ya big jerk/malarkey central

I mentioned in the description box of one of my latest vids • IRS Aegis that Ken might be able to red parry and Shippu thru Akuma fb, sa1 chip kill, but it doesn't look like it here - depends on how meaty sa1 is done in order to parry, Shippu thru AFAIK. So, once again, if Akuma times and spaces this chip kill well, Ken's only real options are:
1. full tech (which should include making a read while parrying)
2. red parry last hit (provided you have enough life)
3. partial block/(red)parry
• ya big jerk #2 - meaty...
• ya big jerk: a series ...
• buncha malarkey
• bunch more malarkey
• Ken matchups: Akuma/Gouki
• Let's Fight Like Gentl...

I wonder how wide the "good" meaty window is if shippus startup is like 2 frames, and idk how many frames red parry saves you on the worst possible fireball timing

[@Scuddi]

i assume it has to do with the speed and size of the hitboxes of sa1. like it can't clear through ken fully before his hurtbox is active again. like you say, it seems to depend on how meaty it is which would change how deep the sa1 is on wakeup.

Would EX shoryu into Jinrai have worked? Looks like it'd got enough invuln according to ESN.

Good idea! EX SRK can hit once and trade, but I couldn't cancel into sa3
