Lau's Ukemizeme Guide

    Here is explained what ukemizeme is.

    The only input the game considers valid during the first frames after Teching (In Place or Tech Rolling) is G. An attack placed during those frames is called Meaty, a true Meaty can only connect NH.
    If you press 8/2 trying to evade, you'll get hit (NH).
    if you abare or use sabakis that don't contain G input in them, you'll get hit (NH).

    So, after Teching you can only block (standing/crouching) and this gives the attacker the option to safely use a linear attack placed Meaty so that it can't be evaded/parried.
    This is commonly known but what isn't is THIS (the exploit of the exploit).
    Because G is the only recognized input it opens up to various Option Selects.
    Read G0d3l's detailed post about them HERE.

    Entonces, after reading G0d3L's post you'll know that a Mid Meaty doesn't 50/50 with a Guard Break. The only true 50/50 is between a Mid Meaty and Low Meaty.
    Unfortunately Lau doesn't have safe lows so, because of these OS the best option is either of 2P+K/3PP/4P+KP placed Meaty.
    You can do the math but the frame trap on block after those 3 options yields better risk/reward than Lau's alternative immediate mix-ups because the transition into Kokei those moves offer unlock a CH launcher that Lau doesn't have outside of that stance.

    Do we know why 9K+G works but 6K+G doesn't?

    I think 6K+G works but Jacky has a move with that input so will get 6K+G. If you want 6K you have to actually input 6K.

    Moves like Eileen's and OS Vanessa's 9K don't have a conflicting move with the 9K+G input, so can be input as 9K+G for the option select. At least that's what i'm getting from this. @-nero- can correct me.

    Haven't played Lau much as of late, but this is good stuff, thanks nero.

    Question, can't you just bait out the opponent's hold G or launch OS thing on wakeup by just not meatying and instead doing nothing?
