Into corner and in corner: 21 BF2 D1 12 DF4
Fast startup and decent damage

Timing is pretty strict though

Got the game early. She doesn't seem to have many options for combos (midscreen).

Her F21 can be followed up with a B343 reliably then cancel into BF2/DF4 or just finish the kick string (4). F2 has amazing range but VERY slow and very punishable.

I've only used the default variations from Tournament mode. Will continue exploring, looking forward to this thread on the official release!

From what I hear I hope she does substantially more damage on everything otherwise it makes no fucking sense.

Guys, is it just me or is anyone else having a really hard time with her corner combos? Like, I'm struggling to do any follow up after Deadly Butterfly. It's almost as if she takes longer to recover from that move that hitting the opponent mid-air is strict and inconsistent. They seriously fucked it up.

What a day. What a lovely day.
I’m also struggling with Butterfly in the corner. Surely it wasn’t this hard in the demo. Am I to understand that they seem to have nerfed the one area she was able to combo in?

After deadly butterfly do a d1 and then do the reguler 2,1 2,1,2 combo or whatever ender. Its tight tho

I don't know this for certain but in the beta, deadly butterfly was really smooth in animation. For me in this game it looks like frames are dropping in the animation. Not sure if that is why corner combos are kinda tricky now. If it is not that then the move has been nerfed in some way

In the beta I could basically do any starter in the corner into butterfly and then get a d1 into 21, 212. Now almost nothing combos into any of that. I really don't get what the fuck NRS is doing with her. So fucking sad.

Don't run, you're gonna trip...
I'm also having trouble with Deadly Butterfly, so I'm just sticking to footsies until I push them in the corner and doing f3/f2 shenanigans into full corner combo

The corner combo she used to have off of staff spin exists, but you have to substitute the first 21 with d1. It's harder, and IDK why they did it lol, but oh well.

On the plus side, all her glaive options give her a shadow kick at the very least if they hit you out the air. The f21 combo I've been going with is b343 staff spin. Can't remember damage off the top of the head.

She's basically the same as the beta combo-wise.

So almost everyone is having troubles linking deadly butterfly (except Jwolf appearently). Good to know I’m not getting worse since the BETA
 
The funny thing is it completely works great on the switch LMAO combo works just as it should. But when playing the xbox I couldn't get it to save my life was really frustrated. Also on the switch version some combo starters for liu kang don't launch like they do on xbox?!?! Wtf nrs
 

Quesa

Anyone have tips for connecting 21, B2 after the 214 Krushing Blow in Jwolf's combo? I'm having trouble timing the first juggle, then timing the follow-up B2 fast enough for it to hit. The few times I've gotten to connect, I've only nailed two hits out of B2's three. I'm most a Street Fighter player, so timing juggles like this has been tough for me, since if I do B2 too quickly I get the last hit of 212 instead.

Similarly, is this combo:

F2,1 4 BF1 Amplify B343 DF4

corner only? I've tried doing it midscreen and can't manage to connecting after B3, even when I see Jade do the whole string.

Edit: I was able to to do F2,1 4 BF1 Amplify B2 DF4 for the same damage in the corner. Seems to be easier for me to do, too.

@Geoffmeister experimented with f343. Apparently, doing d1 d1 d1 d1 d1 212 is slightly more damage lmao.

In fact, replacing anything corner related with that nets more damage, and is significantly easier, personally (f21 is the only time using 21 more than once is better).
