Normal flamethrower. It goes through the clone and they need to block it. You can use it as a reversal and it's relatively safe. I think they can reversal slide but if they're respecting it then you can jump forward and kick or air dash.
I'll give it a try cheers.

What's your normal zoning strategy? I'm curious for any tips to improve my own
-When they are full screen lay uprockets around the place
^either on them or infront (as a read if you think they will run) (don't spam them tho. It's more reads)
-straight rocket to stop running and jumping but don't fire them if they are in his b2 distance
-mb straight rocket is insane and needs to be used. It breaks some advancing armour and is pretty much impossible to jump.
-mb up rocket is also insane and makes your opponent respect you.

MB up rocket is a tool I need to use more. I usually try for a 50/50 or do the f2 string.
As for b2, I tend to flub the spacing on that one, what do you normally cancel it into?

Cancel b2 into exstraight rocket or dd3( if spaced properly)
-mb should also be used as a 50/50 opportunity and can be for more zoning or frame traps

Triborg hype died down, both because of the patch (even though Sektor didn't get hit much) and because he's been out for a while now.

I don't know why, i can't find one cyrax, smoke, sektor or cyber sub online now :(. They're still good. People should adapt.

It's just you, it seems every rando has a pocket Sektor.

I noticed that too and i have no idea why. Sektor is still plenty good, good zoning, good mix ups, good footsies, GREAT dmg anywhere on the map. because f212bb restands he can convert off of literally anything, the best anti air s1 in the game (at least from what ive seen, seriously, the hit box on standing 1 for him is down right dirty, and he gets a braindead combo conversion afterwards that leads to great dmg. 38% for one bar.) His air to airs are obviously easy, regular up rocket and mb up rocket are decent for pressuring tools and setting up your 50/50's, and teleport can be made virtually safe for a bar of meter (mix it up between charging them after teleport and not charging). he also has decent armor for defense. He's got alot of tools and is very well rounded in my opinion. I still play him anyways.
 
What does the BB in sektors combo notation stand for? I thought I knew but now I'm unsure. Wanna make sure I'm not off lol.

Nah just you, Sektor is the only triborg I see people use anyways as of the 3/29 patch as triborg got slained in the most recent patch.

It stands for "BackBack" The full input would be: Forward212BackBack it cancels the hit the knocks your opponent away and it restands the opponen allowing for a teleport that does combo. Or you can go for up rockets at the end of combos for pressure.

Okay thank you. I thought it was back back but I didn't know if it maybe stood for bionic blast or even something else.
