No. Back walk into back dodge does avoid the soft feint. As is the case if Aramusha decides to deadly feint. However if Mushu ever makes the read for this (which is a fairly easy read mind you,) he can feint into GB and catch you every single time. Trying to roll this will get you caught by his forward dash heavy. So the mix is still semi weak to spacing but it's not bad like it was before.

Fun fact. If you delay your heavy input after you land ring the bell you can do a neutral heavy again which lets you soft feint right back into ring the bell thus creating a strong mix for Aramusha. And the best part is that it's totally unreactable. Even to the pro players.
