    Fortune Technology: Resets, Mixups, etc.

    Head on Fortune has a burst bait that beats mashing/specific scenarios that I will explain later: (normal that triggers burst) s.hp (kara) headroll The invincibility goes through the burst and if it doesn't you can cancel into super right before the iframes are done. It's a really really good...

    Winning without combos?

    Actually you do need quite a few hours to understand the way combos work in this game if you've never played anything like it. I could reliably do 1 and 2 frame links in sf4 before playing this game, but learning how chains work took some effort. Combos in sf4 are very rigid and focused on...

    Winning without combos?

    Really tight set ups and resets and coordinated assist calls are as hard as combos in this game. If you can't combo you probably don't have any dirty resets. Just spend 20 hours learning how to combo in this game and you're good to go. Also here is a really good reason to know combos, punishes...

    Fortune Combos

    Could you tell those of us too lazy to make a nico account what that is? shit nevermind forgot i made one, this video makes me feel a little bad for big band, guess he just blocks high all day. (or mashes super).

    Fortune Combos

    I keep hitting ips after j.hp in the lk fiber chain, the j.lp chain is in ips 3 so it starts tracking j.hp there. edit: and even when I take ips trigger off I'm still only getting 8272 damage in 2v2. Where you doing it 2v3? It does 10762 with damage multiplier 1.30. Alternatively, if you were...

    Zid keeps rocks in his pockets at all times for just such an occasion.

    Fortune Combos

    Aren't those combos just throw, feral edge, sneeze, headless shit? On a related note, is it possible to get the head to restand after the feral edge xx sneeze or am I just bad? I always feel like the head recovers from sneeze right as they hit the ground.

    Midscreen Assist Kill Combos

    I feel obligated to necro this thread because more people should learn these.

    Counter Full-screen Giant Step?

    It probably counts as a hit grab. A better question: Why would you think you need to counter full-screen giant step?

    Fortune and teams?

    HP napalm shot is actually really useful for space control because hitting the opponent doesn't remove the tear, and the speed at which it is shot means that it will be stationary on the screen for a longer time than lp. I think wing uses it and it makes his filia that much more annoying to deal...

    Valentine Tech Thread: Small/Big Tips & Strategy YOU Notice?

    Val has really bad assist options, I suggest using cr.mk. It have decent range and gives you a low hitting assist. That's the best she has.

    Fortune and teams?

    Fortune/filia/double is still #bestteam. Though team duck is a really strong contender for that position. X/fortune/bella is also good. I think fiber is a pain to confirm with and the angle is pretty meh, it's still her best assist because AC is so sexy.

    Valentine Combo Thread

    Again, part of a reset is them having the ability to get out. You risk them holding up back, but you also risk that when doing an overhead or doing a throw. There is a disadvantage to any reset, we don't want this to be a single player game. Another example of a super bait is ending an airchain...

    Valentine Combo Thread

    Your point about saving enders for kills is correct. Your point about not having situational combos is less so, and for reasons I believe you will agree with. You should learn character specific combos and vial combos because they change the attack timings and give different reset points than...

    Valentine Combo Thread

    It's not hard to find combos in here, every new combo or assist corner combo doesn't need to be slapped in the op, I've already put in more effort than 90% of the other combo thread starters. Maybe I'll put the notation in later but I am under no obligation to do so. Maybe if we had optimized...

    The Hype, Impractical, and Impossible Combos Thread

    I think the pulsr combo counts as being impractical now. Also fortune has j.hp xx headspike combos still but they have to happen on the exact frame when the opponent lands.
