did you get Kazuya off stage? Follow these steps!!! 1 shield the laser, its probably coming. 2 watch where they go and map out a path to exploit it, with a dair, or a gimping move. if they are far enough away, bait out edgegaurds, they might up b in panic, limiting their options more. 3 if they recover high, back up so they will land right in front of you. if they nair, hit them, if they emptyland, hit them. If they air dodge, try to hit them back off stage, if they end up above you, position yourself so they have to land next to you and can't just nair and get a free EWGF. If you're mario or squirtle, you could force kazuya to recover high with the spray moves, it should make him fly upwards involentarily, especially if he uses upb 4 If they recover low, wait for them to reach the ledge and do a safe 2 frame attempt. upb can hit you if you're just standing there tho. if they make it safely, your only hope now is to pray you ledgetrap correct cuz I can't help you ;-; just like be good or something don't get hit 5 Kazuya's jump looks identical to his upb, his jump lets him airdodge out of, but his upb doesn't. if you manage to get rid of his jump and his upb, then he can't airdodge out of upb garenteed. You can maybe use this when mapping out how to exploit the players recovery path. 6 side b is REALLY bad to use midair, iwth 68 frames of lag, so if they do it mindlessly, punish with a spaced move or a dair if your riskay Id like to clarify that I am not a professional by any means, but uhhh hopefully I gave you the smallest piece of matchup knowledge!
