PSA: You can close distance very quickly by cancelling your step-in into a forward punch.
I see a lot of people acting like you can just backpedal away and never have to engage in order to farm counters, but you can cover a LOT of distance in the same time as a power jab with Fdash>Fjab/etc at virtually no stamina cost.
If you can't stay connected with someone you're beating in the pocket, you can get so many disgusting KOs if you do this to stay connected and lead it into a 3-piece.
This game plays more realistically the more you play it like a fighting game. It's weird, I know.
