First of all, I find myself questioning Dante/Task/Akuma. It seems like you have two assists who serve the same purpose. I feel like your team was stronger when you had tron. A bunch of the mixups which killed your Dante could have been easily avoided by mashing on DAT A2.
You didn’t do anything wrong the first game imo, Mine was just in there with the mixup. One thing that I like to do is airplay>hammer. It bodies teleports and cross unders and would have allowed you get the first hit in. After that, there wasn’t much to do, i’m not convinced in the comeback factor of Task/Akuma against a strong phoenix team.
Good shit in the 2nd round. You either got a bit lucky or had some godlike yomi on the phoenix kill when you hit her thanks to a preemptive pushblock. Though i’m curious what you tried to do on your first opening where you had wesker in the corner, in perfect position for a snap and did nothing… But real solid play in the second round, you prevented both Dark Phoenix and Dark Wesker from rising.
3rd round, I was pretty hype in front of the TV, rooting on you with beers and shit. I saw the snap and the Crystal and was like oooh, he’s going for Million Carats cross up, he’s baiting a jump back fireball. Then you dropped it and I was sad. Then you got a snap with Task and I was likee ooh, he can still do this, he has to go for up arrows or something since it beats a lot of her options(jump back/teleport/salty ball). Every time you snapped mine’s phoenix in, she did the same thing EVERY single time, double jump back>2H. Anything from J.H airgrab OS to up arrows combo fiend mixup to Meaty>J.Mighty swing would have worked. I was pretty sad when I saw the shield rush, but it was evo top 32, pretty hard to make clear decisions at that point.
Yeah I made the strong mistake of playing against Mine’s phoenix like it was Champ’s. That was the biggest clear cut mistake I made. Should have kept it simpler.
The crystal XFC was actually a different set up, and was also not appropriate for Mine’s defense. Thanks for the feedback x_x
You have any tips for getting the air dash to come out quick enough for you to keep comboing after the airplay? It feels like everytime I try it I come up just a bit short.
Recorded a couple combos while waiting for the BB tourney we had today to start.
First are some Reverb Shock starter BNBs. It’s a pretty good punish and a good poke in general, and I noticed I (and a lot of other Dantes) was getting very little off of it by doing the basic Launcher>J.H>Killer Bee>Launch Charge Shot reps>Blabla>Super. I messed around with the HSD and I was pretty surprised you can go into regular bnbs from it. If you do the fireworks, you can still get some solid damage with Launch>prop>whatever.
Last is a J.S bnb that deals decent damage and meter gain.
Quality is a bit ass, the software I used was pretty terrible, so sorry bout that. Slightly better in 480

video ends at 2:10 just showing one of my friends sick dante drawing for the last minute.
Sorry about some repetition the full video i do will be much better.
i use jetstream instead of reverb shock when it comes to hitting a max range stinger confirm usually. its just as safe on block if you cancel the blocked hit immediately too.
