[Thunder Dash]Feint

[Thunder Dash]Feint (also called "Thunder Cancel" or "San-kan") is one of C. Viper's most defining tools. By pressing K during any strength of Thunder Dash (214P), she cancels the special move's recovery and can immediately act again. This enables her to embed Seismic Hammer (623P) into virtually any normal, drastically expanding her pressure and mix-up potential.

• Seismic embed: 214P→K cancels into 623P (Seismic Hammer), creating a low attack after almost any blocked normal. The opponent must crouch-block in response.
• Strike/throw mix-up: After the feint cancel, C. Viper can throw instead of using Seismic Hammer, creating a 50/50 between low and throw.
• Drive Impact bait: Opponents who use Drive Impact to counter feint cancel strings will get counter-hit by C. Viper's own Drive Impact when she reads the attempt.
• HJC extension: Feint cancel into High Jump Cancel (HJC) unlocks advanced combo routes and aerial approaches that are otherwise impossible.
