Magneto TAC Infinite - *UNDER CONSTRUCTION*

*Post is under construction, some stuff might not make any sense/be in the wrong place, so, Keep Calm : ) *

[SIZE=4]a) INTRO[/SIZE]

Please do not quote any of the OP posts in their entirety
Creating this thread to clear confusion and develop new strategies revolving around the TAC infinite for Magneto. Shoutouts to everyone who has contributed to the advancement of this piece of technology: LiquidMetal, Kennykilla, RayRay, Alioune, Soundpross and everyone helping out with posts on the thread.
New infinite stuff
Yeah so, this thread will be a bit different from now on. I’m removing the resets section, as the TAC infinites are just too good to EVER reset for ANY reason. Each post will be divided in 2 sections: Standard Infinite and Unfly Infinite, with setups and variations for each.

The thread will also be divided in 7 parts:

a) Intro
b) The TAC Infinite
c) Setups.
d) Variations.
e) Enders.
f) Misc.

And I will try my best to provide examples for each of the items with videos. So, let’s get it started.

Notations for this thread:
st. - Standing
cr. - Crouching
j. - Jumping (neutral)
jf. - Jump Forward
jb. - Jump Back
ad - Air Dash
[land] - Character lands from the air
[delay] - slight dead time between inputs
[TAC HIT] - The initial hit that a character comes in from an exchange

:l::h::s::atk::a1::a2:
…:ub::u::uf::f::df::d::db:…

Character size notations:
(s) - Small character (RR, Joe, Ammy, etc)
**(m) **- Medium character (Wesker, Nova, Vergil, etc)
**(l) **- Large character (Dormammu, Doom, Strange, etc)
(xl) - Xtra Large character (Sentinel, Nemesis, Hulk)

[SIZE=4]b) The TAC Infinite[/SIZE]

The TAC Infinites originated from a system exploit in Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. By doing a Team Aerial Combo (exchanging mid-air combo to another character), you can perform extended combos ignoring hitstun-decay completely, until you hit the ground.
However, someone found a way to bypass this rule, thus opening the floodgates to the discovery of infinite combos for a great part of the cast.
To initiate the glitch, a player must hit a physical attack extremely low to the ground and immediately re-jump, maintaing the opponent juggled, thus “tricking” the game into thinking that the player never touched the ground. (Magneto was later found to be the only character so far to bypass the first rule, no needing a landing hit to initiate and infinite.)

Each character has their own unique loop which can be found by searching their specific boards or googling.

The first version of Magneto’s infinite, specifically, was revealed on June 25 2012, in this video:

[details=Spoiler][SIZE=4]c) Setups[/SIZE]

The setups for the TAC infinite vary, depending on your screen position, character you’re facing and the direction you TAC you opponent in. This thread is an effort to find Universal/Consistent confirms for all characters. Slight timing changes are necessary for each body type, but those can’t be explained by notation. You need to acquire the feel for it through trial and error.

[SIZE=4]f) Misc[/SIZE]
aka: Infinite Theory

This section will have a few quotes of interesting posts and thoughts about the infinite, from the way it will affect metagame to execution tips.

[details=Spoiler]1) Effects on the “Magneto” Metagame:

[details=Spoiler]Magneto is primarily a point character. At first glance, this would make a TAC infinite seem redundant for him on a Magneto-X-X team build. However, Magneto is a character who very often DHCs to finish his combos, resulting in a ToD. It is pretty much necessary if you want to kill a 1mil life character without level 3.
This DHC will often put Magneto in the 2nd position, giving the point character access to Magneto’s Infinite, from pretty much anywhere on the screen, any direction. If you get hit with a TAC, you will lose a character and have to fight a juiced up Magneto with your incoming character, facing his own deadly welcome mixups.
As for teams that use Magneto on the 2nd or 3rd position, they gain easier access to these TACs. A team of Zero-Dante-Magneto, even as it loses it’s point character and 50% of it’s strength, can now ToD you meterless, whereas before, Dante would have a tough time creating ToDs with Magneto, specially on higher health characters, without expending too much meter and leaving Magneto dry at the end.
The TAC mixup gets even deadlier when coupled with characters like Morrigan or Zero, who can layer 2 TAC guesses through TAC dash canceling, or with characters like Doom who can condition you to expect a TAC, but instead bring you back into a combo with a frame trap reset.

The “ease of use”, universality and versatility of Magneto’s infinite, compared to the ones of other characters (Amaterasu, X-23) make it much more useful, as well. The execution requirement is average and it’s relatively easy to learn, so it’s a plus in any team and absolutely tournament viable.[/details]

2. Executing the Infinite:

[details=Spoiler]Lucky for you, this thread was created, with all the notations and video examples of the combos. Even so, not everything can be learned simply from reading inputs.
First of all, even if Magneto’s infinite is relatively simple, it still requires decent execution to perform. Specifically, Magneto execution. It’s good to know your Flight combos, air dash cancels and the timing/properties of your normals/specials. You won’t get these down 98% if you’re just trying to replicate what you saw in video. You need to actually understand how much float each of his moves cause and how this will affect the opponent’s character during the infinite.
With that said, the hardest part of learning the infinite combos themselves is the setup out of each direction of the TAC. Even if the inputs are the same, different character weights and sizes force you to adjust your timing on the fly (heh), which is where that Magneto knowledge comes in handy.
As a general advice, you have to know why the TAC infinites work in the first place. They work because you’re exploiting the system, fooling it into thinking you’re not touching the ground at all. To do this, you must end each of your loops and set up with a normal that hits as close to the ground as possible, so close that the animation for the move doesn’t end or linger too long. After the hit (preferably immediately as you press the button for that hit) you should be holding :u: in order to re-jump as soon as possible. This guarantees that, if you timed the hit right, HSD will not return for the following jump loop. These are the only two universal factors that matter, when attempting any character’s TAC infinite.

Back to Magneto. The setups are TAC specific and can be character specific. Check. The jump loops are always the same for any TAC, but since each character fall at different speeds (ie: Nemesis falls faster than Nova) you will need to adjust the timing of your jump loops in order to keep the infinite going. This is much easier than it seems, if you know the tricks. In this post I explain the BnB jump loop:

[media=youtube]dtYWqsq9Liw[/media] My dTAC infinite video. Posting so I can point a few things about maintaining the infinite (height correction). As you all know, you need to jump as soon as possible so that the glitch doesn’t drop. The setup is easy: [TAC HIT] :l: Hyper Grav j [hold up] [jump] delayed j :h::s: makes the opponent drop to an acceptable height xx addf j. the last 3 points are the infinite. Now, since you can’t delay your jump for spacing, you need to delay your :h…

When you master both the setups and the BnB loop, you can use them in matches. Otherwise, I wouldn’t go for it, just go into a regular TAC, since those are still an option[/details]

3. More height control stuff

you can do the “BnB” infinite at a regular rate and when you need to bring the character back up, you just switch j. H to j. M and continue that until they have risen ( j.:s: xx ad:df: j.** [land]** )

[/details]

Are there any consistent variations?
The standard one is consistent as soon as you get it going, but the height on the first rep always drops randomly, I don’t really trust that infinite yet.

I believe the dash h infinite is probably a little more consistent than the first infinite that was discovered

[Pertho]

I got an incredibly stupid question about that second infinite: how come the air S doesn’t spike them into the ground? Shouldn’t the opponent’s character go straight down since they are still in that super jump combo state?

[xiceman191]

I got an incredibly stupid question about that second infinite: how come the air S doesn’t spike them into the ground? Shouldn’t the opponent’s character go straight down since they are still in that super jump combo state?

when you get caught in the hyper grav it nullifies the knockdown on S.

[Kanta-Kun]

It’s a mix of hitting hyper grav and re-jumping.

It’s weird as fuck. But hey, that’s the way it is.
