I'm satisfied with the diversity in the combos that I used, less so with the fact that I was unable to beat Yami's Dragooon RDF when I knew it was coming both times :( .

Think I've found one of my favourite stamina killers (and even attack killer as today proved) so far honestly. I used sX.4G.N to win two of the three battles I had in the preliminaries of today's event, and exclusively used it against Ultra and Chimera in the Quarter-Final and Semi-Final rounds of the event to seal two 6-0 victories. It simply worked and got the job done far better than anything else I could create, and only some trouble when facing sX Orbit combinations (which became more common as the day went on).
Interesting! jamie also used sX Orbit here in Toronto and found success, but I was able to shut it down in the finals with dF.7G.Ω. I also imagine that perhaps some Xtreme-based attackers could deal with sX on Needle or Orbit as well–as it seems you did with L2–but it certainly does do well against stationary/Stamina-based combos.
Can confirm semi-mobile sX is a monster. I did some informal testing with sX.7C.W/At over the break, it KOed/bursted a lot of stuff (though I'm not surprised that it couldn't KO opposite spin Ωcta), and hardly ever lost a click itself. The Atomic version was easier to burst, but also outspun dF.4G.At a few times when it didn't KO/burst it. It's a lot like Wyvang Wyvang RDF in terms of how it plays IMO.
somebody try it on destroy

In opposite spin match-ups it can defeat Atomic-based combos and Attack types, making it quite versatile. And even in same spin match-ups, you have the ability to KO the opponent (I lose in Round 5 against OldSchool’s dF on Atomic 3-2, but my two points with dF on Destroy were via KO).
Against opposite spin opponents, Destroy will beat basically everything except Bearing-based combos.
Do you find that Destroy self-bursts as much as Hold in same-spin matchups? And can it outspin Ωcta in opposite spin as well?
also side note I love how TT basically made stock nL the same thing as my L2 Hold combo. life imitates art lol
