*Note that the video will output in 4K60fps when fully processed. I don't produce videos in 360p any more haha

0:00 Introduction
0:36 Introduction to Jacky's Gameplay
2:40 Some BnB's

*Additional Notes
- Jacky is a Mid Heavyweight
- Yes, 7K was not mentioned in this video (use it to abare the hell out of your opponent Rip-Style ;-)! )
- 7K & 9K are your go-to low crushes (moves that beat out lows)
- 44K sets up your back-turned stance and side-turns the opponent, frame trap them with BT5K. If BT5K connects, Side Shuffle~P is guaranteed along with a 6K and everything there after
- Use your neutral P+G throw then jump over your opponent to cross them up
- Jacky's only mid-hitting full-circular tracking move is 46K+G (it's unsafe when blocked)
- Try to avoid mixing it up in close range with Jacky too much
- You can use the Slide Shuffle stance during neutral footsies (cancel out with SS~33 if not using an attack option)
- Jacky's low kicks (like 6PP2K) are generally unsafe if blocked
- The combos are performed on a Lightweight character so you'll need to remove a move or alter the combos a bit for heavier weights
