King of Fighters XIII > Leona Heidern
Cr.D as an anti-air?
Inspectah Ed:
I was reading up on the match-up against K,and I saw that she can use her cr. ;d as an anti-air...I just wondering if it's only used against certain jump-in attacks?
Reiki.Kito:
You can use her sweep against moves that are fairly horizontal like Shen's j.CD or Iori's j.B. Moves like that have very little or no lower body hitbox so you can hit them on the way down with the sweep. Also, her body shrinks down when she does the sweep so she's less vulnerable to being hit.

Yup is very useful and tricky, try to punish jumping CDs. do NOT abuse it, use it as a shenanigan.
Shaman:
You can punish moves that cover the area around (above) the head of your crouching character, like Iori's j.D or takuma (early) j.CD or simply attacks used as air to air, used early in the jump by using attacks that lower your own hitbox, Leona goes very low with the d.D that's why you can do this.
Moves that aim very low like Kyo jd.C or Iori's j.C are usually moves that come very late in your opponent's jump so you have another option to anti air them. You have to guess (except your opponent does big forward jumps from super away but good players avoid this) if your opponent is gonna aim above you to prevent you from attacking or deep to combo, with the appropriate anti air

Thanks for the info guys,I'm most definitively gonna test it out in training mode against the whole cast ;)
