General Strategies

Round Start Options

Although Devil Jin Boasts one of the most well rounded movesets in the game, one of his few weaknesses is that he lacks a traditional magic four, and, thus his fastest Counter-Hit launcher has a relatively slow start up animation at 15 frames.

Although Devil Jin Boasts one of the most well rounded movesets in the game, one of his few weaknesses is that he lacks a traditional magic four, and, thus his fastest Counter-Hit launcher has a relatively slow start up animation at 15 frames. Because of this, he can have trouble outpoking characters with strong Counter-Hit game such as Steve or Lee at close range. With this in mind, it's usually best to be cautious during most exchanges, even when at a slight advantage when against such characters.


Malicious Mace (db+2)

db+2 is an excellent low to use at close range. Its crush property allows Devil Jin to slip under highs, thus allowing him to bypass jab pressure. On hit Devil Jin is left at an advantage of +3, which allows him to follow up with either an uninterruptable ws+4 or and in the occasion that you Counter-Hit the opponent, it leads to a knockdown state into a guaranteed follow up.
