Let's get creative up in here, and this is also a good way to show NRS that custom variations aren't OP and could be used in a tourney and/or ranked settings. Let's discuss her custom variations, best moves, and best combos together. Once we figure some cool set-ups and combos out, I'll add it all to the OP!

  • Shoulder Charge (BF2)
  • Bitchin' Bubble (BD4)

F4,1 + Low gunshot AMP * J2 * B2,4 + Shoulder charged AMP 30% (32% with charged guns)

1 bar
B1,3 * B2,4 * Shoulder charge AMP 25% (27% with charged guns)

Be careful with shoulder charge, if you use it in a juggle and the opponent is too low to the ground, you'll spend a bar just to watch Cassie throw herself on the ground. And tho that's funny AF, it feels bad, man.

Zoning Variation:
  • Low gunshot (DB1)
  • Control BLB ()
Set ups:
B2,4 + low gunshot AMP * J4 * F4,1 24% (control BLB shock as the opponent is getting up)
BLB shock * B1,3 * B2,4 + Nut kick AMP 25%

tbh I don't combo much as I setup.
like the string where cassie glow kicks, bitchen bubble then lowgunshot to throw them into the bubble. mostly I just use reads and go with the flow, hitting them before me, so I don;t have any real combos Lmao

Yeah, I feel this game is not super combo heavy in the way that you don't need to do them to win. I like it though, combos are my thing.

And I noticed tauntes are based on distance so you gotta be REAL close for the dab I think. Also RIP ME on mobile

They will soon enough, it's a nice change of pace. I feel I know my gameplan well enough with Digital Soldier, I wanted to learn more of her specials and see what combo potential she has with them. It seems she gets an easy 5% damage more with bitchin' bubble and shoulder charge. But again it's not astronomical and it's nothing game breaking.

Many people forget you can do this but you can attack when you bounce off the wall. Wonder if you can combo off that?

Control BLB-118 is an interesting move. There are 2 things about it that people don't seem to really know about. The first is you get the same amount of shots per second (maybe slightly faster?) if you cancel the "stance" after every shot then go back into it, so you're not left wide open. The second is you can make every shot safe on block against most characters. 1 can be made safe against every character at any distance (around -4 if done right). 3 is safe at any range that isn't point blank against most characters because it has a lingering hitbox and you can drift in at the last moment to always be less negative (around -8 if done perfectly). 4 is ALWAYS plus on block, and you can get extreme plus frames if you drift up while firing. This leads to a bit of a 50/50 situation where you can mix between 4 and 3. If they block, 4 gives plus frames for additional pressure while 3 is safe. They can get out of 4 if you're doing it without enough hit advantage, but 3 will stun them for a combo if they guess wrong.

The move could probably use a buff, but it does have some potential use.

If it's a bad pun, damn right I'm gonna say it
Nice to see a kustom variant discussion here. Tried starting something of one up on the Jax forums but it didn't take too much.

Any way of getting Bitching bubble out relatively safely? I haven't really found anything to cover it.
Also how is everyone thinking of her cyborg esc advance moves?

An example of a Control BLB-118 setup. Leads to a decent combo even mid screen and is safe on block. DO NOTE HOWEVER that the way I moved BLB-118 in the video is not the optimal way to do it. You want to move it down a bit and not just forwards so the enemy can't low profile it. This is somewhere around -9 or -10 on forward roll (it's possible it can be safer but it's hard to test since the frame data display can't help with this) so you can be poked or even punished if your opponent manages to be nearly frame perfect, but you also get a full combo punish on them if you predict they will roll so it's not a big deal. Cancelling stance causes you to be from around -1 to +4 depending on what you cancel from. Back roll is punishable if you predict it, but the timing is tight for the best meterless punish and it doesn't work off of every cancelled string due to distance. Use dash up B13 into a delayed B24 nut kick to punish back rolls. F2 has the most hit advantage when cancelling from so it is the safest and most reliable option, but not the most damaging. It also leaves the opponent close enough for back roll punishes, but you can't really use F2 on B24 kneecappin followups due to the weird angle. I have yet to test out the corner and using abilities other than kneecappin.

2,1,D2? I do it after a D4 since they tend to block after that.

Its Game Over, Man
1,1,1 + Low gunshot AMP * J2 * B2,4 + Nutkick AMP works for 32% with 2 bars, since I've found it to be a bit too difficult to land the Shoulder Charge AMPed consistently (the animation works, but it whiffs, so you're burning meter for nothing). Plus, this works as a universal combo, so it can be used in either Digital Soldier, Yaas Queen or any custom build since Nutkick is in every build.
