I play Faust, but I was also wondering what are the best ways to beat his door? For normal door, I can think of:
1. Jumping forward and FD blocking. This seems to work against everything without having to guess (FD part only seems necessary for from above). But then there doesn't seem like there's enough time to punish , except for from above.
2. Guessing. You have enough time to punish, but if you guess wrong then you're screwed. It doesn't seem like door is something you can always just react to either. Maybe I just need to improve my reaction times, but I see pro players get hit with normal door too (although usually when there's threat of yrc).
3. Blitz shield. This seems like the best option. Easy to time and you get to punish. But you need meter. I think this is definitely good for putting an end to overuse of the door.
4. If you're also using Faust, you can do your own door right after they do theirs. Seems like a good option, but you need to be quick enough.
When door yrc comes into play though, I'm a little lost as to what options are viable. Or if I just need to make a good guess. Or if I need to use the slowdown of the yrc to react.
Any thoughts on this door stuff? Thanks!
