If you’ve put some time into Street Fighter V, you’ve certainly seen your fair share of wakeup jabs; you may even use them yourself. And why not? Jabs are quick, low-commitment options that can convert into combos under the right circumstances, and they can also beat pressure following a knockdown if said pressure, again, is optimal.
Strong though they may be, these buttons are far from flawless. In his newest video, jmcrofts discusses how to use meaties to deal with opponents who have a little too much love for light attacks. Though the options directly offered in the video apply to Ryu, this technique is a universal one, so give your character’s buttons a try to see what works best for them.
