In practice mode I can land this 8/10 without practicing it, it's not difficult. Try it yourself
I believe you. I haven't been able to try at all since I'm at work :D . I'll definitely start trying to implement this when I get home. I'm sure it's easier than it looks, but visually it seems like it baaaaaarely catches them

It's too soon to get cocky.
I just started learning Sonya within the last few days. She's definitely a lot of fun and love her mixups that keep folks guessing what you're gonna do next.

I defeated some good players with her, especially Quan Chi. I used to fear her and see why; she's super good. I'm definitely gonna be using her a lot more. :)

As a Covert Ops mainer that demolition combo looks very enticing and the double F2 is something new that I haven't labbed for damage options yet, hmm.

The combo looks practical to use in actual fights. For more damage You can also finish it off with B2 leg grab or a standing 4 leg grab but yeah the reload is more important in this case.

You never want to leg grab except to close out rounds.

Regarding double F2, you can replace second F2 with either 213 or 121 after the first F2 depending on your preference. For me, landing 2 F2's is the easiest in this combo situation.

Wow. That looks great. I can really only use CO Sonya at the moment but there are some matchups that I really wish I could use Demo. Your combo looks great but it's really hard to see from the tiny picture. Would it be possible to get the string? Thanks!

I noticed that you run between DF11 and 2134. Is it valid without the run? or do you need to close the gap with run there?

E: I cant test it out atm but just asking :D
Don't have it here but for 2134 to connect you need to run IIRC, you may get a F4 without running (for example after breaking or smth)

Crazy oki setup.

You could replace D2-stun grenade(detonate) with B4-stun grenade(detonate) for 7% less damage and a low option.
You could replace ex-leg grab for only 1% less damage.

If you exclude JIP-Divekick, the first part will do 46% damage instead of 49%.

So you're looking anywhere from 86-97% damage. It just depends which variation of the above that you can pull off.

Thanks :) The 14% D2 or 7% B4 goes completely un-scaled too. (The first hit of an armor break apparently doesn't count towards the follow-up combo, even if it initiates a juggle.) The second combo essentially just starts with stun grenade.

In reality, they could just block both the D2 and grenade (high and mid), so B4-grenade (low) is preferred unless you read an armored wake-up.

Do you break armor consistently vs actual opponents online? Timing the 1 to detonate together with b33 can be tricky because of the delay but I got it down now :) I've not been using the D4 setup though, I should lab some stuff with it

I don't like using B33 to armor break because it's a lot slower than B4. For me, B4-grenade(detonate) is a much easier way to break armor, or D3-grenade(detonate) as a fail-safe.

Oh yea, I also like B4-grenade(detonate) because you can hit B4 meaty while you detonate the stun grenade.

If you can help me think of an overhead option, that would be great, but you can't B1 because that'll detonate the grenade early, and there's not enough time for a NJP2 overhead in this setup. I wonder if I can lessen the opponent's gravity with a F4 (first kick only) cancel to stun grenade instead of 213 in the oki setup part. I'll mess around tomorrow. I need sleep!

Double NJP corner combo. This isn't optimized... just to show that it can be done. I don't know if this is really worth doing.

You can armor break with shock grenade + D4 + ex-grenade drop all in one. Armor breaking with D2 + shock grenade isn't reliable for low wake-ups like Reptile, so I'm probably sticking with D4 or B4.


Can anyone think of an overhead option to armor break? My brain is spent.

The axe that clears the forest
Am I going crazy or are there several mistakes in the OP? Nothing against the guy who took the time to do this, but I'm wondering what the fuck I'm doing wrong here. A couple examples:

b33u2, 12, njp, d2, rc 121, bf4 = 32% (how is this a combo? it states it's universal across all variations.)

B14 MB DB2 DD1- 12% (states this is a demolition combo, yet I don't know what meter burn d,b+2 is supposed to be)

Is there any place I can go to just check out some demolition combos? I know I could be missing something, as I've never played Sonya, but I'm stumped. Obviously, like everyone else on the planet, I want to check her out after seeing what Scar did last night at Kumite.
