    Maybe Creed can pile all these Shun posts into a central
    post thread.

    In VF, blind-fighting is one of those skills that seperates good
    from great players, apparently. Some characters are better at it
    than others, because there's guessing games for the opp. Unless
    you know what you're doing, I wouldn't try back-turn stuff with
    Shun too much. I don't know what's best, but Shun certainly doesn't
    have any FAST punches from back-turn. He has a pretty cool K but
    it's too slow and you can't wait that long to suck somebody in...will
    catch an inexperienced guy or the CPU. I don't know about humans,
    don't get to play them much. Best IMO when back showing to press forward
    direction and send Shun rolling to face opp. again.

    Drunken stance is not used much by Shun players (from what i can tell from the forums and from vids). The only useful moves from Drunken Stance are [P] to turn the opponent around or maybe [K] as it seems to have a good frame advantage and you may be able to get 2 or 3 before your opponent catches on. The range for every move in Drunken Stance is very short so it's not very useful. I have seen a new move in Evo though which i think is from DS which is a sort of foward roll to lying down position with a double kick to then legs which trips the opponent over. It doesn't do much damage but every time I've seen it used it has worked. Guess we'll have to wait for that one though /versus/images/icons/smirk.gif.

    Oh and it's been said before but search the site for your info and anything that you can't find and need to ask for please put in one big post.

    Wait for Evo -- you've got the same high/low & throw that you've got in Ver C, plus a much stronger mid attack when turned around.
