(Read below for combo notation)

Max is such a great character, and has insane corner carry due to how his grab works

I use CPU keypad notation for directions; 8=up, 4=left, 6=right, 2=down, 5=neutral.
A=attack, J=jump, S=special, P=pick up,
A(hold)=press & hold A, A(rel)=release A,
BA=back attack

-Max's Spinning Knuckle Bomb infinite is extremely flexible; you can preface the special with a variety of different moves, but the easiest is to just do BA(1 hit) 5S; this is extremely reliable to followup after landing a 4J6A S(air) or 6JA S(air)
-to me, the SKB infinite works best if you use up at least 1 wall bounce before going into it; every time i tried to go into it without doing so, the opponent would pop out
-using a power slide as part of the corner carry will use up your otg, but gets you much further into the corner

-this infinite setup uses up all wall bounces and saves the otg until you reach the corner, allowing you to tag on quite a number of extra hits before you actually get to the infinite
-another SKB infinite variation is to do 66A instead, but you will need to control Max and move him back out of the corner; if you don't do it right, they will get knocked out of the corner

-one of the things that makes Max's grab so flexible in setting up corner carry combos is that you can control the direction his 2 jumps go before landing the air throw, so you can do the same starting combo as the fullscreen carry, but adjust the jumps if you started them closer; if you started them near the wall for instance, you could jump backwards x2
-AAA 5S is also another SKB infinite variation, and a bit easier than the power slide variation; you only need to move him out of the corner every 2-3 reps or so
