Iai stance is a cornerstone of Victor strategy, giving him access to powerful lows, a mid string with feints, and a powerful pressure extender capable of dishing out big chip damage (d2). End your wallcombos in this stance (using f4,2 etc) for inescapeable pressure.
In general:
-Iai 1xx is the main frametrap option (its steppability varies)
-Iai d1+2 is the fully tracking option (a launch punishable low)
Post WR2 (blocked):

-Iai 2 & lows track to both sides (can be interrupted)

-Iai 2 & d1+2 tracks to both sides
-Iai 4 is prone to whiff / can be stepped & backdashed
