how to to beat aggressive poking?

[DonVISIONe]

like title says how do u guys manage against aggressive poking like with 2 - 4 jabs and then lows or CH baits?

some chars like kazumi gives me rly headaches with the poking. i just cant get out of the jab spamming and just when i think ill manage i get a counterhit ....

[HAWNEYMAN]

KBD and crouch jab

If they're jab spamming then don't just throw out some 13 frame launcher or whatever, try to KBD or sidestep and get a whiff punish.

[DonVISIONe]

kbd = koren backdash or something? if yes im not rly great at backdashing ._.

guess i need to learn it then

[xunlaiAgent]

Armor moves, evasive moves and hopkick are all options. Who do you play?

[DonVISIONe]

dragunov, hwoarang, paul and asuka but if i get jab spammed i struggle with every char i play.

[xunlaiAgent]

With asuka use her parry or maybe evasive move like b3.

Blocked jabs normally give +1 frame advantage on block. It allows for another jab from the opponent that is uniterruptable. If you see this as a trend of 2 or more (common), use spacing, stepping or moves in your character's movelist to high crush or armor them. It also becomes pretty obvious once you play a certain opponent a few rounds if they will modify their tactics. There are multiple ways out of jab spam. Also, sometimes a good "Hard Read" of just anticipating and ducking is all you need to lauch and scare them out of it.
If they don't respect your moves, make them.

If you struggle with KBD then you can learn the Aris way of doing it, reverse wavedash.

b, qcb, b, qcb, b, qcb

qcb is basically rolling from down to back.

Sidestep, learn the character pokes who you're having trouble with, armor moves, hopkick, evasive moves, KBD, crouch punch, and most importantly patience. I had trouble with a hwo player and I learned moves that he had trouble with and abused it.

qcb is basically rolling from down to back.

And then you can't play characters with backsway. Important to note that.

If you're hit, then don't move.
If you guarded, then you can do something.
First, guard once and then do backdash+sidestep moving.
jab can be easily evaded by backdash and sidesteps.
SSR+3RP may be a good solution for jabs. SSL+3LP also.
(3RP(uppercut moves) means numpad3+RightPunch. LP for LeftPunch-LeftBodyblow)

and if you can, don't do something when your opponent do poking.
guard or do backdash-guard. Punish when you guarded some big moves.

and try using moves that don't use lever. It's way faster and can retaliate good-moving guys.
ex) Lee's LK(3). it can cover even Xiao's 2AP(Down+AllPunch) and SSL, that Lee's so~~ weak against.

KBD lol if it means KoreanBackDash and if you're having trouble using it,
try this - 244 244 244 (its lever direction with numpad)
not 442 442. it's 244 244. pack 244 and do it fast.

It's Tekken notation in my country. And I've referred yours too. If you don't want this then just pass by.
