• Close/Far Standing Jab:

Damage	?
Stun	?~?
Stun Timer	?
Chain Cancel	Yes
Special Cancel	Yes
Frame Advantage	?
Frame Count		?	?	?

Useful to cancel into super / rushes. Also good to stop some stuff (Honda's headbutts for example).

• Crouching Jab:

Damage	?
Stun	?~?

Chain Cancel	Yes
Special Cancel	Yes
Frame Advantage	?
Frame Count		?	?	?

It's very fast and has the repeating property (something low short doesn't), but it has a different hit box. I really dont use low short much, only low jab for cheating and combos.

• Close Standing Strong:

Second best anti-air move. Has more range than cr.HP.

• Crouching Strong:

Damage	?
Stun	?~?
Stun Timer	?
Chain Cancel	No
Special Cancel	Yes

This is his best ground attack, despite not hitting low. The entire arm is safe and cannot be hit, but can hit the enemy (it's a completely red hitbox, no blue). Can cancel into rushes and link into Super.

Great poke to use at max range. It _CAN'T_ hit the following opponents when they're crouching: Ryu, Blanka, Guile, Ken, Chun Li, Cammy and Dictator.

Catches some moves that go under Crouching Strong (like Vega's slide). Links into cr.Strong and the Super. Your move of choice to tick / combo in throw mixups. Quick recovery and great for hitting limbs in footsies (like Guile's d. Forward).

Best horizontal range out of his ducking moves and knocks down. Useful for footsies when a crouching Forward won't reach. Long recovery so be careful.
