"It's not X you should worry about - it's me!" - The UMvC3 Zero Combo Thread

If you could it would be so broken.

Though he can special cancel j.S, so on hit/block you can do things like j.H->j.S->sentsuizan->buster for a nice confirm.

Not sure if anyone found this before and I don’t have the time to check before I leave but I found an easy corner to corner combo with drones.

cr. bc (right before launch call drones) launch, j.b, qcf+c, land, jump, qcf+c (drones connect) jump, buster xx :l: raikouzen, cr.c, launch, j. bbcs etc.

Any opener seems to work just make sure to call drones right before pressing s.

You guys know for the XFless TAC glitch you can just do MM buster > tac > dash > tac and it’ll work right?

Been a while since I’ve checked the Zero boards… whoever said it put it best, we already have 1 meter TODs on the whole cast and unblockables, what else do we want? lol

Maybe if we could innovate lightning loop to be even easier?

I guess I do have on question, any tips on doing LL on strange? He tends to fall out a lot for me still.

I must sound like a broken record at this point but… Do the H modified version of LL on him

I feel like that’s even less consistent lol

Use fraudkoha then

Wow sick, i’ve been looking for a way to do this just for style purposes, probably gonna save me from trying to flail around doing LLoop facing on my bad side.

You mean this right?[spoiler=video][media=youtube]8CpkuyhQpf0[/media]

Does that version do less damage than the original?

Yep that version, damage difference is negligible (in the sense that it shouldn’t dictate whether you do this or the standard one). It does more damage though in my experience, tends to ensure you get the maximum amount of hits out of the raikousen (you’ll notice sometimes 1 juiced up L Raikousen would only do 4-6 hits as opposed to H doing 8-10).

Again, do what you find is easier. Personally I do the H version on all floaty characters like Magneto, Strange, Nova etc, all large characters, and Wesker (seems to fall out more often than not in my normal LLs). Just comes down to personal preference.

well I can LL strange just fine using only L raikousen, maybe its a timing issue?

No doubt in my mind it’s a timing issue.

Yeah you have to do the LLs slower, like not right off the ground, which is annoying. I guess it’s just a practice thing, I hit it pretty consistent on normal characters. I just find really tiny adjustments like that difficult to make in a high pressure tournament situation.

I find the hardest part about the alt lightning loop is my fingers getting confused on the button hold / releases and what not. I’m sure that’ll go away with practice though.

One more question, for those of you that use Dante, whats the most consistent air throw combo you’ve found using Dante’s assist? Almost everything I can come up with usually ends up in me having to do a neutral jump (and thus not push to the corner as much) because of awkward spacing and stuff. I can randomly sometimes do a jump loop to buy time to get a charged buster but getting 3 hits on j.H is really random in ultimate and if you don’t get 3 hits, they fall out. Not sure how I’ve went this long without trying to find something consistent lol

hmm when I played Dante, I usually saved him for the end of the combo, whats your other assist?

also where are you trying to do this combo? midscreen or corner?

so bad match for me -_-

im just putting this out there, dont know if this has already been said or if its obvious but w,e. Since zero has so much mix up potential this might not be something you may add to your game but i think its pretty cool. if you use dante and run his jam session assist a cool incoming mix up i like to use is to call jam session and if they block medium raikousen into horizontal. this will put you in a position where you can cross under them or just stay in the corner. So really its a true 50/50.

this tip was for me ? =P yeah i know dante is bff to zero, but i simply hate to play dante, have a char on my team just to act as assist, is not worth to me, but thanks =P

Any protips on using Ammy’s Cold Star in combo?(I’ve been using it for hit confirms or after my l,m,h, cold star, f+h, m, h, f+h but I kinda feel like I’m wasting it there and adding alot of damage scaling to my combo). Also is there a particular Zero assist that will combo well with Ammy or Vergil?

[media=youtube]5fMufncuX4o[/media] highly recommend you watch that, combos from a great zero around here. check the rest of his channel too if you want, good stuff all around.

damage scaling doesnt matter, zero will kill you from any hit anywhere on screen, guaran-fucking-teed. if you dont wanna use cold star then save yourself a headache and relaunch with rapid slash like i said earlier. also, vergil can combo off ryuenjin, dunno about ammy but i would still run ryuenjin.

Ammy can combo off Ryuenjin depending on the situation, I never really tested too much since I like doing fraud Ammy combos. Anyways off Ryuenjin I would imagine you could super jump to follow Zero and do a few hits into qcf + H or jump up with the glaive and charge a j.H. One combo I know for sure works but is kind of timing strict or rather gets affected by hitstun is you do the usual ammy H combo > launch > air combo > ground bounce > M H > S + call Zero > j.s > Ryuenjin hits > j.s. Probably doesn’t do more but it looks nice. Regardless I would run Ryuenjin since Vergil can make use of it and you can use it as an invincible alpha counter.
