A.K.I.

- Her slow projectile is incredibly vulnerable to W.236KK. If you already have wind it's an easy punish. If not, it's possible to get a stock with Condor Wind during her startup and threaten to spire if she tries to follow it. Just be careful not to get baited with a neutral jump.
- Her only OD reversal is vulnerable to throws. It's possible to OS throw or command grab during a sequence of chained lights to throw her the moment any of them whiffs.
e.g. 6LK > 6842LP > 2LP > (2684 Release LP)- Each button press should be timed slightly before the previous move recovers. It isn't possible to cancel normal moves into a grab, so despite the 360 motion the inputs still come out as 2LP.
- If any of the light attacks whiff, the lack of hitstop means the next button press now occurs after recovery, triggering a command grab..
- A 360 motion stays buffered 20 frames, so the 3rd button press still registers a command grab input without performing an additional motion.
- The final command grab requires button release inputs to be enabled. Using a button press will chain into another whiff punishable 2LP on block or hit. A button release input prevents this.
- OD command grab can be used instead by tapping LP+MP instead of just LP.
- The result is that if A.K.I. uses OD Snake Step at any point during this sequence, she gets grabbed.
- Perfect meaty 5LP is safe against wakeup SA1 and SA3. It's worth learning setups for it (e.g. W.236MK, Dash Twice, 5LP).
Blanka

- 2MP > SA1 can be used to check Light Blanka Ball.
- Max range 2HP is safe against reversal OD Blanka Ball.
- Non-Windclad 236KK and SA2 both set up a safe jump against OD Blanka Ball.
- Condor Spire can be used to navigate over Blanka-chan.
Cammy

- Avoid using slow buttons too much. Especially 2HP. Cannon Strike whiff punishes them almost for free.
- 2HP does not work properly as an anti-air. Be ready to buffer Tomahawk Buster at all times.
- Long range Hooligan movement can be dealt with using Condor Spire.
Chun-Li

- 4HP can be used to check Chun-Li while she's walking behind a slow fireball.
- 3HP goes over Hazanshu into a Punish Counter combo.
- Max range 2HP is safe against reversal OD Tensho Kicks.
Dee Jay

- Avoid standing in the mid-range, as that makes it very difficult to interrupt Drive Rush.
- Aim to be either close enough to interrupt Drive Rush with light attacks, or far enough away to stuff the normal with 5MP/2MP/4HP.
- It's possible to react to Dee Jay's projectile with a neutral or backward jump that lands directly behind it. Landing close enough provides enough time to take a Windclad stock with 214LP before the next projectile can get there to interrupt it. Dee Jay can adapt by attempting to Drive Rush instead, but the long range makes it very interruptable with normals if you choose not to take Windclad, or by taking Windclad using 214MP/214HP and releasing it when he moves forward.
- Dee Jay's sway is dangerous to Lily's bigger buttons in neutral, especially 2HP, as the low option whiff punishes into a full combo. Try to maintain Windclad stocks to shut this down with Condor Spire.
- Blockstrings into Sway can be interrupted depending on the spacing and the available resources.
- SA1 beats any followup of regular or OD Sway, but will lose to no followup if spaced correctly.
- 360LP can interrupt followups after regular Sway, but gets punished with a full combo by delayed low or no followup.
- 623LP/623PP can interrupt any followup of regular Sway, potentially trading hits with the low, but will lose to no followup if spaced correctly.
- W.623LP/W.623PP extends this to work with OD Sway, as the faster startup allows it to trade with the low.
- W.236LK or W.236KK can be used to disrespect Sway, but will lose to the low followup if there is not enough of a gap to get airborne (e.g. after 5HP).
- 3HP can be used on reaction to regular Sway to hop over and punish the low followup (even if delayed), but it loses to other options. Does not work against 5HP > Sway > Low due to the gap being too small.
Dhalsim

- 5HP > DR can be used to whiff punish his normals from anywhere on the screen.
- It's almost impossible to shut down Dhalsim's slow fireballs without Windclad stocks. Take every opportunity to fill up early in the round even if it means taking some hits.
- Get used to reacting to crossup teleport with Tomahawk Buster shortcuts. e.g. If facing right and already holding Down-Left then you only need to input Down > Down-Left > Punch.
- Condor Spire goes over slide. It's a good idea to sometimes just throw it out whenever Dhalsim throws a high fireball.
- Stick to using crouching attacks for pressure to make his SA2 ineffective as a reversal. Meaty 3HP is NOT safe - it ducks under the initial hit but gets punished if Dhalsim holds the button.
- Reliable ways to punish SA2:
- Wait, PC 360HP/360PP/Throw
- Wait, PC 5HP, 360HP/360PP - More damage, but less drive damage.
- PC 2HP > SA1/SA2/SA3
- PC 2HP > 214PP > SA2
- Parry, PC 5LK > (Light Starter Combo) - Low damage, but builds drive gauge and erases the ball for better knockdown options.
- Wait, PC DI, Parry, 5HP/5MK > (Crumple Combo) - Only reliable if he releases the ball immediately. A delayed launch makes the timing stricter, and a full charge requires frame perfect timing.
E.Honda

- Anti-air Sumo Smash by holding down and mashing left/right, hitting Punch at the very last moment to Tomahawk Buster in the correct direction.
- Honda can try to bait Tomahawk Buster by doing Light Headbutt from full screen. Use SA1 instead and it will reach him no matter which version he does.
- After blocking Sumo Headbutt, use 5MP to stop him from pressing buttons afterwards, or 2LP after the Light version. Start introducing other options when they start blocking.
Guile

- Use 5MP and 4HP to poke his Sonic Boom startup.
- 4HP can also be used to disrespect Sonic Blade. Lily will get hit, but will still make contact with Guile standing behind it.
Jamie

- Trying to take Windclad stocks often gives Jamie a free drink in return, and vice-versa. It's somewhat worth letting him have one early on just to get that first Windclad stock, then maintain Condor Spire distance to stop him getting any more, replenishing the wind after each knockdown.
- Do not backroll after getting knocked down, especially after Freeflow Strikes or Drive Reversal. This keeps you in range to punish excessive drinking with 236KK or DR~5MK/2HP.
- After a command grab, generate Windclad stocks with 214MP instead of 214LP. This leaves Jamie close enough that W.236KK can interrupt any attempts to drink.
JP

- Drive Rush 5HK and 3HP slide more than other moves, and can sometimes be used to make a spike whiff behind you.
- 2HP shuts down JP trying to control space with neutral jump MP.
- Try to have Windclad stocks ready at all times to shut down Amnesia once you're on offense.
- If OD Amnesia is triggered by a Light attack, follow up with 5LK > W.236KK. This combos on hit, is safe on block, and completely dodges the first orb.
- Alternatively, attempt a regular throw and buffer SA2 to anti-air JP if he jumps out of it. This goes clean through both orbs.
Juri

- Aim to be either close enough to interrupt Drive Rush with light attacks, or far enough away to stuff the normal with 5MP/2MP/4HP.
- Any version of Condor Spire goes over Juri's projectiles.
- When Juri has 2 bars, it's good to have Windclad stocks ready to break her safe jump setups with W.623LP/623PP
Ken

- When expecting him to Drive Rush after a slow fireball, it's possible to slap the fireball with the tip of 2LP to take the hit early. This creates a bigger gap, making it much easier to interrupt the Drive Rush.
- It's possible to hard read his 2MK with Lily's 3HP for a Punish Counter combo.
Kimberly

- Learn the timings for safe meaty 5LP to shut down reversal SA1.
- 3HP over her slide for a Punish Counter combo.
Lily
Luke

- It's possible to hard read his 2MK with Lily's 3HP for a Punish Counter combo.
- Mash SA2 during his L~M~H string to interrupt any special followup. Note that the 3rd hit must be blocked standing to interrupt Light Sand Blast.
Manon

- 214MP/214HP/214PP can do some work in neutral as the release can catch Manon at the range where she wants to either do one of her forward moving specials or walk forwards a little bit more to get into range of her normals. Just be wary of jump-ins, and of Drive Impact until you have enough meter to cancel into SA.
- Perfect meaty 5LP is safe against wakeup SA1. It's worth learning setups for it (e.g. W.236MK, Dash Twice, 5LP).
- When Lily is burned out, Manon's 5MP loop can be interrupted by using W.623LP to trade for a knockdown. This is the only real way out without meter, as 5LK trades badly - it does push Manon away she stays in range to just do it again with the option of Drive Rushing back in.
Marisa

- 5HP and 4HP can be used to whiff punish any of her big buttons into a combo.
- W.j.PPP is good at interrupting Marisa's big buttons from a neutral jump, and since it hits twice it will also break armored moves.
Rashid

- W.236KK shuts down a lot of Rashid's gimmicks. Try to have Windclad stocks ready at all times.
- Especially try to be Windclad when Rashid has 2 bars. W.236KK ruins SA2 tornado setups.
- Depending on the range, Rashid's SA2 can be directly punished using:
- W.236KK - Long distance. At the tip of its range it will trade unless canceled into SA2.
- DR~SA3 - Round start distance.
- 214PP - Round start distance. Trades somewhat favorably.
- 5MP / W.SA2 / SA3 - Footsie range.
- At close range, 2HP or any other move faster than 11 frames.
Ryu

- It's possible to hard read his 2MK with Lily's 3HP for a Punish Counter combo.
- Max range 2HP is partially-safe against reversal OD Shoryuken. The second hit whiffs, allowing it to be punished with a combo.
Zangief

- Abuse him with long ranged normals. 5MP keeps him at bay, while 2HP shuts down attempts to counter with armor.
- Fill up on Windclad stocks at the first opportunity. Zangief's reversals are the worst in the game which makes him particularly vulnerable to Wind Spire shenanigans.
- It's fairly safe to do a meaty jump-in after 623LP or 236MK/236HK. The attack hits too low for Lariat/SA1/SA2 to work as an anti-air, and too high for SA3 to punish the landing.
- Never get backthrown when his back is to the corner. Try to meaty from outside his throw range to make it harder to sideswap if he gets a perfect parry.
