A friend and I were discussing about how a raw death penalty hits you even if you are blocking. After some testing he actually found out that Death Penalty crosses up midscreen. So here’s the video I made explaining what happens when you throw out a raw death penalty.

Thanks for posting, unthanks for revealing our cheap secrets.
IIRC Alukard did this on stream over the weekend. Attempted to catch a flight mode Mags with Death Penalty, Mags XFC’ed the flight, and still go crossed up. I love the new tracking on this move. 
Yeah the tracking is actually awesome. Even though our cheap secrets are revealed, its still hard to block on reaction 
The new Death Penalty rocks!
This was actually part of my secret tech that I didn’t want out, but at least it’s not too bad. It only crosses up if they aren’t all the way on one side of the screen.
Example: The area between the left side of the screen and the middle
E = Enemy
m = middle
S = Skrull
< > = Corners
<__E__m____S>
Since the enemy isn’t at the corner yet, Skrull will automatically jump to the corner, but still able to cross up.
----v------------- ^
----v -------------^
----v------------- ^
<__E__m____S>
But since it can’t cross up at the corner like a normal meteor smash, this won’t work unless the enemy is near corner or midscreen.
Thanks for the tip. Now take the video down and delete this thread.
i used this two times at apex … once on stream vs rayray when i preemptively did it because i knew he was going to activate fly
