Question from a fighting game noob

Oh. Any tips for Bane?


Oh cool.


Yes I have done that, thanks!

Cheers for all of the replies and advice people.

Command grab after everything. Make sure you use the venom to its maximum potential (wait until level 1 is almost gone, then level 2, wait till level 2 is almost gone, then level 3). MB his dash to get through projectiles. If you are playing online try and catch them with the anti air. Jump in with his 2. That is about everything at the top of my head. The corner is your friend. Bane has some really damaging corner combos. :16Bit

No problem buddy. If you're on Xbox feel free to send me an invite sometimes my gamertag is AeroGrnt (no "u" in Grunt)

Have PS3 and 360, but only play Injustice on PS3. Thanks though.

I'm not sure if venoming all the way up to level 3 is smart, the venom denial after that is really long isn't it? With just staying at level 1 the cooldown is a few seconds, allowing you to pop venom back up again. I don't play Bane though but I'd remember hearing that you should never go level 3 venom unless you're gonna win the match with it or do a super.

He is a high risk high reward character. It is how he gets most of his damage. His level 3 also gives him armor for projectiles I believe. It is definitely worth going up to 3. Afterwards you can just play keep away and throw interactables at your opponent. :16Bit

Doesn't his level 1 venom give him armor on his run too? I dunno man, NoxiousDonny check the Bane forums.

"I've been experimenting with the Venom in actual fights more and more. I've really only used lvl1 & 3 for the most part. 1 for armor on general/wakeup attacks, 3 for armor on projectile happy players and kill shots when I get a jump in or bounce etc. I do feel it's been best to pop lvl2 right when 1 is about to run out as the cool down isn't as bad as lvl3. Honestly I've had to use 3 more than I'd like to combat the instense projectile zoning from several a player to get in and give them some Bane love."​

Exactly. Read through that thread. I personally play him more like Scorpion. High risk high reward. You could probably play him low risk low reward if you wanted to... but then you should probably just play Grundy. :16Bit

I think it's more my style to as you say go the "high risk high reward" route. I'm a sucker for those 60% combos you can get with lvl 3 venom.

54% raw super

54% raw super

Yep, heh. Even something as simple as b3, j2, 11, super gets 63%.

Grundy gets 53% for one bar though, without any damage boosts.

Wow, pretty nice. Might give him a go, but I just prefer Bane as a character a lot more.

I was never the type to play well with the entire cast in a fighting game. In every street fighter game I played Guile unless he wasn't in that specific title, and in MK games I play Sub-Zero. In Injustice I feel like I'm pretty good with Batman. I tried messing around with other characters, but Batman is my hero lol. I'm more of a character loyalist. Like other people pointed out... It's nothing wrong having one main, but it does force to KNOW your match ups. Some people can be GOOD with a lot of characters, I'm not that guy though. I just learn my one character & work on the ins and outs of them.
