The combo counter resets when Aquaman's trait finishes. I found it in a match a while back but I'm pretty sure someone posted about it on Twitter so credit to them too.


It's the only way to balance Aquaman

He needs it

Then I don't understand how the trait functions. If he recovers in time so that the first combo ends, why isn't he able to block that MB F3? What causes him to be stuck in a limbo where all he can do is be hit in that situation?

Edit: poorly worded.
Why does the MB F3 start a new combo, instead of just continuing the last one?

Idk it's probably preventing him from just dropping out of the combo injustice 1 style. All of the top Aquaman's never get stuck in this position when I play them, they trait earlier.

It is tho. lol

You're not supposed to trait that late.
Lmfao the timing of the trait is because I had to record Aquaman traiting up and time it so that it ran out during breath with one controller.

However that's the least important thing to take from this. You could miss your trait timing by a frame and eat 95%. Or you could trait too early and Supes can wait it out until the last frame of MB breath to get the reset. Clearly this is busted.

I never played INJ 1 so I don't know how it worked in that game either. But this doesn't seem like it's working as intended imo, I doubt his trait was designed to let him eat 90% just for mistiming it.

If anything, I'd wonder why he was ever launched. Looked like he traited right before getting launched but got lifted anyway.

Otherwise, He is mid-juggle while trait is active (so it won't do anything) and he is then restood and frozen (so still technically in the combo). Next hit would grant him ability to slip out, but trait wears off right before so combo continues. Definitely something buggy with the combo counter tho.

We're all from Earthrealm. If not, cool pic brah.
Aquaman is a great character but lets not act like this buggy ass shit is a way to balance him. Definitely needs a fix
