After Inspiration & Influence from Maximilian's Combo Video:

All Tested on Superman, of Course

ji3, 21, Close Ground Blast MB, Dash, 112 xx Zod Charge = 39%

j3, 11 xx Close Ground Blast MB, Dash, 11 xx Phantom Zone Strike MB = 41%


The following combos (impractical though they may be) came as a result of trying to get ji3, F213 to connect after the Ground Blast. I figured what the hell, and used Trait to connect it together...
These are timing specific in two ways:
1. You have to begin your jump as the PZ Monster appears, basically right after you hit Trait This could be applied after a hard knockdown as a mix-up involving what I'm estimating will be many unblockable set ups using the PZ Monster. Instead of doing an unblockable, you just go for these...
2. The second time you hit trait, you have to wait for the opponent to bounce in the air so you can ji3.

Trait, ji3, 12, Close Ground Blast MB (wait for opponent to be in air a bit), Trait, 123 xx Phantom Zone Strike MB - 50%
Trait, ji3, 12, Close Ground Blast MB (wait for opponent to be in air a bit), Trait, 12 xx Zod Charge MB - 51%

The best thing to do with Zod when your opponent is caught by the trait grab is do the Haters Gonna hate walk toward your opponent and finish them off with a simple combo into mb phantom zone

 

[bobross]

57% 4 bars + trait

If you can't make it out because of the quality it's (trait active) j2, f213, T, F213, T, Super
Alternatively, for more meter efficiency, you can do j2, f213, T, F213, T, 112, bf2 MB(or bf3 MB) for 47%

@AeroGrunt
Hey Grunt I know this sounds kinda shallow but could you give me creds in the OP? I've never really contributed much so I never really got credit for anything so it would be cool for me
I posted almost all of the best meterless/traitless combos on the second page this morning and kept them relatively organized to ease up your job.

Of course. Thank you for contributing.

Downloaded Zod this morning, but I found a pretty good combo, being an overhead/low, I tend to land it with ease online:

Ji-2 ' B12 xx DB1 MB ' Dash ' B3 ' Ji-3 ' 123 xx BF2 (41% Damage)

 

[AeroGrunt]

AeroGrunt sorry to bother you, but the Trait combos that you have has the DB grab don't use an EX Ground Burst, but a fully charged ground burst.

I have no idea what that means, I've only played Zod for like 10 minutes haha. So I should take the "MB" off all combos that have db4 in them?

 

[DominicanAddy94]

Mid screen trait super combo.
Ji3, 11D2 Trait, F213 Trait, F2 Super. 63%

Is his Trait making the game go SloMo for anyone else on PS3?

Online or off? Because I did notice it tends to lag matches when used online.

Video of the combo my friend (SRM|Mad King) and I came up with using your idea from earlier. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you; The Kickball Loop.

 

[EGP Wonder_Chef]

Here are my bnb's so far

Midscreen 1 bar:

F21U3 xx Slow DB1 > J2 xx DB1 > Dash 12 xx MB Close DB2> Dash 123 xx BF3 41%


AA meterless:

D2 > J2 xx Slow DB1 > J2 xx DB1 > 123 xx BF2/3 (29% with BF2, 28% with BF3)

Corner meterless:

F21U3 xx Slow DB1 > J2 xx DB1 > J2 xx Fast DB1 > F3 > 123 xx BF3 42%

Haha sorry I should have been clearer, the only one that should change is the Trait Combo where it starts off with DB4 or DF4, EX Ground Burst. So for that just put Fully Charged Ground Burst or something. This is the only time you can combo into a Full Charged Ground Burst just because the Wraith holds the opponent for so long.

Also the FCGB launches them for a B3 combo if you're still confused.

How do you charge it?

 

[TJ Casters]

How do you charge it?

Hold 2 down.
Depending on charge, ground blast does 5% with opponent stumbling, 8% with tiny knockback (too small for combo), or 12% with huge bounce.

 

[ll Nooby ll]

How do you charge it?

Hold 2.
There's the no charge, which stuns them for a bit.
Then a half charge, which knocks down.
And then the fully charged that launches for a combo.

Also the more it charging, the bigger the Hitbox on the blast. You can also dash cancel it when you're charging.

 

[AeroGrunt]

Hold 2 down.

Hold 2.

Ok I added it now, thanks.

Any timing tips on getting the last two 3's to connect in that Kickball Loop you guys came up with. I can get the starter, and two 3's but after the second the trait always whiffs.

 

[Wasted]

Holy shit you guys are making this complicated.

40%, 1 bar: F21 xx MB Close blast, jump, delayed J3, F213 xx Zod Charge. None of this F21U3 xx DB1 shit...

That combo was already posted earlier.

 

[Wasted]

Mah bad...people keep posting overly complex stuff that I missed it.
