“During WWII, a covert military experiment turned scrawny Steve Rogers into a super-soldier. With strength, leadership, and a Vibranium shield, he fought for freedom as Captain America! Presumed dead towards the end of the war, he was found frozen in ice decades later and awoke into a different era. Having already been thrust into a new world, he may be the least fazed by the fusion of our universes.”
Both LP and HP S&S have gone straight through every hitbox I’ve thrown at them on wakeup. Jeda’s wheel, Iron-Man’s Proton Cannon, Hulk’s gamma charge, and his meaty charge punch.
This might be the dumbest “setup” in the history of fighting games but try this: do Hulk’s Gamma Crush and immediately tag in Captain America, then go for a cartwheel crossup while Hulk is coming down with the rock. works online at least haha
You can drop the first c.LK for more damage, I just included it as a potential high / low mixup if the opponent blocks the jump.
After the first Shield slash H you can f.LK, shield slash L for forward movement, it makes some parts easier at the cost of damage (50-ish damage IIRC)
If you’re having trouble connecting sjf.HK to sj.HK you can actually drop sjf.HK but lose out on a little over 100 damage.
I did see those other combos with the air shield slashes but I can’t get the short hop input consistently. and grounded shield slash combo seems to do more damage. The air combos are more like something you’d need for confirming off an air hit.
Slight variation to corner combo, arguably easier with consistently higher damage. HCS version requires Charging Star L whereas lvl 3 require Charging Star H.
The short hop combos are a little more open ended so they leave room for adjustments like going for a double HCS if you choose to. The grounded shield slash is easier but follows a set pattern as hitstun maxes out pretty quickly. Both have pros and cons from what I’ve seen.

Alternative bnb, mainly for Rocket. I have a few more theory combos based on this but it’s not forming together, hopefully someone can figure something out. I’m also considering stitching all the videos together and sending it to SRK to hopefully get front page and have more people build off them.
That’s a really dirty mixup, I need to steal that.
