Dunno if this was posted, but Mai has a midscreen HD combo that's demonstrated in this video for 1 bar. It does 500+ after the C Ryuenbu. It can be customized a bit more so that the ender, in the corner, can follow into a full corner combo.

Its known about but nobody does it because there is an extremely high chance of having the motions for QCB+P and HCF+K overlap and have her super come out.

That vid is the first time I've seen someone do it in a real match.

In a match, with tensions high, I can understand that. But performing it is actually pretty easy. If you let go of the stick after doing qcb+C, you can do hcf+D without super canceling.

I usually go for one rep of it... It lets her do the same damage from quite far... I've done it enough to not screw up if i do it once... Also been practicing her corner 1 frame link combo... It does 500 damage for 1 bar so i think it's worth it to try to go for if you get the chance... Even if you screw up, it's safe none the less...

Two practical HD combo samples -

KOFXIII Mai Shiranui 2 Bar HD Combo Variant
KOFXIII Mai HD combo Revised P2

There will be more videos to come, consisting of actual game play. Also, Mario E actually decided to play Mai as a main as of Winter Brawl! That makes me quite excited.
I've also been paying more attention to Luffy's Mai game play. Pretty nice if you ask, taking advantage of all of the good things that make Mai an annoying character to fight against.

The Fluke

I played around with mai some a while ago and realised that she can use her her d~u(up forward).P to cancel into air d.B to combo off of d.C. It can be used effectively if you for example do two d.B's and see that the opponent is blocking, you can do a d.C into air d.B, the opponent will have to stand up to block and it's pretty quick so it should be an efficient overhead mixup. If you think the opponent is going to block the overhead you can cancel it into qcb.A+C wich could potentially catch said opponent pressing buttons, if so, you get ryuuenbu into air throw in the corner, or from opponents starting position you can wallcarry with hcf.B DC qcb.C and then follow up with the same qcb.C into air throw as you would if you where already in the corner. I do not recall how much damage you actually get, but the damage is solid and the meter usage is far from high so i think it's worthwhile to play around with, especially if you usually run mai on anchor like i do and have some bars to spare.

Eripio told me that he has already mentioned this to some of you so i thought i should take the time to write it down.

Here are two HD combos I made:
KOFXIII Mai Combo by DarkIceSaiko/GDH
The first combo for no meter is 656 damage.
The second combo for 2 bars is 802 damage.

Also, here is another noteworthy HD combo to exploit:
j.C, s.C [HD activate] s.C, hcf+D [HDC] air qcb+C, hcf+D (FIRST HIT) [HDC] qcf+A, qcb+C, qcb+C, qcb+C [HDC] qcf+A, qcb+C, qcb+C > Neo Max = 811 damage

Another Mai combo - making use of one frame links = 2 bars 820 damage.
KOFXIII Mai Shiranui 1 frame link HD combo

Anyone has link to the winter brawl top 3? There was a Mai in the top 3... I've looked around but couldn't find the link...

Time for an update.
Mai's EX air qcb+AC does NOT have invincibility properties, thus it should be used as an offensive maneuver. Three hits and 0 frames on block. Sense Mai is neutral on block from using EX air qcb+AC, she will have plenty of options available. Should EX air qcb+AC hit successfully however, get ready to combo afterward.
From mid screen, you can input in a hcf+B and then drive/super cancel after the last hit.
Use EX air qcb+AC for mid air mix ups, set ups, keeping things safe (again, this move is 0 frames on block), and starting combos.
