    Lei Fei: Mid -- not bad, and not counterable, but it pushes him so far away, he doesn't have many options either...

    Wait...is that a good thing or a bad thing?? /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

    Point taken about the BT stuff though...I guess it's a bit of a pointless issue. No matter how good or bad a character's BT game is, it's always better to be facing forward.

    To fight back turned is an attacker's choice, not the defender's (ex-moves like Jeffry's [6][4][P], Shun's [4][P], etc.) so how good a character's arsenal of BT moves are is of little impact to how effective the character can be on the whole.

    I'm not exactly surprised that no one mentioned Vanessa's BT game, but I think it does merit at least a comment or two. As demonstrated by Myke several weeks ago, [2][P] from DS sabaki's the chowan after Shun's [3][P]+[G] (a question about this...can Vane [2][P] the chowan on reaction, or must she just do it and hope Shun doesn't try & pull a fast one by mulekicking her or something?) which is pretty sweet. Her BT [P]+[K] is slow (what isn't from Vanessa?) but can ruin your day. She's got some kicks in there too that don't make me smile. I don't know...Will doesn't venture BT too much with Vane at the house but when he does he enjoys a modicum of success...she seems to have decent variety from BT in any case.

    She doesn't have a BT throw though. Having something decent on at least two hit levels PLUS a throw (who's this? Just Kage & Shun right?) distances these guys from the pack a little, IMO.

    She's got a relatively safe BT mid kick, but isn't worth writing home about. As for using the BT [2][P] - you can't do it off reaction. It's like a reversal in this case. Be careful though (this goes for trying to reverse Kage's [6][2][3][P]+[K] from behind) - if they come w/ a mid kick, it's a counter hit, and then you're still facing backwards at a disadvantage.

    As for wether Lei's BT kick pushing people back is a good thing or a bad thing is all personal taste. But, even if you hit, counter hit, or whatever - that's all you get, and that was the point I was trying to make.

    Heres an easier one if you dont mind wining by ring out
    [4][4][P]+[G] it works on most levels exept arena and sunken ruin stages you have to get close to the edge
