I play Zaheer and I'm getting stomped exclusively by zukos, the guy is a monster. His hitboxes are absurd so I can't get close enough even with my jC, he's faster than me, he has both a low and a Jb that hits both sides of you with range so I can't get behind him, practically any hit at range can be turned into a full combo that gets me into the corner across the screen, his fireballs punish me in neutral and destroy my assists, his divekicks get behind my head or come at unpredictable times/ranges, and then after a super long combo I either can't flow out or if I can I immediately get stuck in another combo. And I never know which side he's going to end up on after a combo so I can't even block. It seems like I can't find a spot in his string to flow or counter out of either. I practically never win against Zuko and I can counter everyone else, what am I missing?!
