Ten Best Strings in the Game?

[Doombawkz]

Grundy Power Chain is the best string

 

[Lt. Boxy Angelman]

Worthy of respect: Deathstroke's B1U2 and Bane's B11.

You should see what he can do in the corner.
b.1 juggles all day Syncs really well with "Wop" also.

 

[Marcus]

no dooomsday?

I think zod's 213 is better than f213.

 

[SonicBoomBrad]

My favorite string is d1 Earth Shaker. Wait....

Bane in the corner with Venom is a lot like Jax in the corner with Meter...

...a fucking death sentence.

I don't get how Zod's F+2 1 3 can be said to have "decent" reach when F2 actually has longer reach than Aquaman's B+1 3.

 

[Axel_Redd]

Deathstrokes f23, if u hitconfirm a d1, the opponent has to block this which puts u at +9, (or 8, don't remember, its one of those 2)

 

[SonicBoomBrad]

no dooomsday?

I think zod's 213 is better than f213.

What string? 33? That's the only one that's even remotely decent. Doomsday has terrible strings. And you can still hit him out of the start up if you block the jump splash.

yup 33

 

[Cossner]

F1 by itself is +3

But then, that'd be a normal.

[TheBoyBlunder]

Nerf all those strings. Nerf em'.

What about NW's f213 in Escrima?

doesn't have enough range.

 

[dribirut]

lol zods f213 is ass man..

Martian manhunter's 22 and 3 on trait should be there imo

 

[TheBoyBlunder]

What about Hawkgirl?

 

[dribirut]

i think green arrows f2d13 string is veryy good as well

 

[LEGEND]

i don't agree with Flash's B22 being on that list and Aquaman's B12 is definitely better than GL's B13

 

[BigMilk]

321...oh wait, this isn't MK9...

Serious now, though...Zod d12 is solid as well. 7f string that is -1 on each hit, can lead to close to 40% 1 bar + free trait.

I wanted to post a kabal string so badly then I read your post and all my originality went out the window...

 

[Jimmypotato]

D1~Arrow

 

[yaoding09]

besides the obvious ones I like shazams f223. also arrows f2d13 is amazing.

 

[godlessmode]

lol zods f213 is ass man..

No. It's safe because it can be confirmed into either the launcher or bf3. Has ridiculous range for being a low starter. And with trait out it becomes GDLK from a mixup department.

D1~any combo starting special

FTFY

 

[AZ MotherBrain]

Definitely Arrow's F1,D2,3. It's good.
I think Wonder Woman's Sword stance B2,1 is a little underrated along with Doom's 2,2~grab, or any special.

 

[NY_Jailhouse]

F213 too slow to be considered IMO. Obviously ou can do a shitload with it with mixups though but it's bad as a footsie tool like the other ones on the list

That mmh one that hits low and then he does a little spinneroonie and stagger punches you is mad good

I was thinking about this today when talking to someone about Superman's F23 and the upcoming patch. I was talking about how i think Lantern's B1 will be the best string in the game if the rumors of some normalizations are true. So it also got me thinking on other strings that are just downright really good. Here is my top 10 and ill give a little brief explanation next to each one. These are in no particular order, just listed as they came to mind.

1- F23 (Superman) -We all know it, I doubt this needs any explanation.

2- B13 (Lantern) -9 frame sliding low with tons of shenanigans and options. The reach is insane too.

3- B12 (Aquaman) -9 frame reaching low as well and hit confirmable into big damage.

4- B113 (Wonder Woman) -11 Frame mid with decent reach. Plus frames on the staggers and does 41% meterless on hit.

5- B23 (Batman) -Incredibly good string all around and with the ability to get 40% meterless if you have a bat out its getting beyond dangerous. 12 Frames and has an overhead and the bomb traps.

6- B23 (Black Adam) -15 Frame overhead that has mad reach meaning a great whiff punisher. +3 on block and on hit gives 40% meterless and up to 46% meterless if B2 orbs is used.

7- B22 (Flash) -15 Frame reaching mid that is plus on both parts. Can be hitconfirmed into a 61% combo that costs 10% of a bar with trait used. Yeahhh...

8- F13 (Aquaman) -7 Frame mid where the first hit is +3 on block. Second hit is overhead giving him mixup potential that is safe vs a lot of the cast because of trait.

9- 33/B2 (Wonder Woman) -Writing this as a combo cause without the other one isnt as amazing as it would be. 33 is a 14 frame low that is +2 on block. B2 is a 17 frame overhead that has amazing reach and can be combo'd from at certain ranges and the corner. Each also leads to her insane meterless damage and can lead to hit confirmable mixups into super for 40% unclashable at the end of games.

10- F213 (General Zod) -15 Frame low that has pretty decent reach. Some people may disagree but i think the mixups and shenanigans off this string in the future will make us cry. With trait out this becomes a top 3 string in the game.

So is there anything i missed, do people disagree? Discuss.

flash's d12 and just f2 are better or just as good

mmh 223 in trait is op as fuck

batmans 123 id amazing also

green arrows f2d13

lots o good ones that perhaps slipped the mind of smurr

p.s. dont watch my matches on youtube from gunderground, im embarrassed to say that was me

You can interrupt 33 after body splash with what?

As previously stated, GA's queens gambit string (f2d13) STILL isn't blocked by a lot of people. And it can be cancelled at multiple points into a variety of arrows.
