Anti Air Combos

[Bimz]

So what are Jax's good AA's and combos? We all know about db1 but its too slow to pull off on reaction. Crouchjab works much better and can lead into a 1 2, air gotcha at the least.



Share what you find..

crouchjab dash 1 2, dash 1 2, dash punch (19%) en24% )

Whatever > (dash > 1)x? > Gotcha Grab/Air Gotcha Grab/Dash Punch/EX Dash Punch (??%)

And Air Gotcha isn't too slow to do on reaction considering you get invulnerability to air attacks when you start it. The issue is it can't deal with cross-ups well; but on normal jump-ins, reaction with it is possible and possibly preferable.

 

[Bimz]

why do that when you could just uppertcut through it for the same damage though?

 

[BigDaddyKrames]

Air invulnerability, a switch in positioning if that's what places them closer to the corner, and untechable knockdown. And a bit of meter, I guess.

 

[Bimz]

i see.. didn't know about the untechable kd

 

[BigDaddyKrames]

Oh, right, and it grabs through armor, so it'll beat out Kung Lao's EX Teleport, Cyber Sub-Zero's X-ray, EX Dash Punch, etc. I usually just base my decision of which one to use solely on which side I want them to be on, but some people might prefer the zoning game with ground pounds after the uppercut over the alternative...

Can the air grab really stop CSZ xray?

 

[BigDaddyKrames]

Hmm, I could've sworn I've grabbed through armored moves, but I just tested it again and I guess it doesn't actually grab armored moves, but they take damage from the hand hitting them and you invuln right through it.

I feel that jax lacks good ground combos

but I anti-air w/ 1,1,1,1,1,1,2~DF2

I'm happy doing f4 1 3, df3, b1,2,4, dash punch. Can be tricky landing the gp though.

Air grab gives a little pressure =/
