It's showtime! Come on! Dante Combo Thread -Will be updated to UMvC3 standards soon.-

If you do the input of the Hysteric after bold move too soon, itll take the forward command from stinger and think its an srk. My way is to do stinger, bold cancel immediately after the stinger input, neutral, then Hysteric xx Grapple… Go neutral after putting in bold cancel and youll be fine.

oh! this way seems to produce better success rate. thanks.

What would you guys say is the best BnB so far? By this i mean the most practical and reliable? I only play online so i need one that’s not too strict but still does good damage. I’m thinking of learning the Titanium Beast BnB #2, is there a combo you guys would recommend over that? Also, can you start it off of c.L or does it add too much hit stun decay? How about an overhead to LMH? Thanks.

Can someone try in the corner :l:,:m:,:h:,:f:+:h: bold cancel :qcf::m:,:qcb::atk:+:atk: :l::m::h::f::h: bold cancel :qcf::m: and repeat :l::m::h::f::h: bold cancel :qcf::m: if it loops?

You can only link :l: after Crystal if the combo has very little hit stun decay. You might be able to get it to work during X-Factor, but we’ve already got plenty of infinites there.

Your question is peculiar because you seem to know that Crystal doesn’t create enough hitstun to follow with an :l:, which I assume is why you suggest cancelling Crystal with Devil Trigger. However, Devil Trigger doesn’t give a speed boost, so you still can’t link Crystal would link into :l: for the later iterations.

Additionally, even if you were able to link :l: off Crystal, it doesn’t generate enough hitstun to link the following :m: that late in the combo.

Awesome, thanks. I have just recently added Wesker to my team so I’m really interested in utilizing the devil trigger and DHC tricks with him and Dante. While I really need to work on more combos with Dante, I have been improving pretty well with him in the training room. I need to learn more combos with him though. I can do the acid rain combo, and Titanium beast combo #2 but I’m looking to learn some other cool combos, especially ones that involve the DHC trick.

Edit: Thanks. I have no problem getting it now. I just now need to get used to being able to do a whole other combo.

I’m also curious about getting multiple acid rain loops. While I can do one just fine they never really hit consistently. Meaning sometimes they will hit perfectly and keep the enemy suspended while the drops fall and sometimes they will hit a little late and the drops will fall as the enemy is already falling.

im having trouble doing the acid rain after prop shredder…for some reason im getting the fire tornado(forgot the name), is there a specific time i have to begin inputting the buttons for acid rain during prop shredder?

I would say you’re not inputting the right sequence if you’re getting the flame tornado. Are you also doing this:qcf::uf::l: :qcf::l: You have to tiger knee one of the inputs since the prop shredder is a jump cancel. You just have to do it over and over to get the timing down but I will input the first sequence as prop shredder is ending. That way it comes out as soon as prop shredder sends them up in the air. I’m trying to get the timing perfect every time so I can do multiple acid rains but it’s not too bad. If you’re getting the flame tornado though, you might be trying it too fast and mixing the inputs. I know when I try to do multiple acid rains I’ll get the flame tornado even though my inputs clearly show :qcf::l::qcf::l: I just think the timing may be off and it may miss the down input.

The reason both of you are getting Twister instead of Acid Rain is because you’re timing Acid Rain too early and losing the first :l: input. Any time you do :f::qcf: l motion, the game accepts it as a sloppy :dp::l:.

So, in other words, your previous move is not completed by the time you press :l: for Multi-Lock, so the game ignores the :l: and thinks your second :qcf::l: is a sloppy Twister.

Yeah, I already figured that out. I was just saying that may be why he was getting Twister. because I know I’ve accidently done it. It only happens to me when I do multiple acid rain loops. After the first one, I try to input the next one too early and come out with Twister. But by figuring out that’s what I was doing, I’ve timed it better now.

adding the tiger knee did help thank you…now i just need to learn how to time it so i can hammer them as they come down from the acid rain!
:smiley:

No problem. Personally, I just slam them down with S for the acid rain but that’s probably because I suck at timing it. I keep it separate though, one combo does acid rain after prop shredder and another just has you have jump and do the hammer. I keep the hammer for midscreen since the acid rain is a little trickier to pull off. Though you can do the hammer after acid rain, I saw a combo where someone did 3 acid rain loops and by then the opponent was at the perfect height you could just normal jump and do the hammer. I do really need to work on some other combos though, I always find myself doing the acid rain combo in the corner.

Another thing you could try is teleporting after the acid rain. If it’s done correctly and the opponent is still suspended by the acid rain drops you can teleport and do the hammer. I managed to do it once so it is possible.

yes, ive pulled off the hammer during acid rain…works great but i would only use it when im trying to over kill them…other wise id just use the slam down S…although do you have problems with doing this :m:,:h:,:f:+:h: xx :atk:+:s: xx :dp::m:, j.:h:, :qcf::m:, j.:h:, :h:,:s:,:h:(AA shots):s:(prop shredder)? i often drop the combo at the AA shots because the enemy flies over the aa shot before i can use prop shredder…also the bold cancel into volcano is never a sure fire thing for me…

The only times S xx charge shot misses for me is too close to in the corner. Practice that one more midscreen. You’ll find the hard part is the charge shot to prop shredder. To early, and the tip hits and they pop out. Too late and you either whiff, or do a normal launch S. You want the opponent getting hit close to the pommel of the sword (the middle of the ‘propeller’) so they’ll get the good launch off of it so you can super jumper hammer them.

stinger (bold cancel) volcano is entirely execution. There’s plenty of tips on doing it in this thread and in a bold cancel thread. Just practice.

Touch of death combo’s into devil trigger using storm/tron kinda useful if you use them… I know alot of people use tron with dante

i was labbing up with dante and i was trying to do the 1st advanced combo on the list…and im getting stuck at the acid rain part as well…i guess my timing is off but when i do shredder the opponent just gets hit…he dosent pop up lol…any suggestions

thats pretty cool smexy, would u happen to know what’s Dante’s best midscreen combo during DHC trick? as in, starting with someone else, then DHc trick to dante midscreen

You’re probably doing prop shredder when they are too high in the air. Try to let them fall a bit more after charge shots.

yeah i think that is the problem…whats the best way to start off that combo u think? Like how do i approach my opponent and get it started?..

Know everyone’s sick and tired of Dante combos lol, but this is actually quite ridiculous: [media=youtube]wo6bAR_La4E&feature=channel_video_title[/media]

Dante manages to Cold Shower after Gravity Squeeze??
