[Jeffrey Wolf]

Yup =)

 

[Tanno]

BTW, the Burst is the Frost Bomb with Aura on?

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Midscreen Meterless - You and Opponent Airborne

JK, run, F42~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 19%
- Notes: If the opponent is too far away, perhaps because you connected with a jump back kick, just doing Slide after will net you 14%.

NJP, JIP(2), run, 1, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 23%
- Aura on = 25%
- Notes: Jumping 2 juggles the opponent higher, so, whenever possible, it should be used to make the follow up combo easier.

NJP, JIP(2), run, B12~Ice Ball, B12~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 25%
- Notes: If this combo is too hard, or you’re not close enough to get the B12 to juggle high, use the above instead.

JP(2), run, 1, run 1, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 22%
- Aura on = 25%
- Notes: Omitting each 1 will decrease the damage by 1%.

JP(2), run, B12~Ice Ball, NJP, walk forward, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 25%
- Aura on = 27%
Notes: If this combo is too hard, or you’re not close enough to get the B12 to juggle high, use the above instead.


Midscreen Meterless - You Airborne and Opponent Grounded

JIK, Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 14%
- Notes: None.

JIK, run, F42~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 20%
- Notes: This must be a deep JIK.

JIK, run, F421+3
- No Aura / Aura on = 21%
- Notes: This must be a deep JIK.

JIP + any combo listed in the “Both Grounded” section will generally give you +2 percent damage.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Correct, Burst is meterless, Frost Bomb is Burst when you spend a Bar. I suppose I could call it Ice Burst, instead of Burst, as that is technically its full name.

Also, I was planning to list metered versions as EN or EX, since that seems to be the standard, instead of calling them by their names, which most people don't use. For example, EX Slide, instead of Icy Slide.

Of course, I figure you'll be taking all of these to a new thread to add your graphics, so you can change any names/punctuation you like. But let me know if there is something you want, to cut down on work for you.

 

[Tanno]

Midscreen Meterless - You Airborne and Opponent Grounded

JIK, D1, 1, B12, Slide

JIK, D1, 112

Aura on: JIK, D1, 1, B12, EX Slide, NJP, FIP, F12.

 

[Tanno]

I see. I remember someone calling the Ice Klone Shatter as a combination of the Bomb with the Klone breaking in pieces. How about the IKS?

BTW, let's wait till we have all the combos, and I can do something with the graphics there besides the notations and stuff.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Those are corner combos you're listing, right? Otherwise, I don't see how you're connecting the D1 after the JIK.

As for Burst with Aura on, that's why I've got the with No Aura and Aura on portion for each combo, so you can tell the damage for each type of Burst. If I did two different names for it, then I'd have to list every combo it affects twice, which is what I was doing before, and was getting way to time consuming, plus making the combo list really long.

Speaking of combos, here's the first part of corner.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Corner Meterless - You and Opponent Grounded

Ice Ball, walk/dash/run depending on distance, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 28%
- Notes: For whatever reason, hitting with B2 after jump in punch 2 is much easier than JIP 1, so that is what will be used for these combos. This is also why the Burst for meter is omitted, since that timing requires JIP 1.

11~Ice Ball, back dash, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 29%
- Notes: None.

B33~Ice Ball, back dash, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 31%
- Notes: Unlike midscreen, this hits on the entire cast.

Parry, back dash, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 36%
- Notes: None.

B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 36%
- Notes: None.

B12~Ice Ball, back dash, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 35%
- Notes: None.

B12~Aura, B12~Ice Ball, back dash, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura = 37%
- Notes: This combo is not possible if you already have Aura on. If Aura is on, do the above.


If the above corner combos are too hard to hit (perhaps because you’re playing online, lol), here are some ways to replace the B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide portion:

• B2, B2, D1, B12~Burst. This lowers your damage by 2-4%, unless you have Aura on, in which case the damage will be 1% less or sometimes equal.

• B2, 242, B12~Burst. This lowers your damage by 3-5%, unless you have Aura on, in which case the damage will be 2-3% less.

• B2, 242, 1, 123~Slide. This lowers your damage anywhere from 3-5%.

If you aren’t quite at the corner and don’t have Aura on, in the Ice Ball starter, 11 starter, Parry starter, and B12 starter corner combos above, replace the B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide portion with B12~Aura, 242, run, 242, 123~Slide. These will do the same damage as their midscreen counterparts, but will leave you with Aura on and greater frame advantage.

 

[Tanno]

Yep, they're corner combos linked with JIK.

If you try this combo, you'll understand.

 

[Tanno]

"If the above corner combos are too hard to hit (perhaps because you’re playing online, lol),"

They're not so hard, if you get used with the timing there. In training out of the blue I could do with ease the B2, B2, 242, 123, Slide.

Corner Meterless - You Grounded, Opponent Airborne

Ice Ball, walk/dash/run depending on distance, B2, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 19%
- Aura on = 21%
- Notes: Unlike midscreen, this now works at all jump heights.

D2, F42~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 23%
- Notes: Only works if you are a bit out of the corner and the opponent is high in their jump.

D2, F421+3
- No Aura / Aura on = 24%
- Notes: Only works if you are a bit out of the corner and the opponent is high in their jump.

D4, D1, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 21%
- Aura on = 24%
- Notes: You can use standing 1, instead of D1, for the same damage. Ending with 123~Slide is easier, and only does 1% less than the no Aura version.

D4, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 26%
- Notes: Opponent has to be high in their jump and this will rarely happen with a D4. Better to use the below.

1 or D1 or D3, 242, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 25%
- Aura on = 27%
- Notes: With no Aura, ending in 123~Slide does the same damage.

1 or D1 or D3, B12~Ice Ball, NJP, FJP(2), B12~Burst
- No Aura = 26%
- Aura on = 27%
- Notes: Initial attack must hit opponent’s toes for it to juggle high enough. With no Aura, ending in 123~Slide does the same damage.

1 or D1 or D3, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 31%
- Notes: Initial attack must hit opponent’s toes for it to juggle high enough.

B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 36%
- Notes: If you’re not quite at the corner, you can do B2, run, 242, 1, 123~Slide for 31%.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Oh, yeah. In training room B2 combos are pretty easy for me now. But depending on the connection, it can be tough online. And it sucks to lose that much damage and then likely get punished. It's just a little FYI in case.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

I'll be sure to add those JIK combos when I get to that part.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Corner Meterless - You and Opponent Airborne

NJP, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 31%

JK, 242, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 28%
- Aura on = 30%
- Notes: None.

JK, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 33%
- Notes: None.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

I love how much damage your corner JIK combos do @Tanno. They'll be up soon! And then I'll do a final post with everything Meterless consolidated.

 

[The Hex Man]

this is some good stuff

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Corner Meterless - You Airborne and Opponent Grounded

JIK, D1, 1, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 25%
- Aura on = 28%
- Notes: None.

JIK, D1, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 29%
- Notes: If this combo is too hard, or you can tell that the opponent isn’t juggled high enough by the D1, use the above instead.

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Okay, now that Meterless is finished, I'm going to combine it all and repost. I'm also going to rearrange it so that Midscreen and Corner of the same types are after each other, as I think that just makes more sense.

Everyone, enjoy. Metered will be coming later this week!

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

This combo guide will always list max damage. If there are multiple choices that give equal damage, then preference will be given to the option that is simpler, retains Aura, and/or leads to more plus frames on knockdown (e.g. Slide over Burst). If a particular combo is especially hard to pull off, info concerning an easier option will also be given.

Please note, only combos will be listed here, not single strings cancelled into special attacks. Those will end up being listed in a separate area, which focuses on footsies.


Midscreen Meterless - You and Opponent Grounded

B2, run, F42~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 22%
- Notes: None.

B2, run, F421+3

Ice Ball, Burst (for meter and to get rid of Aura if on), walk/dash/run depending on distance, JIP, B12~Aura, 242, run, B12~Burst
- No Aura / Aura on = 24%
- Notes: If you have Aura on and do not have time to get rid of it, do the above combo instead.

11~Ice Ball, back dash, JIP, 242, run, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 22%
- Aura on = 24%
- Notes: With no Aura, ending in 123~Slide does the same damage.

F4~Ice Ball, walk back slightly, Burst (for meter and to get rid of Aura if on), JIP(1), B12~Aura, 242, run, B12~Burst
- No Aura / Aura on = 28%
- Notes: You are nearly perfectly spaced for the first Burst, so, with practice, it should become consistent.

B33~Ice Ball, Burst (for meter and to get rid of Aura if on), JIP(1), B12~Aura, 242, run, B12~Burst
- No Aura / Aura on = 28%
- Notes: Female only. You are perfectly spaced for the first Burst, so, with practice, there should be no issue doing it.

B12~Ice Ball, walk slightly back, Burst (for meter and to get rid of Aura if on), JIP(1), B12~Aura, 242, run, B12~Burst
- No Aura / Aura on = 31%
- Notes: You are nearly perfectly spaced for the first Burst, so, with practice, it should become consistent.

B12~Aura, B12~Ice Ball, walk slightly back, JIP, 242, run, B12~Burst

Corner Meterless - You and Opponent Grounded

Ice Ball, walk/dash/run depending on distance, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 28%
- Notes: For whatever reason, hitting with B2 after jump in punch 2 is much easier than JIP 1, so that is what will be used for these combos. This is also why the Burst for meter is omitted, since that timing requires JIP 1.

- Notes: None.

12~Ice Ball, back dash, JIP(2), B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 30%

- No Aura = 37%
- Notes: This combo is not possible if you already have Aura on. If Aura is on, do the above.

If the above corner combos are too hard to hit (perhaps because you’re playing online, lol), here are some ways to replace the B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide portion:

• B2, B2, D1, B12~Burst. This lowers your damage by 2-4%, unless you have Aura on, in which case the damage will be 1% less or sometimes equal.

• B2, 242, B12~Burst. This lowers your damage by 3-5%, unless you have Aura on, in which case the damage will be 2-3% less.

• B2, 242, 1, 123~Slide. This lowers your damage anywhere from 3-5%.

If you aren’t quite at the corner and don’t have Aura on, in the Ice Ball starter, 11 starter, Parry starter, and B12 starter corner combos above, replace the B2, B2, 242, 123~Slide portion with B12~Aura, 242, run, 242, 123~Slide. These will do the same damage as their midscreen counterparts, but will leave you with Aura on and greater frame advantage.


Midscreen Meterless - You Grounded, Opponent Airborne

D4, Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 11%
- Notes: None.

Ice Ball, walk/dash/run depending on distance, NJP, JIP(2), run, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 17%
- Aura on = 19%
- Notes: If you don’t have Aura on and you have time, you can Burst for meter after the initial freeze.

Ice Ball, walk/dash/run depending on distance, B2, run, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 19%
- Aura on = 21%
- Notes: Only works if the opponent is high in the air. If you don’t have Aura on and there is time, you can Burst for meter after the initial freeze.

D2, Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 19%
- Notes: Only works if the opponent is high in their jump and you are right below them.

1 or D1 or D3, run, 1, B12~Burst = 20%
- No Aura = 20%
- Aura on = 23%
- Notes: Adding another 1 will do 1% more. Taking a 1 away will do 1% less.

242, run, B12~Ice Ball, NJP, B12~Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 28%
- Notes: This combo is impractical because 2 is not a good anti-air and the follow up is quite hard to hit. Much better to just do the above or below instead.

B2, run, F42~Burst
- No Aura = 23%
- Aura on = 26%
- Notes: Be sure to hit deep with the F42. Otherwise, the Burst won’t connect.

B2, run, 242, Slide
- No Aura / Aura on = 26%
- Notes: The Slide is not a cancel and can be tight to hit.

B2, run, 1, B12~Burst
- No Aura = 26%
- Aura on = 29%
- Notes: Omitting the 1 does 1% less damage.

JIP behaves the same as it does midscreen.

 

[boba_buster]

Btw the ji1 doesn't have enough hit advantage to combo b2 unless done deep. That's why the opponent can block after being hit with the ji1

 

[Jeffrey Wolf]

Ah, that would explain why it's a pain. Thanks.

 

[boba_buster]

Yea if your wanting to go into a b2 you have to use ji2 but even then they can armor you after the ji2 on block

 

[Ibuprofanity]

Hey guys I'm new to being a member of tym but I've been reading this thread for weeks and I think It's cool how hard you guys are working to redo all of this.

 

[Tanno]

Speaking about JI2> B2, they can be connected only if the JIP is very closely linked with B2 on the way to the ground. You'll need to make it an Overhead. I have done it many times, so I know.

@Ibuprofanity , we're working to redo everything, because some dudes didn't lab Sub Zero properly. The most labbing was on Grandmaster. We're trying in ours power to surface what Unbreakable Sub Zero can do, if used properly. We even found his AWP (Anti-Wakeup Parry). Once I complete this video a month later, you'll understand. What you see in the Youtube relating MKX are some videos explaining the very easy combos, so easy that if the casuals were to train with them, they could do them. We just surfaced the hardest combos, because they have the hardest links, like the followings:

B12~Aura> B12~Iceball...
B2> B2> 242>123> Slide
NJP> FJP> FJP> 1> 112

And on and on.

You can IA JI2, B2. It doesn't have to be done on falling momentum. It's part of my alternate corner combo instead of JI1, 242.
