Who in 3rd strike has the easiest and lag-friendliest punishes?
If you call it 'lag' and not 'recovery' I'm going to DP your teeth out.
As an aside, you're approaching the game in fundamentally flawed way that a lot of newer players do. Don't approach the game understanding "okay, these are my safest things, these are what I'll always use, this is what I will always do at this range"-- stop. You're going to seriously limit your ability approaching the game on frame data alone. To punish buttons in Street Fighter (or anything in general), you need to
push buttons, which in itself presents a risk. Lights, heavies, they all carry them. Yeah, you can try to punish things with a jab, but, will you? Do you have the range? Does it have the effect you want? Will a jab that only puts 60 stun on the opponent discourage them like that stand fierce that drops 200 on them? Don't think of your punishes as needing to be as safe as possible. When standing in very specific spaces on the screen relative to your opponent, you can seriously scare them into not pressing their favorite buttons.
Watch this. Yes, in its entirety. This is your homework. I'm serous, watch this. This will give you an
infinitely higher understanding than the frame data or local champ's explanation
ever could. I'm not joking. You will be a million-drillion miles ahead of where you were after watching and applying this lesson.
Watch it
all, but what I was referring to specifically is at 12:20. Again, you'll need this
all to make sense of it.
