After none. It's not a thing sadly.

Really? I feel like it should haha explains why I can't land it then. Much appreciated!
Yeah haha, anytime!
Sometimes I'll do this for easy good damage, and to land very close to my opponent, or switch sides.
the second dive becomes a hard knockdown and you get a super ambiguous crossup if you jump-in 1 right after it.
Thx. Question answered.
Yeah, this! Also a very easy way to stuff GL's and some other hard to stuff wake-ups is ending with 12 1+3 into dash forward into any string. I use that when I don't wanna switch sides.
I just do it when I think it's enough to kill since I get another special's worth of meter, though it sucks when I'm wrong and it doesn't kill lol
The wakeup/crossover options make sense to keep it in mind. Doing j1-112-cmd grab does more damage and if you have meter, you can mb cmd grab and go for b3 extension if you need a little extra to kill.
That's how you play against Bane.
I feel your pain. D2 works in some scenarios but not all. I think her balance is built around her damage with trait but you see other characters put up comparable #s safer and easier. She's my favorite and I'm not dropping her but I am picking up catwoman to handle lopsided matchups.
d3 is a decent punish; it sets up your oki game and does a nice little chunk of damage. Otherwise, 112~db2. If you have enough meter, 112~bounce.cancel-j3~112~dbf1 does, I believe, over 500 damage. If you notice the opponent crouching after getting blocked, start punishing with db1.mb for a good 400+ damage. Cheetah's not as braindead as the top tier in this game; you've got to be a little more creative, but you're rewarded well for your creativity (unless you're against Aquaman, Batman, or Scarecrow, in which case fuck it, put down your controller).
I do alot of these already. Against small frame characters 112 is terrible with 2 high starters is all I am sayin. What I was saying earlier... Yeah it is a hard knockdown for d3.. But so many characters have wakeup that can beat a well time f3. Canary wakeup hand spring can be caught if they are going away from you, but if you do it and she does a front hand spring. It goes through you and canary is behind. Than you are playing the neutral again all with hop in hop out d3. To have the same read every time. Not saying she should always have a free mixup on knockdown. That would be broken. She needs something to compensate her God awful neutral.
You asked for punishes; hit-level doesn't matter for punishes. If they are more than -7 and within your standing 1 range, they can't crouch it.
Your right... 112 into db2 or I suppose against large frame characters you can short leap pounce into more continual mixup off the punish, which is honestly what I will do the most. Doesn't work with small frame characters though. You can often catch people walking back with a pretty nice crossup ji1 with the short leap.
Wtf? How are these NOT her gear pieces? Oh my...Found some Cheetah gear concept art. Personally I think these look way better than most of her in game gear :-/
I believe she is great, just the current top tier are inexcusably good. In any other game she would be amazing; she just can't compete with the likes of Aquaman, Batman, Superman, and Scarecrow. I think she handles Adam and Atro rather well, though.
I actually think she does decently well against aquaman. Supes and Batman (especially batman) are the ones who give me the most trouble
Please post some footage of you vs a skilled Aquaman. His trait destroys her since her strings don't launch, his d2 shits on all of her options, TR wakeup ruins her f3 oki game, and you better be ready to eat d1-TR after d1-TR.
