Don't worry about me not posting many videos recently, there just hasn't been much to post. Gotta wait for Amazon to send me my version of Extend, apparently it'll be here Friday, can't wait.

Yeah, really wonder why he did that... ---------------------------------------------- 2/11/12 BBCS:EX Kakario Sanshou Part 2 of 2 [hikage] Hakumen vs Taokaka Very close match.

2/10/12 BBCS:EX Nakamurabashi Fun Factory Random 2on2 Part 3 of 4 (2/2) [A-92] Hakumen vs Bang Wasn't this the Hakumen who got into SBO back in CSII? Unless it's not A-92 and just someone using his name *looks at Buppa using R-1 as his name.

I'm pretty sure the segment in the middle was detailing the character specific timings on how to do that throw combo, since you could not in CSII, and apparently still cannot in CSE, auto pilot that combo. The combo requires that the second hit of Renka whiff, and in order to achieve that, you have to do some funky stuff for certain characters. It is definitely helpful since that 2 magatama combo gives you nearly as much damage as the 3 magatama (only 200-300 less in CSII) for one less magatama.

BBCS:EX Hakumen Combo Tutorial This has some hilarious stuff in it. If you can, watch the Nico Nico Douga version, the music is funnier in that version.

Pretty sure he's just IAD-ing too slow. The dashing through the opponent but whiffing J.2a is what happens if you do it too slow. If you IAD as soon as you are in the air, you should still dash through the opponent, but J.2a will land.

Shouldn't you just call it a "full" Renka, since you aren't canceling Renka but letting the move run to completion? Or you could just call it Renka(2). Calling it a double Renka made me think you were doing two Renka's in one combo @__@ .

The stuff I missed: 1/29/12 BBCS:EX Central Hachiouji 3on3 Part 3 of 8 [Mokeo 3] Hakumen vs Lamda 1/29/12 BBCS:EX Central Hachiouji 3on3 Part 3 of 8 [udonge] Hakumen vs Jin 1/29/12 BBCS:EX Central Hachiouji 3on3 Part 3 of 8 [udonge] Hakumen vs Tager There's a Hakumen mirror match as well, but I don't think that needs to be posted.

Whoops, missed some videos: 1/14/12 BBCS:EX Rin Rin 24 [FT] Hakumen vs Bang 1/14/12 BBCS:EX Rin Rin 24 [FT] Hakumen vs Arakune 1/14/12 BBCS:EX Fujisawa Fanfan Random 3on3 Part 3 of 5 [chyokoteppaban (?)

I think one of the problems with Zantetsu is that you pretty much have to spend 4 magatama to get a good combo off of it (midscreen you need to do Gurren to follow it up, and in corner you should use Kishuu to get the second repetition of the corner loop, if you don't then you pretty much have to be in their face to get the second repetition). It's hard to justify the use of Zantetsu when other stuff that use the same amount of magatama or less do more damage. So yeah, I'm pretty sure you'll only be using it as an odd mixup thing here and there.

This part is addressing the J.2a -> J.5c stuff. This part is addressing the corner combo stuff. I split dioxideUniversa's answer into two parts to better clarify which one addressed which question, hope you don't mind dioxideUniversa. They've basically said what I would say. To answer your first question, you mainly need to play around with the timing that you execute moves. Do it early, do it late, see what happens, go from there. When the J.5c whiffs, it's due to either you or your opponent falling too fast. Sometimes there are things you can do to prevent that, sometimes there aren't. This is one of those things that just messing around in Training Mode solves. As for your second question: (0) (Back)Throw -> 2c -> SJ.2a -> J.2c -> 2c -> SJ.2a -> DELAY J.2a -> AD J.2a -> J.5c -> 5c -> 3c [3130/2] is basically the first combo that dioxideUniversa showed. I would recommend starting with this one. After you have this one down, you just need to tack on a different starter and loop one part of it and bam, every other corner combo learned.

Now that you mention it, I remember seeing this happen at times too.

There are times where opponents will be able to tech after a wallslam 6a due to proration and/or starter.

You can do it.

He switched to Taokaka in Extend.

Rest assured, the more recent stuff and stuff I'll post from now on will be Hakumen's that I believe have a good idea of what they're doing.

Do you mean J.2a -> J.5c ? If so then it's simply doing it soon after you do J.2a, no reason to delay it too much or anything. If you mean J.5c -> 5c, then that's corner only.

Well, you're gaining magatama as you stand around in neutral, so you don't necessarily have to go do pressure. If you want to do midscreen pressure, I'd assume going for frame traps would serve you best, considering Hakumen doesn't really have good high-low mixup. That's probably just more practice and staying on top of the situation. If you're talking about in the neutral game or pressure, then definitely creatively. If you're talking about in combos, you should probably stick with the combos that have already been discovered. Don't worry about it, Hakumen isn't exactly the easiest character to pick up and learn.

Not sure I hear it, but I'll trust your hearing/ability to make out Japanese.

Punish dumb stuff all day, everyday >:3 .

Wait, Green Burst? Not Gold Burst?
