SJ/EA is a great combo and not just because they're both new. Street justice does so much freaking damage that it's the one set I've been able to justify pairing with a non-damage aura set lately, and the aoes' modest range goes very well with a taunt aura. It isn't a particularly demanding set for recharge but it doesn't hurt, either, so that's a nice bonus. I guess if you wanted to get crushing uppercut into a seamless chain with three combo builder hits it would be incredibly demanding, if even possible, so there's synergy in that sense too.
And, of course, both of the sets are really good. This is an advantage because as history has taught us, good things are better to have than bad things.
I'm leaning towards Street Justice/Shield Defense. Seems like it'd be crazy good for damage, and pretty tough if built up well, plus it just has an overall nice "natural" feel.
I,m thinking of going SJ/WP scrapper or brute 
tried it on beta and it looks the bizz.
Prof Radburn controller,Celtic Ice Maiden,blaster,Miss Knockout scrapper,Mistress Davina controller,Stone Hart,tank Split Personality PB.Queen Lostris controller,Fridgid Mary blaster,Shocking Fire blaster Future Elfling defender, Little Weed controller,Capo Angelo MM, Commander Buzzsaw MM, Justice Tank tank all 50,s
In beta I did try SJ/EA. Right now Im leaning SJ/EA which I will make when I get home from work
SJ/SR would make a cool concept character.

I'm swinging StJ/Regen as well. In beta even at low levels I had something resembling an attack chain, and keeping things rolling with the combo meter means I need to keep the endurance coming and keep the health flowing. Plus, since it's not a weapon set, I can manage Regen's heals and clickies without worry.

So who's been running numbers? I am extremely curious if a [Rib Cracker > Shin Breaker > Rib Cracker > Heavy Blow/Crushing Uppercut] attack chain is possible, though I sort of doubt it. Since you could get -15% res from 2 Rib Crackers, -20% res from achilles proc in Shin Breaker, and potentially -20% res with a fury of the gladiator proc in Heavy Blow when Crushing Uppercut isnt up.
I don't actually have the set though yet, and mids isnt updated with it, and I suck at formulating attack chains, I could be way off, but -35-55% res coming from a melee could be damn sexy.

I know on Beta I was using SB-HB-RC-SB-CU for my chain on a StJ/EA scrapper => it worked quite well.|

It murdered the endurance bar however => Energy Drain helped overcome that, but I did have to use it every time it was up.
The damage was pretty nice

My first street justice toon has rolled off the assembly line: Stj/SR brute, contemplating energy armor, also as I was going through the character creator I noticed that stone armor is an option......tempting to try that but 3 stone armor alts is enough I think.

Does /shield change the animations of StJ?
SJ/INV for the win!
StJ/Ela Brute as a Blanka tribute character.
StJ/WP scrapper for a natural brawler.
the chance for recharge is amazing in the foot sweep

Depends on how you put your own spin on it. While I am doing Evil Ken, there was no Evil Ken character with capcom, there was a Violent Ken character. My version of Ken is actually closer to the star trek mirrorverse where he has a goatee and darker blonde hair. The back story is going be very off from what capcom did to the regular Ken. Thats why its original. |

Already having my fill of /SD toons the question is
StJ/EA (yay 2 new shinies)

Anyone have a good feel for the set from beta? I remember there being some complaints about the AOE spin attack and how to maximize it.
