Doing some training mode experimenting, I'm not sure punishing -15 moves on block is even possible. If it is, we're talking 1 frame timing stuff. I was able to punish -16 moves (Cervy's 44aB), but the timing was tight. I haven't looked to see how many important moves are -18, but I could imagine players effectively punishing -18 or even -17 (like Yoshi's 3B) moves on block. But like Kowtow said, until we see it in practice...
Me personally, this looks like something I wouldn't try if I had a huge lead in a round because the risk of messing up is huge. On the other hand, if I'm way behind in a round, go for it. The combo might be what I'd need to turn the tide.
