If you get the height right, you can add an extra Hold.Back~Fwd+B for an OTG attack at the end.
EDIT: They can recovery roll the OTG hit, but if not, it's 9 hits and it does 95% damage (forget the DM!). One strong punch or kick will kill the opponent afterwards!
i'd say that leona's BnB combos are usually centered around her standing close D ... to DM. not too sure about o. leona, considering shes only in 97, 98, 02 (as a transformation). it is a letdown though that they didn't update o. leona seeing as how shes the 97 version of leona. also, it sucks not having f + B.
Yes, and she can move sooner to boot. Normal Leona has to wait until the hairband is out for a while, while Riot Leona can move immediately once it's out.
I've noticed ROTB Leona's Moon Slasher has higher priority to boot: I've never had it trade hits against jump-in the way regular Leona's could.
-but you can still hit her before her arm hits you and outprioritise, unless there's a difference between A and C version. Both standing, Chizuru's C seemed to beat it everytime.
