Combos
Solo Combos
2L > 2M > 5H jc. j.5H xx airdash down, [2H jc. j.5H xx airdash down] x4, 2H > 5S sjc. j.5H > j.5S, land, 214XX (610,000 damage for 1 bar, builds ~0.8 bars of meter).
Storm's standard jump-cancel combo. It works midscreen, but is much easier in the corner. Feel free to cut one or two jump-cancel loops if you are struggling with them, as they individually do not add much damage. With any Storm combo that ends with raw Hailstorm, you can alternatively activate a THC if you are willing to spend the meter and your teammate's THC Hypers are a worthwhile damage increase.
2L > 2M > 5S sjc. j.5H xx airdash down-forward, j.5H, rejump, j.5H xx airdash forward, j.5H, land, 5M > 2H jc. j.5H xx airdash forward, j.5S, land, 214L xx 214XX (606,000 damage for 1 bar, builds ~0.9 bars of meter.)
Alternate combo route with slightly more meter build and a significant amount of corner carry. Because Storm uses an j.5S Air Combo Finisher so low to the ground, she has time to charge up a Double Typhoon for slightly more damage. Be careful not to use 2H in this route, as it knocks the opponent too high into the air.
j.5S, rejump > float j.5L > j.5H, land, dash 5M > 2H jc. j.5M > j.5M > j.5S, land, 5M jc. j.5S xx airdash down, 5M > 2H jc. j.5H > j.5S xx airdash forward, j.5H, land, 5M > 2H jc. j.5H xx airdash down, 5M > 5S sjc. j.5H > j.5S, land, 214XX (602,000 damage for 1 bar, builds ~1.1 bars of meter.)
Solo combo route optimized for meter gain. It's very difficult for Storm to build a full bar of meter in one combo.
2L > 2M > 2H jc. j.5S xx 3X+S > 6X+S > 2X+S, land, 5M jc. j.5H xx airdash down, 5M > 5S sjc. j.5H > j.5S, land, 214XX(606,000 damage for 1 bar, builds ~0.75 bars of meter.)
If Storm directs Lightning Attack down towards the ground, she can recover fast enough to pick up the combo with 5M.
X-Factor Combos
j.5S, land, 2L > 2M > 2H (Activate X-Factor), 5M jc. j.5H > j.5S xx airdash forward, j.5H, land, 5M jc. j.5H > j.5S xx airdash forward, j.5H, land, 5M jc. j.5H xx airdash forward, j.5H, land, 5M > 5S sjc. j.5H xx 623L, j.5S, land, 214L xx 214XX (~1,014,000 damage, Costs at least 1 bar of meter, builds 1.5 bars.)
Basically a standard Storm combo but with the damage and speed boosts from X-Factor. Storm can link attacks after Lightning Sphere even outside of X-Factor, if hitstun deterioration has not progressed too far.
(X-Factor Level 2 or 3), 5S sjc. j.5H > j.5S, land, 214L, 5S sjc. j.5H > j.5S, land, 214L, 5S sjc. etc.
Storm can relaunch after Double Typhoon multiple times in level 2 or 3 X-Factor, making for an easy, high-damage loop. Unfortunately, this route takes up a lot of time, wasting precious X-Factor duration.
Sample Team Combos
j.5S, land, 2M > 2H jc. 6X+S > 6X+S > 2X+S, land, 5M jc. j.5H > j.5S xx airdash forward j.5H, land, 5M > 5S+A (Akuma - Tatsumaki) xx 214S, j.5H [xx airdash forward j.5H] x3 > j.5S, land, 214L xx 214XX, 623XX (876,000 damage for 2 bar, builds ~1.2 bars of meter.)
Storm struggles to use assists to extend combos because she is already fighting against hitstun deterioration to use all of her solo extensions. This sample shows how a long-duration assist such as Akuma's tatsu assist can allow Storm to activate flight mid-combo and transition into airdash j.5H loops for extra damage. If Hailstorm hits high enough, Storm can link Elemental Rage afterwards for additional damage, as shown here.
