Eh, not really practical but I may have just found her most damaging combo, or close to it.

J2 > 22 xx MB BF2 > 22 xx MB BF2 > 22 xx MB BF2 > 22 xx MB BF2 > 2b+1 > (11b+1) X 4 > f+12 xx BF3 (58%)

I also think you should denote BnBs. While it's all well and good to list all her paths, if she has easier, more consistent versions of combos that lead to the same damage, you should probably either omit the improper combo or just note which one is the standard.

Or you could just make a section separate from her combos. Usually the point of having a bunch of combo options is just to have the options available to do more damage if you need it in certain situations, not really just a bunch to pick and choose from at will. Here's what I would denote as BnBs:

Lasso

- B113 hit-confirm
B113, 23, B3, J3, B113~DF1 (41% Meterless)
B113~4, (11B1)x4, F12~BF3 (Corner 44%)
- 33 low hit-confirm
33, 23, B3, J3, B113~DF1 (39%)
33, 23~4, (11B1)x4, F12~BF3 (Corner 42%)
- (Close only) B2 overhead hit-confirm
B2, 23, dash, B113~DF1 (29%)
B2, 23~4, (11B1)x4, F12~BF3 (Corner 41%)
- D2 anti-air
D2, 23, B3, J3, B113~DF1 (29%)
D2, 23~4, (11B1)x4, F12~BF3 (Corner 32%)
- 11 8F punisher
11~DB3, B3, J3, B1, B113~DF1 (38%)
- 2 9F punisher
2~DB3, B3, J3, B1, B113~DF1 (40%)

Sword

- B2 low hit-confirm
B2~4~MB BF2, B113, 23, B3, J3, B113~DF1 (44% 1 Meter)
B2~MB BF2, 2B1, (11B1)x4, f12~BF3 (Corner 48% 1 Meter)
- 22 hit-confirm off of J2
22~4~MB BF2, B113, 23, B3, J3, B113~DF1 (47% 1 Meter)
22~MB BF2, 2B1, (11B1)x4, F12 xx BF3 (Corner 50% 1 Meter)
- F3 overhead hit-confirm
F3, J3, F12~MB BF3 (32% 1 Meter)
F3, (2B1)x2, (11B1)x4, F12 xx BF3 (Corner 50%)
- D2 anti-air
D2~4, B113, B113~DF1 (25%)

Obviously most of these follow universal routes, but that's the point of BnBs, trading flash for boring old optimal stuff.
Thanks for the input. I updated the OP, should show BnB now.

this gurl gets 60% meterless in the corner with sword stance, I'm hoping someone already found these braindead combos before I did

JI2, 2b1~bash, b1~bash, 11b1, 11b1, 11b1, 11b1, 11~parry 60% or
JI2, 2b1~bash, b1~bash, 11b1, 11b1, 11b1, 11b1, d3 for 58% hard knockdown

i feel like any of her advanced combos are the hardest combos of any character i've tried so far to actually pull off online. Like in that video @darkmoonlight_va just posted, anytime they do that B3 after any attacks, even after a 23, its so inconsistent online. And the b113, b113 after attacks are so narrow compared to Batman or Superman or anyone else i've tried that it just makes it hard to want to use her online. Nay?

bash; you mean bf3? or bf2?
 
He's prob talking about Amalthea Bash(bf3).
its shield bash.. i mean SS bf3. this combo is sooo hard. the shield juggle is weird and the timing is strict. finally got it to work.

lol you can do it from low b2 and burn meter as a confirm :/ . like:
b2, shield toss MB, 2b1 bf3, b1 bf3, 11b1 (x4), f12 bf3.

but from a low ss b2 i like to do this:
starting low SS b2, LS, tiara toss MB, b113, SS, 11b1, b1, b1, 11b1 (x3), f12 bf3.

EDIT: just to clarify the 2b1 xx bf3. can be done using shortcut. 2b1f3 <
 
press trait after the cancelable normal!.

example:
starting LS b113 xx trait (SS in my notation)

example2:
SS b2, LS, tiara toss MB, b113, SS, 11b1, b1, b1, 11b1 (x3), f12 bf3.
starting with b2 in shield stance. b2 xx trait, then input tiara toss MB, b113 xx trait, .... etc.

just out of curiosity, does anyone have a high damage corner combo out of lasso stance without switching to sword? normally i do 33 23 23 b113 lasso for like 35% but im sure theres better stuff out there

Not sure why you wouldn't confirm into 4 into at the least 11b+1 X 4 into d+3 or f+12 xx ender if you're near the corner; it's more damage than Lasso can possibly do mid-screen or in the corner meterless. Plus, the enemy gets taken for a ride when they're cornered because of her risk vs reward on her damage.

being lazy about sword stance i guess. can you just continually mash 11b1 in the corner or is there a slight delay? (not at home to test)

My BnBs that are I think have the best balance of damage/reliability online:

b113, b113, 23 lassograb. =34%
33, b113, 23 lassograb. =32% [a good one to use after an overhead jump in 2]
11 lasso spin, b113, 23, lassograb. =31% [its really hard to use this one though, hard to hitconfirm it fast enough]
b3, ji2, b113, 23 lassograb. =35% [since you dont use meter too much with WW this is a good one you might use a lot if you try to MB the b3 when you know they are going to attack. at ji3 instead of ji2 is 38% and is good if the connection is really smooth]

For Corner:
33, 23, 23, AmazonUppercut, 23, AmazonUppercut. = 32% [i only hit the last 23 about half the time as the camera is up 30 ft in the air making it hard, but its a pretty easy one, and dont have to deal with the switching stuff and leaves them in the corner ready for more pain]


you can finish all of these with b113 one more time, rather than using 23, to get about 2-3% more damage but its SO much easier and more consistent just using 23. I only use the extra b113 if i've already been playin a bit and know the connection really well.

All these BnBs are super easy to do online, and super consistent, and really good solid damage. IMO much better than the 23, then b3, j2, b113, lasso grab people try to use.
 
I've been using WW a lot lately and I feel like her Super is really bad. By itself it seems slow and I've been hit out of it many times, also most of the other characters can easily counter her super with theirs. The super is okay in combos but damage scaling doesn't help at all.

That's just my rant for the day. I do enjoy playing as her and she will continue to be my alt.
 
What are some good combo starters? All I know is 33, lasso spin and down 3. Also, what are some good pokes. Last question: am I the only one who thinks her tiara throw in the air is bollocks?

look on page 1 of this thread, it has many of them listed.

i think the air tiara (straight and diagonal) moves are good in and of themselves but their recovery his hor ri ble.

b+113, 33, f+3, d+2, Lasso Spin (wake-up attack) and a parry punish 11 are what you need to know for Lasso.

b+2, (J2 >) 22, f+3, and d+2 are her main starters off Sword Stance. Those and anything into b+1, either b+1, 11b+1, or 2b+1, in the corner.

Her Tiara Throw is ass in most match-ups. Pretty sure it's punishable on hit by certain characters, and just about everyone can in your face after one. The fact that it's an overhead means very little, as there's almost no incentive whatsoever to block low when she's not in the opponent's face.

I'm one of the defenders of the tiara because it can save your life in some matchups (like superman) because you stay in the air so long......but at the same time.....you stay in the air SO LONG and it can screw you up. Its not bad, you juts gotta be careful as to how you use it

Well you really shouldn't be throwing out random supers to begin with so this shouldn't matter in the grand scheme of things.

As an aside, I've been having trouble getting the lasso grab to connect after her b113, its a very odd timing because it doesn't feel like a cancel. Any tips? Or is this just one of those things ill get with time? Wanna make sure I'm practicing properly and not just practicing.

Is it after your first b113? If you do a lassgrab after a simple single b113 you are gonna have a bad time, as it will go too early. you need to do it after 'b113,b113,23,lassograb' or '33,b113,b113,lassograb' or 'b113,b113,b113, lassgrab'. If you do that its easy and will always hit with the lassograb.

Yea it was after a b113 b113, I was trying to get the timing of that down before I went for the full combo. Ironically it seems that is the reason I've been struggling with it. Thanks a lot though, ill hit up training mode and iron that out.

Would b113, b113, 23, b3, j3 b113 lasso grab also work? It seems a little too long, maybe one less b113 at the start.
