What is the most damage out of a d1 link that people are getting with 1 bar?

I usually do:

d1 iceberg MB b3 ji3 f113 slide u3 d2 = 38%

I think if you're going to use a bar you should do mb grab for the standing reset not the iceberg stuff. You're not really sacrificing damage. So off d+1 I'd do d+1~slide, u+3, 2,2~grab, jump 2, f113~daggers

Here is another one that ends in the standing reset with 1 bar:

f113 slide u3 u3 22 grab MB nji2 f113 daggers (49%/51%) (without jump in/ with jump in) Source: GGA 16 Bit

slide/f+3, u+3, u+3, u+3, d+1~iceberg. Very easy meterless. Does 36%, so a little more than the dagger meterless combos.

BTW I have a request. For guides can the combos just be off slide or f+3? There is no point to adding jump ins and strings like f+1,1,3 at the beginning. It only makes the damage more confusing and misleading. Slide and f+3 are the main combo starters. Other openers that lead into slide are just icing on the cake. When I'm looking a guide I want it straight to the point.

There's no reason to not use MB Command Grab, f113 dagger as a combo ender. Its way too powerful to not use it

Agreed. Scar's concept of letting them thaw will be good against people that like to try to b+3 mb out of the daggers followups but otherwise this does more damage. With letting them thaw you're doing a little over 20% into a mixup that could do 60%. With the daggers ender you're doing 40% THEN they guess for another 40%.
