Shoulder ram's evading properties. Advance Akira players.

As we all know, shoulder ram can evade certain attacks even when Akira is at a disadvantage. I think Akira must be disadvantage or else he would be MC.

Vs Kage, close stance, shoulder ram evades kage's elbow.

Vs Shun, Open stance, evades Chowan.

Vs Akira, Forgot Stance, evades Yoho. Will check it out.

So its is usefull to watch your stance after SDE or DE and do shoulder ram accordingly.

Anymore?

 

In closed stance,
Shoulder ram goes through Sarah's elbow.

 

another move with evading properties which is unlike the shrm which i enjoying using is ++ move

 

Since all I knew for sure was that shrm doesn't beat Lau's elbow or hopknife in any damn stance after blocked (S)DE, I went ahead and monkey'd around in training mode. Using the guard & counter quick mid options of training mode...

Shrm beats Lei's in closed & Vane's in open.

Had some buddies been awake this morning I woulda probably been luckier...neither of these moves have that chowan/yoho/kage & sarah's elbow ring to them.

As an aside, last week Richard had Jeff & I Akira. He knocked me down, I techroll...I thought he was throwing, he thought I was kenkable...I go yoho, he goes kenka (stance was closed IIRC) & we whiff standing side by side! The stupidest stuff happens at my house.
