#1 General tips:

-

Offense:
-

Defense:
-Don't forget that you can back-tech after a normal knockdown (pp), good way to make sure your opponent doesn't get good oki on you!
-Hold Parry when baiting a super, gives you better punishes and drive gauge.

OSs:

#3 Matchups:

My worst Lily-matchups (in order, kinda):
-


#=======================================================================================#

#=======================================================================================#


#Cammy mu:

-roundstart: low-block and wait, or you will eat a spiral-arrow

Spiral-Arrow:
-always block low in neutral and stutter-step forward, you can' react to this
-they are only safe when they are spaced out, in which case take back your turn.
-they are at least -12 oB up-close
-if you aren't sure use your fastest button but be ready if it hits, but about a dash away they are punishable
-heavy version can be held to delay

Spin-Knuckle:
-the light one is very fast, but still minus and goes about a dash, but if you are ready you can perfect-parry it but do it earlier than you think you need
-the medium one hits in starting-position, but also still minus, and a bit slower, this one should be possible to perfect-parry
-the heavy one is plus, about same length as medium but she grunts, if you are fast you can try to poke her out with your fastest button

Hooligan:
-has a low attack where she slides to the ground (is safe)
-she can just do her divekick (not an overhead)
-has the overhead where she stops in the air and makes a circle, it is only punishable if she does it really high
-and has the grab, but it only hits on standing! So best option is defaulting to crouch-block and try to react to the overhead!
-she can also feint it by dropping back to the ground early
-she can delay it completely where she crouches down for a bit and then really quickly jumps forward
-DI blows up everything but the grab and faint, otherwise you can try anti-airing her
-She can easily make a setup with it after landing a Spiral-Arrow, it's basically free.
 As far as I see it it is an actual 50/50, if you block low the overhead hits you, and if you don't then the grab hits you.
 You can't DI the grab and she can also just feint.
 You can't fuzzy, because the overhad and the grab hit at about the same time.
 Only way is to use a reversal.

Divekick:
-Always block it high, it can be the difference between her being punishable or not
-Punishable is when she hits you at your head height (Lily), she is at least -4 oB then.
-If she hits your toes up to shins, she can be +1 oB.
-the strengths change the angle at which she comes down, framedata is the same
-she can only do it in forward-jumps, so don't worry about it when you have her in the corner

as Lily:
-use cr.Hp > CS-M to anti-air her, with CS-H you might sweep under her

#Chun-Li mu:

#=======================================================================================#


#Deejay mu:

-

Jus Cool Stance:
-Has a low (safe), a high (safe), a launcher, a backsway, a projectile-invul forward dash.
-I suppose the idea is to perfect-parry the strikes, reacting to the backsway.
-Don't DI it, the low and feint will blow it up.

#Jamie mu:

-the full-screen L2 into teleport is NOT real, you first have to low-block then high block and I think then jump out
 check x video again for it

#=======================================================================================#


#JP mu:

-

#=======================================================================================#


#Juri mu:

-DP-ender a common setup for her is DR into overhead
 though as an anti-air into DR-overhead is not a real setup, you can DI it testme

#=======================================================================================#


#Ken mu:

Dragonlash:
-expect it at round-start
-light one is -4 oB and fastest one, he shouts something like "hurya!" and it has starting-position range
-medium one is -8 oB if you block standing and -7 oB if you block crouching, goes about 2.5 dashes far, he shouts kinda like "duah!"
-heavy one is the only one plus, if you block standing it's +1 oB and crouching it's +2 oB, he shouts "How's this?"
-don't try to DI any of it, it's not reactable, you can only do it as a call-out, has about same range as medium one

Jinrai Kick:
-is the taek-wan-do kick where he kicks you with his backfoot
-has a low and an overhead follow-up
-the low is -5f but has pushback so basically not punishable
-the low and overhead can be DI'd, but he can also do nothing which is then though punishable with -11 oB
-so basically safest is trying to perfect-parry once you see the kick, unless you want to make a gamble with DI,
 you know what just DI till he shows otherwise because most Ken's I've seen just always do a follow-up

#=======================================================================================#


#Kimberly mu:

-

#=======================================================================================#


#Luke mu:

-Target-combo he usually ends in sand, which you can DI, but he can do OD-version and then blow you up
-Heavy-punch into sand don't use DI

#=======================================================================================#


#Manon mu:
-she has a huge jump-in kick, that they will use extremely early in the jump, so use a fast anti-air normal
-always be ready to hold upwards when she has you in a combo, she does only like three hits and then does the reset
-sweep reaches from starting-position, but is very punishable
-after a command-grab, she can do a really far overhead

Rashid mu:

-dude's flying around everywhere
-he can jump really really high, and then also do a flip or even another one
-has a fullscreen neutral-skip nearly instant horizontal-kick

Spinning Mixer:
-light one stays on ground and he shouts "you're mine", it's safe but -3 oB so you basically get a mix-up

Eagle Spike:
-light one hits right about starting-range, it has a bit of a delay, he jumps right back to start position when blocked
-medium one is basically instant, unreactable and you gotta already be blocking, goes at least 3 dashes wide
-heavy has a tiny delay but is still basically instant, also knocks you back fullscreen if it hits
-OD-version he can even combo from
-don't try DI, only the medium one gets hit and also only if you do it as a guess
-if you perfect-parry it, you still need to DR to get his backjump, much like Blanka-ball
-honestly makes me wonder how they thought that one should play against him, just throwing in random parries in neutral?

Supers:
-one goes nearly fullscreen

#Zangief mu:

-has a ridiculous jumping heavy kick, you have to anti-air it as soon as he jumps
-as soon as he does the kick,
-Headbutt is plus
-the wheel-kick is an overhead and goes deceptively far, it's -11-12 oB but the range can make it pretty difficult to punish
-porkchops the third one is mad -17 oB even at range, and also has big recovery so be sure to get a punish
