If Phase-4 is juggling you, she's either stunned you or launched you. If you get launched, the combo is obviously guaranteed. If you get stunned, things can get very dicey because Phase-4 teleport mix-ups during stun can be quite scary. Your best bet is to read your opponent's stun extension patterns if you do get stunned.

Though of course, the best way to avoid the "chain combos" is to avoid getting stunned in the first place. Try to fight her around mid-range or further out to limit her neutral options to open you up. Also Phase-4's Mid K & High K launchers are her better ones.

learn her strings, it's the only way. between plenty of online play and maybe going through her command training, you be fully aware of what her options are. After that, while you're fighting phase 4's you'll want to take note of what strings they tend to use, allowing you to make better reads and break out of their pressure with greater ease

Just like @Force_of_Nature said.... the key is too avoid getting stun in the first place.... don't get too excited and try to Strike out of disadvantage. Phase 4 players like to punish people who don't respect her advantage.

Uhm.... whether or not any character wants you to hold really depends on the Player. In Phase 4's Case both her Stuns and Throws are lethal so What each Phase 4 player tries to to bait out of you is going to vary quite abit.

Heres my advice.... pay close attention to when you hold.... some players are more than happy to wait until the hold happens before they actually begin input the throw commanf. Its important to know if you're dealing with a Guesser or a Reactor... uhm Reactress ? You know what I mean. :)

whether or not the phase 4 wants to bait holds is more player dependent than character dependent. Some players like to bait hold with specific stuns, others like to keep you guessing by using a variety of strings. It all comes down to noticing your opponents tendencies, noticing their patterns, and making the correct read to punish them for it.

At the end of the day, regardless of what character you're facing, knowing their strings, reacting appropriately, and catching on to player tendencies will carry you very far. It's not easy, but no one ever said it would be

Don't forget to check your Environment.

If theres a ceiling..... that might entice Phase 4 Player's into throwing more than they usually would..... for some players its so irresistible.

Sorry for late reply. Hello me BBoy Dragon one of best Phase-4 in the world... Phase-4 biggest weakness is that she can't open you up if you block all day. She has no mid to low mix up game that gives her a stun to open you up. She relays on counter hit. Some of her stuff can be stagger escaped out of when she starts teleportation.
