@Student & @Triplswing thanks guys. I'm enjoying every bit of this character

Hellfire corner from B3 FBC.

b3 - fbc - 214 aura - 123 - tele - RC - 214 - sp - ji2 - f4 - tele = 37%

Keeps them in the corner as well as B3 FBC is hit confirmable which makes this pretty great, if you go in for a throw that's 49% for no meter. Very few characters that can do that kind of damage not only without meter, but off of something that's a main tool of the character.

uploaded some combos just now, wanted to find something ridiculos with scorpion.
Managed to find 53% corner with 3bar (61% using EX-hellfire), and 51% midscreen (59% using EX-hellfire)
also some swag combos included.

I know vortex is the ultimate option, but i wanted to see the biggest numbers possible.

Scary combos & execution, wish I could hit 214 off of a FA, just never works

 

[JTB123]

Was experimneting with maximum punishment off B3 midscreen with Scorpion and got some very good results. I really feel these should be his go to B3 BnB's, even if you're late you can confirm the string into pressure.

 

[Triplswing]

I just found a mini-breakthrough. 2 flame auras meterless combo.

f4xxFA, 21xxFBRC, b2, run, 214xxTP, 21xxSpear, fjp, f4xxFA, 4xxTP

36%.

Harder than it sounds because b2 is not very friendly with the 214 string. You'll see what I mean if you try it.

As long as it's not hurtbox specific and works on every character I'm willing to give it a go.

Right now I'm only practicing it in segments though, would substituting 21xxFBRC for B1xxFBRC still give enough time to link a 2nd flame aura?

Just one question, do we know for sure that this works against everyone from a max range B3? I'm testing and I keep doubting myself as to whether or not I'm doing it from max range lol.

Nope. Even this is barely enough.

 

[STRYKIE]

Nope. Even this is barely enough.

Fuck. Getting the B2 itself to true combo is the hardest part for me, believe it or not.

I personally found the juggling to be the hard part.

I'm not sure how consistent it is across the roster, but if you feel like it's not working just know that I did it on Shinnok. I think he's like normal size right?

 

[JTB123]

At max range B3 you're better off using B1 instead of 21 due to B1 having more horizontal range, only downside is that because it's slower than 21 it's a much harder link as your FBC has to be absolutely perfect.

I just tested it on all females and it worked with B12 at max range, might be best to go for B12 all the time, you don't lose any damage and there is no danger of it whiffing.

That combo is sick man, I've been trying to think of a way of getting 2 auras without a bar for ages!

It does seem somewhat incosistent against the females though, they have the smallest jugglying hit boxes and sometimes 21 will connect after the 214-tele and sometimes not. On males and bigs it seems fine though.

When I'm trying out new juggles Cassie is always my go to training dummy. From what I know she has the smallest hurtbox in the game. It works for sure, it's just really counter-intuitive lol.

 

[JTB123]

For the lulz You can do 7 in the corner

What is the most optimal combo to do after a raw ex tele? I seem to drop everything i try do

 

[Triplswing]

EXTP, run, 214xxTP, b12xxSpear, fjp, f4xxFA, s4xxTP. Can be tricky if there is lag, but otherwise consistent across all characters.

 

[Hades]

Has anyone else found they can no longer land 2,1,4 xx TP, 2,1,4 xx ex tele?

 

[JDE]

Yup. You have to get more familiar with 214 tele > 123 Ex tele, that route, now. 114 Ex tele will work too, but the damage scales.

 

[Triplswing]

One nerf to a single string and suddenly all the information on this board is wrong. Damn.

Yep, I had this happen with Cassie last month so I am used to having all my stuff change. Unfortunately now it has happened to another character I play lul. NRS has it out for me.

Taking 214 tele into 214 Ex tele out was dumb, not gonna lie. I understood the fireball canceling nerf, but this was overkill. It doesn't hurt him, though but it just feels awkward using 123 Ex tele more often or 21 EX Tele (for right now).

 

[itsmeMOB]

I can barely 214xxTP21 into some of my combos now because of this nerf wtf?

 

[itsmeMOB]

Actually nevermind, I have to adjust my timing with it now. This is shitty though, really shitty.

Hellfire only:

214 xxtelexx 21 xxExtelexx RC 21 xxspearxx Ji2 F4 xxFAxx 21 xxtelexx 37%
214 xxtelexx 123 xxExtelexx RC 21 xxSpearxx Ji2 F4 xxFAxx 21 xxtelexx 40% but 39 depending on how close you finish the combo with the FA.

You'll have to let 123 drop (delay) a little but then it's easier to link once you get used to it.

Can you please try and see how much dmg % is the following combo: ji1 214 xxtelexx 123 xxExtelexx RC21 xxspearxx ji1 21fbc21 xxFAxx

The execution of FBRC 21 is hard to do, but I'm still trying it.
