Combo List - Raiden The Official Raiden Combo Thread - All combos here

[Black Chapters]

So now I'm working on better combos with less extra work, only thing left is the lightning cancel, which I'm not feeling due to the bad run control, and I don't think its worth it anyway.


Mid-Screen:

b32, b14, Thunder Fly=20%
b2, b14, Thunder Fly=24%
b32, b14, Shocker, b32hold, Thunder Fly=35%
b2, b14, Shocker, b32hold, Thunder Fly=39%

Corner:

njp, jk, b2, 214, Shocker, b14, Electrocute=43%
b33, Shocker, b2, b32hold, b14, Electrocute=48%
b2, b2, 214, Shocker, f12b2, f12b2, throw=50%
b32, 213, f12b2, b14, Electrocute=34%
b2, b2, f12b2, b14, Electrocute=39%
njp, jk, b2, b32hold, b14, Electrocute=36%
b33, Shocker, b2, 213, f12b2, b14, Electrocute=52%
njp, jk, b2, b14, Shocker, b32hold, b14, Electrocute=45%
jip, 214, Shocker, b2, b14, Thunder Strike, b14, Electrocute=54%
jip, b2, b2, b14, Shocker, b32hold, b14, Electrocute=52%
jip, b33, Shocker, b2, 213, f12b2, b14, Electrocute=53%

@Chaosphere @TONY-T I wonder if it's possible to do, in the corner: 214, EX df2, b2, b14, LCR, 214, df2... And if it is, if it does more damage than 214, EX df2, b2, 213, b14, df2 (50%).
Edit: I can do: 214, EX df2, b2, b14, LCR, f12b2[4], b14, df2 for 54 %

 

[Barrogh]

b2, LCR...

Sounds interesting.

 

[nugava]

Sounds interesting.

That was a typo. My bad.

 

[Barrogh]

That was a typo. My bad.

NP. That was obvious, just my "never not being a smartass" thing

Thats the highest 1 bar so far. 59%!

 

[TONY-T]

I found a 50% corner combo that starts from a b32, it can also start with a f12b2 and It's not that hard either. Also im working on a "get out of corner combo" and reverse them into the corner lol. I know , sounds weird, but it will be sick when i record it. I've found some new combo tech that ill share within the next couple of days. Fuck i love raiden!

 

[nugava]

Good shit. But landing the uppercut after the LCR in that combo is a mystery for me. (I've adopted your 48 % b32 corner combo anyway.)

 

[Barrogh]

Semi-serious question, guys. Are you feeling Cyraxey enough yet?

 

[delbuster]

got around to recording the important 1 bar combos i know
(full corner carry off overhead, 54% corner overhead, 50% corner b32)

gonna assume that's the corner b32 50% you're talking about tony

 

[Black Chapters]

But why use b32 as a corner starter when b33 gets you more damage?

 

[delbuster]

wasnt aware of b33 doing more damage, but b32 is easier to confirm hit/block for me and just go for full hold string. on block do you run cancel for b33?

 

[Chaosphere]

But why use b32 as a corner starter when b33 gets you more damage?

b32 builds hella meter if they block and is hit confirmable without meter. B33 requires meter to combo off of and you don't have as much time to hit confirm, imo.

Evidently this patch hitting today is going to affect damage scaling in Thunder God.... does anyone know the extent of the change?

No. Not until we go home and hit training mode.

 

[delbuster]

welp, DLing the patch. let's see how much they nerfed raiden damage...

 

[Iz-GOod]

Sounds like shocker will no longer do unscaled damage after b14 in a combo:

"Raiden – Shocker was causing combo damage scaling to be reset."

well
b2 - b2 - b1,4 - df2 EX - b3,2 hold - b1,4 - df2
this combo used to be 51% in corner now it's 42 now (1meter)

b3,2 hold - j2 - b3,2 hold - b1,4 - df2 - from 32 to 22
b2 - b2 - b3,4 hold - b1,4 - df2 - from 39 to 32
b3,3 - df2 EX - b2 - b3,2 hold - b1,4 - df2 - from 48 to 37

 

[Jb879212]

So basically raiden is no longer touching 50% without two bars?

 

[Albo]

My corner bnb's have been hit hard, down to 40-42% from 51% and anything of f12b2, and b32 scales pretty hard even with meter.

TBH damage normalization was what I expected to happen to him, but the dirty whore inside me will miss that 50%+ damage.

 

[Chaosphere]

well
b2 - b2 - b1,4 - df2 EX - b3,2 hold - b1,4 - df2
this combo used to be 51% in corner now it's 42 now (1meter)

b3,2 hold - j2 - b3,2 hold - b1,4 - df2 - from 32 to 22
b2 - b2 - b3,4 hold - b1,4 - df2 - from 39 to 32
b3,3 - df2 EX - b2 - b3,2 hold - b1,4 - df2 - from 48 to 37

Fine with me. He was doing way too much damage lol.

 

[delbuster]

i got 47% corner overhead w/ 1 bar. only a 7% difference from 54%

 

[Low Blow]

What is the combo you were doing for 54% now 47% damage?

 

[delbuster]

old 54 damage combo was in the vid i linked above. new 47 is a diff combo.

old combo:
b2 b2 b14 exDF2 b14 LRC f12b2(hold) b14 DF2 (now does 45, from 54)

new combo:
b2 b2 214 exDF2 b14 LRC f12b2(hold) 21 DF2 (does 47)

low starters across the board got a big nerf, about 10-12. max i can do is 40 from b33 exDF2

 

[TONY-T]

His midscreen 48% now does 40% and if you end it with a superman instead of shocker it still does the same damage. so probably better to end it with superman since it pushes them into the corner.

Gonna test other combos now.
