How do YOU combo?

My personal favorite is RR-D-LLLMM-S for most bots, most of the time.
I know there must be plenty of other combinations, especially for certain bots, e.g., Wheeljack is probably, RR-D-LLL-H, since you're probably trying to construct a bunch with him.
But, what about you, which 5/7-hit combo is your typical?
In case it's not obvious:
R – Range
D – Dash (typically forward except in the case of Prowl where maybe you dash back to get melee stack before going in)
L – Light
M – Medium
H – Heavy
S – Special

RR-M-LLL-H
RR-M-LLL-S
The 1st M is the dash. He's just not typing it the same way you are.
You can actually fire a special after the final medium hit and land it.
You're cheating yourself out of full damage on your last combo. Just fyi, trying to help.
Oh, ok...I didn't get that, thank you. I do the dash with my left hand and all my hits with my right hand so I distinguish them :-D
After sidestepping a dash attack, I usually combo
LLLMM+S (if available)
Uhp! I forgot to type that last M...I do that anyway because I have the mastery for it my bad
So.... how do you do a 6 hit melee combo? I think you may have typed one too many ‘M’s in there.
Repeat until I reach I special I want too unleash, were is I do a L as the last hit then throw it off
Certain bots, I always try and finish on a certain move. Cheetor’s lunging kick for his first med makes a nice looking finish. As does jazz’s sweep kick.
Some, like Bonecrusher or Ironhide or Megatronus, I’ll spam the heavy for the effect. Others, like Primal or OG Megatron, I’ll save the heavy because it maintains armor or fusion. Or fighting vs Barricade or Scout Shark I never use a heavy. Against Tantrum I’ll use heavy quickly if he blocks to keep him from becoming unstoppable.
But my standard set is this
Full Ranged Attack
LLMLL
Full Ranged Attack
MLLLM
Heavy Attack
LLLL
Heavy Attack
MM
the LLLMM is the five hits...D doesn't hit, right?
The D does hit...
So i reset my mastery set up recently and i maxed out counterpunch.
But the thing is I'm having trouble Landing a combo having that melee buff activated.
I step back and get the buff then i go M and before i go for LLL or anything , the AI counters
So for all of you using that mastery and landing combos, a little help here please 😂.
Vids are much appreciated.
Doesn't counterpunch work when you sidestep, not dash back?
I just double-checked in the arena. Counterpunch triggers when I side step and when I step back.
LLL M M S
LLL M S
LLLL H
LLL M M
LLL M
(This many combo is due to the randomness of 1 or 2 medium hits)
Depending on situation. That basically all I do
The dash attack counts as the first medium hit. Then you can do three light attacks before one last medium hit. Can’t do two mediums at he end if starting a combo with a dash attack.
my apologies @Bntyhntr3232_ , you were right...I'm not sure how I did that with Arcee the first time but what I was thinking of as a Dash was indeed a M as you said. I have not been able to reproduce what I saw with Arcee again and all bots seem to be consistent...Thanks for helping me understand that, I think it's going to help my attacks make more sense now!
Exactly. And how do you start the combo while the melee buff is on? Is it MM or MLLLM
Try to squeeze in another H in the end, if possible.
