Problems C.Viper can cause Fei Long
I've mained C.Viper since Street Fighter 4 and I intend to stick with her in Super Street Fighter 4. I very, very rarely faced a Fei Long in vanilla and definitely never faced a good one so the match-up is a whole new world to me. After watching East Coast Throwdown 2 it seems he can cause her quite a bit of trouble now that his Flying Kick/Chicken Wings are faster, and they have a decent amount of invulnerability on startup and to projectiles which helps him get round her Seismo -> Super Jump Cancel -> Seismo zoning chains.
Which leads me to my question, what things can a C.Viper player do to cause Fei Long problems, and who does the match-up favor?

The match feels pretty even for me. If I see the ground slam I can start CW but he can cancel into DP. Fei's Ultra 2 might scare them into being reckless with firekick. The damage they do feels pretty close. I will say that match is even. She has an answer for everything I can do, and vice versa. She has to react to CW fast and not let them spam her. DP, Ultra 1, or ex seismo on the last hit of CW with beat CW. Try to Seismo Fei from a distance to bait the CW, then punish it.
