It is critical that you pay attention! The Nova combo thread

Figured out what my problem was.

I forgot to turn off auto-jump in the options.

level 3 xfactor loop

Launch jump cancel into javelin, repeat. dunno if anyone has found this yet, kinda cool.

Fun corner combo if you have Sentinel with Drones on your Nova team. You can link two Super Nova supers together.

:d::m: :h: :s: j.:h: (fly) j.:h: (unfly) j.:h: (land) :h: :s: j.:m::m::h::s: (call Sent), :f::d::df::l: (Nova Strike Light) xx :f::d::df::atk::atk:, last drone hits, :f::d::df::atk::atk:

It’s not super valuable if your character after Nova cleanly DHCs to him, but it looks really pretty :stuck_out_tongue:

I can only do the fly combo (730k) in corners, mid screen the S is too far to connect.

While pretty cool in its own right, I mentioned earlier this can be done in the corner with centurion rush H with no X-factor.

I think I have some new tech here, but it would be best if someone with more consistent execution tries to replicate this event with the more complex and damaging relaunch combos, to see how viable it is with what’s emerging as Nova’s best meter-building potential. I was able to get it to work twice, and it may only work on certain characters, but what I found was a possible link between Nova’s Gravimetric Blaster Hyper and Super Nova Hyper right after an air X-Factor Canceled Super Nova in the corner.

[CORNER ONLY] c. L, c. M, s. H, s. S, j. M, j. M, j. H, j. S, Nova Strike, s. S, j. M, j. M, j. H xx Super Nova, Air X-Factor Cancel (near or on last hit, to allow opponent to come up to maximum height), Gravimetric Blaster, Super Nova.

The first Super Nova brought the dummy upward, allowing Nova to land Gravimetric Blaster after the air X-Factor. But the “bounce” after Gravimetric Blaster positioned the dummy perfectly to eat another Super Nova. The hit stun from Gravimetric Blaster lasted just long enough for me to get it off; the timing is pretty strict. Too early and you DHC, too late and the hitstun ends. Confirmed that the link is possible and easier with combos that have lower hitstun decay, if you can’t get the timing for the link try just doing s. S, j. M, j. M, j. H, Super Nova, Air X-Factor Cancel, Gravimetric Blaster, Super Nova. Have not tested red-life powered Gravimetric Blaster in this combo, first on my to-do list tomorrow.

Some less-than practical combo pathways I found

[media=youtube]wwWzxzbb4Kc[/media]

Combo 1: s.H xx DP+H, sjc, A+S, j.M, j.H, s.S, sjc, A+S, j.M, j.H xx DP+AA

Combo 2: f.H, s.H, s.S, wait, sj.H, QCB+S, j.H xx QCB+L, j.H xx QCB+L xx DP+AA

Didn’t see.

Well you can do Cent rush L -> H -> repeat, not corner only. Looks like deadpools quick work loop.

Combined two of the things mentioned in this thread/forum. (specifically Kjunk and FlyingVe)

The javelin resets and sent drones hitting after super nova.

Basically anything into sent drones LK Centurion rush OTG, Super Nova, last drone will hit, s.S, Javelin.

LK Centurion Rush OTG drones also works but seems a bit tight. (Have to delay the OTG or they recover too quickly). F+H > Drones also works sometimes.

will be updating later tonight

Me breaking 800,000 with Nova. Sorry for the quality.
Dmg is 804,000

It builds 1 meter
I can’t get it to work on RR or V Joe. I did get it to work on Ammy though. I’ll be trying others later.

Awesome combo (like really, good work). Would you mind if I recorded it so we have a better quality? This is looking like the go to corner combo.

You might be able to squeeze a little more damage out of it if, instead of the Fly/Unfly loop, do a light rocket punch loop (,jC, j236A, ADD, jC, -/, S,)

Please do.
Anyway you can make it better/easier go ahead.

Oh, should I credit you as JGCZR or something else?

your right sometimes i use cr.:m: to continue the combo, i really like what this character can do so far.

Combo/Reset video almost done, only got two more to record, but they are both a bitch and a half and then some.

Yes, JGCZR will be good.

Try Sentinel, because I don’t think it will work on him. S, Javelin, j.M didn’t work for me on him when I tried.

THe woes of recording videos. Pain in the dick sometimes
