2A air CH can also be followed with 6A. Since none of those options combo after 2A if it isn't a CH, 6A is your best bet since if it's blocked you can jump or even 2C...IMO...

Looking at your new combo video, how much damage are you able to squeeze out of a combo when you replace:

...AC, ACwhiff, 6B > 2C AC with

...AC [RC] 4D, 5C > 6A > 2C > AC

Unless you're going for a flashy finishing combo, it just doesn't seem worth it.

The 4D whiff into 5C etc combo gets about 400 more DMG if I'm remembering right. Normal one does about 3600 and the 4D one does a little over 4k. So not much but hey, if you wanna show off, you can:keke:

So in every case, wouldn't the usual AC whiff, 6B magnatech wheel lead to better damage?

Hey guys for Hakumen I have been doing throw AC into j.c Jb 5c AC, then Egadget I can't seem to get the second AC on Bang and I saw Akira do 6A but that wiffs for me also..... this is all w/o magnetism. Also I saw akira do this combo on Jin but I can't even get the j.b to hit any help please :sweatdrop:

Hakumen is one of the very few characters this can hit without walking forward, but he can't be it by the 6A, to get the 6A on bang you have to walk forward quite a bit before you jump. It's kinda tight.

It's just something silly, it isn't actually supposed to be used as a bnb. Not only would MTW do more damage, but if you did AC whiff 6C J.2C 2B 2C AC etc you get 4k anyway making the extra damage pretty much non existent.

Tager's character rate makes RCs for damage almost impossible.

Yes. It's just cool looking - at this point, since BB is so simplified and Tager has so much hitstun scaling, I highly doubt anything more damaging can be found.

Also, IIRC skipping the 6B is more dmg.

Posted

Skipping the 6B is more damage, -if- you follow up with terrabreak. If you're just doing MTW, the 6B in there adds about...50 dmg or so, a bit of heat and the opportunity to burst.

Posted

Actually, it doesn't add an opportunity to burst I think, if they burst the guardpoint takes it and they get a MTW reset instead.

Posted

Yeah, that's what I meant. It's allowing them to burst, I didn't say the burst would work. >.>

Straight AC whiff > MTW is unburstable, but if you add the 6B (and slightly delay the MTW activation on it) it can sucker people into wasting a burst and eating more damage than they otherwise would have.

360A>2B>2C>623C>623C whiff>6B>2C>623C

This combo only works in the corner and when your opponent is magnetized.

Mike actually did something like this in his gimmicks video which I decided to take and adopt for myself.

Its great for many reasons, lets go over them shall we:

1. Does 4.1k in the corner

2. You still leave your opponent in the corner.

3. You didn't need to use spark to do it.

4. You can use MTW instead of 6B>2C>623C to get 5.4k out of this.

Most note worthy thing is that you cannot 6B>MTW or they can tech it.

I doubt this is new or anything, but I found an interesting alternative to:

2D (RC) -> 6a -> 2C -> Collider -> whatever

or

2D (RC) -> 6A -> 3C -> 2B -> 2C -> Collider

Instead, it's easier and more damaging to do:

2D (RC) -> 6C -> collider -> collider whiff -> 6B -> 2C -> EGadget/BGadget/Whatever you want

Only tested on Tsubaki

Edit: Scratch that, it's more damage to do 6A->2C, but it's harder and you have to have good spacing

Flashing back to the last time this came up, as a general rule for people to remember, 6C has 1 or 2% worse proration than 6A>2C. Also to help with the spacing issue, MikeZ reminded people that if you wait a little before you RC Tager's 2D moves closer to them with enough time to still 6A.

Then why don't I see more of it?

I mean, that's more damage than his normal bnb without the need for magnetism...

Is there something I'm missing other than that it's a bit difficult to pull off?

With the corner, I understand that your goal is to keep them in the corner, but as for the midscreen thing.....is there a better combo off of a throw?

Sorry for all the questions.....I'm just rather curious.

Posted

You don't see more of it because it only works against most of the cast in the corner, and doing it takes them out of the corner. Plus it's kinda finnicky midscreen even on those it works on.

Posted

Works midscreen on: Bang, Rachel, Hakumen.

Works midscreen but slightly harder: Ragna, Jin, Taokaka.

Works midscreen but you should use j.c whiff > j.2c > 2B > collider: Tager, Arakune.

Um, here is a combo that is unnecesarily long: (100% Heat)

2B/6C/5BC>Collider>BSledge>(RC)2C>Collider>BSledge>22D>5BC>Collider>Spark Bolt>

[2B>]2C>Collider>Collider (Whiff)>2B>2C>Collider>Collider Whiff>22D>360B>22D>720C.

You can pretty much make yourself a sandwich if you get caught in this combo.

Posted

How is it not? The game picks it up as a combo, unless it doesn't count as one if you get a Purple "!!" on 360/720s and grabs.
