Team Cyrax/Cyrax :)

[scarsunseen]

Woohoo! I get to play 200% of my favorite character! Here's my current BnBs. The 2nd one is easier.

I also think it's cool that you can position Kameo Cyrax behind Main Cyrax and do the B1 side-switch as a combo starter. Does anyone else play this team?

I think when you do Cyrax net combos, you should set the practice settings to start with 2 bars of super meter. That way you can see how much you give the opponent vs how much you drain. I'd think it might be better to net them as early in the combo as possible to reduce their chance of building breaker. But I don't use Cyrax so maybe that fucks with scaling too much

Thanks for making this thread. I think all character forums should have kameo specific threads. It's alot easier to find what you're looking for I feel

The problem with netting early in the combo is that you really want to be using net as an ender to then set up bombs for oki - unless you're going to use EX db4 as an ender, which isn't the worst idea considering you could drain 2 bars lol

Interesting, my first thought was netting them early too but thinking maybe damage scaling was too high. But this makes sense. I'll definitely have to try this team out in a few weeks.

@scarsunseen how you like the team so far compared to Sindel/Cyrax?

I agree with wsj515. End in kameo's net and then set up bombs. If you really need an early net to prevent a breaker, just do kameo net right after foam and modify your combo.

@SaltShaker I like this team! I've only been practicing for like 4 days, so it's hard to compare to Sindel/Cyrax. I miss Sindel's DB3 for the kameo recharge. With Cyrax/Cyrax, the kameo meter recharges a lot anyway because the combos take forever. I'm definitely not dropping Sindel/Cyrax. <-still a top tier team.

When I first started playing MK1, I chose to build a team around Sindel/Cyrax because their combined moves just felt like a complete "Cyrax" from previous games. Now that we're post-Khaos, Sindel, Cyrax, and Kameo Cyrax all have multiple ways to manipulate meter. Cyrax and Sindel both have ex-projectiles that goes through your opponent's projectile.

40% meterless I gotta lab out some bomb setups and corner stuff.
