Some of the best Injustice 2 videos out there. Love your content keep up the great work!

[@davidcvo123]

I did not know what an option select was until I saw this video, thanks m8

[@captainfalco8503]

i was trying to understand option selects but i didnt know that the direction is inputed after the button. nice video :)

[@PsychokoreUndergroundRap]

you are very much appreciated.. thanks for all the insight

[@rodimusprime8616]

thank you so much bro

How can you land does 2 lighting kicks that fast and still have time to dash and land the 112?

[@ettionestuckey5463]

Im havin the same issue. Cant get the 112 in after the lightning kicks. But it helps when after you hit the enhanced sonic pound and you use the ability, you hit the dash commands during the animation. He'll dash as soon as its over and the lightning kicks are easier to land

[@etrigan966]

Pacoyinx 124 Its all about timing the first lightning kick. Do the lightning kick when the opponent is moderately high up - around heads length. After, the 22, then 22f3 you have to be patient when inputting it. Don't rush into the 22f3 when you do it. The 22 also has to be moderately high but if you started the combo like I said, you'll get it very easily eventually.
Hope it helps.

Aquaman doesn't need this because his frame data is too good anyways.

[@user-rg7gz5ce5e]

Safe 50/50's boys, and they thougth that MKXL was bad. LMAO.

[@Ran1d0m]

or you can cancel into running stance and cancel out of it

[@taylormade601]

cool just what 5050 characters need!

[@chrisamanda8598]

do u need certain control options on or off for this tech to work? eg: release check or anything?

[@RedRaptor10]

I have everything turned off.

[@shadow7walker]

Is release check must be on. Cause I only got it when it was on. Or at least it's way easier but the problem is RC mess up my inputs so bad.

[@RedRaptor10]

I have everything turned off.

[@ItsFuckinLoona]

Oh god, it's vanilla Raiden all over again. In before this gets nerfed.

[@actualakio8733]

Does robin have one?

[@AnantaNow]

Was darkseid patched?

[@tarulamok]

any option select for robin?

[@laneswafford3040]

tarulamok you can check yourself. If you have an unsafe string that ends with the same button as a special attack that is safe you can do this option select

[@peicos100]

Is the frame that tight?

[@rshbr]

What's F21/DB1?

[@RedRaptor10]

B = Back
U = Up
D = Down
F = Forward
1 = Square / X
2 = Triangle / Y
3 = X / A
4 = Circle / B
J = Jump
MB = Meter Burn
BGB = Background Bounce

[@Bcuzieatiron]

this feels like cheating even though I know it isn't

[@propurestzplays]

But what if you have no meter and you combo is blocked you're quite fucked now aren't ya

[@alfredks959]

Does this still works?

[@RedRaptor10]

Yes but you must have Input Shortcuts turned on. It's also very difficult to do so I wouldn't recommend it.

[@alfredks959]

Raptor ok, thanks. Great videos
