BLUE BEETLE OPTIMAL COMBOS

Nice combos!

One question - what enders should Beetle use when he needs to stay in (e.g., vs deadshot). Ending in shield bash seems to set up his zoning well but doesn't seem great in terms of keeping the pressure on.

shield bash ender can lead to pressure if they dont tech roll.
if you want to keep the pressure on you're goign have to drop some damage and do either f2 or sweep or go in trait and do 21 1+3 ender or bf3 ex ender

Is it just me or is F23, F3 inconsistent? I seem to be doing it with the same timing every time, but sometimes it hits and sometimes it doesn't. Is this distance, character or trait on/off dependent?

you have to do it really early like pretty much after u hit f23 i dont have problems with it anymore

That's what I tried initially but it seemed finnicky still. I had better luck holding forward for a few frames then hitting it, like a micro-step? I thought the issue might be range. Who knows

I just wish he had more meterless / 1 bar damage. He's getting sub 500 for 2 bars when most are getting 400+ easy with 1 bar

I let blub eetle (intentional spelling) walk just a few steps (half a half a second) before hitting f3. This has helped me a lot. I'm surprised the pro-bb said to do the opposite.

Damn this char not only unique, weird but has a lot of potential if you put time into him.

Yeah I've since figured this out as well. But I reserve F3 / B3 combos for trait, and when I'm not in trait I almost always use 1 bar for the 400 damage bnb
