The point of a forum is contribution. Needless to say, it’s all gravy when someone that knows what theyre talking about comes in here and writes a bible on things theyve found aka combos, mixups, etc. but I hate when people **Expect **others to contribute like theyre getting paid for it. Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against anyone. I feel like it’d be a lot more productive for everyone to be in training room trying to break the game rather than sitting in front of your computer hitting the refresh buttom in the storm forums page.
Needless to say, I play MSS and am not doing anything special with storm yet. I’m working on Magento atm, but when I do find something I’ll post.
You can variate it so you can launcher into hailstorm. combo does like 417k by itself. Does 600+ with hailstorm. Don’t remember how much it does with lightning storm because I don’t ever use this variation lol
@KElso712: Its not like I expect other people to be contributing, the forum is also for conversation is it not? I just expected more conversation happening. But anyway, about your combo, have you tried ending it with elemental rage? I heard hail storms damage scales to a minimum of 30 percent or so, while elemental rage only scales to 50 so after a lengthy combo it seems ER will be the better combo ender tbh.
Oh cool, yea Im not 100 percent sure bout those ER numbers but Im pretty sure it scales a lot less that HS plus since you have sent on deck there is not reason not to go for ER I guess. Two quick questions to whoever is capable of answering them, its no secret HS has nasty start-up which makes it kinda hard at punishing assists, so I was wondering, if you THC your hail storm will it come out on frame 1? I have been meaning to test this out but every time I get my hands on a console and a copy of the game I always forget.
My second question is, in this video [media=youtube]CTxBBAeEszc&t=8m28s[/media] the storm combo at this point, anyone know how to do it?
YEs i do believe that hail Storm begins in its active state (no start up when you DHC into it)
As far as the combo, thats one that weve posted pretty regularly. Its a variation on here BNB IMO.
Goes alittle something like this, like to see it, here it goes. (although youtube is super choppy at work so I might not have his version hit for hit)
cr:m:cr:h: jc:uf j:m:j:m:j:h: land :h:cr:h: jc:uf: j:h: ad:f: j:h: land :h:cr:h::s: ^ j:m:j:h:j:s: land Hyper (he used hail storm but I always go for ER since im a glitch whore)
Thanks but I actually meant THC it, i.e instead of :qcb: :atk::atk: I just hit both assist buttons(with 2 or more meters) to perform it.
And thanks for the notation of the combo builds a very good amount of meter for her and doesn’t seem too difficult. One last question, why don’t i see as many fly combos with storm? I know they are possible with her so just wondering why more people don’t extend their combos using it.
Oh, lol, I dont know about the THC’s I never use them. let us know if you find out.
Flight combos:
Did you watch the Fantiq vs Megaman DS matches they posted recently.
I cant remember which dood was using MSS but he was doing alot of Storm flight combos.
I think he was even doing it off of Aerial Exchanges!
But once you launch try doing j:h: ad:f: j:h: xx :qcb::s: j:m::h: xx ad:f: xx j:h: xx ad:f: xx j:h:j:s: land OTG hyper.
He probably did more j:h: than that after flight but I’ll have to watch the matches again to remember.
I personally havent messed with them much since I play online, exclusively, and the subtle lag gives me issue with the fast paced j:h: xx ad:f: j:h: reps, at least if I go for more than 2 reps.
Oh u mean these matches [media=youtube]Q87PYHmnm88[/media] I had no idea they even existed, need to watch em and see what I can find. And yea ill definitely holla if i find out bout THCs.
That combo was pretty sexy. I usually do c.:l:,c.,c.:h:, jc. :uf: j., j. , j.:h:, land, :s:, sj. , sj. , sj.:h:, sj. :s: . Land hail storm. How much more damage does the above combo do an how practical / worth it is it? I saw the video and it did look stylish.
Also I am still having problems doing the instant overhead quick enough. Not nearly as fast as magneto’s fly instant overhead.
You have to perform her float instantly, you do know how to float right? :u: then hold :u: I believe cause her to float and then hit :s: instantly to perform the overhead.
THe combo is pretty easy really and there are alot of variations so you can find one that works for you.
One of the major advantages to the multiple jump cancel combos is the amount of meter that you will build. You should be able to get 1 bar of meter with her BNB so that if have 1 to begin with you will have what you need to do a DHC trick.
Im at work as I type, so I cant give you an exact damage increase difference between what I list and what you listed, but sufice it to say that its worth learning.
Storm obviously has a lot going for her and a ton of potential, I what to play her but I look at what she can do and I’m overwhelmed. What’s a BnB I can use that’s on a beginner to intermediate level, I was thinking one of those loop combos, but there are so many variations. What combo(s) specifically should I start with? Thanks!
By the time most of you guys are awake, [media=youtube]FAf3twZCrC4"[/media] regarding wavedashing and avoiding the ground recovery game should be processed. Though it can be applied to other character, I chose Storm mainly because I found out about it while using her, but also because theoretically she seems to better employ this technique than most other characters because of her instant air float and jump cancelable attacks.
Let me know what you guys think. I don’t know if this stuff has already been discovered. I might just be reinventing the wheel. =\
cr.:l::h::s: sjc :h::s: :qcb::atk::atk: can’t remember the damage values but its pretty decent damage for such a piss easy combo since hail storm is just delicious. Don’t even bother with the loops yet, just focus on learning this combo, then getting the hang of her movement, her tri-dashes, her floats, and instant overheads.
Plus keep in mind, I see a lot of storms ignoring this, elemental rage can punish almost any ground based move from full screen. Projectiles, projectile hypers, hyper sentinel force, regular sentinel force, you name it so long as it has recovery she can punish it. Sorry it just irritates me when i see storms sitting there with 4 bars, eating hyper sentinel chip.
@Lord: Well I didn’t know so thats one person who learnt something from your video, but on a side note I had 2 quick questions for you if you don’t mind. One, if you THC with storm on point, does hail storm start on the first frame? Like can it still be knocked out by projectiles? and 2 in your video you DHCed from hail storm into nade launcher pretty easily so I was wondering if that was exclusive to the corner or you could do if from anywhere on the screen? Thanks.
