RC run, stop, grab. Maki is now top tier.
It’s at gamecombos.com, it’s second in the HARVEST series of combo videos my Mr.MEM. The editing is pretty screwy and messes with your head.
But MEM does a C Groove super cancel where uses combos into the Level 2 punch combo super, super cancels it, dizzys the opponent, builds up another level, Level 2 again, and finshes the combo with a command run kick throw. In total, it was 27 hits. I can’t figure it out because the screwy editing, maybe you can do better.
If you know him, tragic was the first person with it, so if you can’t find it at gamecombos.com, he’d probably know where it is.
about the maki combo If you have aim i can send you the real combo. (minus effects so you can see whats happning.)
well at evo, maybe around the 3rd or 4th round in the goldbracket, i played this guy who used level 1 king and level 3 sagat (or was it blanka…fuck i cant remember), so king was used. i messed him up though…
On the sign-ups day of EVO, i saw a guy use S-Groove Athena against Viscant. Torwards the end he kept doing her Lv1 Shining Crystal Bit to Crystal Shoot for like 20seconds. Too bad he lost 
.
It still drew a crowd however.
One thing I noticed, A-Groove and RCing make characters very good in some cases (i.e. Tokido’s E. Honda:lol: and Ken’s Yun 
)
By the way, JChen, about how long before you revert to your original, XvSF, A-groove self? I’m still waiting 
That was probably Peachy. Apparently he did the same in the tourney againts Chikyuu.
Actually, I used Kyosuke in my first CvS2 match in A-Groove. He was a decent battery, and I actually won that match. Improvistation custom that shit!
Edma: OUCH. RC Run xx quick stop, wtf can you do against that? I think you can even bust a level 3 then 360 and you’re fully invincible. Or activate if you played A. 
Haha. ^^ Yeah, I played A-Groove for a while, but missing Custom Combos is too annoying. ^^ I’ll stick with my Cross-up Short, Lightning Kick, Crouch Jab, Crouch Strong into Level 1 Super into Super Jumping Roundhouses with Chun Li.
Seriously, without Low Jump and Running, I feel so lost these days.

Well, your Morrigan was proper. If I remember correctly it was whiff Run Cancelled MK or RK (changed sides) to Darkness Illusion:cool: Did you RC in that match, i can never tell?
Yuri is yummy.
Out of the shotos who do u guys think is the best??? IMO it’s Akuma cause he can punish real nice after cross ups and RC red fireball owns u up…After that I’d say Ryu…Ryo,then Ken…just cause I’m weird like that Lata …
-Dr.B:cool:
I say Ken. He’s Quick easy and straight to the point. Average everything but sacrifice’s zoning for close range combat. RCing his Kick Variations=Hilarious :lol: His rushdown is damn good too.
After that, its a tie between Gouki and Ryu. They have to be played right to be effective. Its a style thing.
where is zangief and rock in the mix of things? like…how high up are they in tiers?
also…does anybody have any videos of when somebody good used some k-groove in Evolution2002?
IMO Zangief is low or mid tier…I’d say Rock is a defenite mid tier…
-Dr.B:cool:
Although very brief, they do have a quick explanation as to Rock’s incarnation in CvS2 on the link below. This is especially important if you remember people talking about how good he was going to be when the CvS2 betas were out.

Whoa, that sounds like a cool combo…and it sounds hard Maybe I’ll x-copy that instead of doing crouch jab x2, into crouch strong…
Yes, Raiden was used. Chikyuu’s Raiden is not as legendary as many people think it is though…as shown in my first game with him (darn it, I should’ve beaten him!) where I was destroying him with C groove Bison. You just have to be wary of the fact that he has about a billion setups to land his 720, and it’s impossible to learn them all (my favorite was his meaty low roundhouse into 720…that takes skill :eek: ), so you have to CONSTANTLY pay attention to anything that even remotely looks like a setup. I forgot that fact, and he screwed me over the second game
I saw a King, and a Kyosuke player at Evol…nothing spectacular though. No Yuri or Dan players though…maybe I should take them up.
Morrigan is just Flying (Running in SNK Grooves) Forward (crosses-up and turns around if needs be), Crouch Short, Crouch Fierce into Raging Demon Super. You have to be fast, though.
And I never RC’ed at Evl2k2. I didn’t practice RC’s enough to use them with any confidence at Evolution.

One of my favorite characters in CVS2 is ken, I think its so much fun playing C-Groove ken. I play A-groove sometimes, but without a shadow I have a hard time keeping my customs going.
I love canceling the level 2 supers! If I hit a meduim kick into shoryureppa and I whiff, I cancel into a fireball or a tiger knee huricane kick and go flying to the other side of the screen! hahaha If I connect I will tag a hurricane kick on the end right when the super is about to end for more damage! I also play Cammy, not so much cuz she is a high tiered character, but I learned how to play her years ago and I just really like her. I play a different kind of Cammy though, I throw at least 5-10 times a match. It drives people crazy! Then I will also throw some Balrog or Blanka in thier for fun. I like to piss people off with the blanka. I started using blanka cuz I couldnt beat sagat easily with ken so I have a sagat killer! Another reason I like ken is that Ryu is good but I always get air parried when I dragon punch, so I use ken because very few p-groovers can pary 2-3 hits. I do think ken is the strongest Shoto in this game though, because he has two ways of getting past projectiles, has an antiair super that isnt a level three, he also seems a bit faster than the other two.
I’m starting to play Athena…from what I see in most Athena players they make her look hella “dry”…I want my Athena Teleporting all over the place…Dash air kicking like a maddman…Psyhco balls…and plenty of Down Hp…lol…I just need some other nutty chars to put on a great show…!!!
