Hanagasumi

The Hanagasumi is Ibuki's V-Reversal in Street Fighter V.

Description
Executed by pressing forward and all three punches after blocking an attack, Ibuki performs a hand sign before disappearing behind a cloud of smoke. Moments later, a log appears from another cloud of smoke right in front of her opponent. Her opponent is knocked backwards to the ground as she reappears in front of them.

Tactics
Like most V-Reversals, the purpose is to stop opponent's pressure or to get out of tough situations. This move is a solid escape option. If the opponent is constantly pressuring, Ibuki can use this move to create space and reset the neutral game. In additon, this attack can be used to track her opponent, regardless how far apart they are from Ibuki. If they are out of range for the V-Reversal to connect, Ibuki can reappear in front of her opponent. While it won't result in a knockdown, she will be very close to her opponent to maintain offensive pressure.
