add d2, f3 instead of j2 for more damage

I'm sure that combo doesn't connect.

IIRC Tony T posted that combo or was it Aris?
I have tried it myself it works

It does, but does less damage because of the scaling on d2

 

[xInfra Deadx]

It does, but does less damage because of the scaling on d2

That's strange...but yeah, I'm not doing D2 to extend a combo any time soon. He needs all the damage he can get.

And ya, why would u do d2 f3 if just a plain old f3 does more damage.

 

[laial]

I find f3 easier to connect after b1u2 than j2 so that's what I use.

That actually does less damage. Remove the D2 and it does more.

I see thx for the heads-up

Background bounce combo after f3:

f3, j2, 3~interact, ji3, 323, 12~flip 42%


You can also do ji1 after the bounce for a much easier 323-timing and only do a couple % less damage.

 

[Mikman360]

Do 12 xx Flip to get all of the Flip hits to land

 

[Vagrant]

Ji2 b22 dbmb ji3 ji2 323 f23 flip.

Char specific, does 44 I believe. This combo makes b2 2 scary. It whiffs against some chars.

Ji2 b22 dbmb ji3 ji2 323 f23 flip.

Char specific, does 44 I believe. This combo makes b2 2 scary. It whiffs against some chars.

For smaller characters, DBMB whiffs after B22, but you can still do: JI2 B22 DBMB JI3 JI2 323 12~flip for 43%

Background bounce combo after f3:

f3, j2, 3~interact, ji3, 323, f23~flip 41% techable knockdown (last hits in sword flip whiffs)
f3, j2, 3~interact, ji3, 323, d1~flip 40% HKD

You can also do ji1 after the bounce for a much easier 323-timing and only do a couple % less damage.

Like Milkman said, you can replace f23 with 12 to get the full Sword Flip to hit - this will give the first combo 42% and a HKD.

EDIT: Not sure if character specific, but against Batman at least, you can also do:

F3, JI3, F2~Interact, JI3, 323, 12~Flip for 44%.

 

[laial]

Oh alright, changed it.

 

[Coddfish]

Off a corner interactable you can plant a bomb on (red car in Wayne Manor, Bat Signal in Gotham, torture rack in Joker's Asylum, etc):

Plant bomb, JI3, 323, 12~MB Spin, 12 Sword Flip - 44% (in Wayne Manor, not sure if other interactables of this type have different base damage or scaling).

Midscreen Spin standing resets:

b1u2, d2, f3, 323, f2~Spin = 31% (replacing f2~Spin with d1~Flip = 32%)
132, j2, 323, f2~Spin = 35% (replacing f2~Spin with f23~Flip = 37%)

From my testing, spin is STILL unsafe after a combo

why would spin be unsafe? i thought spin is +4 on hit?

It was rumored to be buffed to +4 on hit. But NEEEOOOOPPPEEE

That was a rumoured change that didn't happen. Spin is around neutral on a raw hit or short combo AFAIK, and negative on hit at the end of a juggle combo. I suspect it's a bug more than by design, but something about the way the move grounds an airborne opponent combined with gravity scaling seems to mess with the frames and make it negative

so what is it on hit then?? sword spin is safe on block too right?

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Neutral on grounded, negative on anti-air.

But on block I believe it's -7 or -6.

soo its pretty hard to punish on block then, which is good.

so what ur saying is, for right now its just better to end with sword flip then?

 

[Axel_Redd]

also how is it possible to connect an air j2 after an air j3?

It's been always better to end with Sword Flip. MANY options from it. Unless you want to initiaite the Ninja Vortex, which sacrifices a lot of damage but is a must use against characters DS ABSOLUTELY CAN NOT ZONE. Like Nightwing.

 

[Coddfish]

Do the J3 as late as possible, it will give you time to land and then J2. I believe this only works after a B3 launcher, but I could be wrong on that.
