Xiba 6A is -12 so you can punish with AA, it also beats 6AK .
Pat's 4K interrupts Xiba's 6BK and 6AK.
Xiba cant punish anything -12 or lower.
when you break his low attack 1A+B or 3A+B he is at +4 (most Xibas 6B here)

• 3AA is -19, but it blows Pat out of punish range I think, learn to JG the 2nd hit and punish.
• Shouldn't really be falling for 3A2A mixups...block 2nd hit and get a free WR punish or Jump the 2nd hit.
• blocking 3B gives you a free TC punish
• NM's don't use 33B BE as much these days, but learn to JG 2nd hit and punish
• AAB is -14 on block, punish with JS:B, alternatively sidestep 3rd hit or duck 2nd hit for free WR punish
• 22AA mixups are deadly when used right, however: JG 2nd hit and punish/ interrupt GS transition.

Xiba 6A is -12 so you can punish with AA, it also beats 6AK .
Pat's 4K interrupts Xiba's 6BK and 6AK.
Xiba cant punish anything -12 or lower.
when you break his low attack 1A+B or 3A+B he is at +4 (most Xibas 6B here)

The frame advantage on 3A+B is variable depending on when you break.
