Archetype

Lee is a counter hit and neutral monster who strikes fear into anyone who dares press even a single button. He's notoriously evasive with both f,F+4 and d+3 able to avoid some mids, and wr3,4 often going under jabs. Many of his HMS transitions recover deceptively far away, creating whiffs from seemingly nowhere.

His pressure is somewhat loose, with many punishers and key mixups leaving him without much frame advantage or the space to use it. However, his df+1 is still a force to be reckoned as it's backed up with a full suite of dangerous threats to retaliation.

Strengths

• Ultra fast counter hit tools that are hard to punish (2,2,3 and 4 series)
• Obnoxious keepout tools (b+4~HMS, Magic 4 series, df+2, f,f+3, f,f+4)
• He has a slide (FC df,d,df+3)
• Solid tracking options
• Mental damage from infinite kicks and Mist Trap
• Baby mode whiff punishment with f+3,3,3,3,3,4
• Good combo damage and pretty flexible wall carry options
• XLNT

Weaknesses

• Struggles against tight defense
• Optimal standing punishment requires execution (4,4 D+3 D+2 Acid Rain)
• Lacks a good throw game
• Has to staple a lot things that have no easy alternatives
• Needs to go into crouch for his big mixup
