Shun and walls

    Hey guys! I'm having a bit of a trouble with my wall game with Shun. Or "trouble" is perhaps the wrong word, problem is I really don't have a wall game. Do you guys have any good tip when it comes to Shun and walls. Right now I mostly use mixups between 1KK -> wallslam, 3P and the wallthrow, but that doesn't get me very far. I also found out that 3P+K is pretty effective near walls, cause the charged version slams them back in the wall and leaves them open.

    I really could use some other tips though, and good wall combos. I know about 3PPK, but what is the best option <8 DP?

    So, let's spill some strats folks;). The Shun board is far too dead.

    from my limited knowledge: a good wall juggle either consists of one or two big hit(s) (ex: akira), or several quick hits (ex: pai). i'm not sure shun has either of those, but it has definately stirred my interest in trying out some things.

    /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif is a killer up against walls. At the right angle, you can get /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif (wall stagger) > /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif (wall splat) > /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif > /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif (bounce), and a light down attack if they don't techroll. It's a ton of damage.

    That should basically be your mix-up game at the wall: /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif and wall throw (+5dp and guaranteed heavy down attack), ESPECIALLY since you no longer have to be exactly 90 degrees to the wall when doing it (I have even gotten it to work on corners from time to time). And if they struggle out of your /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif up against a wall and start guarding, afraid of the next one, you've got your wall throw there too~

    Also, never forget Chowan (/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/d.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif). If you've got your opponent's back even moderately close to a wall (short walls too), eyeball it so you can get as many Chowans (and follow up /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gifs) as you can so that your opponent hits the wall at a high spot, and then /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif. if you hit them high enough, you'll even get a heavy down attack.

    I mentioned using /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/g.gif up against walls for wall combos and for short wall ring outs in another thread, but in my practice and my game sessions it has proved really unreliable. Although it's not entirely on topic, I'd say /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/g.gif's bounce properties are best used to catch people the try to do lots of jumping moves... and you want to make them look like an idiot, haha.

    wow, I guess when it comes to walls, /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif is the new /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif :p

    Gotta love Shun!!!
