Ladies and gentlemen now that's how you explain yourself.It can stop step to degree, doesn't seem to have the range issues of AA that cause the 2nd A of AA to whiff even though the first hit hit, the B can actually stop a TC, they DO have to block L so until they block it proficiently it's free damage, it's even on hit, relatively safe on block, AFAIK they're jailed into blocking the L (it may be jGable or GI'able I dunno), and after you do it a bit you can then do empty A's and give yourself some flexibility afterwards due to the inherent speed of the foot poke forcing them to react, it's annoying.
Basically, in many situations you can throw it out and be fairly safe in the grand scheme of things and since it's even on hit you can take the mental advantage to give yourself some breathing room or set up for GI baits. It's not an abusable move but used off and on again you can get some mileage out of the move. I think it's nearly a life save vs. aPat and O.pyszzzha since every God damn move they do is TC, the B will often sometimes tag them in the nick of time.
Basically, mixing up with A, AA, and AB for ranging should be a fundamental part of every Raph's gameplan.
