Paul strategy

Poke Theory

• Close in on opponents by utilizing Paul's crouch dash, and the extension. Good pokes off of the deep dive extension are DPD.4 and DPD.2,1 (or DPD.2,3)

• Very easy to condition opponents to have to jab-check your pressure to create a gap. Read this timing and counter with df+1 to crush high and launch the opponent for big damage.
