im more curious to see the pro’s and cons of using cr.fp xx rh legs>mk legs>sweep/ loop
vs the stomp punish.
namely whether the tradeoff in damage is significant enough to balance of the massive stun from the first combo
Thats not an easy plink, especially if its pinky to ring finger. And what if it’s not the case? I’d like to think desk pays attention to his inputs, and he would notice that that is what is actually happening. He has made no indication that is what is happening so all i can do is gather from what he says. It’s certainly possible, but I just think that would be weird that he didn’t notice it. But if that IS what is happening then he is hitting those buttons faster than I thought and I’ll be wishing I took up guitar. yeesh.
I’m just saying I don’t think desk’s way is the end all be all way to do this combo, because when I look at the video description, and this is just me, but it seems to me it took a bit out of him, judging from this sentence “I doubt I’ll be trying again for a few weeks or ever”
So if Sako is doing it this way, then power to him, his fingers are like machines, and it definitely is the cleanest way to it, but for me i can tell it’s gonna be a loong time for I can get the single cr. fp into legs with this method…so I’m just saying it would benefit us to try different ways (maybe easier on the hand) to get that plink out. I feel its definitely doable. I found a couple of ways already, and I think with some persistance I can get there.
And Pardon me, your first post come off as talking down to me, all I did was point that out. I didn’t insult you, or pour sugar in your gas tank, you really think this name calling and general passive aggressive attitude is necessary, or helpful to this conversation in anyway?
You can’t plink HP with HK because HK has input priority over HP.
No, Raiden is right you can plink Hp~Hk. It’s harder tho (for me anyway). Like I have to be more aware about it doing than say, Fp~Lp, cause half the time I Accidentally do HK~HP sometimes. It’s not the most comfortable plink, thats for sure.
Check out skatans method. I’ve been primarily trying to practice this method but it looks like it’ll be a pet project for a while to come. I’m not even close to getting hk legs out on time.
Sorry for calling you a dink. I was kinda drunk when I wrote that. I’m all sober now tho!
Yeah, Skatan is pretty sick, but I’m having better luck with Desk’s piano, lol.
I do get another legs out when I plink C. mp, C.hp, then slide my ring finger down to hk, then slide said ring finger to slide sweep the legs buttons. Problem is if your fingers spazz you could get an accidental focus cancel which suuuuucks.
So I’m trying to get my pointer on the LP and ring finger on FP and plink that. Which does work but the plinking isn’t coming out as much, but I think it’s just my hand needing to get used to the plink to ring finger slide. And its a little better cause if you fuck up worst case scenario you get a jab into legs lol. I can’t tell you how giddy I get when I get a second c fp legs link, and how enraged I get when it screws up. AAAH growing pains.
EDIT: I’m going to get carpal tunnel in my right hand by the end of the month arn’t I?
Well i know its not much to write home about, but i finally hit my first on reaction dash up ultra1 against a sim player yesterday and im pretty happy about it.
Raiden: How can you plink hp~hp+hk, and get two hp’s, hk has more priority than hp so it should be hp>hk coming out not hp>hp.
I’ve used this plink a bit since if you time it right you get c.hp x legs, and if you fail you atleast get c.hk for the knockdown.
The only way I know to plink it and that’s just two motions is c.hp~hp+mk~lk, lk~mk~hk.
Hey skatan, how are you hitting the loop so consistently? is your execution just off the charts or are you plinking the cr.hp somehow?

Off topic/clear, derogatory insult of other users/flame bait/harassment/abuse of power
You can plink it, I use strong to plink it with, however my issue is a negative edge one I focus cancel like 50 percent of the time after the cr.fierce in the loop cos as I slide down I’m catching forward and strong together… Its pretty frustrating so much so that I think I’m just gonna stick to simple version and not go for the loop anymore 
thanks man i’ll give that a shot when i get home.
my concern is that since i use the slide method for cr.fp>legs if i’ll be able to link the second set no problem.
may just compromise with mk sbk tho. still stylish
I use this exact plinking method, though, I actually start the slide from hk, so I avoid the focus being executed. I have used it with a lot of success and will attempt it at every opportunity I get.
Not as elegantly used as Skatan, but just showing that piano-ing is not the only way to achieve the loop.

LOL yeah I slide as well and I plink it cos of you Gunslinger if you remember (I asked you about it 
)…
Using SBK instead sounds a good option for my executional errors tbf
If you want to plink and slide you can always do c.hp, hp+mk~lk, lk~mk~hk.
Just slide past lk and back again.
Ahh you’ll have to forgive my lazy reading Wii. I quoted you without even looking at who posted lol
im sliding the loop but im going to give what skatan said a go would be easier than just hitting it raw although my success rate has gone up to about 60-70% from about 0%
im having alot less joy from trying to do legs>u1 mind you
i hope after i speed all this time learning this stuff it isnt removed from the game like akumas loop
Speaking of the loop combo, just another option if someone just wanted to flash and see how many legs a person can get in one string without looping:
cr.hp xx hk legs - mk legs > lk legs > EX legs x2 into whatever you want.
My new OMG LEGS combo without the cr.hp loop.
c.lp, cl.mp (1) x legs, c.hk
c.lp, cl.mp (1) x legs, c.hp x legs, c.hk (character specific)
Figured out a way to get cl.mp x legs out consistently, unfortunately it’s only viable after something like c.lp.
i managed to get 1 rep of the cr. fierce xx legs combo using a slide method (cr. fierce~roundhouse~forward~short~forward~roundhouse, mash forward), but I’m having problems just linking another fierce after the legs. If any one here does both the slide and piano method, which one do you think is easier to do?
