    1. I was thinking the same thing

    2. From Alex himself:
      Dan grab = cc grab method
      1. Cc
      2. Get hit
      3. Hold R or L
      4. Mash A and Z
      This will let you input multiple grab inputs to try to get one out fast as possible.

    3. Is it better to JC grab off of crouch?
