After putting a couple of hours into it I can connect the 60% bnb no problem, its really not hard but you need to rewire your brain for the new timing. The secret is to delay the uppercut to wait for the recovery of the bomb. I also find that taking a small step back before putting the b2 under them helps keep it consistent; otherwise they sometimes fly over my head or I hit with the first hit of b2 and drop it.
Yeah i kinda haven't practiced it as much as i'd like to, i've been trying to find as much as i can in these few days.

Anyways how are you doing it, with mid bombs or close bombs? Cause' not only did i find it easier with a close bomb, you can't breaker the uppercut or you'll lose 2 bars and still get hit by the bomb.

Close bomb all the way man! Once in a while in the middle of a heated match ill do a midbomb out of habit, but im conditioning myself not to. The breaker proof factor is disgusting! I need to test that out.

i found the ex teleport give you frame advantage on block maybe.. i can do 2>1>ex teleport>3>3 and if he try to hit after and before the ex teleport i get a combo.
the reset still here but we need find the set up.

This needs to become a Cyrax/Cyblax player catchphrase. Lmao.

Safe EX Teleport advantage = people are gonna be popping veins in their foreheads...daaaaaaaaaaamn.
Just minutes ago I was playing against a Kitana. Villain was zoning, and with little bar left I IATeleported. When I reappeared in her back an Airfan hit me, made no damage, and I Xray him while kitana was in the air. I just wished I was in his room in that moment. His expression had to be priceless.

3 Seconds after Xray: "Your opponent has left the game" *Trollface*

Im starting to think most of his normals are slightly slower then robos. Ive been doing some combo practice with both of them and cyblax just doesnt seem to have the same flow as robo. I wish there was a way to test the frame data.

On a side note ive managed to get 2 of the same bomb to come out after a 1,2,1 with the robot! It is extremely rare and the conditions to make it work are HARD!

as far as i can tell, if you do a combo starting with 2,1,EX-tele, he'll randomly appear on either side of the opponent. sometimes you can connect with other combos, sometimes you cant.

as far as the 1,2,3,net reset goes, i've had better luck with 1,1,net instead. but i'm still trying to figure stuff as well. i wish you could do a tag match with cyrax/cyblax.

This is true. Its not really a viable combo starter because its to random. I did a couple of EXtele combos in my Round 3 combo vid. There fun but not reliable.

I don't really use ex tele unless its to kill but any combo off of it is dope. Tonight ill hit the lab and see what I come up with.

Heres a 1 bar reset for him guys..

uf+2, 2,1~net, uf+2, 2,1~EXbomb, closebomb, 3~net, (reset) u+2, b+2, 3,3~net, uf+4, 3~ragdoll+throw.... 66%

The even easier version does 65% and it ends with the standard after reset combo (u+2, b+2, 1,2,1~ragdoll+throw)

Just found a 1 bar 75% midscreen reset with him (breaker only escape). the easy version does 74% but in all honesty its hard to make work.

the reset is not working [MENTION=3981]TONY-T[/MENTION], they go immediately to the floor after the u+2, similar to doing 3 consecutive njp

Wich one are you trying? the 65% one? if so it sounds like your not connecting the 3~net quick enough.

Yes, and to me it seems I am connecting the 3 net as fast as I can. A video would be nice! Going back to practice mode :coffee: I am already doing the 58% bnb very consistently with h cyrax :)

Hmmmm!!! I think i came across a cool mix-up. It has nothing to do with this thread necessarily, and can probably apply to Cyblax and Cyrax. I came across it while messing around with Cyblax in the lab. It seems like the Cyraxes have frame advantage if you do something like this:

F2 (dont do the saw part) to air grab (to get close), and then your opponent either HAS to block or you can just start the string again or go into another combo, or you can go into command grab, or a throw. I see a lot of confusion on the opponent's end! I don't see this as a combo really, but it could be awesome for chip damage or going into more combos, etc. I don't know if Cyrax has frame advantage verses all characters with this tactic, so I have some testing to do. I see potential here.

EDIT: seems to have frame advantage on at least Cage and Kano. I'm done testing for the night.

I was using this in some match vids that i recorded last night. i dont think there is much frame advantage, im pretty sure they can jab you out of anything you try once landing from the air grab..

When you land from the air grab, it looks like Cyrax definitely can do 3,3. =) Your opponent HAS to block as far as I can tell. It will hit even if they jump, but I'm not sure how it would affect smaller characters like Jade.

I just saw you [MENTION=7861]scarsunseen[/MENTION] in the chaosrealm room asking to test some new cyrax tech hahaha
