I start mashing dash after second hit in b124 then you cancel dash with f4 asap. If you cancel dash in time 333 is rly easy

I don't know if it has been found yet, I haven't seen it in this thread


b123 fdashxx33 fdashxx134 bf2 = 351.65 That is the best damage meterless midscreen i've seen so far
The execution is tight but after a few lab sessions it should be okay, and I picked Skarlet to show it works on females.
You can use bf4 at the end to keep to keep the opponent in the corner (and the combo has a great corner carry)

If you use b123 fdash 33 fdashxx134 bf4 = 325.12

If you use the MB version : b123 fdashxx33 fdashxx134 bf2 MB = 371.56 + greater corner carry

EDIT : Reupload of the gif because I just realised the clip wasn't trimmed correctly

Doesn't b123, f4, 134-bf2 does more dmg meterless?

And also I think b123, fdash f4, 333-db2AMP, 33 any ender gets almost to 40%

b123 f4 134 bf2 does ~33%, here it's 35%.

And of course it does more damage with the db2 meter burned, but here I'm talking about meterless midscreen combos.

Not sure if it's on here yet but I accidentally stumbled into a B123, 33, db2AMP, 333bf2AMP (17 hit 369.11 dmg) combo while warming up but you'll need full bars. Surprisingly it's relatively forgiving on the input and I've drank a socially unacceptable amount of whiskey.

How many of you guys are able to do her Ring dash cancels into B123 consistently? I'm struggling with this more than I thought I would and after watching Rewind do this TWICE in a row in the same combo at CB, my desire to finally nail this down just went through the ceiling.

I can do the dash cancels into 134 consistently and I NEVER drop it, but B123 feels like playing the lottery. The odds of dropping the combo is much bigger than landing it. I know it's a matter of practice and TIMING, but there's some sort of sweet spot about the speed with which you do those inputs that I can't seem to execute every single time. If I do it too slowly, it doesn't connect and if I do it too quickly, I get 134 instead of B123. lul

Any tips? :(

It's quite hard to rock the dpad that fast without getting unwanted inputs. Rewind probably uses this mod for his dpad - https://battlebeavercustoms.com/products/ps4-d-buttons

definitely not hard enough to warrant a d-pad change. I hold MB while connecting the b1 just to have one less thing to think about. for me, it's consistent on p1 side and about 7/10 on p2 side right now. also, no need to rock the d-pad, better to lift thumb slightly (thank you tekken KBD)

I’m having a lot of trouble with the timing of b123 dc f4 333 xx db2 I just can’t get it to come out consistently. If I do the dash cancel, sometimes she moves too far forward and the 333 won’t connect after the f4. I can get b123 f4 to connect if I hold forward after inputting b123. The issue is then getting 333 to connect properly. Sometimes it connects, sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes it’ll connect but cancelling into db2 won’t connect. I’ve pulled off the combo occasionally but it’s not consistent. Any advice on timing would be appreciated.

The timing for 333 directly connects to the timing of f4. I had this issue as well. Hitting f4 too late means not landing 333 xx db2. What you have to do is buffer the dash during b134. So basically time it where you start inputting forward as you are connecting the last hit of b134 so the 2nd forward for the dash move is input just as the string visual ends. Buffering will force the character to dash immediately, as soon as physically possible. Then you don't even wait for the dash to complete. You hit f4 as soon as the dash animation starts making a microdash.

For online reliability, you can also just use 33 instead of 333. It is less damage but seems the db2 comes out more reliably as the timing is less strict. This is what I do online when there is lag or choppiness or if I feel I hit f4 too late.

Alternatively, if you want an easier combo that is MUCH easier to land online with the current lag, just do b134 dash f4 134 xx bf2 amp. You still have to dash but this version is much more forgiving.

I've settled on b1,2,3 f2,1 , db2 amp, 33, bf2. I find it safer especially if the opponent decides to break the combo after b,123, , it doesn't leave me open for a major punish with the missed db2.

This is what I've got so far with combos after the patch for Ring Master:

Midscreen Meterless:
b123 dash 33 f4 1+2 (25%)
b123 dash 33 f4 1+2 22222 (29%)
b123 f4 134~bf2 (33%)
b123 f4 134~bf4 (30%)
b123 dash 33 dash 134~bf2 (35%)
b123 dash 33 dash 134~bf4 (32%)

Midscreen Metered:
b123 f4 333~EX db2 (33%)
b123 f4 134~EX bf2 (35%)
b123 f4 134~EX bf4 (34%)
b123 dash 33 dash 134~EX bf2 (37%)
b123 dash 33 dash 134~EX bf4 (36%)

Corner Meterless:
b123 3 3 f4 1+2 (27%)
b123 3 3 f4 1+2 22222 (31%)
b123 3 3 3 f4 1+2 (30%)
b123 3 3 3 f4 1+2 22222 (34%)
b123 3 33 333d4 (33%)
b123 3 33 134~db2 (36%)
b123 3 3 3 134~db2 (37%)

Corner Metered:
b123 3 33 134~EX db2 (39%)
b123 3 3 3 134~EX db2 (41%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 3 f4 1+2 (34%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 3 f4 1+2 22222 (37%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 33 333d4 (39%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 33 134~db2 (41%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 3 3 134~db2 (42%)

2 bars:
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 33 134~EX db2 (43%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 3 3 134~EX db2 (44%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 33 333d4 (44%)
b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b14~EX bf1 canceled dash b123 3 33 134~db2 (45%)

The EX db2 is +29 on hit so it does give you some good oki and a little bit more damage. Definitely better to use in the corner for an ender if needed. Overall it seems like going meterless is the way to go unless you really need to kill your opponent, better off saving it for EX rings. I think Sonya's damage midscreen and in the corner is still really good, especially meterless.

I don't think the dash is necessary after B123 F4 to connect 134 midscreen or maybe it's character specific ?
also in the corner doing B14 ring cancel twice into B123 3 33 333d4 is still the most damage she can get.
really sad how they dumbed down her combos instead of decreasing the damage of the strings or increasing scaling..

I usually do the dash to be a little closer to be on the safe side but yeah I think you can connect it from that range. Good to know, and yeah I agree. I figured there was just going to be more damage scaling.

I updated the post-patch combo list above with the more optimal midscreen and corner combos. Midscreen you can do dash 33 dash 134~special after the b123. You get about 2% more damage. In the corner you can do 3 standing 3's in a row rather than 3 3 or 3 33 for about 1-2% more. Credit goes to this video here:
(and @ShepherdOfFire as it looks like he found the midscreen combos).

After the ring cancel I can connect 134 easily in the corner but the B123 after the ring cancel seems really tight. How do u guys do that? Any tips?

I have the same issue. I'm getting the 134 pretty consistently so I'm just gonna stick with it.

It's muscle memory, I couldn't do it consistantly either first but after a few training sessions doing just that for a week or so I do it 95% of the time now.
As for a tips i'd say
  • try just cancelling at first then add the b1 when you get the dash cancel to come out just right.
  • you could also just practice doing b1 after a dash if that's what you have issue with.
  • input ff when you see the ring hit and immediatly follow by b1. (I think I saw that advice here or on discord, it helped me a lot)
hope this help!
