Honda Combos

I’m having problems linking HHS to another HHS, I use snk’s piano method… any tips for helping me with the timing? much appreciated.

Am I right in thinking you can’t link HHS to HHS against all chars? I mean I can do it against Blanka for instance but wasn’t able to against Ryu…

^^^^ i miss my march honda it was so simple then

so… can someone help me with HHS to HHS? I can link c.lp HHS, to c.lp HHS, but not c.lp HHS to HHS.
any tips as far as timing? or otherwise?

Time your last input as your HHS is finishing? Not sure what you want? I only use HHS into HHS in matches on Gief. I slide and time my last input as the HHS before is finishing.

Did anyone see that Liston vs. Citiofnbrass fight? His Honda linked the two hit Standing Roundhouse into a jab HHS! That stuff was inspiring. He also played pretty decently aginst Sagat IMO. [media=youtube]lFIn5tRYWuA"[/media]

good stuff citi!

man I haven’t had time to practice but dash forward to fp.hhs was always on my mind for the sagat fight. nice to see it in action. Also that one neutral jump fp to fp.hhs in range 2.

and sad face for ex-oicho coming out instead of ex-headbutt.

That j.hk, s.hk, c.lp xx HHS was real nice. Nice as it is though it does less damage than straight c.lp xx HHS, s.hk, or for even more damage j.hk, s.hp, c.lp xx HHS, as does m.k xx HHS, s.hk.

As for Citi’s performance he did well. Too many buttslams though as Sagat can punish these on block becasue hes so bloody tall and if Liston knew kara punishes for the headbutts that match would have looked different.

while true it does less damage… it could also be used as a super setup, J.hk, S.hk, C.lp, xx HHS xx Super
someone needs to test that out and see how much damage it does.

You can do it against all characters it’s just a matter of how many hits the 2nd one will do. For a lot (most?) of characters it wont do the full 7, but theres really no point to double hands unless you are going to FADC or super cancel it, so you only need 1 hit.

Well at the risk of looking like a scrub…i just start mashing fp at the 5th hit and i get it around 80% of the time. I mean not crazy “i dont know what the hell is going on” mashing, you should only be hitting fp 5 times and the 5th button hit should be right after the last HHS hit, but i dont bother pianoning.

i prefer the slide hhs hhs, which is way much easier. slaps you got sf4 on ps3 or pc?

alrighty… im starting to get the timing for hhs to hhs down… pretty much i just started tapping fierce about a second after HHS connects.
Also, I got j.RH, c.MK xx HHS, cr.MK xx fierce headbutt down, landed it on my first attempt :smiley: and wow… 474 damage on that combo… LOL.

Heres to hoping more of the new cast than T.Hawk have a nice fat crouching hitbox to expand the yummy “I eat a low forward and HB after getting slapped 7 times” Club.

On my list day 1 to go through and re test the cast for who still gets lit by it.

ha i honestly kinda forgot about t hawk…im sure he would have a similar hit box as gief…i would hope so. bt yah. day 1 is testin out wat still works w honda and wat doesnt.

i’m using cross-up j.mk into st.hk as a combo, take away 220 damage i guess. easy simple cross up, 3 hits. any other suggestions for beginner level cross-up combos?

I have a problem landing the kick after j.rh -> c.jab -> hhs. I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, Do I have to wait until after the last hit of the HHS to press kick?

You can mash RH while HHSing and it’ll come out. No need to wait.

yes, you have to wait.

it’s a link.

so basically you have to input the rh after the recovery of the hhs is done.
wait like a split second then double tap rh or plink rh~mk for consistency.

mashing it during hhs is horribly scrubby, waste of energy, and less consistent.

Are there any interesting new combos for Honda, I’m thinking I’ll settle back on him as a main after 3 billion other characters.
