4A+B Raph's AGI

i'm having such a hard time with landing this. it's not instantaneous like setsuka's or sophitia's so it has a weird timing plus i think it only GI's horizontals, correct?
 
No GI is in instantaneous, just varying degrees of start up. The start up is in fact the same as setsuka's A+B and only one frame slower than sophie's. Yes it only GIs high/mid/smid/slow horizontals that I know of.
 
In addition, it's useless against a decent player because if you successfully GI with it, your automatic attack can be GI'd right back at you.

I would say the guaranteed JI ones are the most useful out of all of them, since they're a lot harder to impact back. However, do note that some of these are strings that are Mid-High, and you would get more damage off of 4B and its combos.

Not useless, but very niche. However, this has inspired me to do a string defense study, on what the best options are against any given string. We'll see where that inspiration leads me.
 
Heaton : good job.. can you specify which of these end in mid hori strings ? My knowledge of non-raph characters are not up to snuff
 
REALLY ONLY FOR THESE MOVES ?
I THOUGHT it would be more and more MOVES?

I'm going to assume english isn't your first language right now, so i'll try to simplify my explanation

1) Heaton kindly provided a list of strings that you can 4A+B at the end, because strings are easy to recognize
2) Any weapon attack that is special low, special mid, mid or high horizontal can be GI'd, and that list is just some of the more recognizable strings
3) Bad way to bump up your post count with random capslocks

You are right .Thank you for your explanation and attention.
