CE -20: 3B
|PREP stance|
Note: Step left, block against stance is a safest way to beat it. GS 3B will beat all Prep options but will lose to SE transition. 33B will beat all but Prep K.
Transitions:
6A(B), 6B(B), 3(B), 4(B), 66(B) (this transition is +7, so you’ll have to learn to GS B+K on reaction), PREP A(B), PREP B(B)
Moves:
PREP AB: Same as 6AB
PREP BBB -16: Last hit is steppable on block. Punish with BB or GS 3A
PREP K -16: BB

All rem options can be stepped right both on hit and block (even AK) and this grants you backthrow in case of REM K and 33B otherwise. If you have good reaction, you can try 6K or if you were ducking try wsB. You can't interrupt 3(B) transition this way though.

|GS stance|
Note: GS A aGI all H&M except horizontals
Transitions:
1A6 – JS 4A; GS FC 2A
66A6 – JS 6AB; GS 3A. However it's safe if NM doesn't go into GS. Good thing will be to learn to duck 66A on reaction
22AA6 – Step left on reaction for backthrow
33B6 – JS 6AB; GS 3A to either interrupt or punish
Moves:
GS A -16: High, punish with BB or GS 3A
GS B -9: Backdash against GS B6 will make NM whiff everything
GS K -18: 3B. Duck against BE version
|NSS stance|
Note: GS A aGI all H&M except horizontals
Transitions:
(A) – Backdash will make NM whiff everything but NSS which will be blocked and punished
6(B) – 3B. NM can't step it from regular version
3(B) – wsB
ws(B) – 6K will interrupt all NSS options but will lose to GS transition. GS 3B will beat all
44(B) – wsB but NM can step it
4B(B) – JS AA; GS 3B
Moves:

|Mixup opportunities|
Mitsu can 4B of all of his safe moves. To counter 4B use 33K (yes, 33). In JS most of the time you will launch with second hit.

All rem options can be stepped right both on hit and block (even AK) and this grants you backthrow in case of REM K and 33B otherwise. If you have good reaction, you can try 6K or if you were ducking try wsB. You can't interrupt 3(B) transition this way though.

Transitions:

Moves:

3(B) – wsB
ws(B) – 6K will interrupt all NSS options but will lose to GS transition. GS 3B will beat all
