Algol Combos and Tech Traps

i find that i have to launch with ws b because tis so much easier to land than 33b. tho i can only get 8B+K to work off ws b if the opponent is near the wall. i have to use:
ws b, 4A+B, 8A+B, B+K ... i think thats right im not near my ps3 but im pretty sure thats the move. does anyone have a better combo off ws b

EDIT: i re-watched the ws combo vid, anyone got a smaller combo i can use for online, i havent tried those yet but im pretty sure i cant pull that shit 100% of the time.

ive also found myself using A+B, 2A+B, aB, 2b a lot also because A+B seems to be kinda safe.

ive also been using (now this notation could be slightly wrong but pretty sure i remember it): ws b, 4A+B, 6A+B, 22B, 2A+B, aB, 2b
i know this isnt an actual combo but it works as a mix up for me as if people stay on the ground the 22b gets them and i can continue punishing them. the aB tends to not connect if i input it to quickly.

i dont know if its the people i vs but whenever i vs another player using algol when they use 66ba they never seem to connect it with 66A+B, occasionally they do another 66ba but that doesnt do as much damage as 66ba, 66A+B i didnt see this in the combo video but hey i could of just not been paying attention at that moment ha ha
 
does anyone have any advice on how to use algols unblockable, im finding that the move is easily stepable and is for lack of better words complete garbage, has anyone found a good time to use it? any tips would be appreciated the move totally gets style points but i cant find a practical time to use it.
 
lau does some fun setups for it using a wall of projectiles to cover himself vs chang's friend in a match I've seen. I'm too lazy to find it though.
 
so i.e there is no real guaranteed way to get it to land or at least have a good chance of landing it... surprise throwing it in and hoping the opponent doesnt step and stops and blocks because of the surprise is all ive got i guess, because a wall of bubbles just makes it safe, it doesnt make it effective...
 
edit combos for the patch? cause 8A+B, 8A+B won't work...
oh yeah, WS [K] techs into a 1A for some extra damage. I think they can block it low but it works for me...
 
After aB, 22_88A techs both sides and sometimes combos into 11_77K if they're hit right...
Also after aB, 22_88B techs foward and back rolls and hits grounded but sometimes is out of range, combos into 2A+B, 66A+B (because of distance) or 2A+B, 623A, BT B+K (if they're close enough)...

Lol.

You're not exactly helping him get unbanned. :P

Good job. How long did it take you to get that? Because I know for a lot of the longer ones Rii had to retry the combo many times. Haha.
 
Yeah, I'm wondering how consistent you can be with these combos...but it says in the description that you whipped up the video real fast...and you did taunt at the beginning of one of the scenes...so that kind of scares me.
 
All of the combos except the very last one are fairly easy and can be done consistently. The last one is a bit tricky and took me a bunch of tries, because it requires delayed timing of the 7A+K and 8A+K at certain points in order for it to work. But I can see it being done consistently with enough practice.

Here's the last combo in the vid:

33B, 4[A+B], 9A+KBBBB, 8A+B, 4[A+B], 7A+KBBBB, 8A+B, 4[A+B], 6A+B x2, 8A+B, 4[A+B], *8A+KBBBB, 8A+B, 4[A+B], 7A+KBBBB, 8A+B, 4[A+B], 6A+B x2, 8A+B, 4[A+B], 7A+KBBBB, 8A+B, 4[A+B], 7A+KBBBB, 8A+B, 4[A+B], 6A+B x2, 8A+B, 4[A+B] x3, 6A+B, aB, 2B
