DO NOT use her ws+3_4. It will whiff – even if your opponent stays neutral without hitting D. Even a u/f+4 is risky. u/f+3_u+3 should be useful here, but it is too slow. I don’t know about d+2 – I can never remember to try this in this situation.
Instead, use one of her longer-ranged low mids, such as f+4_u/f+3+4_d+3+4, and remember that d+3,4 is NCc.
How are you guys dealing with Paul’s Deathfist? I find that on block f+1+2 is not consistent. It whiffs at near max to max range. uf+3+4 is a bit better, but it still whiff from time to time. f+4,3 works at all ranges but does low damage by comparison and is only +1 on hit. I’m open to suggestions though I’m leaning towards using uf+3+4 and living with it.
My Josie experience is limited atm but I’d say the most consistent DF punish would be f+4,3. It’s usually a toss-up between u/f+3+4 and f+4,3 but if you’re good at judging the range I’m sure you can use f+1+2 in there as well.
