Fair enough. I just was hoping for a quicker response by asking here - I have a matchup against an Aeon player on Friday.
I'd just say know your punishes. Know which moves transition into SW (flying stance). You can step the dive and 3B him for a combo everytime with some practice. There's really no need to duck vs him either, but if you do block a low, I think most are FC 3B punishable. 6KK at the worst.
I'm not sure if his WS game is very strong at all. If it's not, feel free to abuse 6B+K if you don't know what else to use. That's all I got.
EDIT: It looks like 4A is quite useful against Aeon after blocking his safe mids. It places Leixia at a desirable distance that gives her lots of options for reverse mixups.
but if you do block a low, I think most are FC 3B punishable. 6KK at the worst.
Actually 11K is the only low that you'll be able to punish with FC 3B.
Even with that though, the main problem I saw with Aeon is his hitbox when he attacks or backdashes. Felt like nothing could hit him at times that would easily hit other characters.
You act as if Aeon's 66A is godlike. Just block punish it.:( I hate aeon too. I'm just glad when you have CE, he can't do 66a all willy nilly.
