Cerebella Peacock Filia
Hey everyone! I just started Skullgirls not to long ago and I'm so excited to be playing this game. I am playing at the moment (and probably sticking as mains with) Cerebella, Fillia, and Peacock. I know some BnB combos with Filia and Cerebella, which are relatively easy (25 hits or so), but I am in need of some Peacock easy combos. Could you guys please help me out? I will try out all combos that are put here, and will tell you guys my progress every now and then. Thanks so much in advance, and can't wait to see what combos there are out there!
 
Hmm...

Level 1 Basic Peacock Midscreen/Corner Combo:
s.LP s.MP c.HP s.HK xx H Shadow of Impending Doom,
Dash, s.LP s.MP c.HP xx MP-Bang! xx Argus
Most things better than that and you're going to have to learn her Air Dash Cancel combos.
The timing is a bit finnicky at first but you'll get it down with some practice.
Here's the basic ADC combo I did when I played Peacock, it works on everyone and in the corner too:
s.LP, s.MP, s.MK,
j.MP, j.HP, ADC,
j.LP, j.JMP,
c.LK, s.MP, c.HP, s.HK x Item Drop H
Dash
s.LP, s.MP, c.HP x Bang! M xx Argus Agony
With Peacocks combos you usually want to space out your hits so that it hits right before they are about to recover.
For example, in the above combo you want to hit the first j.MP as late as possible, and then hit the j.HP as late as possible after the j.MP hits them.

For more Peacock Combos, be sure to check out the Peacock compendium by @mcpeanuts
Most of the normal ones used should be in there.

Skarmand ninja'd me, so since he took care of the big work, I'll give you what I actually came to post.

If the ADCs give you hell, here's some adcless/rejump combos instead. But try to learn the adc combos.
These will get you off your feet though.

 
Thanks guys! I'm gonna start to practice ADC since it's essential. When I get it down I'm going to come back here. I honestly cannot wait to do so, and I will be back when I do, and try out these combos.

Also you might already know this but there's two ways to ADC:
Hit two punches together, or double tap the stick forward.

I find hitting two punches together (LP MP) to be much easier especially for Peacocks combos.

I absolutely can't do peacock combos with button dashes...
 
I strictly button dash for ADs and I stick dash (hitbox lel, still button dashing) for dashjumps in combos. (Dashjumps in neutral are still button presses for me.. which.. I use PP macro too.)

ANYWAYS, I PP dash Peacock's air dash stuff, yeah, that's how I do it.

The problem is that her air dash has startup, so you have to get used to adc delay > next button.
That being said, her air dash startup is NOT all bad! It's great for IAD moves at point blank!
 
Hey again! I got the hang of all of these combos, and they are starting to be muscle memory at this point. ADC is so easy, and I can adapt to use both ways to ADC. I made myself use both ways because I want to make sure I'm confortable with both. I learned these a while ago, but I thought I would just check up on the thread again. Thanks everyone so much! I'm always accepting combos too!
