Here's a high damage Kitana combo that doesn't use any meter:
Kitana 44% damage combo
I've actually played quite a bit with Kitana, there's a bunch of combos that do 30-37% damage and don't use any meter at all.
Here are some other massive damage Kitana combos:
Kitana combos (massive damage)
I can't pull off that JP after the f+BP, FP combo starter though
My best Kitana combo (no meter used) is 14 hits, 42% damage (15 hits, 45% damage when you start it off with a diagonal JP).
The only issue I have with her are the inputs for her projectile (d, f, FP) and square wave boost (d, b, FP) attacks. If the opponent teleports while I'm doing the inputs for one of those moves, the cpu will sometimes register the other move (not the one that I went for).

Well first off I absolutely need a transcript of the actual button presses for those badass Kitana combos so I can try those! lol. Hard to tell on the vids what they are pressing and what kind of timing they are using and I love Kitana so... yeah.. need better combos. I can only do like 32?% I think, 41% with X-ray. So she's my second main so next to research and get better with now that I've finally achieved easy 40-50%+ damage with my first main Scorpion.
Thank you so much for the credit, it is an honor. lol. Actually I should mention that now with the tweaks made to the real game (non-demo) the 49% double JK-teleport into JK-airthrow that you got from me is now impossible so should probably be removed from a good strategy for that reason.
However, I will provide my new B&B's with Scorpion and I will use the same format as you did for your convenience.
Notes on "Combo Starter":
After thorough experimentation I have come to the conclusion that with Scorpion either JPS followed quickly by any of the following: "FP, FP", "BP, FP", or "F+BP, FP" are all viable "combo starters" that deal the same damage and are just as effective so it's really a matter of personal preference so you may substitute the starter for whichever combo you find easiest to use or the best looking for maximum show off potential (personally I like the F+BP, FP for showing off but for serious play I use the BP, FP one as it is the easiest for me to make sure I do the double hit before the spear for max damage potential). Because of this I will list it simply as "Combo Starter". Again you may read "Combo Starter" as "JPS, FP, FP", "JPS, BP, FP", or "JPS, F+BP, FP" interchangeably.
I should also mention that you can still do the below combos just off the spear, or minus the JPS, or even minus one of the hits from the 2 hits, but these will lower the damage output slightly however still dealing a large chunk but giving you tons of versatility to these combos as you can pull them out of anywhere as a result. I will give the ranges for damage/hits if I can remember them or I will make an update later if people wish.
The below can be done Mid-Screen and as always from me requires no expert set up or special conditions.
Main Combo (No X-ray, actually No super meter at all as I save mine for X-ray when playing as Scorpion. I don't think he needs his ES moves in combos with 42-43% without it, lol.):
"Combo Starter", cSpear, NJP, (dash), B+BP, JK, Teleport, JK, Airthrow.
((11 hits, 42% damage. May alternately substitute a second Teleport for the Airthrow for trickier timing but it will raise max damage from 42% to 43% and count as a 10 hit. I prefer the Airthrow as it looks cooler and 1% isn't a big loss to me))
X-ray Combo:
"Combo Starter", cSpear, NJP, (dash), B+BP, JK, Teleport, (dash), BP, cX-ray.
((12 hits? (I think but I am unsure at the moment, lol), 52% damage definite though. The final dash, BP into X-ray requires some tough timing though. At least by my standards, lol)).
Be careful not to accidentally do the sword move (F+BP) when trying to do the dash, BP into the X-ray, lol. I mess this up quite often.
I hope everyone enjoys these combos, lol. I hope even more that they help to elevate Scorpion on the tier list, LOL. As always any and all feedback on my combos, etc. is most appreciated!
BTW, I'm proud of myself as I beat Story Mode on Medium (mostly because I did not read the options well enough to know I could have lowered the diff), I beat the challenge tower without having to buy my way past anything. Though I did lose a lot especially on End Game. Apparently from what I hear most people find are having alot of trouble with Medium Story (well to be honest I did too, lol, I was cursing the whole time when I was Raiden for his tougher battles, sorry trying not to spoil anything just in case you know) and understandably having issues beating the challenge tower so since I beat them all within a few days of getting it (and I got it midnight it came out) I guess I'm not quite as sucktastic as I thought I was. Would still get stomped online though.
Take care everyone!
