Evaluation
Jamie's Standing Heavy Punch. The Drive Rush → HP sequence is a core pressure tool — at 5F startup with a strong hitbox, it's difficult to interrupt on reaction, so blocking is often the reliable answer.
How to Use
Notes on how Jamie uses Standing Heavy Punch — combo routes, pressure, pokes — to be added.
How to Counter
Drive Rush → HP is one of Jamie's strongest offensive actions. HP startup is 5F with a dominant hitbox, so mashing out is risky. If you're not watching for it, just block.
Recommended counters
After blocking Drive Rush → HP, remember: Jamie is at +1 outside throw range.
The main options Jamie has:
- 2MK → 236MP — beatable with small mash
- 2LP → (Drink Lv1+) LP → LK → MP → 236LP — beats small mash
- 2LP → 2MK → 236MP — beats mid mash after 2LP block
- 2LK → 2LP → 236LP — can be whiffed by walking back
- Forward walk → Throw — beatable with mid mash; back-stepping whiffs the throw
Simple answer: Understand that Jamie is +1 outside throw range, and avoid risky options like OD reversal or delayed throw-tech. Fastest mash or Perfect Parry are the lowest-risk responses.
Hard answer: If you're confident in fuzzy guard, walk back 6F then crouch-block to cover the low option.

Warning
If you keep getting thrown when attempting fuzzy guard, Jamie is walking in deeply. In that case, consider committing to a mid-strength button to beat the walk-in throw.
