Just call me Kruce
Looking for some a list corner combos. Damage doesn't seem as high as stunt double
Here's what I've been using.

113 xx DB4, 2 xx DB4, 114 xx BD3
(30%)

F24 xx DB4, 12, 12, 12, 12 xx BD3 (29%)

You can use meter on the NutPunch in both and follow up with 12 xx BD3 to get up to 33 - 34%.


On a separate note, I came up with this mid screen universal meterless combo. It's very tight timing, so tight it might be impossible online, but it does work for all variants of Johnny.

F24, 12 xx Run, 12, F3 xx BD3
(26%)

You can use meter for more damage and corner carry.

F24, 12 xx Run, 12, F3 xx EX BD3, F3 xx BD3
(35%, 1 Bar)

EDIT: Shoutouts to @SEV, for beating me to the combo thread. I don't think A-List can get the third 12 in the combo due to the slower start up on NutPunch.

fuck doing f24, d1, f24 nut shit whiffs all the time and isn't worth the work.

Stop using 11 in combos, 12 is better.

In a list, f24 d1 f24 is very consistent. However in fisticuffs and sd it's much harder due to faster np

I've had no problems getting f24, d1, f24 xx np to land in any variation - A-List's delayed nut punch does the work for you, and if you're utilising it with the other variations then you need to do a slight pause before or after the d1 for it to connect or the np goes underneath.

I don't think spacing is an issue as f24 is an advancing normal. It's more just about getting the delay right so the np connects. What characters are you guys whiffing against?

Here's a stunt double combo I found not sure if it's been posted yet but here it is.

F24,21,mimic rising shadow, run cancel f3, mimic rising shadow, run cancel throw 34%

It's a meter less midscreen combo that requires two charges of mimic but it's still pretty viable.

So i was trying to maximize my punishes and came up with another corner A-list combo.

4,Skrc,121(Charge to Full), d1, 4 MBNP, 12,12,12,12NP - 42%

Pretty neat for one bar considering a-lists damage isnt that high in General...

Stunt double corner mimic stuff, dont know if this was posted yet sorry if im repeating;
b34~mimic~db1 is a true combo in corner.

Example; b34~mimic~mrs, 4~mrs, 12,12,12, 113 EX nut 4 nut 50-51% ish hitconfirm from b34~mimic
b34~mimic~shadowkick, is a frame trap on block, and if shadowkick hits then you can follow on with d1. b34~mimic~shadowkick, d1, 12, 12, 12, 113 ex nut 4 nut or similar for 40%ish

Also has anyone experimented with ending corner combo with b2~mimic? Can use a meaty d1/d4~shadowkick to break some armoured moves and stay + on block, d1 combos after shadowkick hits in the corner. Not the best use of a mimic but it seems safe enough to throw about once in a while just to freshen the pace.

It has been known and posted. It's fine though since everything you said is accurate.

In Fisticuffs and Stunt Double you can get 29% midsceen meterless. I feel like it was posted but I couldn't find it. It's not easy and I'm probably not going to learn it enough to get it consistently but it is possible for anyone who cares.
f24, 12, rc, 12, rc, 12, f3xxbd3 29%

Optionally you can do f24, d1, f24, d1, f3 xx np (29%) - I actually find this easier than f24 into 12, the timing seems a bit more lenient.

These are so stupid hard to do consistently in the heat of battle. And Johnny cant afford to drop a nut punch in a match now, imagine in a year when he's downloaded.

Honestly, I think his most efficient, easy to do combo will be this: F2,4, D1, 1, RC~12, F3~Nut punch. 25%. So easy. So very fucking easy

You can get 64% with F24 xx Ex FB D1 4 xx Clone DB1 4 xx Clone DB1 NJP 114 xx Nut (red shadow) and 55% (Yellow)

Or you can do this without committing to ex FB off F24 straight away.

F24 D1 4 xx CDB1 4 xx CDB1 NJP 12 114 xx Ex Nut 4 xx Nut = 58% (red shadow) and 51% (yellow)

It's called red shadow you also gain a new throw I believe it affects every move except the nut punch and it works in all variations.

You can also do this for 55% and I feel it's a little easier because d1 is more reliable than 1 after EX FB in corner.

F24 xx Ex FB D1 4 xx CDB1 4 xx CDB1 NJP 114 xx Nut = 55%
