I need a better combo but my execution isn't that great
« on: November 02, 2010, 09:39:23 AM »
Hey so I like playing H-Roa and the combo I've been doing is 2A 2B 5C 2C 5B j.A j.B j.C dj.B dj.C throw.
It's got ok damage (3468) and is meterless, but I've seen match vids of Roa's (not sure which style) doing a lot more damage. Just wondering if anybody could give me some tips.

^_^ Thanks!

Combos and Strategies

Meterless
2A 5B 2B 5C(1hit) 6AAA 2C 6C jBC djBC throw: 4278 damage on VSion
Notes: You can't open this combo with 5A (or at least I can't get it to work). If you open the combo with 5A it will NOT let you do the 6AAA sequence (again, prove me wrong...). You have to wait a second after the 6AAA to 2C.

2A 5B 2B 5C(1hit) 6AAA 6[C] 214A jBC djBC throw: 4851 damage on VSion
Notes: Same note about opening with 5A as before. The timing after 214A is strict. There is a miniscule pause between the 6[C] and the 214A - if you don't put it there, you MAY need to sjc to get high enough to air combo.

Combos with oki
2A 5B 2B 5C(1hit) 6AAA 6[C] 236A/C

2A 5B 2B 5C(1hit) 6AAA 6[C] 41236C (Requires Heat)

2A 5B 2B 5C(1hit) 6AAA 6[C] 236A 214C(otg) 41236C (Midscreen, requires Heat)

Basically, if 214C hits otg while you're in heat mode, you've just won a free AD.

Aerial Counterhit
2C 6C j.BC dj.BC airthrow


Right off the wiki

Just keep working at them, you'll get them eventually
They can't get enough of me

I was definitely not getting the first combo to do 4200 damage. Though I was opening with 5A, and putting in 2A in place of 6A... apparently I read the combo wrong in the H-Roa thread. ??? At any rate I was getting it to work just fine with 2A instead of 6A because I read it wrong lol.

The second combo is a little to tight for me, as I said my execution isn't amazing and I mean I just learned that there was a 214D like a couple weeks ago. (been playing since ReACT FT)

At any rate the combo I've been doing is 5A 5B 2B 5C (2 hits) 2C 6C j.BC dj.BC airthrow. It does almost 3900 damage, which I know is like nothing for you guys, but I'm just starting out, so I think I'll be sticking with this as my BnB until I can get some of the trickier combos down consistently.

If your execution isn't good, just practice.

The Ghetto BnB is:

2A 2B 5B 5C 2C 6C j.BC dj.BC airthrow

if you're good you can do this:

2A 2B 5B 5C 2C 6C j.BC j.236B dj. BC airthrow

or this:

2A 2B 5B 5C(1 hit) 6AAA 2C 6C j.BC dj.BC airthrow

This is the optimal damage knockdown BnB:

2A 2B 5B 5C(1 hit) 6AAA 6[C] 236A

And the optimal damage BnB is:

2A 2B 5B 5C(1 hit) 6AAA 6[C] delay 214B j.BC dj.BC airthrow

but it requires a bit of practice.
Combos so bright I gotta wear shades.

yeah I got the regular bnb down now. It's actually a lot easier than I thought.
