Yeah, basically, keep pressure, keep balls flying around, and don't come in too much from the air if you're not covered (by hit/blockstun or knockdown or balls or something.) When you get pressure, keep it. Venom is probably Axl's worst matchup if you can keep on top of him.

That mixup happens too often in matches, dude. Well, I guess very few people actually successfully FD the fake Rashou into AA stuff, but still. I'd rather fill it with clashing than blockstrings/mixup sequences.

I've also been digging A Plague Upon Your Hissing (The Mars Volta) lately, but maybe we've had enough TMV combovids.

Technically, I don't think Axl would have time to do anything in the air after RC falling, since it puts him on the ground in some ludicrously low number of frames regardless of height.

But then again, I think it'd be more interesting if something else happened (Maybe to do with eddie clashing with the falling move. Could he do that with j.D?)

You may be able to do that with j.6P directly from the FRC (Rather than landing and doing 5P)

Heh, kinda like that, but I think with some (F)RCing, that exchange could be made longer, and possibly go the other way!

Lulz, is that absurdly famous, or just your personal favorite?

And that's fine? I'm not saying WE SHALL HAVE NO MORE COMBOS AND STOP NOW, BRIEF MORTALS. I'm expressing my personal opinion. And with the combo you just mentioned, I think I've been proven wrong, since it's definitely cool for doing over 300 damage with no guardbar (granted, it's full meter, but whatever, combovid.) I can't either. But I mean come on. Tokio Hotel? Really? There's gotta be some kinda limit to how lame the song can be, and I'm taking some initiative and saying certain things just don't make it to a vote. This still includes J-Rock/Pop. Yeah, let's definitely use that.

2H FRC --> Throw is seldom valid on max stagger (You'd have to like, hit him within throw range, FRC immediately, and throw, which I think won't work because of pushback unless it's a CH, which raises further objections), and prior Axl CMVs have made me somewhat scorn non-max-(or at least 3)-stagger-reliant combos. Stark, your combo seems a little too close to standard stuff to be combovid material. Honestly, I think we have enough combos, unless someone has something absurdly cool that we haven't thought of (either in this or in prior vids). What we need to do is get someone editing, get combos recorded, and pick a damn song already (Further note: I retain veto power for the music, barring like... 4/5ths majority overrule)

I'll stop you right now to say there's technically no such thing. You can make it very, very hard, but it'll never be completely unavoidable.

Wrote another paragraph on running versus not running. This stuff wins me matches, so check it out.

Hey, is anyone opposed to 65daysofstatic for music? I was thinking of "Retreat! Retreat!" or "Mean Low Water"

Note: I proposed that combo already and DID do a cooler ending (Granted, it didn't include the 2H FRC, but meh). See: 50+ hit potemkin combo.

Heh, it's always good to see new input, but yeah, most #R era stuff is gone, and Slash even moreso. Do you play AC?

+ (On tech) dj. Airthrow.

To be fair, that IS fairly unburstable. But it's also hella techable. Tell your friend he should watch some Ogawa or Niga or Shounen if he wants to see broek shit (Or tell him I'll money match him with Axl and pay out if I use the scary infinite). Besides, infinites are weak sauce. Zappa has an infinite and he's what, B tier at best?

Woah, you're definitely right.

A few short notes on previous comments: -Axl players probably shouldn't be relying on getting 63214S (cross-up move) against an EXE beast. It's really slow. -While what DoomieJ says is definitely true, don't get too confident about that collapse. There's always good, old-fashioned blocking to fall back on (But yeah, that's pretty much it as far as options at that point).

Well, not ANYthing... but a lot, yeah. Also laugh at the Axl player still trying to get that lame string off.

I may have posted this before, but I'm realizing more and more how good it is: Fucking learn to hitconfirm into benten. This is something I'm working on right now, and when I've gotten it right in matches, it does wonders for my game. I'm serious. With this, you can turn those random 5Ps or 2Ps that hit on the ground, those 3Ps and f.Ses that stop a run but don't counterhit, and those obnoxious f.Ses in the middle of a string into damage or knockdown. Benten will oftentimes combo when Rensen won't, and it will make you much more dangerous to learn how to make it work to your advantage.

To be perfectly accurate, this is where the blockstring ends.

Fixed that for ya.

Well, yeah. So I guess what we should really do is look at all those combos, see what the basic cool thing they're trying to show off is, and try to consolidate them by seeing if any of those things can be combined into single combos.

I actually meant the other one, or at least the principle of "Rensen (FRC) IAD j.D Rensen is a combo" Also: More song suggestions: Peace of Mind - Boston Plug in Baby - Muse
