LION TECH: Exploring Combo Opportunities Using 3K After Side Crumple and 9P

    I saw Chibita use a crazy combo against a Wolf player named Pazwolf:

    (on side) 2_6P+K (side crumple) > 7P+K+G (centers Lion to Wolf's front) > 9P (re-stand) > 3K > 6_P (off-the-ground bounce/dribble) > 6PP

    The 3K here allowed him to bounce Wolf off the ground with 6_P based on his positioning after the 9P re-stand. I am sure this is knowledge a lot of the top level Lion players in Japan already have, but this blew me away so I wanted to try and see if it works on everyone else.

    Spoiler Alert: It works on most of the cast, though with some changes.

    I'm working on a video to show what I've seen and tested so far. Special thanks to @Stl_Tim for testing some of the harder-to-execute patterns and giving me his feedback, I'm lucky to have a player with as high execution as he has to help with this one.

    (First post has been edited to include my YouTube video on this subject. Give it a watch! The visual aid is a lot clearer than this post might be.)

    I'll just dump some of the raw data I gathered from the combo practice.

    COMBO:
    2_6P+K (side crumple) > 1/7P+K+G > 9P (re-stand) > 3K > 6_P (re-bounce) > 6PP

    WORKS ON:
    Wolf (closed stance & use 1/7P+K+G towards Wolf's front; open stance & use 1/7P+K+G towards Wolf's back)

    COMBO:
    2_6P+K (side crumple) > 1/7P+K+G > 9P (re-stand) > 3K > 2P (re-bounce) > 66KK

    WORKS ON:
    Eileen, El Blaze, Aoi, Sarah, Pai, Lion, Vanessa, Lau, Kage, Lei, Brad, Goh, Jacky, Jean
    (see tables below for situations and notes)

    -KEY-
    NAME: Opponent character
    Closed/Open Stance: Will this combo work in closed/open stance? Y/N
    CS/OS 1/7P+K+G Readjust: Ability to combo either with readjustment after side crumple using 1/7P+K+G towards their front (F) or back (B) or without readjustment after side crumple and just going directly into 9P re-stand (N )
    COMMENTS: Notes on delays required, substitutions, etc.

    NOTE: Neither of the above situations work on the following characters: Taka, Jeffry, Akira, Shun.

    that combo was awesome, I'm so blown away by how creative Lion's combos can be though it is kinda frustrating how sneakily difficult a lot of them can be
