I played this the other day. Axl's blue unblockable thing being fullscreen now is really really bad. It's not a real projectile, so missiles don't eat it. Which means you can basically never do missile spam in this matchup.

you wouldn't really be able to anyway since 5P hits her out of her missile animation, lol. Pretty much the only way to get a missile out is with FRC.

Holy fuck this match-up is bad. It's not because his pokes hit Justice out of missile start-up. It's because even once she DOES spend the meter FRC missile, Axl can just use 2P/5P to counter it. Both of them extend his hitbox which will explode the missile early, BUT then his hitbox immediately shrinks so he only gets hit once. Which means he doesn't get knocked down and immediately recovers. Getting in on Axl is actually impossible.

Plus Justice's having good air tools is completely pointless, since jumping is like, pretty bad against Axl in general, but easily far worse for someone with little air mobility. I swear this is like 7.5 Axl
