String handling

d1,2: SSL
d2,2: Jails, so you can always i11 ws punish.
b4 strings: Guess (lol). No practical fuzzies or steps (You can step b4,4 both ways, but why would you).
ws1,1 / ws1,2: 8f fuzzy, high first. ws1,2 can SSL if not fuzzy ducking ws1,1
3,2: You can OS this with a dickjab if they're excessively fishing.
4,3_2: You can SSL the arrow, but the 3 will hit you. Blocking the arrow crouching slightly reduces pushback, so I would always duck
and look for a long range block punisher from crouch if he does the 2. At range the arrow is easily steppable, easiest SSL.
