Question Which b21f2 combo do you use?

[Vagrant]

This is a trivial question because the frequency I get a garunteed b21f2 against a decent player is very slim.

Morty and Foxy have two different combos out of this string in their guides.

Mortys: b21f2 njp dash kiss dk21cw b21 ms f1 LG
Foxys: b21f2 njp dash kiss dk21cw b21f2 112 (f1 cw)

They both deal around the same damage.

Morty ends with LG because you can dash afterwards to reverse your opponents wake up inputs.
Foxys ends with the traditional standing reset which obviously eliminates your oponents wake up oppurtunity and provides additional chip/ meter. It's also slightly more difficult but can be mastered with practice.


Which one do you guys prefer to use?


I'm kind of at a crossroads on this one.

I fucked that thread title up pretty gloriously.....

i do foxy's. morty's is much easier but foxy's ends with a reset into more pressure, which is why i use his.

i only use this if i connect with a jip tho. i don't even think about this combo for punishes.

I use the one ending in reset. It gives alot more options and takes away the risk of getting hit with a wake up if I guess my wake up pressure wrong

The string is a really good whiff punisher as well. Not many Sonyas abuse it as a whiff punisher

I had never even thought of it tbh. But I only switched to her like a month ago. If I see a whiffed string i usually just iadk. I'll expiriment with using b21f2 after work.

I end in the reset. That allows you to use already established mind games off of ms. There is nothing more frustrating when fighting Sonya than getting hit by a 50 percent combo just to be hit by something like a fwd4 right after.

I think b2 is 17f but your right dive kick should be the whiff punisher. B2 too slow and no range. The b2 bnbs are good for punishing ermac lift, KL spin, kabal dash etc

Always use the standing reset as the combo ender. There is not really a reason to use any others, in my opinion.

 

[bloodsport]

i use foxy's

B21f2 njp kiss Dk 21 cw b21f2 112 ms f1 follow up
Does over 50%

 

[MashPotatoTower]

The combo travels too far on most stages for the leg grab ender to be beneficial IMO

 

[Death]

B21f2 njp kiss Dk 21 cw b21f2 112 ms f1 follow up
Does over 50%

Nah does 45%

 

[HGTV Soapboxfan]

Nah does 45%

I think he is adding chip which would be 51 ending with fwd1cw

 

[MashPotatoTower]

Nah does 45%

Plus the free chip tho? It is part of the combo

I use foxy's since resets are good and I have a really hard time connecting with the Leg Grab.

I'm not understanding why people say that B2 has no range. When I experimented with it, B2 lunges Sonya forward Sweep/D4 distance.

My silly one is Back 1, 2, forward 2, back 1, 2, forward 2, jump kick, air/leg grab. It looks so cool, but not really useful lol.

I've used back 2 as a whiff punisher before recently, it's not bad at all.
