Same rule applies for fbc combos as well, give it some time until muscle memory starts kicking in. It's still too early if it's only been a couple of days since you picked him up.

Just wanted to say you were right brother, thanks for the reassurance! The encouragement from you and knowledge that it can take quite a while to perfect, really helped make it less stressful and frustrating for me and also gave me motivation to try again. I flattened out the muscle memory a bit for an hour or two today, and now I feel like I've really got a grip on the (21xxFBC s4xxTP) cancel, and I'm now at a point where I can land a couple of BnBs (214xxTP, 21xxChain, FjP F4xxFA, 21xxFBC s4xxTP + JiKxxTP, 21xxChain, FjP F4xxFA, 21xxFBC s4xxTP) multiple times in a row! Still a bit awkward and I flub the muscle memory every now and again and do something random, but the more I do it, the more natural it becomes, a month or so of doing it and I'm sure it will be second nature. I'm now the opposite of disheartened as I feel that if I can get this, I can definitely get the rest of the character, there is definitely a heavy execution barrier here, but it'll be worth it.
Glad I helped mate, keep it up! It is indeed heavy execution but it gets really satisfying in the long run!
Day 3 off Hellfire now, is it safe to say [B3xxFBC, B12xxFA] is the creme de la creme of the cancels? I haven't practiced it for a long time just yet, but this one seems really hard. I guess I'll try nail it tomorrow. I've got my BnBs consistent with mid combo cancels and nailing the flame aura links, and I can do 3 reps of 214 loops, but this B3 FBC seems like the hardest one yet. I can get [B3xxFBC, 21xxFA] and as far as I can tell, 21 does the exact same damage, same start up, and same reach as B12? Are these two interchangeable here, or is there some advantage from going B12? I'll grind it out either way I guess.
B3 is definately one of his stronger tools and sometimes I like to use f4xxfbc after restands to mix it up with the classic f4xxEx spear, and keep opponents on blocking. B12 is also great for ending blockstrings cause people have to respect it otherwise they eat b121 and you get guaranteed ex hellfire. I barely use it as a starter cause even on hitconfirm b12xxfbc can't connect with another 214xxtp etc..
Really?? Like it has not linked 1 time?
I'm using pad.
If you are not getting scorp to actually cancel the fireball with a run at all then most likely you are not holding in the 1 button after the db1 input. Although for any of the run cancel stuff you have to hold down 1 so I doubt that is your problem but just throwing it out there. If the auto block bot is just able to block the string after the run cancel you are just either cancelling into run too late or inputting the string too late, those are the only things that could keep it from linking.
Yeah idk. I've been doing this for the last 7 months. Still haven't gotten this combo down. lol smh
I'm only nearly a month into Hellfire but I'll give you my opinion, tho if someone else posts maybe listen to them because they've been playing the character so long.Hey. I am suffering inputting FRBC fast enough to connect combos. I think I am not capable of doing this. It is too fast for my fingers or idk.
I like this variant but without proper FRBC it is quite luxury to use.
Should I forget hellfire then?
Yes, you might be right. And I already feel that this tool is missing from my arsenal. Without that one of the best tool is missing from the character. I like scorpion very much and his other tools and generally how he works but fast execution hurts me.
Sure it is the best way to use meta combos/moves. I try to build up the meta combo piece by piece. And see if my fingers are fast and precise enough.
