General/Other - Thunder God new Raiden TG combos

I found some new combos for thunder god Raiden recently. The Focus is getting the maximum damage in the corner. Midscreen combos dont need to be improved because they only carry the opponent to the corner where you should deal the most damage.

Note: A good Raiden Player uses the standing reset in the corner but if you play differently; use these maximum damaging combos
Note: Almost every combo consist of a tight thunderball cancel, so you should be already able to perform them.
Note: If you have Improvements or better combos, you can post them as well.
Note: All the following combos are found by myself, i did not search up, wether they are found before.
Note: You can change the electrocute in whatever you want (Grab,Superman....)

I love playing Raiden but I just can't seem to get those run cancels down. However, I can do 31% consistently midsceen and 44% consistently in the corner without them. Both cost 1 bar but with Raiden that bar is easy to get back.
 
His cancel can be tough to nail down as his is a lot different from other characters cancels. Best advice I can give for his cancel is to either wait until u hear the "bzz" when u input the db1 or watch for the exact moment the ball starts to form. Then do the forward forward block to run

his one is slower, you are right, a good way to master it is to get used to the timing

Not to be negative, but I'm pretty sure that all of these have been posted on the forums already. Also, for sake of keeping them all in one place, delete this thread and post these combos in the official bnb thread, provided they haven't been seen posted anyway.
