Blowin up wake ups with trait in the corner...Harambe Style

Name v.5.0

Iowa's Finest.
This little guide is intended to show you how to blow up, stuff or avoid almost every character's wake ups in the corner when you have trait on using D3 for the hard knock down, corpse hop and jumps. It started with me dicking around with D3 in the corner to see what I could make happen and once I found that I could mess with other character's wake ups I wanted to find a way to combo into these setups. What I found was that without trait, it's pretty hard to control the positioning of the character and keep them tight in the corner. However, with trait on you can combo into it if the opponent is in the corner, or if YOU are in the corner.

The intention is to either confuse their button inputs on wake up resulting in no wake up, or if they wake up correctly...punishing them for it. This is not an end all be all tactic, but more of a way of showing you that you have options. There will always be variables you cant account for. You never really know what your opponent will do.

Below you'll see a guide for the combos and every character's wake up (sorry if I missed one). Some are good where you can full combo punish, some are just one hit stuffs where corpse hop is used for timing purposes. Some there's just no option.

Some of this stuff even works mid screen.

Remeber, your trait has to be on...

Can somebody record a video just to show that out (many get things much easier when recorded on video)?

There was so much to show if you do every characters wake up, so I decided not to make a video because the combos speak for themselves

However, I can probably make one and post it...What specifically would you like to see?
mostly just demos of the combos themselves into the setup, then just an example of the different anti wakeup options. You dont have to do all of them but like one dealing with a foreward advancing wakeup, a upwards wakeup, and a safe wakeup. i would probably do the toughest matchups for grodd like supes, deadshot, etc.

I'd like to see Darkside's wakeup or dr Fate's wakeup

The only morality in a cruel world is chance.
Will ending your combo with F2 work as well? I think it's a hard knockdown
