"Jackpot!" Cody Combo Thread

can someone break down the options for comboing into normal and ex Zonk? is it charge dependent?

level 1 zonk and ex can be comboed of c.mp
level 2 and 3 of s./c.hp

tbh i never tried cl.mp O_O

btw comboed “of” or “from”? which is right?

my brain usually thinks “cancel/combo into” or “land after”… but i think “comboed off” works :razzy:

but yeah 2nd page, the elusive: zonk details thread :rock:

other times you can combo into bingo:
after knifethrow, after roundhouseruffianFADC, after EXzonkFADC, after antiair focuslvl2or3

how can you combo zonk after ex zonk fadc?

LP+HP for Ex zonk, mp for cancel, when do you charge the normal zonk? : D

like constantly lol
hold all three then [media=youtube]jiT9mIm9Ys0#t=1m56s"[/media] :wgrin:

never really bothered to test it, but good to know. didn’t thought the charge time would be enough.
also it seems it is a level 1 zonk, means that it does the same damage as mk ruffian.

It could be lvl 3, just be holding all 3p, MP+HP for EX, fadc and use LP

first post in Cody discussion, but I have been using cr. lp x 3, cr. lk, CU for cross-up combos and block-strings. I find a lot of players get thrown off by the cr. lk during block-string and would result in a hit confirm CU. Also, since cr. lk has a pretty decent recovery compared to cr. mp, i’d just not continue the lp CU and jump into my opponent to continue the pressure.

^once you’ll face opponents that know the cody matchup you’ll get reversaled after c.lp. on block c.lp, c.lk doesnt “combo”.

I see Rock combs and I see knife combos, but what about Knife throw combos?
Knife throw EX Ruffian EX CU (this ones a trial)
Knife throw super (lk only)


watch movies online

mostly corner stuff:
KnifeThrow > f+mp reset
KnifeThrow > HK RuffianKick > FADC > EX CriminalUpper
KnifeThrow > CrackKick > EX CriminalUpper
KnifeThrow > EX CriminalUpper
KnifeThrow > U1
KnifeThrow > U2(only dust will connect so be sure its ftw)
KnifeThrow > BINGO > EX CriminalUpper
KnifeThrow > EX ZONK > EX CriminalUpper

I have been attempting to buffer option select a c.lk into a mk RK just outside poking range, so if the c.lk hits the RK should come out as per here:
[media=youtube]aHHoGHcgK9k#t=2m28s[/media]

It seems the RK comes out even after the whiffed c.lk. Does this mean I am buffering too slow?

Is there a better buffer poke combination to use? (either different normal or different special?)

Thanks

You’re buffering too slow. I buffer c. lk into MK RK a lot for Balrog to counter some of his punches, even though it can be better to just block.

Pretty much what I figured. Any other buffers you use (other than the u2?) Like c.mp into mk.rk?

Not really, the main buffer I use is c. lk into mk RK. I’m a terrible cody though, so others can tell you other things.

It’s pretty obvious and by no means something special but I didn’t saw it anywhere noted:
Ex Zonk, U2 - work everywhere on the screen. ofc only the dust part hits. playin ex zonk u2 does 274. so the dust does 114 for this one. nice to know to end a match.

also not full connect LP CU => u2 works also anywhere on the screen. (e.g c.lp, c.lp, c.mp xx lp cu)

edit: ^pulled this one out today at a tourney to end a match, the bystanders were kinda amazed xD

I’ve finally finished part 2 of my advanced Cody guide you guys check it out tell me what you think.
I’ll also be starting the matchup guides for every character, using my own experience against some of the best UK players, so keep track for that as well.

The REAL Street Fighter…! All About Cody

hey, so in the corner, you can do s.fp > cr.mp xx rh.RK > forward/rh RK
but it only works on certain characters, like ryu and guy.
does anyone have a complete list of who this works on? I can do it, but if someone already compiled
this list I don’t wanna waste time

Geez man, I’ve been playing Cody for like 2 weeks at the most and I knew this. I have yet to see a character that it didn’t work on.

tried it twice in one match on a ken player, failed, might be an execution problem, but i’m thinking no
