JP Guide & Overview

Best range / preferred gameplan

Establish room for the ranged sequence you have practiced, and watch the opponent’s approach between inputs. When they move into midrange, switch attention to grounded checks such as crouching medium punch. Convert a close hit before deciding whether to create distance or set up Departure pressure.

Key tools to learn first

Beginner practice order

1. Notice the range transition

   Record an opponent moving forward between ranged threats. Pause the zoning sequence when they enter your grounded-check range.

2. Finish a close opening

   Practice a simple Stribog route from the combo page, including its spacing requirement, before adding a more elaborate juggle.

3. Build one portal sequence

   Recreate the listed corner setup after its required airborne finish. Test the delayed attack separately from the teleport option.

Common mistakes

• Continuing to input long-range threats after the opponent has already crossed into midrange.
• Copying a Departure follow-up without reproducing the knockdown that gives time to place it.

What to learn first

First stabilise crouching LP into standing LP and light Stribog, plus standing MK into medium Stribog. Add Drive Rush extensions afterwards.

Turn the route into a match decision

Study corner Stribog knockdowns separately from throw, strike, and teleport choices after a setup. Practise the next action after a normal ender before adding long SA2 routes.
