    Hey all. I am new to virtua fighter five and I have the basics down and all but I need help on some basic combo set ups. Like I always do the 33k and they of course guard it and I get thrown. Does anyone have any series or advice I could have?

    There are three general ways to get launchers to connect:

    1. In guaranteed situations, such as after you block an opponent's low sweep

    2. Reverse nitaku situations where you anticipate that the opponent will throw you (and it is not a clashable situation)

    3. When you have the advantage but you think the opponent will attack back (usually with /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif or /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/d.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif). One common example is when your /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif counter hits; /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif is a legitimate choice afterward. Be sure to rotate the launcher with throws after a counter hit elbow so that the opponent is conditioned to attack back

    Something I use alot that Ice did not list is when your opponent whiffs something.

    Like you use a backdash to force a whiff and depending on the attack you can punish with beat knuckle /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif high angle kick /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif heel drop /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/g.gif or Bil Jee /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/b.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/f.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif+/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif

    You can also get these results by trying out shuffle step tools like SS /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif, SS /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/k.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/g.gif(on hit frame), and SS /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/df.gif/forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/p.gif
