Shinobi Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 Possibly the best Ragna combo video I've seen thus far: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZup5KL7U7A&feature=sub Shows some nasty things that can be done with Blood Kain. And LOL@Gauntlet Hades loop in BK on Tao. Amazing.
Matt Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 I know I should not be posting in the Ragna forum since I don't main Ragna, but this video is so awesome I thought that it would be alright this one time- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jLDflxlK64. (It does include midcombo throws, but I'm guessing that they were just added in to make the video look cool.)
Gateofdestiny Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 some recent matches I had. I gotten a bit better. I can land some ground combos okay, still working on landing air combos more accurately. I seem to have a habit of doing empty hells fang when i'm on the other side of the screen because I'm not sure of how to approach safer, so I am trying to work on running-shield or air-dash->shield, but still not sure how to properly make use of it. GoD (Ragna) vs Micha (Noel) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfZhQmYaeMc GoD (Ragna) vs Micha (Noel) 3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bS6J6ctdfRk GoD (Ragna) vs Rip (Jin) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8b9zcFx6zG8 (yea lol at the empty blood kain from across the screen)
steve0 Posted September 8, 2009 Posted September 8, 2009 Possibly the best Ragna combo video I've seen thus far: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZup5KL7U7A&feature=sub Shows some nasty things that can be done with Blood Kain. And LOL@Gauntlet Hades loop in BK on Tao. Best part of the video was from 0:00 to 5:14. I loved it. Yes, this is the best Ragna combo video I've seen so far also. There are other good ones out there but this one is just insane! I can't wait to try out some of these combos!! ... that is... if I can execute them... which I highly doubt. Anyway, it was very inspirational, props to the creator.
Aureliano Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 GateOfDestiny, you seriously use your barrier way too much.
Gateofdestiny Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 when shouldn't I be using barrier guard? as long as its not close to danger status, I don't really see why I would do a regular guard instead of barrier.
Kicks Posted September 9, 2009 Posted September 9, 2009 Longer blockstun, cruddy burst, risk running out then you can't airblock easily.
Kain Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 I think shit just got real up in here... Also, on not using barrier guard over regular: Most of the time you'll find you won't even need it. If you're smart, you can use all that barrier stored up to unleash a Instant Burst to put them in the corner and have your fun with them, assuming you know what the hell to do when you put them in this situation. Also, Barrier sometimes pushes your opponent too far away to counterattack if they had you in a blockstring and you want to end it before it gets nasty, along with the fact that with a lower Barrier gauge, your start-up frames for Barrier Burst increase, and to extreme levels, it's easily avoided if your opponent isn't in RTSD mentality. (or so I'm led to believe)
Gateofdestiny Posted September 10, 2009 Posted September 10, 2009 i see. Didn't know barrier increases block stun. So then when should I use barrier then? I know in the air to avoid the anti-air moves. But how about ground combo strings?
sum1 Posted September 11, 2009 Posted September 11, 2009 Are the combos in the tetsu vid efficient or are simply there to show off you know this stuff?
VR-Raiden Posted September 11, 2009 Posted September 11, 2009 Are the combos in the tetsu vid efficient or are simply there to show off you know this stuff? All the Blood Kain combos seemed practical, but I rarely even use Blood Kain combos so I wouldn't know really. I don't think Blood Kain combos are practical almost at all anyway though. as for non-BK combos, the only new ones worth doing are the combo at 0:53 (if they don't throw break ever) and 2:45.
Mayu Posted September 12, 2009 Posted September 12, 2009 Are the combos in the tetsu vid efficient or are simply there to show off you know this stuff? Its 98% show off stuff. The other 2% could be useful if you actually can execute it.
Kicks Posted September 16, 2009 Posted September 16, 2009 i see. Didn't know barrier increases block stun. So then when should I use barrier then? I know in the air to avoid the anti-air moves. But how about ground combo strings? Better pushback and no guard libra damage. Basically you gotta get used to the character and the player you're fighting against. Combining it with instant block you can make people whiff attack strings and you can easily counter attack. But if someone knows you're going to barrier block, they're going to air dash or poke with quick attacks because they won't get pushed back and get inside on you. The extra block stun allows for people to chain into their overheads way more safely as long as the pushback doesn't affect them too bad.
sum1 Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 @Raiden and Mayu: Bah screw it then. Reminds me of the #Reload days when I was trying to learn dustloop while relying on a retarded-for-show-only combo vid. lol nostalgia.
lars Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 hmmmm ok i did have a quick try some times ago and it didn't work i think i have to try harder probably.... good to know thanks
Yaotzin Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I found this match with kanq and nu. Noticed that we lack some of those http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lGcL-Dl5eCQ
Mayu Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 @Raiden and Mayu: Bah screw it then. Reminds me of the #Reload days when I was trying to learn dustloop while relying on a retarded-for-show-only combo vid. lol nostalgia. Ironically, a combo video called nostalgia was my favorite #reload video ever.
VR-Raiden Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGOmrBgmBNk&feature=sub New combo vid, has some pretty cool stuff. Weird music choices though
TITANIUM BEAST!!! Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 Wow, I actually like that vid more than Onslaught, more stuff that can be applied in a practical manner.
Final Ultima Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 Mhmm, indeed. Added to the list. Still, I think my brain melted a little while I was watching.
RZSeven Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 That was a pretty sweet video! Lots of cool things to try out~ Though the ending encapsulates the reason I hate Tager... D:
arctus32 Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 So random yet good O_o I should make a combo vid like this XD and yes BS 360720 Tagers are annoying, yet beatable -_-;
LM_Akira Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 lol the pushback from the Tager corner combo was insane. Also I'd never thought of using sweep into 22C from D ID.
Final Ultima Posted September 21, 2009 Posted September 21, 2009 I've tried out a lot of these combos, and it's gotta be said, even a lot of the ones that look practical are pretty balls-hard to time. It allowed me to boost the strength of the max damage combo I had in the combo list though (8124 -> 8331) along with every other variant of the j.D loop, so that's a plus.
VR-Raiden Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XLLIdK0RuM Another new combo vid with some cool stuff.
