This is a compilation of important necro information, if you plan on playing low tier you need to be aware of and utilize every single bit of information. Fuck school, study this ;p
What NECRO can punish !
Now these are listed with stun as priority, sometimes you won’t be going for stun so change punish. (such as instead of ‘Fierce Hook, back forward, SA3’ (50 damage on ryu), go ‘fierce hook back forward EX hook’ (53 damage on ryu and less meter wasted)). Also I’m sure there can be improvements etc so let me know if I messed up/missed anything. Also some of the descriptions are vague, as far as range, I tell you whats possible, you take it to training to learn it and find out what I mean by ‘close range’. Yes I ignored Sean and SA’s people don’t use.

Characters that can duck standing strong !
This is one of necro’s best tools, but it will also get you killed if not used right, whiffing it over people’s heads is easily punished by good players.
Miss everytime - Yun, Yang, Oro, Ibuki, Chun li, Elena, Twelve
Random chance from breathing Ryu, Remy, Sean, Ken
Always hits Akuma, Urien, Q, Dudley, Hugo, Alex
How OTHER characters punish Necro !
Some of these are useless, at least in my opinion, such as punishing Jab electricity with Makoto’s strong hayate - it requires reversal timing, you can’t drum it, and it’s an easy 70%+ stun punish if messed up, but I tell you all thats possible. Also, though strong hook IS punishable, it looks the exact same as jab hook, so be careful and make sure you know its a strong hook before you try to punish them.
