D+vs2 and pp works as well. weird timing in the corner. vsk 2 is most consistent in the corner no timing requierd. for pp to connect consistently, press pp as soon as possible. for vsk 1 to connect, you want to delay pp a bit,but press before the opponent starts to fall. pp should be your goto in the corner |
