Thoughts on the jab feint- body cross

Its even faster to feint the jab moving backwards then do the straight moving forwards. Its more than this one combo

FWD Lunge range is scaling depends on the distance to the opponent (closer to the opponent = has more range) - btw this is WRONG too! b/c is unrealistic and makes difficult for zoning by Lunges. RESUME: i agree, that it needs to be fixed (by buffering and fixing FWD Lunge and some tuning FWD Jab/straight feints too).

Practice mode doesn't allow for the AI to utilize get, which affects testing how it ignores the range reduction when backing up from a jab body Straight. When you back up from a jab body straight, combo or not, it will not track, when you use the feint with proper timing, it literally slides you much further than the intended distance.

Like it was said in the thread, block the cross and fire back a straight shot.
now deel the cross will be a mind game affair.
