db+2,1,2

Fast, first two hits are confirmable and safe. Third hit serves as a mixup as it will CH launch if opponent presses after the 2nd hit.

b+4,2,1

Tough CH confirm into 3rd hit, but big damage if whole string connects. 3rd hit is a high but could lead to full combo if it counter hits by itself and Heat is active.
