Hey guys,
For starters, the thread that all of this is being put into is here.
I realized that there are some characters' moves that are just better to spotdodge or roll past for the most part, while others are dealt with better just by shielding, and there are also some that should just be flat out avoided. I'm looking for arguments on what is better to shield, what is better to dodge, and what you should just not be in the way of.
I know that it depends on the situation and I know everyone has a general mix of punishment by shielding and dodging, but there are characters who lean one way and characters who lean another way. I really want to see some good posts on the best defensive way to deal with other characters so I can try to put together a list using your quotes, any information that I research myself, and other sources of knowledge that are provided. It can be on a character in general or specific moves.
I should also consider doing something like air vs. air and dodging them or just attacking them anyway, but for now, I just want to know about shielding vs. dodging. Besides, it varies far more by who you're using and who your opponent is, while what I'm looking for is a lot more universal.
So... just pick any move you want to talk about and ask a question or give advice.
EDIT: ALSO... just to clarify, by "dodge" I mean something that involves invincibility frames for the most part or rolling. By "avoid", I mean just moving your character away from said attack.
