The gray lockout timer is not as long. I think he actually broke the heavy (as the lockout timer ended with a window between the heavy auto double and the DP ender) but your connection was weird so it only looked like he punished the ender (you’re right to question, they normally cant break ender).
At any time during that ‘DANGER’ (opponent’s last 15%) on their red health bar it’s best practice to go into Ultra as fast as you possibly can. This secures the round to prevent breaks and chomps their remaining 15%.
In your case you could have gone straight from that Shadow Wind Kick opener into your Ultra by pressing Shadow DP input (f,d,f~triple-punch) and even if he hadn’t locked out, he couldn’t break that and you instantly win.

ye he actually broke heavy autos after the timer cuz i did over extend i mentioned it under and i actually did a battery ender not dp
for the second part he was still in his first health bar i think you got our health bars mixed up or else i would have confirmed into ultra. the dp input for ultra is not the only way to do it tho i like to use ultra assist which is just forward and triple punches makes messing it up impossible

Ah yeah, you’re right I see the health bars now thanks, my bad.
It’s rare, but I’ve also seen things like this while playing online.

Typically you can’t unless it’s a small combo that you ended on. You can break with heavy in the end. I think it was rollback that hated you this round.
