I need to know all the options I can do to stop it. And if you have to predict it to stop it .
Uppercut is universal, as is D1 into combo. Keep in mind however, that tele 2 (overhead) will beat all D1's.
With Kabal, you have many options aside from the above (if you do d1, follow it with F4 into dash). You can do Ex dash, or dash back and punish the whiff with standing 4 into dash (watch REO vs. PL from EVO 2013 and you'll see REO do it a lot).
With Shang, it's either D1 or, with better timing, standing 1 after the tele 3 whiffs.
With Smoke, it's either D1 into d1~Smoke Bomb or Standing 2 into his traditional anti air combo.
