I miss Akira's 2P. I used to get so many people with the 2P --> 66P counter hit shenanigans back in 5. Good times.

Momiji & Phase-4 have i12 2P's also. Ayane still has the most badass i12 2P though. It's basically a "Get the Fuck Back!" low jab. Real talk, we need the VF's back in DOA.

oh yeah, phase having a i12 2p makes sense, and I forgot Momiji had one, but yeah i12 frame 2p's can be quite oppressive, ppl sleep on them but they are right up there with i9 jabs and i11 mids in terms of how much control they exert

Sexism more like it. I mean they took away Zack's 9F jab, and how they made Nyo's hell stab (stolen from Bass) a 10F, and left Bass' alone as if 12F is 'fine'.

dayum, I forgot Zack used to be a 9framer up until DOA4 where they took it away, guess they want the 9 frame jab privilege just for the ladies huh? as for Nyo, well shoo, faster hellstab aside, take comfort in that Bass CQC > Nyo in CQC by a long shot
