I have some good ones:
They are mostly based on my current team Haggar(y)/Wesker(b)/Thor(a), but these might work with similar assists.

-Do a block string of any air move, c.:l:, Lariat. When Lariat is over, HAGGER BUSTER

This is silly, but it does work in corner, and midscreen if there’s no advancing guard. Have to check frame data for further info. If Lariat hits, connect with any lv1 Hyper.

-Any combo to :l:Violent Axe, :l:, :m:, :l:Violent Axe, dash/wavedash under, HAGGER BUSTER or mixup

Have to test this more and see the recovery properties of the opponent. This is good, but it is jumpable. Before the dash, you can use an assist to pin the opponent down and mixup in several ways:
With Thor’s Mighty Spark assist:
-(Spark on ground/air hit) Ground pipe or :s: and combo
-(Spark on air guard) wait, jump and Backdrop or timed :h: Hoodlum and combo
-(Spark whiff on ground crouch block) :m: Hoodlum, Pile Driver or HAGGER BUSTER

-Any combo to AMS, OTG assist, dash/wavedash/wait, HAGGER BUSTER or mixup

This is good on corner, especially with flashy OTG assists. In Wesker’s case, recovery occurs really low to the ground, so, you can wait for the landing, or air pipe in case of recovering up

-Any throw, assist, c.:h: ghetto roll crossup, HAGGER BUSTER

This only work with deceivable assists, such as Thor’s Mighty Spark, which whiffs on low block. If Haggar is near the blocking opponent, you can HAGGER BUSTER immediately, even if the Spark hit frames are in the screen. Still don’t know if Spark hit big chars like Sentinel on crouch… You can time it to work after Wild Swing as well, but watch the roll recovery.

-(On hit or block) :l: or c.:l:, :h: or c.:h: or Ground Pipe ~ kara cancel HAGGER BUSTER

This is just awesome! You have to be really close though. Pushblock attempts will be punished, standing around will be punished, most reversal hypers will be punished! Off the three :h: attacks, c.:h: gives the most range, but Ground Pipe is by far the best to use, due to kara timing and the deceivable animation. You can use standing :l: and :m: similar animations to punish or pin down jumpers and mixup with various things. Use it to kill Phoenix :slight_smile:

Still have to check the frame data to put more variables and see what can both players do

Here’s a funny one. standing a,b,6c, 623a, grab super. If they’re standing or not at point blank range for the A, the 623a will whiff, and you get a free shot at a haggar buster.

11

2A, 2B, 6C, 623B xx Buster looks like it should work if you start the buster right as the announcer says YES!. I still need to test this on a person, though.

12

After a blocked dp+lp, mix up with instant air throw if they jump a lot.

13

wesker’s level 3 beats it, just fyi. even if you start yours right after his.

14

Qcf+HP cancel right before third hit connects on block.

15

This has actually been doing very good for me. Thanks for this. The timing is bleh though.

Also, I propose we call this thread “Hold back if you want, it’s your funeral”. Since it’s level 3 grab setups, and if you hold back… well you get the point.

16

My fav setup is air pipe, st. a, st. b, jump, land, lvl 3. Perfect for mashers.

17

finishing the combo nets the same damage for 1 bar

The risk in burning 3 meters to gimmick a guy for 450,000 damage is not worth it. I prefer to only use it as a guaranteed punish off xfactor for bigger damage

18

Air pipe, air pipe, air pipe, whiffed headbutt into lvl 3.

19

will try these out in training mode.

20

  1. For the incoming character gimmick, train them with air pipe (unless it’s a super armor character) on their character coming in then empty jump (land at almost the same time as they do) into level three.

  2. Lariat (whiff on crouchers/small chars) cancel into level 3. Many people will be stuck blocking UNDER your arms and that gives the perfect invincible setup into lvl 3. Just make sure your lariat is whiffing and make sure you cancel it into lvl 3, not wait till it’s over.

  3. Slow projectile assist, Dash, lvl 3. Catch them when they think they should be blocking the projectile.

  4. Tron assist, lvl 3. Tron’s animation is still out there when they’re out of blockstun so it’s very easy to lvl 3 them while they think they should still be blocking.

21

when i kill a character and the other is comming in i lariat, if they block the lariat i wait till they try to punish and level three if they get hit by the lariat i level 1 hyper.

22

headbutt to level 3. But make sure the headbutt is a counter hit. if you hit the headbutt with a counter hit, you opponent will be in a dizzy state where you have lots of time to x-factor and level-3. should be an instant kill. if not follow it up with a haggar press right after the level 3 hyper

23

cr. light, cr. medium, f. heavy xxx heavy violent axe, st. light, st. medium xxx light violent axe, medium hooligan launcher xxx Level 3.

Basically the opponent gets reset in the air after the light violent axe and if the opponent neutral air recovers Haggar will end up behind the character from the medium hooligan launcher then you can cancel the recovery frames of the medium hooligan launcher into level 3. If they air recover back Haggar will end up in front of the character once they land then you can do level 3 as well. If they forward air recover Haggar will just glide across the screen, probably not into safety lol. Of course any character with air dashes, double jumps, etc. can get out of the this set up easily.

Doom missile assist can be used during the standing light after the heavy violent axe to make this somewhat safer. I also found some other resets with Haggar and Doom Missiles assist which I’ll probably post later.

24

U mentioned the bionic arm cancelled into level 3 haggar.

someone did this on a recent stream using sentinel’s flying hyper, dhc into haggar.

you can do this with deadpool’s cutting time, wesker’s phantom dance.

I’ve been trying to do it with hulk gamma crush, and i’ve got it to connect a few times. difficult but very tricky

25

This. Scrubby as it sounds use the pipe to put the fear of God into them, then just land with his level 3,

26

You can also cancel the air pipe before the hit box comes out with giant swing then land and do level 3/command grab/low into BnB. that’ll keep em guessing.

27

I know this is along the same lines as dp+L, level 3 but if you’re super far away and you catch someone offguard you can do a dp+M and level 3 right after, this covers a TON of distance and most people are shocked by the range on the grab.

28

More like 7 frames start up, and that’s for right next to him.
