Metered
| Combo | Damage | Meter Gain | Works on: | Difficulty | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| ...djc > j.LLS > j.214H(2) > vanish > j.214M | ? | -1.5 | All | Easy | Way to squeeze more damage out of a combo before ending with supers. |
| ...djc > j.LLS > j.214H | ? | -0.5 | All | Easy | j.214H has a faster startup then j.214M meaning it will work in high HSD combos more often. |
Notes
Corner loops. Goku needs to be on the way down when he does j.S, then j.236L needs to hit near the ground so it can link into 5L, and finally the opponent also has to be at a specific height so either:
- j.LL doesn't give you too much autocombo boost which would ruin the momentum for falling j.S. (LOOPS)
- j.MLS doesn't whiff. (LOOPS #2)
Doing j.ML instead of j.LL does a tiny bit more damage depending on the starter, there's only 1 delay instead of 2, but it doesn't have the slight height correction of j.LL. Just pick one you feel comfortable with.
There's a lot of leeway with the delays to make the combo work. Depending on juggle height, you can even get away with no delay at all.
General rule when confirming into loops and your not sure if the opponent will drop out of the combo because of high HSD. If the combo counter passes 15, prepare to end the combo and if the combo counter says anything above 17 the j.236 ▷ 5L link will not work.
