Why not hit the lab? Half the fun is figuring it out.

Then again, you can just use his dash punch over and over again. That works
:DOGE
I don't play against scrubs, that doesn't work for me.

I work full time so I'm better at stealing/learning tech than making it.

W.e though,, I guess ill just move to the next character while you jax players figure something out :/

I posted my BnB not long ago in the combo thread.

Midscreen 41% corner carry. Also, not easy so it takes practice; not for the execution-challenged players. The timing is strict.

f21 xxx overhead dash punch, run, f21, 11, f21 xxx gotcha


I'm going to go out on a limb and say this might be his only practical midscreen combo (meaning starting from overhead dash punch and not something zany like 3b2).

Good stuff man. Do you know if it is possible to do the same combo starting with b3,4 xxx overhead dash punch?

Not sure if it will because 4 launches as well as overhead dash bouncing but testing this in the lab should get you your answer pretty quickly.

Here is a couple more combos but I like the one linked above better and it is probably easier than this one.

Also these corner combos starting off a low and an overhead meterless.
 
I use the wrestler variation. Here are I couple I came up with thanks to @AK Stormthegates


Suggestions on the run cancel? I get the overhead punch, but can't seem to link the next f2, I'm always a little short. I see my stamina drop just a bit so I feel like I'm getting the cancel down at least. Do you just f, f+blk then f2?

You run cancel and then do the f2 almost immediately. The timing is very tricky but when you get it down the rest of the combo is pretty simple.
 
seems all of jax's variations rely on the run mechanic to do any kind of damage midscreen!

run mechanic combos are way too unreliable to pull off online for me...

bit disappointed, jax is a savage in the corner...I'l give it a couple of days see if anyone can find some decent non run mid screen combos, if not I'l probably write jax off as a potential main :(
 
i was getting confused by the xxx stuff.

i need to start off small

i keep trying this forward 2 1 energy wave down 4 superman punch but it aint working? i really wish there was a break down tutorial of jax already like in ki we had vidos showing you which was the best pokes what the button combos were on screen stuff like that woudl really help me anyway

i been practing and i dont feel ive gotten any better i can randomly get some kinda decent combo done with 27 to 32 percent damage done but i have no cue what im doing the downward dash punch is tricky on stick for me atleast.

Breaking news:

The run combos for Jax are more difficult to pull off on the female characters because they have shorter legs.

Confirmed this in the lab just now.
Yep. You can still do it on them, but the timing is a bit tighter. Just gotta change the timing a little

But I didn't want to dash
It's a jax player strategy to do nothing for moths after the games release in order to get buffs. Then they come out with armor ;)
