So I've noticed within the last, few days that Ivy's standing B+K, when hitting an airborne opponent, no longer pops them up over your head (as could be seen in Jaiimy's video at
2:34).
Instead, it appears to pop an airborne opponent straight up — with Ivy's back to them, allowing you to follow up with her back-facing A to flip 'em into an upside down spin, finishing with moves such as 1B+K, her new Soul Charge Attack… or, if they attempt an Ukemi, 22/88(B) for the pop-up… with just about whatever follow up you want, like SE 6B, 4A, 6B8 — I can't get 4(A) into SE BBBBB or 8B+K consistently enough, but that's just me, although I can occasionally pull off a CE out of SE.
I take it this is what's referred to as an "Ukemi trap?" I mean I'm the kind of "casual" who never learned the terminology past movement syntax, I just went with "what worked."
…and, this alteration seems as though it can work
really well compared to before; now I just need to find an adequate pop-up to use
besides 9B+K. I've only managed to pull this off
once online (haven't been playing Ivy all that much, lately), and I'm still exploring different training options to see what could go wrong.
EDIT: So I was messing around in training earlier and it would seem that a counter-clockwise 22/88(B) works best; the clockwise 22/88(B) consistently missed against a Back or Right Ukemi.
