I want Kronika to step on my face
October 4th patch update: 123 string got a stealth buff, it has better cancel advantage on block now, and 123 EX Aura is +5 now instead of -5. Great buff. Also fixed F4 cancel number, and added F4 xx Regular Aura advantage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I used to think most Sub-zero's good strings canceled into EX Aura are neutral on block, but after thorough labbing I found it's not. The following is the frame data on block off his practical strings/normals canceled into EX Aura:
11: +8
12: +5
123: +5
F4: +19
B12: +3
B33: +5
F33: -6
D4: -4
24: -4
D3: -6
F4 xx Regular Aura: +3
Post October 4 patch: Since armor is now weaker, a sane opponent won't spend his meter armoring after your plus frames just to deal ~12% while taking ~5% himself. And you can cancel your blockstrings into ice burst, which is safe now with pushback. Should be a useful strategy.
Outside f4, nothing other than 11 xx EX Aura into standing 1 jails, but the + frames are enough for Unbreakable to use parry if you read their armor attempt. With EX Aura up, if you make the wrong read your punishment will be smaller. I hate playing Unbreakable like that, though.
P.S.: There has been a thread about this already, but almost all the data listed there is incorrect, and the guy who made it is banned or something so that thread will never get updated.
