Video/Tutorial - Mileena An Issue Regarding Mileena's D+1

Mileena's D+1 range isn't that great obviously, nor is it her best poke, but when certain characters Stand block, her D+1 completly whiffs, no matter how close you walk up and d+1. In the corner, it is completely inconsistent, and sometimes hits, but anywhere outside of the corner, it will whiff 100%. Just wanted to bring attention to you all when facing certain characters in which her D+1 is affected. D3 is obviously the better poke.

Not saying it is a bug or glitch, this seems to be (maybe??) the block animation (in which the way opponent stands, usually the ones leaning back). and is probably due to her bad reach as well. In the following matchups, you definitely want to stay away from D+1. D3 is the better poke for mileena anyway. Just some food for thought.

Characters that will evade Mileena's D1 during Stand block.
Takeda
Sub-Zero
Reptile
Kung Jin
Johnny Cage (Inconsistent midscreen)
Ermac
Kotal Kahn
Raiden
Quan Chi

I did have a good quality video showcasing this, but it doesn't seem to want to upload. I uploaded a video through my phone for the sake of showing it, so excuse the horrible quality.

Lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol lol



Just use d3 and stop crying.
Nobody is crying Mike. I feel it's important to share what I find with the community.

As I said before, not sure it's a glitch, but to have a poke just whiff like that is pretty crazy.

I catch myself d1ing just based on instinct, and then it just whiffs and I get punished for it. I'll take the -4 over the recovery frames.

Did this get stealth-fixed in the most recent patch? On PC so I still don't have the telekick patch yet :'(
