I have a little concept for a combo if you don’t want to do the LL. Right after xx buster, L+lightning, charge buster, Sougenmu, delay, hit S, sj. S, wait a moment, qcf+h, wait a moment, xx buster, L+lightning, wait a moment, S, sj. S, wait, qcf+H(at this point you could have probably called in an assist and keep extending the combo). I’m personally have a bit of difficult timing my buster cancel after diving out of the sky but I’m sure other people can get it.

You may even be able to start lightning loop after the 1st rep if ya just wanted to change it up some.

Wow, you guys went above and beyond, I don’t know how I can thank you enough.

No problem. People here are pretty helpful honestly, so don’t worry to discuss or ask anything to anyone.

Just make sure to see first if the questions have already been answered somewhere so you don’t end up like one of the 2 guys every week that makes a thread on ways to extend Zero’s midscreen combo. Just telling you right now, Zero doesn’t need assists to carry from corner to corner in a combo.

Have fun. Random quick question, what color of Zero do you use?

MMZ

So I finally got off my ass and starting working on these, but I could use some help.

For the second combo, occasionally the s.M whiffs. Any tips on how to land that more consistently or do I just need to beat the muscle memory into me?

Kef, the Dante in your avatar looks like he has breasts.
LOL
XD

I think it might be character dependent, because I can’t get it to work on Dormammu for example. The timing is what you need to work on.

I use Color 4, it looks pretty cool paired with a all Black team. That, and i don’t see that color a lot. Why do you ask? Which color do you use? (-:

I wanted to use either black, red, or purple with my team. Most people use White, MM, or Black, so that made me not want to use black that much but whatever, we only have 6 colors to choose from.

Alright, so I’ve been working on incoming character cross ups, my friend mentioned that I should use L Raikousen. So I tried practicing with the dummy in the LAB, and for some reason L Raikousen doesn’t always cross up. Do you guys know why? is there some kind of timing involved? Or maybe I need to jump higher, or get closer to the wall, what’s the trick to guarantee that cross-up?

It’s just a timing issue. I think you can replace the first j.S in the jump chain with the 3rd hit of j.H and the rest of the combo will work and will probably be easier.

That’s exactly why it’s good, minor changes in timing and height will decide whether it crosses up or not. It’s nowhere near as potent if it always crosses up now is there?

Anyway, to get the cross up just delay it a bit so that you reach the corner when they appear on the screen, not before they come out.

Hey guys, was just wondering some tips on what i should do with zero when a new character is coming in or after i snapback…

there’s obviously the L lightning but i can’t hold them down as well without dante, and i feel like i shouldn’t do the L lightning every time…

i’m running Zero/vergil/mag

(reposting from another thread just incase)

meaty j.m call vergil release buster and run a mixup, i usually do a high low with L hienkyaku or a fuzzy with 2H

Question: I was messing around in training mode and I noticed that you can combo a grounded raikousen M into lmhs, is there any use for it in an actual match or is it unsafe, even if you cancel with buster after raikousen M ends, since zero’s too close to the ground to cancel it mid-raikousen like you can if he’s in the air?

It’s obviously shit if you’re doing it without an assist. The only time I’d do it without an assist is iin a fast paced situation where I can set up a quick tech trap with it. Otherwise never use TK M Lightning without an assist backing you up, risky business.

Im working on another Zero vid, but I kinda forgot who were the chars that needed the “fix” in order to otg xx buster > lightning them.

Magneto, strange and?

I know its impossible on Amaterasu and shuma.

Floaty chars i.e. Iron Man, Magneto, Strange, Storm er forgot who else. Doesn’t matter much if you do “the fix” on everyone anyway heh.

Wtf do I do off a throw besides XFactor?
