Piccalo and Adio - some sarah advice against jacky

What do you do against a jacky player that relies a LOT on jacky's auto jump back in his strings?

 

From having used both Jacky and Sarah, I feel that Sarah have more options with a little distance between the fighters. When jacky jumps back, I either wait for him to come back at me with a or a +, and I get a counter hit with Sarah's ++. Or I try to pressure him with ++ or crouch dash into either elbow or throw. You can even try to go into Sarah's flamingo stance with + and sabaki jacky's counter attack, get in a couple of quick hits, and then hit for sarah's backflip and play the same game he does. Hope this helps /versus/images/icons/smile.gif

Duck and throw.

 

Well, It depends if they follow through from the <font color="red">Shuffle</font color> stance and the distance between you and a wall.

If they <font color="red">Shuffle</font color> back then follow them either with + or . Of course you'll have to measure the distance and guess if + will catch them. In closed spaces (say Wolf's stage with Jacky's back to the wall) I would rely on for it's speed and priority. Even + has worked before.

I usually dodge <font color="red">SS:</font color> then counter. Use + or / to deal with <font color="red">SS:</font color> and . I favour dodging and ducking though.

 

Cool, thanks for the advice.
