Bane's Big Bad Half-Life Combo Punishment Guide (50% and Up Only!)

Guys, I am sick of seeing little shitty bane punishes like d1 xx dp. Were ALL guilty of it, on blast for resorting to special moves as punishes because that's like 70% of our gameplan -_-...

Rule of thumb: Any combo involving lvl 3 venom + mbb3/f3 will = 50%+
This character's combo potential is fantastic, lets apply it!

This thread will be the place for character specific punishes (and special move punishes) that make your opponent rage.

Help me fill this list. Be specific, so the other Banes know exactly in what *practical* scenario you can punish a special/normal/blocked or whiffed/etc

Note: this is NOT and oki thread! We have enough of those already.

Submit yours, for the betterment of the Bane community. Whether its a new combo, or a new place a currently mentioned combo applies. Help out!




Abbreviate for short:
Combo 'A' = 113 xx (go to level 3) xx mbb3 + some ender
Combo 'B' = (go to level 3) mbf3 BodySplash + some ender *
Combo 'C' = 1 xx (go to level 3) xx mbb3 + some ender
Combo 'D' = B2 xx (go to level 3) xx mbb3 + some ender **
Combo 'E' = F2d xx (go to level 3 or be there already) xx mbb3 + some ender

*Using the first hit to armor thru something gives less damage, might not be above 50%, this is best on whiff, the first hit will do 11*1.5*1.5 = 24.75% LOL
**Changed from B23xx... to B2xx... because b23xx... scales and b2xx.. does more damage

Aquaman:
Block and Punish with 'A'
-Scoop
-From the Deep (close range)

Dunno how viable any of these are, but here are some punishes that I've had success with:
  1. Punish WoWo's Lasso Spin with option B.
  2. Punish DS's Sword Flip with option A or b23, 123+any ender
  3. Punish Scorpion's Standing Teleport with neutral jd3 into a full combo or option A (neutral jd3 as Scorpion teleports. Bane will connect as he's landing and you can combo into it)
  4. Punish Shazam's wakeup teleports by jumping back and doing jd3 into option A or b23, 123+ender
  5. Punish Batman parry with b23 xx mbb3 j2 12+ender (since Batman's parry only parries high/mid)
  6. Punish Zod Charge with option A
Edit: I just realized that you were looking for punishes 50% and higher, my bad!

Green lantern: blocked lift can be punished by options A and D. B1, 3 rocket power set up can be dashed out of and punished with option A.

Aquaman: blocked trident scoop can be punished with options A and D. Close range from the deep can also be punished by options A and D. Bear in mind aquaman can trait out of these punishes.

Batgirl: blocked smoke bomb can be punished with options A and D.

Other than D2/D3 = Combo A and Combo B for any string canceled into God Smack for Ares, that's about all I can think of. Everything else is knowing his gaps and when to armor through.

Both options A and C will do for a blocked Superman Super. High level players don't seem to use his Super much, but on-line ones get tired of getting oki raped and will try to wake up with it. And A and C work everytime should you scout it :)

I will also promote option E: on lvl 3 F2Dxxmbbb3+some ender. Fabulous for Grundy's :D

Do you know what range catdash and ex catdash can be punished by our 9 frame standing 1... I know not full screen...? @GGA 16 Bit

E is in :) however I couldn't add the Superman super because he's slighlt airborn at the end.
 
Black Adam. If you read a lightning cage you can backdash and dash back in while still using option D.
Ares after a whiffed godsmack pretty much any option works haha.
Hawkgirl punish mace charge by doing jump back jd3 and then A.
Batman on blocked or whiffed slide I use option D.
Sinestro blocked Arachnid you can pretty much do anything.
Lex Corp Charge option A works.

Type some more later I'm rather lazy at the moment.

True he is airborne. I do know that you can do 113xxsuper when supes is set to reveral super and it will connect for over 50%. I honestly need to work the bbmb's into my game more.

I would put the super combos, but they always = above 50%. Its cool man, every little bit helps.
 
Very cool.
Do you mind explaining option 1; Are you saying while she's waking up, let her whiff the lasso spin or armor thru?
WoWo has invincibility frames on wakeup, right? If you let the armor from the mbb3 absorb the hit first, that should allow the b3 to hit. Otherwise, you can space yourself so that she whiffs and you can safely b3 her anyway.

EDIT: This are mostly head theories, will test in practice later

EDIT #2: Both armoring and spacing the b3 will punish lasso spin
