Still training...
F23 MB Big Freeze walk forward B3 J2 b23 f32 wall- 384.21
Mentioned in the other thread, but same starter and ender for more damage:
F23xxMB Big Freeze, B3, J3, B232xxwall - 408.28

A hair less damage but with a hard knockdown:
F23xxMB Big Freeze, B3, J3, B23, F233 - 406.85
(Timing on linking the final F233 is tricky though.)

This middle bumps up the damage on the other combos too
12xxMB Big Freeze, B3, J3, B232xxwall - 360.80
21xxMB Big Freeze, B3, J3, B232xxwall - 388.02

Easiest/most consistent conversion off a J3 I found was

J3, F23xxDB3 MB, B3, J2, B232xx ender

Starter xx DB3 MB, step back, level 2 trait, F3, 3xxDB2, 3xxBF1, 3xxBF1, 3xxBF1, B232xxDB2 is around 722 dmg


Edit:

I just noticed that in the corner different starters give you different amounts of time to act after you do the MB ground freeze because of the way it hits. For example f23 gives you more time than just linking something else into freeze. Depending on the starter the trait combos like this need to be ad-lib'd accordingly.

@Zoidberg747 I was trying to do the mid-screen one for a bit last night and couldn't get it. Can you post a video?

Midscreen 1 bar w/ trait (Good way to setup charge trait with more damage)
Starter MB DB3 F4 d2 b23 b3 two dashes b23 b23 b232 charge trait (Can replace b232 with 213 to send them fullscreen)- 404

I want to see what height you are hitting things at to make it work.

I'll try to get a video of it today. It can be a little tricky.

Edit: @RiBBz22


You actually don't have to connect the full b23 in order to get the b3 followup, but its way more consistent to just wait so it all connects. If you don't want to mess with the two dashes you can also just walk up b232 after the b3. It'd be especially good to do that if you could carry them to the corner that way.

I apologize if this is a stupid question but when you guys are saying 'starter' is that just MB db3 or is there more to it?

That's my bad, I should have put these in the post. His starters are any move that can cancel into MB Freeze. So F23 122 etc. (Some of the combos have to be adjusted based on the different strings. I'm updating as I figure it out).

For those struggling with the corner trait combo, I found ending in f23 wall way easier. Only about 15 less damage.

This one isn't too bad to hit. The F23 wall is wonky at the end so I will usually just end in trait charge or something like frost field/death cicle

Is there a reason you use f23 in corner instead of b23.
I find it a little easier to link, but it doesn't really matter if you substitute for b23.

Once I have some time i'll probably post the different combo endings you can do. Honestly I almost always do F3 into b23 b232 icicle for setups. But when going for max damage I just find f23 more comfortable.

OK, it's the opposite for me I find b23 easier. I didn't know if there was a specific reason. Def liking captain cold though.

I don't know if I know how to lab him much more, because it's a bit confusing with the health damage there. I found a 1-bar middle combo. My char is 1lvl. I don't know how to lvl him up (some help to this bruh?).

B232xxEX BF, F3, JI1, 213. (HP: 346)

213 is a KO combo, similar to Sub's F33.

To level up, you can either buy source crystals and use them, play multiverse or player vs player matches. I'll definitely give that combo a go.

So I've seen it notated here and wanted to ask. You guys have 12 xx MB DB3 listed as the start for some combos, but I thought this dropped. I didn't think DB3 or MB DB3 would actually combo off of 12. Have I been mistaken or was this an oversight?

I can't get it to connect either

I think I know why.

The problem is the 12xxEX DB3 (Ice Trap) isn't being connected for some reason, because the 12 are way faster to connect. F23 and 12 have the same DMG, BUT... F23 is way easy and connects just fine.

The 12 CAN connect with DB3, but very rarely, so the Ice Trap isn't working properly to connect with it.

The F23xxEX IT is similar in a way with HF Scorpion's F4xxHF.

I'm trying to work my combo, but it's kind of hard, because I get so confused on this.

Yeah, we need to update the combo lists. 12 and D1 cancel into DB3 and MB DB3, but they do not combo. The opponent can block between the normals and the special.
