Fucking Mileena with a 6 ft pole

Okay, where are the holes in Mileena's game? I understand that I gotta AA combo her each time I block a roll or dive kick, working on that in the lab. But where else? What is her weakness?

she can't do damage without risking a punish.

Don't rely on zoning her out; IAS and telekick will make you pay for it. Most Mileena players rely heavily on D4 and most players in general block low, so hit her with the pole overhead; it has a decent rage. Keep your distance; she will either zone or go for a telekick. Even with delayed telekick sais, you can still catch her with the up pole thingie. U4 is relatively pokeable and most Mils will use it as a combo starter. Learn to fuzzy block, the bitch can combo off of anything. She's most comfortable at a distance, half screen to 3/4 screen, where she can safely sai you or punish you. Mil is a tough MU for a lot of characters; you have to make good reads and punish her mistakes.

U4 pokeable? Don't think so. She goes over pokes and hits the opp with the u4.
On block it's + 9 or something, so they have to respect your follow up.

Jaded, learn to punish her tele kicks, crouch second hit of the ex tele kick.

I uppercut that but it's meh.

does Jade get any follow up off of a d1 when opp in air? maybe you can do a d1 dash 2,4 into pole grab?

there must be a setup after pole grab, so maybe its best to link in a pole grab after d1. just do d1 f2 negative edge will handle it for you, no need to input df2 just do a f2 after d1.

when you uppercut, you send them away and you dont really want to send Mileena far from you... i dont know, i never fought this MU but i am guessing that you would want to fight Mileena within jump distance.

She can be poked as shes coming down.

Out of blOck...?

I kind of stepped up my mileena matchup a bit.
Right, Wolfy? :D
