Block, then cancel
F is block. Q while ragdolled is the evasive. Most of Shinji's base kit does not break block. Lightning Flash does. Jun's Glimpse of Power does, and the ranged Fang Dance does. Martial Legend's Tiger Palm does. If you do not know the move, hold block and spend evasive only when the move is already a block bypass or a grab.
A true combo, in the community definition, cannot be left without evasive. A regular combo can be left with ragdoll cancel. Save Q for the true one. Cancelling the first hit of a regular string often puts you in the follow-up.
Documented anti-team behavior
| Character | What the tool does | When it helps |
|---|---|---|
| Jun | A clone attacks one of the teamers. Glimpse of Power into Virgule Cascade gives long invulnerability, a little healing, and 30 percent AoE. | Best documented 1v2 kit. Aim the variant at someone who already used ragdoll cancel. |
| Shinji | Almost every base move can hit more than one person. The anti-team note describes it as a way to break out and then chase with Flashstep Fury, Body Flicker, or Nunchuck Flurry. | You are already in a group and need a move that does not pick only one target. |
| Martial Legend | The anti-team effect is an area hit. | Worse in a dedicated 1v2. Use Panther Combo or Dragon Rush to take a protected turn, then look for a 1v1. |
| Virus Overlord | Laser Rush, Searing Shot, and the poison projectile can touch people who are not your primary target. A finished anti-team rule is not written down. | Use the radius and the poison. Do not assume a clone. |
Habits that stop a 1v2 from ending immediately
- Block the first M1 string. Teamers often overlap strings, and a block catches both if neither is using a bypass.
- Evasive sideways, not straight back into the second player.
- Spend the multi-hit move on the person who has already cancelled, so the second player cannot freely M1 your recovery.
- Do not awaken in the middle of both of them unless the ultimate itself has a storm or a clone. Dragon's Fury has a wind hit. No More Games brings the clone. Warrior's Grief has a close lightning wave, then you are a single target again.
- Kills still pay Gold if you win the exchange. You do not need to chase a third party off the map.
Public servers allow informal teams. There is no separate mode switch that turns the anti-team clone on. It is part of the character.
