[MATCH-UP] Xiba

Please, feel free to discuss anti Xiba strats here.

You can grab him after 6AK or 6BK. He's within your throw range and probably doesn't realize it at first. Of course you can just 1K interrupt also.

3K for + frames.

He doesn't step that? I'm at work so I can't test it.

Well, Nightmare's 3K works at any rate. If FIME were to share his super sekrit technique for shaving 2 off of agA's impact frames, Sieg might be able to sneak an agA in there too.

 

[Slade]

Okay, I tested it. Because DIME is a faggot and wouldn't reveal his amazing, mindblowing super secret technique for buffering agA, I found out that the super secret amazing tech is just doing agA really fast. Go throw rocks at DIME.
Also, this technique for agA means Sieg can punish -16 with agA and NM can punish -15 with agA. This means if you're a Pyrrha player or whatever going up against DIME at FR, keep in mind that he can agA punish stuff like Pyrrha's 3B. HE REALLY DOESN'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW THIS.

Anyways:
6BK on block
iagA trades with kick
agA beats kick
6A beats kick
All lose to 6B → CE (aGI activates)
All beat 6B → Rem (aGI is too slow)

6AK on block
iagA loses to kick
agA trades with kick
6A beats kick
All lose to 6A → CE (aGI activates)
All beat 6A → Rem (aGI is too slow)

For A+BB and A+BBK, iagA and 3A both punish A+BB and interrupt A+BBK.


Also, 3K doesn't work. It tracks the opposite direction that NM's does.

PS: I'm serious about the rocks thing, he deserves it.

 

[DeathInMyEyes]

I hate you.

 

[Sandman]

But 1K beats everything, right? Xiba's CE only GI's highs and mids, right?

Yeah.

Also, you get a free 3(B) → SCH B if Xiba does any of the following on block:
3BKK
3(B) → Rem B
3(B) → Rem K

And a free iWR (B) → SCH B if he does:
3BKK
3(B) → Rem K
3(B) → Rem A_Rem AK

As always, be cautious when Xiba has a bar stocked.

 

[Twiz]

Slade it took you this long to figure out how to get that down? WTF man?

What, the agA punish stuff? I didn't care about it enough to test it.

 

[Sandman]

Yeah.

Also, you get a free 3(B) → SCH B if Xiba does any of the following on block:
3BKK
3(B) → Rem B
3(B) → Rem K

And a free iWR (B) → SCH B if he does:
3BKK
3(B) → Rem K
3(B) → Rem A_Rem AK

As always, be cautious when Xiba has a bar stocked.

Wait...Xiba can't do 3BKK on block...

 

[Slade]

Wait...Xiba can't do 3BKK on block...

3BK. You know what I mean. Besides, if you're going to input the 2nd you might as well input the 3rd.
