Info and Tactics

Partner Considerations

3000 Cost

SF will almost always be playing the back role due to its bottom-tier health, unimpressive melee, and plethora of ranged armaments

2500 Cost

Again, depending on your partner, SF may often find itself playing a rear support role here. At 600 HP SF has lower health than even some 2500 costs suits, which should certainly be the first to fall if you are partnered with one. This comp is basically high risk/high performance, but allows just a little more breathing room in a match than when partnered with a 3k.

• 2.5k's with equivalent health to SF: Banshee, Freedom, Quebely, Cherudim, GP03S. Of these Banshee, Freedom, and GP03S have lower red lock ranges than you and so may at times play more forward than you, but you have better tools for pressing forward (excepting Banshee's NT-D). Quebely and Cherduim will both play behind you with their longer range and ranged toolkits.
• 2.5k's with less health than SF: X1 (580, though with ABC mantle it has more), Gottratan (580).
• Infinite Justice: Original series partner combo.

1000 Cost

Bad affinity. SF is not equipped to prevent enemies from bullying a 1k, especially not without coming under significant risk himself.

Combos

means this combo is taken from the JP wiki, and is not totally verified yet.

Normal Combos

Input	Damage	%Boost	Notes
[A] BR Starter
BR>>BR>>BR	158		Zunda
BR>>BR→CS	180		Empowered Zunda
BR→CS	166		Second Impact
BR→5AC (shooting)	137		Forced Down Can be used to Down while conserving BR ammo 5AC shooting alone does 128 with Forced Down though, so only barely extends the damage
BR(hold A)>>6B~8B>CS	200		You can either back-step to allow CS to finish charging, or fire the second that it does while you are at the apex of the issen distance
BR(hold A)>>BD8B→BC~B(1hit)→CS	217	60%	Note that the BC~B issen grinds, so the 1hit means release CS basically as soon as it connects

• It's wasteful to try to intentionally start a combo with AC, but if you happen to have them on hand here are some options:

Input	Damage	% Boost	Notes
[5AC] Starter
(5AC) 5BBB~8B>AC	225		Using Sub will do 242

• As a whole, 5BB~8B and 5BBB will set-up basically the same amount of damage in a combo, with 5BB~8B having better cut resistance
• Doing 5BBB~8B versus 5BB~8B in general seems to add only ~10 damage (more or less) to a combo, so it's up to you if you think you have time for it or not.
• Unfortunately, the ~8B issen launches the opponent in such a way that it forces you to either step into CS, or just wait until you have floated to the apex of the issen's distance to release it. Because stepping is faster and gives you at least some cut resistance, step canceling will be used in the combos below. This will of course be reflected in the %Boost columns. If you wait to do the cancel route, less boost will be consumed.

Input	Damage	%Boost	Notes
5B Starter
5BB>>BD8B→CS	233	33%	Efficient and good cut resistance Use a side BD for best consistency →BC can be added after the BD8B to cut tracking, but increases boost consumption
5BB>>BD8B→BC~B(?hit)→CS	236	60%	Good movement and damage, but not as boost- or time-efficient as above
5BBB>5BB~8B>CS	230	65%	Using the issen at the beginning will force Down on second issen before you can CS
5BBB→BC~B→CS	224	40%	Because you can't →BC out of ~8B issen, this is more boost efficient for same amount of damage
5BB~8B>CS	221		Simple and effective Does same damage as 5BBB but has better cut resistance Doing the 4th hit issen raises the damage to only 227
5BB~8B>5BBB→CS	230		Same damage as inverse, just depends on where you want to use the issen
5BB~8B>6B~8B>CS	217	20%	Forced Down Doing →CS finisher does 222 damage but loses the issen
5BB~8B>>BD8B→CS	233	45%	Good damage and great movement However, same damage as if you just do 5BB>>, so inefficient →BC can be added after the BD8B to cut tracking, but you need to immediately after release CS to get it to hit
5BB~8B>BD8B→BC~B	217	50%	Great cut resistance, but low damage You can try to →BC out of BD8B early and →CS out of BC~B early for extra damage, but it's extremely inconsistent
5BBB~8B>(5B)BBB~8B>(5B)B~8B>CS	259	??%	Whiff combo Transition is right step supposedly
4/6B Starter
6B>>BD8B→CS	225	33%
6B>>BD8B→BC~B(2hit)→CS	241	55%?
6B→BC~BB→CS	230	47%?
6B~8B>>2B(2nd hit only)>>BD8B→CS	244	??%	Whiff combo??
6B~8B>>BD8B→CS	241	45%?

• You need a wall to be able to followup any 8B attack

Input	Damage	%Boost	Notes
8B Starter
8B→CS	179	20%?	If you release fast enough can hit without a wall
2B Starter
2B(1hit)>>BD8B>>BD8B→CS	265	65%?
2B(1hit)BD8B→BC~B→CS	250	60%?	A little easier to do but a drop in damage
2B(1hit)→BC~B>>BD8B→CS	244	55%?	Inefficient compared to just doing CS after BC~B
2B>>BD8B→CS	242	45%
2B→BC~BB→CS	248	55%?
BD8B Starter
BD8B→BC~BB→CS	269
BD8B>>BD8B→CS	264
BD8BB>>BD8BB>2B(1hit)→CS	271	82.5% (measured)
BC8BB>>BC8BB→BC~B(2hit)→CS	280	79% (measured)	Death combo
[BC]~B Starter
BC~B>>BD8B→CS	243
BC~BB→CS	225

Directional-AC (all-range dragoons): →BC cancel route added. 4/6BC: amount of movement increased (so I guess this means moves more sideways?)
