Green Arrow Move List Injustice 2

Alright, settle in, folks! Grab a virtual latte, because we're diving deep into the world of Green Arrow in Injustice 2. Now, I know what you're thinking: "Green Arrow? Isn't he just Batman with a bow and arrow?" And to that, I say... well, okay, maybe a little. But trust me, ol' Ollie Queen's got some serious tricks up his, uh, quiver. He's like a Swiss Army Knife, if Swiss Army Knives shot exploding boxing gloves.
Basic Moves: More Than Just Arrows
First things first, let's cover the basics. You know, the stuff that separates the button-mashers from the true Emerald Archers. We're talking about the fundamentals, people!
- Light Attack (Square/X): This is your jab, your "get off me" button. Think of it as a verbal warning... delivered with a pointy stick.
- Medium Attack (Triangle/Y): A little slower, a little stronger. Perfect for setting up combos or just straight-up poking your opponent. It's like saying, "Hey, I'm serious now!"
- Heavy Attack (Circle/B): The big daddy. The haymaker. The "I'm about to rearrange your face" button. Use it wisely, because whiffing this is like shouting your intentions from the rooftops.
- Character Power (R2/RT): Okay, this is where things get interesting. Ollie can switch between different arrow types. Think of it as his spice rack. Want a little fire? Explosive arrow. Feeling chilly? Ice arrow. Need to... uh... intoxicate someone? Poison arrow! The possibilities (mostly) aren't endless!
Don't underestimate these basic moves! Mastering them is key to becoming a Green Arrow god. It's like learning your ABCs before writing a novel. You can't shoot exploding boxing gloves until you can punch someone in the face... digitally, of course.
Must Read
Special Moves: Arrow-dynamic Action!
Alright, buckle up! This is where Green Arrow really shines. His special moves are all about trick arrows and ranged shenanigans. He's the king of zoning, the master of keeping his opponents at arm's length (or arrow's length, I suppose). Just try to avoid a close-quarters fight, or it can be lights out for you.
Trick Arrows Galore!
- Boxing Glove Arrow (Down, Back, Light Attack): This is the move I mentioned earlier, folks! A giant boxing glove on an arrow. It's as ridiculous and amazing as it sounds. Imagine getting clocked in the face by a boxing glove that traveled 50 feet. Humiliating!
- Ice Arrow (Down, Forward, Light Attack): Freeze your opponent in their tracks! Perfect for setting up combos or just giving yourself some breathing room. Just imagine, being frozen by an arrow is far less embarrassing than being hit by a boxing glove.
- Fire Arrow (Down, Back, Medium Attack): Set your enemies ablaze! Good for damage over time and keeping them on their toes. "Honey, I just set the Joker on fire with an arrow!" What a story to tell at dinner!
- Poison Arrow (Down, Forward, Medium Attack): Weaken your opponent with a dose of toxins. This is like passive-aggressive archery. "Oh, I'm not trying to kill you... just make you feel slightly under the weather."
- Sky Avenger (Down, Down, Heavy Attack): Green Arrow launches himself into the air, raining down arrows on his opponent. It's like calling in an orbital strike... with pointy sticks. Be careful though, it can be punished if blocked or predicted.
Other Arrow-iffic Moves
- Arrow Kick (Forward, Forward, Medium Attack): A surprisingly effective melee attack! It's like Green Arrow realized he left his arrows at home and decided to improvise.
- Slide (Down + Heavy Attack): A quick slide to close the distance. Useful for getting in close or escaping pressure, I use this to feel cool.
Combos: Stringing Arrows Together
Okay, so you know the moves. Now it's time to string them together and create some seriously damaging combos! This is where the real fun begins.

Here are a few example combos to get you started:
- Light Attack, Medium Attack, Fire Arrow: A basic combo that's easy to execute and deals decent damage. The fire arrow at the end adds some extra oomph!
- Jump-In Heavy Attack, Light Attack, Medium Attack, Boxing Glove Arrow: A more advanced combo that requires a bit more timing, but the payoff is worth it. Who wouldn't want to end a combo with a boxing glove to the face?
- (Corner) Light Attack, Medium Attack, Sky Avenger: This combo requires you to be in the corner, but it deals massive damage. It's like trapping your opponent in a pinball machine of pointy death.
The key to mastering combos is practice, practice, practice! Head into the training mode and experiment with different combinations of moves. Find what works for you and develop your own unique style. The best part of finding combos for me is when I find a completely new one. It's always a rush!

Character Power: Arrow Switching Strategy
Green Arrow's character power is more than just a fancy animation. It's a tactical tool that can completely change the flow of a match. Choosing the right arrow type at the right time is crucial to success.
- Explosive Arrow: Great for zoning and creating space. The explosion knocks your opponent back, giving you time to set up your next attack. It's like saying, "Get back! I need my personal space!"
- Ice Arrow: Perfect for freezing your opponent and setting up combos. It's like hitting the pause button on their misery.
- Poison Arrow: Deals damage over time, chipping away at your opponent's health. It's like slowly poisoning their digital soul.
- Stun Arrow: Great for interrupting combos and creating openings. It's like hitting them with a surprise dose of "nope."
Learn to switch arrow types on the fly to adapt to different situations. Master this, and you'll be a force to be reckoned with. I usually start out with explosive arrows, and then punish with a poison arrow. I usually end on a frost arrow, for flavor.
Advanced Techniques: Become the Ultimate Archer!
Alright, aspiring Green Arrow masters! This is where we separate the wheat from the chaff. We're talking about advanced techniques that will take your game to the next level. Prepare to have your mind blown!

- Meter Burning Special Moves: Enhance your special moves with meter to deal more damage and gain additional effects. A meter-burned Boxing Glove Arrow is like a super-powered punch to the face!
- Character Power Cancels: Cancel the animation of your character power to bait out your opponent or create mix-up opportunities. It's like feinting in a sword fight... with arrows.
- Roll Cancels: Cancel your roll animation to create unexpected movement options. This is great for escaping pressure or repositioning yourself for an attack.
- Punishing with Meter Burn: Meter burn the move that you punish with. This is the only way you can do some amazing damage. Without using meter burn, you aren't going to get very far.
These techniques require a lot of practice and timing, but they can completely change the way you play the game. Don't be afraid to experiment and push the boundaries of what's possible. The true Green Arrow masters are the ones who are always learning and adapting.
