PC 5LP > 2MK > 236MK/623HP/(236KK, 4HK > 623HP)

Punish Counter allows 2LP/5LP to link into the 8-frame startup 2MK. This is most useful as a punish vs moves that leave the opponent at or slightly farther than close-range at variable frame disadvantage, making heavier punishes unreliable. Two examples of this are Juri's divekick special Shiku-Sen and Blanka's non-OD Aerial Rolling Attack: both of these can be spaced to be safe, but are at most spacings -4 or worse on block, making a punish from 5LP (which has greater range than 2LP) very practical. Position: Anywhere/Midscreen Punish Counter Drive: 2 bars Damage in source: 1600/1740/2170
