Shao stand 2 makes me laugh with how much it destroys neutral against most characters, the fact its 0 block and spamable is just the icing on the cake😂
I love abusing and conditioning people with stand 2. Stand 2 grab, stand 2 down 1, stand 2 back 4, stand 2 forward 2 stand 2 back 1 I know it can be obnoxious but hey that's basically how you have to play him. Harass people with stand 2, back 1 and back 3 . Then when conditioned back 2 and check em with stand 2 to see if they press on plus frames.
Hitting mashers with that mid is probably one of the hardest thing shao players will have to get good at hopefully they bless us in the patch and make it better. Thanks for the video good luck at evo if your going
yeah mastering the hit confirm on that button is damn near impossible😭you gotta have such insane reaction, if they made the secone button able to special cancel it would be so much better
Been mostly playing Shao/sub zero and man this team is a lot of fun. The set play with Shao/Sub is pretty crwzy once you get it going. Shao/Sub has a vortex. When you end combos in stand 2 down back 3 it l puts u right in there face for an axless 50/50 do back 3 into freeze or foward 2 into stand 2 freeze. Call the ax back 22 down back 3 al down fowaard 4 and then repeat the process.
With Shao/sub i founf out occasionally throwing out cold shoulder kameo (back kameo) can allow you to get the ax down; and if sed they try and challenge do ax lay down straight into mb down foward 1 for armored plus franes. You can also do foward 4 (which is another mid but it is kind of slow on start up) into ax lay down into mb down foward 1 to help you get in
great video,btw this down attacks put me in a risky punishble situation to counter them. cause Shao needs more mid-fast moves, he really needs a good kameo to make it up.
This is a bit unrelated to the video, but wouldn’t it be cool if after EX Klassic Kahn, he could do his low ground pound to keep himself in Axe stance, or the overhead power strike to go into no axe. It may not have practical use but it’s an option for those who prefer one stance over another 🤔 Or perhaps in general, after certain strings where he wails the axe into the opponent on the ground, like F2 1+3 or B3 1+3 he can lay down the axe and be in no axe without having to go into Power Strike
