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

[6pt7]

As far as Wesker-B is concerned, once you learn the timing of using Hammer in combos you could do something like magic series>volcano>air play stuff> AA charge shot or Wild Stomp depending on position xx Prop Shredder> Hammer > Wesker OTG assist > j.S > rest of combo into whatever.

You can also use Wesker-B to extend Dante’s air throw into a hammer or something. The timing is weird, but just requires practice.

You’re probably doing it too early.
Try inputting the teleport at the very end of prop shredder, it’ll probably feel like you’re doing it way too late.
Doing it too early and you’ll just super jump or something.

This helped, thanks. I also realized that I was herpa derping and pressing :d: :d: :u: :s:+:l: instead of just :s:. Way more consistent now. SO MANY complex inputs to remember with Dante, but that’s what makes him fun.

Now I’ve got 2 more questions:

1. Sometimes when I do the midscreen bnb, I’ll come upon a situation where after the cold shower > stinger > bold cancel teleport > j.:s:, the j.:s: whiffs. I think this happens when I teleport too close to the corner, but it’s happened in the dead center of the screen too. Are there any variants I can do to ensure the hit?

2. What am I missing out on if I can’t do acid loops?

1. If you’re too close to the corner you’ll never get J.S to hit, and if you’re missing it and you’re not really close to the corner you’re doing it too late.

2. Free damage and meter.

Hey quick qs, how do u make dantes sky dance last hit whiff for the extended knock down?

[dantemustdie]

Hey quick qs, how do u make dantes sky dance last hit whiff for the extended knock down?

From the first page:

2. Sky Dance: A lot of combos require that you make the last hit of Sky Dance whiff so that you can OTG the opponent to keep the combo going seeing as how if it hits it knocks them fullscreen and at best you can only get Million Dollars. In order to cause the last it of Sky Dance to whiff after you launch them, you have to delay something. There isn’t a specific thing, or a specific timing. Some people delay their super jump, others delay the activation of Sky Dance. One thing you must note though, is that depending how you long you delay can affect the amount of damage you get out of it.

Basically, experiment and try to see what works best for you.
Maybe someone can give you an example of what they do to get it to whiff. I personally stopped using Sky Dance a while ago because I felt that it was too inconsistent for my liking.

If I’m going to do Sky Dance, I never do just J.H >Sky Dance. I normally go with J.M>J.M>J.H>Sky Dance and it just works out that the last hit whiffs for me.

Hmmmm ok, thanks for the reply

I see a lot of Wesker and Tron players do that. That’s some unoptimal shit though. With Wesker B you can air grab>Call Wesker>Rainstorm(2 hits)>Land>Launch>Charge Shot>Prop>LOTSA STUFF.

Anybody have any ideas bout a DHC (Midscreen) from Trish’s glitch into dante?

Kinda hard to getta consistent combo off glitch midscreen with dante.

[Shin-Chan]

I made a really big research and I am not very sucessfull… with amaterasu as assist or solo is possible to do sky dance with a groundounce reset?really having a hard time trying to figure out…

Do you mean dhc glitch?

In the corner you could do Cold Shower, Stinger, bold cancel, Skydance, and then you Devil Trigger right as you hit the ground.

[exarchezekiel]

Yeah I"m basically looking for a midscreen Glitch.

oh… I though that could be possible… but since it uses devil trigger I was trying to avoid it… started to dislike the devil trigger in middle of a combo since it stop the meter build and continues to build the enemy bar… so for combo I am trying to avoid that but… ok well… thx… I will try that aprotch then =)… or try something else XD… with zero don’t have anything about skydance goundbounce reset right?

[rogueyoshi]

you can also do volcano > beehive, tk skydance > devil trigger on most characters (all characters if they’re high enough)

[Shin-Chan]

so… meterless setup only with sentinel I suppose…

[Mercurial]

Whatever assist you use, it would have to last through the duration of Skydance. Ergo, any assist that doesn’t last longer than Skydance wouldn’t work, no.

Doom Missiles, Shocking Pink, and perhaps a complicated Modok Bomb setup, all come to mind. Use a little creativity.

Would Ammy work? No, probably not.

Alternatively, you could use any assist that resets the ground bounce naturally. Deadpool, and I think TQ used Chris’s Mine in one of his videos? They come to mind.

any tips to the timing for SJC’ing acid rain after prop shredder? I’ve been attempting to do at least 2 reps of acid rain loops for hours with my mad day 2 dante skillz haha. what’s the best followup after acid rain, j.S? haven’t been integrating volcano~beehive into my combos yet since double DP motions are ass. I’ve just been doing cold shower xx stinger xx bold cancel, killer bee, jetstream xx fireworks xx super.

cold shower >Stinger xx Bold move xx Hammer >Volcano Call an assist if you have one that can keep them in the air for a bit like akuma tatsu or haggar lariat then J.S or hammer then volcano xx beehive >Stinger xx Bold move xx Jet stream into super. If you don’t have an assist that can do this, just go into bee hive after the first volcano then stinger blah blah blah

Naa its not ike I am sadistic for the combo, its just that I was trying to improve my combos =) I used a lot of cretivity… and today I came with an good Idea that worked one time… but I have to try again … worked with ammy but its so hard that maybe I will drop it… its easyer to do 2 acid rain on anyone on middle screen =/…

[otter]

can someone give dantes most effiecient and common BnB’s lately. The first post hasnt been updated since march apparently, so I probably shouldnt trust it.

[ShineErection]

Unless you intend to try out some charge shot loops or are looking for combos using specific assists, the first page is still good.
