STH Taunting through Shock
So I have been noticing through several matches that when I shock STH, he will still throw up his taunt, which should be useless. However, when I hit STH he still grants turn meter to his allies even ...

Debatable. The taunt is a hard state that is applied and can be cleansed. The follow on effect of TM grant is a hard stat in that it can not be cleansed. While EP's shock will block the taunt and does not allow the hard state the follow on effect is still applied... like wise if Han's taunt is cleared by someone like Sun Fac the add on state will also not clear.
Now, why would you hit him after you blocked or cleared his stun? In the old days..heh heh.. I was a big advocate of STH dies first due to the random tm reduction on his turn. But with the new speed mods and such it is best to clear him and leave him alone till last or near last even if he is speed modded.
Thats actually not true, if someone dispels Han's taunt, when he is hit he no longer grants turn meter to the rest of his team. It seems that it should really only grant turn meter while Han is actually taunting, but Shock being Shock just makes it so you don't have to target him, but he will still do the turn meter gain effect, unlike where if you fully dispel the taunt after it goes up, the turn meter gain doesnt happen. I would vote bug in this case, but thats just me.
