Closing down upwards attack combo

Superman’s Heat Vision is a vital part of almost every important combo out there.

Knockback combo

This is another short one, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t effective. This Superman combo is going to keep pushing your enemies back and give you a bit of breathing space to prepare for the next chained moveset. It’s worth noting that a lot of this is about timing and making sure you’re always in the right range to make the most of Superman’s swinging attacks.

High damage ring-out combo

You might not think this one would work on paper, but it does. When your enemy is high damage, Superman’s Heat Vision attacks have an amazing kick-back that will bounce your opponents up off the ground. This means you can easily get a Ring-Out if you time your attacks well and position yourself perfectly.
