Tech - Raiden Raiden mid screen vortex

This cannot be armored or backdashed. Your at plus 22 after the 2,1. It's guaranteed pressure and leads to a vortex

Input- Starter, ex shocker, b1,4, Lightning, run cancel, 2,1


EDIT: F1,2 should be used at the end instead of 2,1. You're at plus 17 which is enough for the vortex. It's faster, it leaves you standing closer to the opponent and it connects off of charged lightning strings, such as a held b3,2 or f1,2,b2.

This worked out pretty well for me the last couple days. You can extend your combos with this if you time a 214 after the run as fast as possible. Raiden does big dammy with this. You can go for a b2 or b3 out of the run for a 50/50. It can be interrupted by the fastest pokes in the game or armored through, but the reason 214 combos is because 2 has a much longer range than b2 and b3. You have to run a little further than you typically would. Some characters have 5 frame pokes. I did this a couple times on stream last night and got poked out a couple times. 0 knowledge about other characters though lol. Yolo.

Also, to set up this pressure, I'd recommend using it as a combo extender a couple times first. That way they might not think to react when you all of a sudden don't finish the combo and go for the 50/50.

This can't be interupted. You can combo a b2 after the run making it at least +12

I think I just found a breakthrough. This version cannot be armored or backdashed. Watch as I try to get out in the video. Your at plus 22 after the 2,1. It's guaranteed pressure. And leads to a vortex

Good find. Will play with this.

Anyways, does that really lead to a "vortex"?? Mixup yeah but can you lead back into it off of high/low mixups?

Are you sure electrocute would even hit at that range after the b2? It looks really far.

Exactly. It takes five seconds to type out the combo, meanwhile I'm spending like ninety seconds looping the video and I'm still lost.

Sorry but it's really hard to visually process a combo. I know we're in a world where everyone wants to live off clickbaiting and YouTube ad dollars but fuck...

Lol if you know the character at all you'd know by watching a video what to input. Also with some execution heavy combos its easier to see exactly when to time certain things rather then just knowing what to press. Any way

Starter, ex shocker, b1,4, Lightning, run cancel, 2,1
