I was wondering what is a good way to go on about improving defense? This is one of my major problems as I get attacked by moves that go from high to low/mid.

    Honestly though, I really need help as even my spacing can use work too. Would probably help if I had a better understanding of the mechanics.

    Sorry for the late reply. Defense mainly comes with watching your opponents habits and string recognition.

    As for spacing you should take a look at some of the links I put in my Ein guide. There's a load of information on spacing and footsies contained in those links.

    Ah I see I know from watching your opponents patterns however, Im a bit unfamiliar with certain strings some people use that go from high high to mid. Maybe I should go over characters command training to get more familiar with everything?

    And I will be sure to check your thread out. Thanks for the info :)

    Hey, I had a question. How do you do that really fast backdash you use with Ein?

    Okay. I thought so but when you do it you move so quickly lol I always fumble somewhere and mess it up.

    It helps to set your sidestep to the button input. From there its all muscle memory.

    I was thinking, how do you think Ein vs Tina is in CQC?

    Tina's 1P and crushing mids are strong against Ein in CQC. Ein Can hold his own with the +1 from 2P IMO though. I would say she is slightly better than him in it due to her having better strings + the crushes.

    I was actually thinking it was pretty even but slightly in Tina's favor because of her i12 hold3p (I dont know his frames so I thought it was like Hitomi's lol). Anyway, who is Ein's most favorable MU? Or is all his MUs 5-5 and 6-4 (disfavor)?

    I think the Tina mu with Ein is even. I just think Tina is slightly better than him in CQC. So far the only advantage MUs I have for Ein are Brad Wong and Eliot. Everything else is Even and he has like 10 disadvantage MUs. I have a list in his forums.

    Hey I hope you don't mind answering a question I have, but I saw on JKT's profile where you mentioned there a shortcut to knowing the frames without having to memorize every single number. Is that true? Would love to know this shortcut.

    and usually moves that are +9 or greater come from stuns in my experience

    Yeah I think I feel the same way when keeping this mind. Knowing that I can punish a move with 7 frame grab if it really negative past -8 on block. Like if I see Kasumi's 66kk I already know it unsafe and punishable by a 7 frame grab.

    Yeah stuns I know give great advantage anywhere from +9 all the way up to +40. Though just going by stuff on block don't think anything goes past +9 well I think certain moves when charged give that type of advantage and I think Sarah too. I know MIla's 66p is +7 on block.

    Why do you think Ein is better than Lisa? Not disagreeing because I'm actually interested in this and want to hear your side.

    I guess I was moreso using the exp I had vs players that use her on PSN than looking at their actual tools.

    Ah ok. I was expecting a real discussion (honestly ready for war :p). Ein is better than her in a few places. Maybe spacing or something. He does have better stuns though, she really lacks in lift stuns and deep stuns.
    Tenryuga
    Tenryuga
    yes that much is true. As for the spacing I think they are both pretty good. Lisa has really strong tools for keepout and 1P while slow is a ranged high crush with string followups.
