Tidbits: X's Command grab is super linear WTF?! It can be stepped and 8wr on BOTH sides! How gay is that?
Also isnt it weird how 66A+K doesn't track a damn thing? or 4A+k or even 11A+K or even 2A+K. The animations of those moves suggest other wise.

Also, most character in SC are weak to SS left, but X is very strong in this department. She is actually weaker to right step/8wr.

Moves That stand out:
4k is bread and Butter for X imo. 14 frame High, -2 on block, Tracks every direction, wall splats, rings out, tech trap for crouch grab, can be done from crouching, 3b follow up for punishment.

6A- A truly underrated and underused move. 15 Frame high tracks every direction, +8 on hit and Ch! Leaves the enemy back turned, can be done from crouching. -2 on block and pushes back on block.

44AA- I know this move has been praised already, but ill praise it again. This move is +3 on block +7 on Ch, Tc's, Tracks Every direction, can cancel into SXS, my only gripe with this move is the 2nd hit is a high.

Maybe this'll finally convince people that X's aK is a good move, lol.

I think if the input wasnt so annoying people would use it more. But personally is one of my favorite moves. It Tc's in the 4th frame, Tech jumps, good range, its a kick so avoids alot of auto Gi attacks like Asura dance, its +4 on hit, totally safe on block, has low or Mid follow up, cancels into SXS, and tracks Left and Right Steppers.

Imo your opponent would be stupid to step X, her zone control is way to good, and she can do it safely, and if your being stepped easy, add these moves to your game play. More power to X players! lol
