I am bad at this matchup. Very, very bad. I assume others struggle with it because its tough for kang, but im hoping we can put our heads together and find answers.
The only tricks i have come up with that help are:
1) dont always dash in through the zoning. I like to hang out and try to bait shoulders so i can fireball from just outside shoulder range. Doesnt work for long, but it tends to get me one good fireball to the face. Once the overhead slashes come its time to vacate.
2) general strat for all characters. Jump a shoulder. Not grounbreaking i know.
3) bait ex shoulder. When you get to that sweet spot where you know you will clear RK, kenshis like to exshoulder you out. I try to jump at them, and fireball so the shoulder goes under me and they waste a bar.
Thats it. Thats all i can come up with to fight this dragon pants wearing Scumbag. I know its thin. Thats why i struggle so much. So...thoughts to help fix this matchup that feels easily like a 3-7 to me?
