Not really familiar with combo notation or Injustice as a game on a deep level, but I did play IGAU casually and mained Cyborg. This is what I was able to come up with so far (learning all of the MK9 Cyrax bomb trap resets a few years ago paid off). Slightly situational, but I've already done these a couple times in online matches. Feel free to correct me on what the generally accepted combo notation is. I briefly tried looking around for it but couldn't find.

Combo: Two Target Acquireds + Drone

Combo Notation:
-b+2,3,1 xx d,d+3 (Combo setup. 218 damage)
-f+4 ... walk forward slightly ... d+2 xx d,d+3 ... forward jump xx d,b+1 ... walk forward slightly ... b+3 ... forward jump+2 ... b+1,2,3 xx d,d+3 (The last Target Acquired doesn't combo, but is added to continue pressure. 439 damage)



-----------------------------------------------------------


Combo: Two Target Acquireds + Drone + Roll Reset

Combo Notation:
-forward jump+2 xx b+2,3,1 xx d,d+3 (Combo setup. 301 damage)
-f+4 ... d,d+3 ... forward jump+4 ... b+3 ... forward jump+2 ... b+1,2,3 xx d,d+3 (519 damage)
-f,f ... f,f~MB (opposite side) ... b+3 ... forward jump+2 .. b+1,2,3 xx d,d+3 (The last Target Acquired doesn't combo, but is added to continue pressure. 403 damage)


-----------------------------------------------------------


EDIT: Adding another combo.

Combo: Full Screen Shenanigans

Combo Notation:
f+4 ... d,d+3~f ... forward jump xx b,f+1 ... f,f~MB ... b+3 ... forward jump+2 ... b+1,2,3 xx d,d+3 (The last Target Acquired is to keep the pressure. 435 damage)



-------------------------------------------------------------



EDIT: Adding more combos.

Combo: Cyborg Combo with MB Roll Swag
Credit goes to @Protagonist_1 for pointing out the Nova Blaster into MB roll cancel.

Combo Notation:
-forward jump+2 xx b+2,3,1 xx d,d+3 (Combo setup. 272 damage)
-f+4 ... walk forward slightly ... d+2 xx b,f+1 xx f,f+MB ... b+3 ... forward jump+2 ... b+1,2,3 xx d,d+3 (
348 damage)



-------------------------------------------------------------



Combo: Drone Follow and MB Wall Bounce

Combo Notation:
- b+2,3,1 xx d,d+3 (Combo setup. 197 damage)
-f+4 ... forward jump+1 ... b+1,2 xx b,b+3 ... (opponent lands on bomb) ... b+1,2,3 xx d,d+3 (460 damage)


------------------------------------------------------------



Combo: Drone and Target Acquireds with Uppercut Variation

Combo Notation:
-forward jump+2 xx b+2,3,1 xx d,d+3 (Combo setup. 272 damage)
-f+4 ... d,d+3 ... d,b+2 ... b+3 ... forward jump+2 ... b+1,2,3 xx d,d+3 (476 damage)

Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. Check my original post at the top. I added more combos. I'm trying to centralize them so it's easier for people to find, but if the forum's guidelines or the general consensus is to not do that, then please let me know.

Nothing major but a nice little corner combo is b123xxdb1 (mb), 11, 113xxd uf. Not big damage, but consistant and ends in a grapple crossup loop.

Another is b231xxdb2 (mb) d2 113xxd uf. Or instead of 113 end with 3xxdb2 for damage.

Midscreen 1 bar: 3xxdb2 (mb) f2xxdb2. 2 bar: 3xxdbmb (bounce cancel) jf2 jf2 3xxdb2.

TA is guaranteed from a lot of strings as long as the opponent is in a juggle. That isn't the issue, it's the TA+trait setup though. It's doing trait after TA and believing the opponent will sit there long enough to get hit by TA AND watch you send out trait. Your opponent better be suffering from shock therapy if they let all that time pass by.

Seriously, I would avoid doing TA then doing trait unless the opponent has literally shown you're they're backing away to give you time to send it out. Any character with a forward moving wake up attack, air mobility, air special will blow you up doing that.
Now cancelling a combo to setup trait then TA on the other hand...

Yes, none of these combos are fully guaranteed. I mainly made them to give people ideas.

However, it's been my experience (at least playing with people around my skill level) that if you do this combo, it sometimes hits. No, no one just usually sits there and waits for the TA to connect, but what has happened in the times that I've landed these is that people get up, panic, dash back, and either jump back onto the TA or dash forward back onto it.

The trick is to confuse your opponent as to what you're going to do after the b+2,3,1 xx TA. My first go-to is diagonal nova blaster, because people tend to jump while they're waking up to avoid the TA. So after getting smacked with that a few times, they stop jumping. Some people (just link Injustice 1) will try to dash forward after waking up to avoid the TA and hit you. I usually will do nova blaster and if they get hit early enough, the TA connects and I get my Injustice 1 combo.

After enough conditioning, your opponent just doesn't know what you'll do after landing the combo setup. Sometimes they'll block all of this, but sometimes they get hit with the TA. If you've done enough conditioning, and you're going for this combo, you'll knock them down, throw out the TA, commit to throwing down the roomba drone, and take it from there.

Just trying to provide us with options, guys. This character seems pretty limited compared to the rest of the cast. Anything we can land is better than nothing.

Also, the main combos in these videos don't need the b+2,3,1. I've landed this a couple times after zoning someone by harassing them with full screen TAs and nova blasters, and then laying down a mid screen TA and committing to a forward roomba drone. They'll run into the TA, then bounce on the roomba drone, and you can take it from there.

Booyah!
If in the corner, you can uppercut to Sonic Disrupter and continue it with another followup. I prefer using another d2 since its easy to hit and time.

@Protagonist_1 - That's really good. I feel like that has a lot of potential. Might go into practice mode and play around with it for a bit. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks man, at my local I had a situation were I could have did this (I just didn't NB cancel the d2 :(). Even if they block, you can still get some decent chip off it. You can also cancel it off of d1, f2, and d2 also.

I think that your setup also opens up a lot of mind games. If I can work this into my muscle memory soon, I'd probably run up and when the drone was about to connect, throw out 1,1,2. The 2 is an overhead, and then I can start mixing them up with 11 xx techno tackle when they stand up. Against Cyborg, your opponent doesn't seem to have much of an incentive to not block low at all times (his f+3 is so telegraphed). But if you start hitting them with 1,1,2 / 1,1 xx techno tackle mixups, you can start breaking them down. It'll be even more pressure-oriented with the drone flying in.

Most damaging b3 and f3 combos I have found:
  • b3 j3 j2 12b2xxPF
  • b3 j3 j2 113xxSD (sacrifices some damage to send opponent full screen)
  • f3 j3 113xxPF
I found the b3 combo to be very easy to land on Blue Beetle, but very tough to land on Superman :/ Hope you guys can help me figure out why
