    I am so fucking frustrated with this game! How do you stop people who just constantly jump attack you and attack low? They are always on top of me and I can't get them off. I don't understand the wakeup game, and my wakeup attacks never seem to work. I have not been able to deal with this at all, and it feels like their attacks always get priority over mine. My inputs feel really delayed, and I know there is often lag online. I know I am terrible at this game, but shit these players don't even use combos. I am disabled and have to use a fightstick because I cannot do the precise inputs on the controller with my left hand. I know that has a lot to do with it, but I need some advice on how to handle this tactic. Anyone else feel this way? Thanks in advance for any comments!

    @l1ghtn1n: Thanks for the tips. It's just hard to know when I can let off block press a button, it's just seems my attacks are always getting beat. Just curious, what characters are you mainly using?

    @bmehlers: You kind of just have to play around with characters and figure out what are safe/unsafe strings for characters. There is a lot of stuff in this game that looks like you can punish after a string that you can't.

    As someone who's on the level of canceling normal combo strings to specials, figuring out block strings to every character seems crazy to me. But I guess that knowledge and muscle memory comes with experience.
