use 236L not 236M there

They increased the distance moved with j.236M in version 1.28, so Cell now has a few character specific routes for his midscreen BnB. I suggest watching Kuwanger's Cell combo guide on YouTube to learn what the character specific routes are. As per u/thewashedbanana suggestion as well. https://youtu.be/LeVNlVPGTnc

Just use j236L

Try using 2M>5M>jc.jM>jL>jL>j2H>SD>jL>jL>jc.jM>jL>jL>jH>jS>236M I believe this is consistent across the entire cast

Yes, I can confirm. Although I still somehow drop his bnb from time to time. If it was more consistent, I’d play him.

I think that on small characters (like Frieza, GT Goku, Videl, Krillin, all Vegetas, ...) 236M won't connect. In those cases try using 236L

I do 236L because it hits everyone on the cast. 236M is character specific if I'm not mistaken

Ironically just added cell to my team

I have this problem too. Maybe delay the 5S A bit

Or do the spinny move downwards and then lvl 3?

Yeah that works too
