I knew about it on Viper, but not the others. Combine with the right assist for the most evil cross-up ever.

I don’t think it actually counts as a cross-up.

I don’t know if it’s known yet, but there is a very easy way to DHC into anything from the BnB with Taskmaster.
Basically, instead of the final j.S, go into downward Legion arrow, and from there, you can DHC into pretty much anything, as long as you cancel before the last few arrows hit (while they are in the air, or right before he fires the last one).
The BnB deals about 720k on its own, using this to DHC into Sentinel’s qcf hyper, you get 840-860k.
The BnB deals 686k if it crosses under, and this still deals 840-860k.
It deals roughly 1M+ if you DHC something else after that. Or 1.2M if you DHC into a level 3 (if you somehow have 5 bars to spend with 3 characters left :slight_smile:

bout the Taskmaster "slide through"
Does it work if they’re blocking? What about if they are crouching? Cuz if it works Blocking or crouching then it can set up some nasty things.

Or, you could keep the final j.S, then jump and shoot three down arrows and cancel into j.qcf+LH.

It depends on the character.

I know its character dependent, but can it still work on said characters if they are blocking or crouching?

Whenever I try to DHC after doing that, it whiffs. Sometimes, very rarely, it will connect, usually if I DHC early, but it doesn’t seem reliable at all, and the damage sucks.
Plus, if it slides through, you can’t even begin to DHC into most hypers.

You’re doing it wrong. You have to do a late j.qcf+H (3 arrows). This will pop the opponent into the air and give you the chance to connect with all the j.qcf+LH hits. This will also allow you to DHC into hypers with fast start-up.

Hmmm… I might have been trying that when I still jumped forward in the corner with a TKarrow, and the third arrow is the one missing in that spot. It does make a lot of sense though, and neutral jumping is actually easier.
Oh well, at least it’s not a complete waste, it’s still useful if you do accidentally switch sides :wink:
Thanks.

Trying out Taskmaster because I play Wesker and they both have counter moves, except Wesker can combo off of all of his counters, but Taskmaster cannot unless they land in the corner. Am I wrong? Is it possible to combo off of any counter with Taskmaster when they land far away?

You should be able to jump and do qcf+LH super.

can anyone verify this? i was just thinking that task doesnt really have anything to make his counters scary like my boy wesker does

I know you can do it off of his Hyper counter, and that is the only counter that matters. If you’re using his normal counters, then you are taking unnecessary risks.

true but i found it useful for stoping scrubby sentinels who like doing the frying pan at every possible moment

just chiming in real quick to say that you can do relaunch off task airthrow, almost any distance except directly off ground (like tk-stuff distance)

edit: nevermind, realized counters send too far to do relaunch

Okay, here’s a (what I like to think is) good question: You have them in the corner, you called your Assist, but you don’t know if they’re going to call an Assist. How do you get in with Tasky? Do you (A) Web Swing (B) use Shield © try to do the unblockable (D) jump in (E) just wait?

I wouldn’t mess around with the unblock unless you know you can bait that pushblock :expressionless:

Does Taskmaster have any quick or instant overheads?
