scorpion's best AA combos

[YOMI MITYEAP]

i personally love using scorps standing 2 and standing 1 and njp to get big AA combos in return, here are some that do at least 30 percent dmg:
* standing 2, standing 11, tele, standing 11 spear, jip, f21 tele (32 percent)
*standing 1, stadning 11, tele, standing 11 spear, jip, f21 tele (32 percent)
*standing 3, ex tele, tele, standing 11, spear, jip, f21 tele (38 percent)
* njp, back 2, jik, tele, standing 111, spear, jip, f21 tele (38 percent)

I mainly use and NJP variations. A couple from + I use as well:

+, dash xx Teleport, dash xx Spear, Vortex
+, (dash) + xx Spear, Vortex

The first one only works if you AA up close. Second one is the variation Slips used throughout Frosty Faustings, which is reliable and easy to do on reaction mid poke if the opponent tries to jump out.

 

[Slips]

standing 1, b+2, jk tp, 111 spear should really be the only anti-air combo you need. 37% + vortex.

 

[GrandMasterson]

Slips and Bildslash covered just about everything.

I've found myself using sweep sometimes if I feel like I don't have enough time to do anything else. It's quick and lowers Scorp's hitbox a lot. I've even managed to throw out a B2 into jumpkick teleport etc if I read their jump in.

Oh, and if you knock them out of the air with a jump in punch, you can dash in with 3, teleport, 11 spear.

AA1, Jk Teleport, 1, 11~spear, jip, f21~teleport, hell fire

AA1, Jk Teleport, 1, 11~spear, jip, f21~teleport, hell fire

Hellfire? maybeok if you read they will jump. But if your going for 'safe' id end in either 11~ takedown 4~takedown or f4~ takedown. Etc. or end in 1, throw, hellfire(situational)

Snip

Slips i was gonna submit that one, then read your post and remembered i got the 1 b+2 AA from the podcast so, in conclusion, i have nothing to add

 

[quandaghost]

I like using b2 and d1. they are the most consistent for me.

 

[Saint]

Because d1 and 3 decrease the size of your hitbox and are faster than his other options they leave you more time to react so I tend to use those

MITDJT Since you use the 2 for AA, you'll probably like the 2, Dash 3~Teleport, Dash 111~Spear variation more than 2, Dash 11~Teleport, Dash 11~Spear.

This lets you not only do the single 3 which scales better than the first 11, but also lets you do the full 111~Spear.

I play it safe with d1 and 3

Its that bad ending a combo with the hellfire?

If scorp hit confirms the f21~teleport he gets a free hellfire, i'm i right?

Yep, unfortunately hellfire got no advantage

He does, But you are better off going for the safe jump into vortex pressure since the hell fire more or less resets the situation at that range.

 

[EGP Wonder_Chef]

I do:

d1 xx teleport > jump kick xx teleport > d1 xx Spear > Jump Punch, F21 xx Teleport (33% into vortex)

or

B2 > jump kick xx teleport > jump kick xx teleport > d1 xx Spear > Jump Punch, F21 xx Teleport (41% into vortex)

I see, more chip in pressure ^^

True; a scaled hellfire that does like 2% damage.
Your safe blockstring after the vortex ender does 7% damage anyway, so you're basically guaranteed the real hellfire damage anyway.

I see, cool stuff.
