How to properly defend myself?

[✔️ Agent Hunk]

Legit question, what is the best way to properly defend myself on this game? (Rather than the super counter of course)
I mean, there is a secret technique that I don't know about or what? Every combo I try to pull up is either getting guarded or perception mid combo, either way, those are two things I can never do, if I get stuck on a combo, better I pull up a super counter or otherwise I'm getting 2 healths down (yeah, even if the attacker is infront of me)

If you are getting perceptioned its because you are either taking too long between hits or they had their block up and then switched over to perception once they realized you were sinking your teeth into their guard. Super counters are the only end all be all of defensives, and its the one thing you should always aim to perfect. Theres different defensives for different scenarios.. Too many to list and i am sure I still only have a half decent understanding anyway. Only way to learn is to play and try stuff out.

lol you just got to play the game honestly and practice.You have Guarding(Up, neutral, Down), Perception, Super Counter, Vanishing, Revenge Counter, Side Stepping, and Revenge Countering with Perception(Having at least 2 Skills Stocked Up) are all ways to defend yourself in the game. You can't be too predictable in the game or people are going to read your movement and game too easily. So i say the best way for you to get better is get in the practice mode and practice on the hardest diff and play online against better players to get better at the game.

I guess that can happen when I use a slower character, but when I also get attacked by slow attackers (Like Toppo or Broly) I can't never counter them
