Kibbles n' Bits: The Amaterasu Combo Thread

ah my bad thought it was a ironman-ish ode, aww why capcom doin ammy like this :frowning:

Anyone confirm for me how tight linking f+h x 4 after ammy’s, glaive qcf+L? i rarely ever get it, is it character specific or something

No, you need to hit the Thunder Edge [L] while the opponent is high enough so that the first f.H actually hits above Ammy.

If you’re doing Thunder Edge [L] from a j.[H] then you have to make sure that the j.[H] hits AS CLOSE TO THE GROUND AS POSSIBLE, and then execute Thunder Edge [L] as soon as possible (assuming no XFactor) to get the opponent in perfect range for f.H.

If you execute j.[H] too high on accident then you can just go into s.H->c.H->Thunder Edge L

…Hey guys… 4 Month Xbox 360 break and now I am trying to return. I’m so behind, not bothering trying to catch up with ā€˜tech’.

cr.L combos into st.L? Anyway… I might have squeezed all of the Amaterasu combos from my team, but how is everyone else doing?

Yeah, I’ve been trying to develop some stuff with my new team. Uncharged liberation assist can start some cool stuff thanks to its fixed untechable time, and in the corner it lets you get some cool extensions, like, glaive :h: :a1: :d::h: /:a1:/ :qcf:[:m:]. Still working on my hitconfirms off the 3-spell versions.

I highlighted things that stood out to me…

I want to ā€˜Kappa/DansGame’ you so bad right now. I was contemplating whether or not to ask my friend to ā€˜teach’ me Dorm, since that is one of his top characters, Aside from Viewtiful Joe, that I find myself losing to so much. But… I dont think I can really ever break my team of Skrull/Ammy/Nova. I want to win but Just can’t abandon anyone, and I dont care to use anyone else really.

I don’t know what this means. Like, I’m familiar with the emotes you are referring to, but, I don’t know what you mean.

Are you calling me out for picking Liberation assist? 'cause it’s kind of awesome. Plus it grants Stalking Flare for THCs, which is waaay better than Chaotic Flame.

I’ve actually kinda been wanting to drop Taskmaster for all of Ultimate, but I never found someone to replace him. But now I have.

Well, maybe not calling you out. Just ironic That I was thinking about Dormammu, and you’ve already been fiddling with him. So, Kinda going for the ā€˜That was my idea but not really’ thing. He’s badass, though.

And here I’m wondering why you’ve changed your avatar. I guess I have an answer now.

So some order of Spencer/Dormammu/Ammy? That sounds very interesting. I know FChamp started using Liberation over Dark Hole on his team a while ago but that’s because he has Hidden Missiles as his primary assist. Not sure how well Cold Star works as the primary assist on your team (that is if you’re playing her in the back at all) but I’m sure you know better than I do. The last time I had that combination of characters on a team was in Vanilla.

Also, I don’t know if I agree with Stalking Flare being better in THC’s than Chaotic Flame. Spencer/Dorm THC seems spicy if they get hit or as long as the ball makes contact with them before they leave the Bionic Arm blockstun (otherwise they can hit Spencer and make the ball disappear).

Dorm/Ammy THC is weaker by comparison though since Stalking Flare takes longer to start up than Okami Shuffle (IIRC), making it difficult to use on reaction to punish something. Meanwhile Chaotic Flames starts up in 8 frames, making it ideal for random punishes.

That being said, I’m looking forward to seeing those combos and how the team works together.

Honestly I prefered your old avatar Adelheid, watching Ammy/Spencer/Task cats together was awesome. Wish I had something similar for my team :stuck_out_tongue:

From what I’ve heard, apparently Zak has showed some synergy with Dormammu + Cold Star but I haven’t actually watched any of Zak’s matches yet lol

ive played with him quite alot he doesnt really have much by the way of synergy apart from relaunches and he always makes sure he has ammy anchor.
If you want incoming setups to guarantee unblockables hes defo one to watch

It is really for Spencer’s benefit more than anything else. But, uh, spoilers: They need to hit Dorm for the ball to disappear ε:

Well, I can go corner to corner in a simple way with my team. Ammy starting the combo. Doesn’t do amazing damage, but if I get a hit while I am in the corner, the combo ends with the opponent in the other corner. Meh… about 680,000 Damage, give or take. Depends if I try to add in the nova assist for a small bit of extra damage before the hyper. I’m trying to find something else with style. I like stylish combos.

–

Edit;
Apparently doing the normal glaive string goes further than I thought… And its more simple than what I was talking about above, giving better positioning and slightly more damage. Just not as… stylish.

That’s what I thought as far as Spencer was concerned but I was under the impression that the ā€œpoint characterā€ had to be hit in order for the ball to disappear. Does that property change during a THC?

It was one of the changes they made to Dormammu IIRC. If you DHC’ed out of Stalking Flare, the ball will disappear if the new point character was hit.

I play my friend, who uses Dorm a lot. That Flare Bomb will only dissipate if Dorm himself is hit. Bomb, tag out/DHC. The bomb will stay on screen until it hits you, or you block out it’s durability. Usually I am having to block it, so it i rare that I get the chance to test it mid match though. Just my thought, dont quote me as I’m not sure.

'Nother combo video. Nothing too special.

Hey guys, i need to know what Amy can do that is a loop or REALLY cheap in XF lvl 3. Once i get a hit I feel I shouldnt have to burn bar with this character. lol.

XF3, huh?

Yeah, I’ve got you covered~

Was messing around with some random stuff yesterday, but I feel like I’m lacking something to actually make these a bit longer…
