Countering Rensen 8's frame advantage with throwing and FD [Check Description]
Axl's Rensen 8 followup will often leave him at least +4 when blocked and in range to enter an offense with his normals. Couldn't find one of the many better videos showcasing this, so you're stuck with my clumsy rambling I'm afraid.
Throw is 2 frame startup btw forgot to mention, that's what can give you a big enough gap to throw his 6 frame 5k at certain ranges, and very consitently against a c.S starter (8 frame startup)
Also I made fun of "just IB it bro" but hey the move is pretty slow so you could do it with some consistency!
Try going into training mode yourself to see what your character can do in this situation!
