Extra Notes
-Tatsu will whiff on crouching characters. cr.HP, st.HP & the first hit of tatsu up close will force stand.
-Tatsu keeps the opponent standing, making it ideal for tag cancel combos.
-f.MK moves forward a good distance. Useful for closing space.
-Ending combos with SRK will usually do more damage, while tatsu will push them further to the corner.
-f.HK feint is special cancellable.
