Nut Breaker
A while back I did some test with Cage. I found out that of all of Cage's bnb combos f3,3,b3 is best for building meter. I couldn't find any other combo that was safe and also built more meter or did more chip damage. I found this to be a great tool to use when I was low on meter and I was fighting an opponent looking to block and punish me.
To be exact. It does 5 percent damage on chip and it builds one third of a bar of meter.
Because it is safe there is no down side to using this other than players who are good with cross ups.
I find myself using this combo a lot after a nut punch when I'm low on meter. After all there is no penality for using it, and I get to build meter faster than any of his other moves.
I also follow up my frame trap with this combo. IF you do this you technically only burn 1/4 of a bar. That's because you gain meter back from the frame trap and then the b3,3,f3.
I don't know if this has been posted, but I haven't seen any guide talk about the properties of this combo on chip. For me this is how I build meter, and it is the fastest way to build meter with Cage.
