Sean's Options and Okizeme

Sean's okizeme is in the middle of  the spectrum of the other 3 shotos. Like Akuma and Ryu, he has a use-able Kara Throw that has a good amount of range to it along with their Shoto Knee (Cl.HK) and like Ken, he has Cl.MP that can lead into many options dependent on the situation. His 3 main close normals (MP/HP/HK) are great for meaties due to the amount of advantage they can achieve and how many hit frames they have (5). Unlike the other Shotos, his Taunt can also be a great tool when it comes to Oki in hard knockdowns due to having to worry about what he could do after throwing it.

SA3 is his strongest super when it comes to wake-up games. SA1 can also be quite strong in this regard as well. Since his "Close Range" is longer/wider than the other shotos, he can stand at max Cl. HK distance (where reversals are more likely to whiff) and go for either:

• High Parry only normal (Confirm or Reset)
• Low Parry only normals (Confirm (may have to step forward) or Knockdown)
• Kara-Throw (After stepping forward)

The only downsides to this is to truly be effective, he can only do this while he has super stocked.

Sean does have a DP (even though it isn't very good at all) that can give him KND's consistently and also he has Towards + HK which resets upon hitting. 

He doesn't have a fast overhead (which means you can usually get away with down backing on wake-up) but he does have a decent Kara UOH that can confirm super. His wake-up pressure mostly revolves around him using raw/Kara throws and then baiting you into teching and confirming into super from it.

Wake-up options:

• Invincible DP - EX Dragon Smash has 8 frames of invincibility that can beat or trade with meaties; Can lose to throw or meaty low when if timed properly (from a distance) and be punished quite handily so be aware.
• Throw Invulnerable Attack - Normals or specials that start up in 6 frames or less gain throw invulnerability on wake-up. The moves that start up in less than 6 frames are: All light attacks, All medium punches, Cl.HP/HK, Zenten, and LP Dragon Smash. Rolling Sabat (F + HK) is airborne on the 6th which also inherits the throw invulnerability following the same principle.
• Guard/Parry Jump - Press down-back (or forward) then jump on wake-up. Blocks meaties (though not multi-hits very well) and gets you out of the corner granted they don't punish the part of the jump where you cant parry.
• Guard/Parry Roll - Same as above but instead of jumping, input the motion for Zenten. It deals with multi-hit attacks well since your already crouch blocking. Works vs. command grab characters well since Zenten's whole animation is shorter than jumping which gives you more time to punish command grabs that usually recover too fast for a significant punish (like karakusa).
