I wanted to put together an Acidic Online Guide, short and simple. many others iv'e seen online complain about the complexity of some of Aliens Intermediate and above Combos,Setups, and OKI enders being to difficult to pull off online. and from what i herd was the general consesus on youtube was just that, most videos combo videos where to hard to pull off Online.
well hopefully after this the general public mostly casuals will know what Combos is easier to do in a 200ms+ connection and whats ok to do in a 100ms connection and what is ok to use below 100MS connections.
My button key is:
1= X on (XB1) and Square on (PS4)
2= Y on (XB1) and Triangle on (PS4)
3= A on (XB1) and X on (PS4)
4= B on (XB1) and Circle on (PS4)
Notation:
RC= Run Cancel
EX=Enhanced Special
XX=Cancel
D= Down on Dpad
U= Up on Dpad
F= Forward on Dpad
B= Backwards on Dpad
Combo Tier Explination:

By all means my thread will not have the best damaging combos or all available combos, starters or enders. but will have enough to get those Online Warriors using Acidic Alien Effectively.

B3 xx EX Tail Flip, NJP, U3, D2, EX Quick Dash, F23434 xx Acid Blood- Situational F + Throw (Intermediate) <Uppercut combo>
Any Combos that have U3 two times in them like EX Tail Flip,U3,NJP,U3,33 xx Acid Blood are not Female Friendly, this means they are very difficult to land on Female Characters: Cassie, Mileena, Sonya, D'vorah, Jacqui, Tanya make it Hard to land these combos, and even harder Online.
The trick is to change it up a bit, simply remove the U3 before the neutral jump punch. it makes the Combo 10x easier, and the input timing easy even on 250ms connections.
Many more combos and tech to come, as well as many more simple and complex combos to be added, a work in progress. add a combo, and i will give you your due credit above it. I took some combos from a @lookgirlitsteejay thread:

Main Gameplan for Alien
the gameplan for Alien is to use many of Her strings to launch them into the corner, and while doing so stack Poision damage on the way, almost every tool in Aliens arsenal is ment for Space control and Launching them to corner.
F4 is a great AA that knocks back, U3 AA's mid range jumpins and Jump range JIP's. F134 string sends them flying, DF3 (Xeno Strike) is also ment for that extra range, and anti jumpin's as well as Anti NJP's and can be used to put them on puddles in corner and keep them there.
once you get them in the corner, your goal is to Mix up and launch them up, so you can, get the Restands going after stacking Acid on them while in juggles. U3, D4, Acid Blood and Exo Sting are great for Stacking.
what you probably don't know is everything is situational, even though it may not be hard to mix them up with aliens plethora of Mixups, it is hard to guess how they are gonna get out in the corner.
F13 xx EX Tail Flip, U3, NJP, U3, 33 xx Acid Blood - 35-45%
is a great Mixup and Stack combo into Restand with Acid blood that leaves you mildly plus. the issue is keeping them in the corner and in that puddle thats the challeng, if you use Her best MID F1 frame perfect after they get caught in Acid Blood restand, they can not Jump over and out. but what they can do is Beat out your 10 Frame mid with an 8 frame Normal or faster poke string or starter,
that means you where only Plus 1 after that Acid Blood maybe Plus 2. but if you use his Low starters like B113 they can low profile poke that first hit with anything faster than 11 frames. and if you use the B3 Tail flip starter than they can Jump over you and out of corner, and out of puddle.
its all in guessing what they will do before you execute but also doing it quickly so they don't have even more options.
but what they always will have the option for is Armoring out of corner with any character with an armor. be ready to bait if you think they will, but essentially its all a guess game.

because that thread was awesome, and even though I knew most of those combos. I want those members to get the credit. because they have done so much for the alien community.

these are the users i speak of! i Tip my hat to them!
Now some of you may not have a hard time landing these combos at all, that could be a combination of your TV's Input Delay, Controller/Hitbox Delay, Internet, Skill level, or Muscle Memory. but there are people with any of these working against them as well as Casuals who have a hard time with combos. That's what this guide is, i ask the whole of TYM Alien Acidic Players to contribute so others who are not as good as we are or have other complications working against them can get better with Acidic Alien.
