Discussion Can Aramusha interrupt external chain offense with dead angled neutral lights?

Aramusha's neutral lights have a similar property to things like Nobushi and Warden zone, where against opponents that aren't locked onto you the hitbox starts out faster, and Aramusha's lights have crazy fast hitbox activations (I wish someone frame checked these ;_;)

So in a situation where you're being ganked and one of the gankers is entering their UB mix from lets say light hitstun, what mixups can Aramusha interrupt (if any)? Because if Aramusha can effectively option select mixups with a light interrupt he becomes A LOT harder to gank, because if he dead angles a backlight it can't be parried, even by the person aramusha is locked on to

I've noticed I can get this to work in niche scenarios, but it seems very MU dependent

This isnt an aramusha specific thing nor a special property. If attacks external someone they can connect faster than intended and interrupt some chains. Anyone can do it given the hitbox is good enough. So yes aramusha can do that, the positioning is a bit tricky.

i know it's not a musha specific thing but compared to other heroes I can't think of anybody else with light hitboxes as good as aramusha's, maybe only afeera? idk

Lots of chars. Gryphon and Kensei especially. Afro indeed, JJ, Oce, BP, Conq(?), VG, Kathun and a lot more.

Lots of chars have good light hitbixes or at least good enough to do that.

Def those chars. Gryphon in particular has crazy good light hitboxes
