Combo List - Ermac MKX Ermac Combos Thread

what max dmg off EX lift for MoS? i find myself using that as a reversal against a lot of kotal wargods specials due to pushback. currently doing:

EX lift, jip, b12 b12 b12xSoulball, jip f21u2 b12xSoulblast for 33%
Ex lift, F3xxtele, b12, F4xxSoulBall, jipxxF21u2, F4xx soul ball is my bnb

Also,
Here's a ermac optimized combo video I made :). Everything is 35-92% from bnbs to AAs to x-rays.

Noob's saibot or noob saibot's?
new corner combos :f4 soul ball, step forward soul release, d2, NJP, f21d2, JIK, b1d2 (or preferred ender)
same combo for the low starter,
also working on a metered version : f4/b3 soul ball, step forward soul release, d2, d2, d1 EX lift (this is tight) f21d2, JIK tele, ender

also 46% meterless from f21d2 : f21d2, f3 up blast, 4 soul ball, step forward soul release, d2, d2 (they stay in the corner)
its possible to land a NJP after the 1st d2 but its really tight, so maybe this can go a bit higher

you can do 40% into reset from f21d2 :) f21d2,4~up blast, 222~soul ball, backdash, j1,b12
last 2 is quite hard though :(

I tried your combo. It does around 40%...you can get the same amount with f4~soul ball, back dash, j1,f21d2,njp,j3,4~blast. Or get 45% with f4~soul ball, back dash, j1,f21d2,4~up blast,222~blast

I spam so well, i get 50/51's
The soul ball simply captures again to complete the loop. Alright. Ill practice this in some friendlies and in the lab and see what i can get done.

There is a thread here in the ermac sub forum dedicated to this topic

Be warned, because if you guess right you get damage. If you guess wrong and are blocked then you eating damage

It's all so very confusing.
Ok, looking over the combos here and such, its hard to know where to start because as near as I can tell, Ermac can essentially combo everything forever. What do you all recommend as go-to BnBs for someone learning Ermac? Ideally nothing insane execution-wise, but practical stuff that you could reasonably expect to land in a match and grant reliable damage? Really, I guess just a few of some poeple's favorite combos, off of practical starters.
 
All but 2 of these are fairly easy to perform



You're most combo practical starters are going to be F21 D2, 222, B12 or F4/B3

You can opt for 2 different methods of going about it. A vortex setup, or raw damage. For Raw Damage you can do something along the lines of:


222 x soul ball ~ Ji2 ~ F21D2 ~Ji3 xxx Teleport~ B12 ~ F4 xxx Soul Burst for roughly 40 to 41%


for a Vortex setup you have

F21D2 ~ Ji3 ~ B12 ~F4 xxx Soul Ball ~ Ji2 ~ B12 which leaves you significantly plus and able to mixup your opponent.

I use these. Wall carry, position swap, corner, AA and famous b1d2 setup. Viable online. Difficult ones have several versions (i.e corner 222~up blast is hard and I believe it doesn't work on females so it has 3 versions in video :) )
 
On an unrelated note, I've noticed that for whatever reason my phone no longer supports the Plug Ins for YouTube links left on this site. Has anyone else encountered this issue?
