Arcadia (Mar 04) Combos

/versus/images/graemlins/shocked.gif*Thumbs up* Thanks.

 

it's quite amazing that even today new combos are being discovered... that wolf one is totally oblivious to me, i will try that tonight.. i think i've seen some of those akira ones tho.

While this is the highest damage Brad combo that's guaranteed, you might as well do + -> dash -> --> --> , for 69 pts, and if they don't tech (which is kind of hard to do), you can go for a down attack for an additionaly 6 - 12 pts. Bringing the combo to 75 - 81 pts total. That's worth risking the extra 1 pt damage incase they happen to tech it. You can do it for Kage and Lei too, but since they have a guaranteed max damage of 77 pts by doing +,, the risk isn't as good.

 

UPDATE:

the wolf combo is 56 normal, 66 MC btw (off the top of my head?).. it's quite easy to do but you have to hold with the high P, after that, just cancel the K and screw hook pretty fast.. the best place to do it is after the catch ~ push since u have all the time to input the commands right with a 50% chance of wrong stance as your only fall.. the rest of the time it's quite fiddly to input into your game imo.

i also figured that you can actually do +. , + on lights closed stance (not sure about mids yet) it's just that it's easier to time than the Low P version for the people who dont know about this.

i'm pretty sure i'm chattin old news tho ^___^

u can do it since Ver C...n it was so good in the old days...coz u can pick em up n ring em out XD

from memory, u can even do it on akira in Ver C.

 

yeah, i knew that the low P version could be done in the old days but the high P one? high P sux after b+p in ver.C... /versus/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

 

was it high or low p? i forgot....

all i know is, in evo...i systematically removed that particular combo outta my head.

now that u mentioned it, prolly is low p too....

 

*pst* Shun doesn't have a + move /versus/images/graemlins/wink.gif
I think it's meant to be +. If not then it's the Chouwan, and no one would dare miss print that move! Hehe, just tryin' ta help.

Cheers,
Cuz

 

that shun combo was alot easier than i thought it would be. nice little thing to add to the arsenal.

Akira
vs Lei, Lion, Goh, Brad, Kage, Open stance
+ - - - (79 pts)
- vs Lei it must be a crouching minor counter hit and you need a 1-frame delay on the Yoho ()
- vs Lion works on normal hit, no delay needed
- vs Goh, Brad, Kage you need a 1-frame delay on the (so you can enter it as or +).
- The first of the hits OTG so it's possible for them to do just recovery.
- this combo was found by Hanabi Lei, so is called the Hanabi combo /versus/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Has anyone tried this combo? The combo's got confirmed on a counter hit with 93 damage, but I haven't got any success on normal hit so far. /versus/images/graemlins/frown.gif

 

*WOW* i should try that sometime. who would've thought such an impossible combination could ever connect.

-but just cuz the topic has been brought upalready, i am hoping sega "doesn't fix" these combos in FT, because most of them push the limits of gravity to its gravity /versus/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

Seems a little reaching to include combos that can be stopped with just recovery. Or are they saying the first of the always hits OTG and you can only just recover against the second ?

 

Akira - On Kage, normal hit, you can end the combo with double palm to do 80pts and kage cannot do just recovery to avoid the double palm(i think). Doing the same combo on Goh and ending with double palm, the damage is 77 instead(if i remember correctly) so its better to do f,f+kk.

I can do the combo(normal hit) consistantly on all characters except Lion??? Suppose to be easier as I dont have to do the 1 frame delay???

Anyway, thanks Myke. Suddenly Akira became interesting again.

nah, ......... is that possible? /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

 

I tried this out in some matches (too lazy for training mode these days) without any luck and decided to fuggetaboutit.

But fellow Akira's are in trouble!!!

I'm mystified. Vs Lion I had no difficulties...it was tight and I missed the first few I tried but after that it dialed in pretty nicely. I got it second try vs Goh & never again vs any of the guys who require a delay.

I'll go for it in matches...what the hell...there's a Lion in my group. /versus/images/graemlins/grin.gif

 

an error in my statement about the wolf combo just to quickly correct, it's impossible to do after the catch ~ push, the reason why is that for some reason wolf always ends open stance no matter which way you start. it's gonna be a little more difficult to include into standard wolf games seeing as the combo's gotta be pulld off pretty much with no delays. it's a good starting setup tho, b+p has always been good with reach & speed.

i get the feeling sega was just trying to get on people's nerves,... /versus/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

 

now, if only b+p was mid XD

But, it's a pretty cool high move to have imo~
