Heat Wall Oki
This wall combo sets up a guaranteed H.IAI.d+2 situation
W! (HB!) 1 f+4,2~D (or 3+4) H.IAI.d+2
The combo leaves the opponent FDFA, which means they must tech or they will get hit by H.IAI.d+2 since it hits grounded. If they do tech, then they block H.IAI.d+2 and are put in very disadvantageous situation.
Victor's Heat powers up IAI.d+2. This increases its the chip damage from 6 to 10, and increases the frame advantage from +4 to +8. This setup deals comparable damage to Victor's other wall combos, but if you do not have have Heat available then it might not be worth going for.
Counterplay?
Every character can back tech and use Heat Burst or a Powercrush to absorb the H.IAI.d+2 and hit Victor, but it's not a very good option since the H.IAI.d+2 will deal a ton of damage to you before you hit him back. Also, Victor's new IAI.df+1 is fast enough here to catch you before armor state begins, and he could always do a low from IAI like IAI.4,2 or IAI.d+1+2 instead.
Some characters with specific counterplay:
- Yoshimitsu can Flash or Spin to beat H.IAI.d+2 after teching the knockdown
- Raven can parry with b+1+3 (or b+2+4) and punish
- Clive can parry and counter with b+3
