[CT] Taokaka Combo & BnB Thread

[Sileh]

Hey again all, Been working on this combo all day: 5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> j.c -> j.236b -> j.2D~b -> 5c -> 2d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.236bb -> j.236bbbb (3667) Only thing weird about doing it is that when I do a j.2d~b -> 5c there is no way I'm getting in a 2d~6 after that. The other character is too close to the ground to follow up with a 2d~6, (practicing against Jin training dummy) so I'm throwing in a 5c -> 236cc instead and it's worked wonders. 5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> j.c -> j.236b -> j.2D~b -> 5c -> 236cc-> 2d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.236bb -> j.236bbb (3958) (more damage if you can squeeze one more hit while doing j.236bbb XD) Btw,any insights or tips to why I might not be hitting the original combo would be awesome. I know I asked a question on this combo a few pages back, but this is a different issue

When I was first learning the combo, I found that I was not properly timing the b cancel for j.2d~b. Same holds true for most other combos that involve b cancels. The timing for the 5c once you land on the ground isn't too lenient, but it is not bad at all. I hit 5c almost immediately after I hit b for the drive cancel. Edit: Also make sure you land j.c after 5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 as high as you can, the lower you are, the harder it is to land the rest of the combo.

Hey everybody, First post. ^_^ I've been working on this combo for awhile: 5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> (j.c -> 5d~6) x3 -> j.a -> j.c -> j.c -> j.c -> j.236bbbb I get to the j.c -> j.c -> j.c part and I drop them everytime. Any advice?

EDIT: Oops. This is Icege. I'm on my buddy's laptop

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but it's infinitely easier (at least for me) to hit and hold B when going for Taunt combos. By that I mean:

B-6A(1)->JC, j.3D~, S->236CC->[3]D, j.C-[8]D, dj.C-[8]D, tj.236BBBB

I remember a friend mentioning something about holding down a button in BB making it so that it inputs that button for 5f. I don't know. I've been sitting here for over an hour trying to land Taunt combos and suddenly started getting a lot more consistent with them when I held B. Not just consistent from practice, but it felt like it was much more reliable that way.

A question I have though: I have a lot of difficulty with connecting 236BB, 236BBBB at the end of combos. I've actually gotten it a few times when accidentally doing 3 slashes. Am I going to want to end it at 2 and then do another set, or am I trying to get them to a certain height with the first set of scratches?

Hey everybody, First post. ^_^

I've been working on this combo for awhile:

5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> (j.c -> 5d~6) x3 -> j.a -> j.c -> j.c -> j.c -> j.236bbbb

I get to the j.c -> j.c -> j.c part and I drop them everytime.

Any advice?

What character are you trying it on?

[x Eternal Echo]

What character are you trying it on?

I practice on Tager or Ragna.

[yukichi]

I can only ever really get j.c -> 5d~6 to work 2 times, (3 on Tager), and after j.a -> j.c the only thing that really works is j.8d~6. 5b -> 3 -> 5d~6 -> j.c -> 5d~6 doesn't work against Noel and Rachel, (Tao too I think),

[AsterLudkweiz]

I'm having trouble with the drive loop off of 3C. I get the first loop but the she drives over them. Any help?

[yukichi]

For Tager I like using 5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> ( j.c ~ j.5d~6 ) x3 -> j.a -> j.c -> j.8d~6 x2 -> j.236bb -> j.236bbb (3672 damage) It's easy and doesn't require much timing. Ragna you have to omit a j.8d~6 as he seems to tech out of it everytime for me, but you get similar results. As for drive loops off 3c, if you want it to work for all characters you have to use 5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> j.c -> j.236b -> j.2d~b variation or 5b -> 3c -> 5d~b (making the 5d hit) -> 5b -> 5c (sometimes have to omit 5c based on character) -> 2d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.236bb -> j.c -> j.8d~6 -> j.236bbbb or 5b -> 3c -> 5d~b (do b drive cancel early so you can off the ground the opponent) -> 5b -> 5c -> 2d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.236bb -> j.c -> j.8d~6 -> j.236bbbb

So the whole combo would look like this:

5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> (j.c -> 5d~6) x2 -> j.a -> j.c -> j.8d~6 -> ???

Edit: Nevermind I didn't see your other post, sorry!

Thanks.

A question I have though: I have a lot of difficulty with connecting 236BB, 236BBBB at the end of combos. I've actually gotten it a few times when accidentally doing 3 slashes. Am I going to want to end it at 2 and then do another set, or am I trying to get them to a certain height with the first set of scratches?

The trick to doing this, which i figured out by myself by accident is to NOT do the first 236BB immediately after the last 9d~9, wait a very short moment before u do the FIRST 236bb this will cause them to be at a higher level compared to you then after hte second slash wait a tiny bit and do 236BBBB

and to everyone else, j.a -> j.c >jump > j.c >jump > j.c is admittedly very hard timing but ull get it after practice. if you're having trouble with the drive loop off of 3c have you learned the drive loop off back throw? if not i suggest learning that. oh and no mashing c to do the j.c's :p

[Class Real]

Hey guys, thanks for the help so far. I've been practicing 5b -> 6a -> 236aa x n -> 2d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.c -> 236bb -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> 236bbb lately and I can hit it perfectly about half the time, the other half though, the CPU (Set to Neutral Aerial Roll) always seems to roll away after 236bb -> j.c, right before 8d~6. I know I must be timing it wrong, but I can't seem to pinpoint it, anyone know?

Thanks, I'll start practicing it!

I'm finding myself loving her Please Help Me! super as an anti-air. Especially since it gives her an actual threatening option to anti-air with because of the damage output. I started practicing hitting:

214214C, S->236AA->[3]D, j.C-[8]D, dj.C-[8]D, tj.236BBBB

I landed it a few times tonight to keep people off of me when they started doing the jump back, air dash forward before landing nonsense when trying to escape pressure.

[vietxmikey]

I was just messing around but would this be a valid combo. 5a -> 5b -> Rapid Cancel -> 4b+c -> 236cc -> 2d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> 236bbbb(2427)

5a -> 5b -> Rapid Cancel -> 4b+c -> 236cc -> 2d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> j.c -> 8d~6 -> 236bbbb(2427)

umm you can break the throw, but it seems like it makes sense.

[vietxmikey]

Hmm, you have a point there. But don't you think it might be a surprise for them? How much time do you exactly have to break the throws in this game? :o

[Avion]

I don't think 50 meter is worth 2427 damage you might as well just do 5b -> 236236 D

[XDest]

You know, I think doing 41236 for Cat Spirit Two is better in a lot of combos, lets you get the buffering time perfect, instead of doing the quarter circle during the recovery and doing no input. Sure, you can delay, but the rest of those types of combos have no delay, and it throws me off. Just a tip.

[RinHara5aki]

A couple combo's.

Sorry, but when you say the video references numbers in the bottom corner, where are they referencing to? I see no page on dustloop with reference numbers that correlate to the video.

Oh sorry D: I meant like if someone were to ask about a certain combo, then they wouldn't need to ask "The fourth one" or something.

Maybe I should just make an inputs thread specifically for the video's.....

Btw... REAL SOVIET DAMAGE!! XDD

[Sileh]

I think that would save Tao's followers some time. It might be easier for Taoftw to edit his BnB combo thread, but either way it would help

Example:

(Advanced Movie, #1 Combo) 5b -> 3c -> 5d~6 -> (j.c -> 5d~6) x3 -> j.a -> j.c -> j.c -> j.c -> j.236bbbb*

*Note this is an example don't try it and say, "WHAT THE HELl THIS ISNT THAT COMBO!!"

Edit: Tager's backdash is invincible for longer than hangover!

[RinHara5aki]

Yeah it would, I'll see what we can do to get the inputs going >:3 I'm sure TaoFTW and I can organize it. It sounds very time consuming though, since Advanced has like 14 long combo's, and Intermediate has 21 different combo's as well :/

Good idea though >:D

[XDest]

I'm going to be uploading single combos to youtube. Each will have an easy to read input and timing.

They will consist purely of combos from the first post of this thread.

For example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MqtqTDtDddg&fmt=18 .

Do you guys want me to do more?

Edit: Ugh, my capture card lags way too much to do any air combos normally. Rin & TaoFTW, can you help me gather up single combos to upload?

[Sileh]

Yes, XDest, more combos would be awesome. One combo like that is one small step for nyan one giant leap for nyankind! Ok that was lame
