Mastering the Mantis: Yang Combo Thread

Totally broke my heart with that :frowning:

Deconfirmed.

The only thing thatā€™s jump cancelable is close mk I think.

ahhhā€¦ it keeps getting better and better!

i wonder if ex palm will hit crouchtechs since its invincible low. hmmmā€¦

bustabust: was daes opponent cornered or was it midscreen?

-dime

Um when dae was playing against cpu dae was mid screen. so yeah if you crumple and can take the win with it do it. shouldve recorded but oh well.

was it a full ultra??

i dont think it was full ultra.

It wasnā€™t a full ultra, if you combo into the u2(besides FA(crumple)) you donā€™t get the full animation I believe

I think hp palm or st. mk in the corner will lead to a full U2 juggle.

Also, you can FADC 2nd rekka and link a full U2 as well.

Doesnā€™t cl.mk xx jump cancel > dive kick whiff > u2 work midscreen for the full combo too?

EDIT:

Also, not impressive but just a visual aid:

Also some corrections could be made to the first post:

HP Slashes are not safe on the 2nd hit.

Up kick is not armor breaking (Iā€™m pretty sure.) and you canā€™t jump cancel it. It can be FADCā€™d though.

QCB Punch palm is armor breaking.

Its safe as hell after the FADCing the 2nd hit of HP Slashes.

Yeah but the misconception is that itā€™s safe after the 2nd hit no matter what, which is quite wrong.

Mago said it was +6 on block, guess he was wrong

He said it was safe IF you FADC it on Block. That it will be +6, on hit its +10.

But that was probably a mistranslation to say it was safe period on 2nd hit.

It was a mistranslation.

I mean if it was +6 on block then cr.lp xx HP slashes (2 hits) > cr.lp xx HP Slashes > etc. would be an infinite block chain.

I mean that would be an infinite on hit too.

Least yang can do it twice even though the damage would be small ā€¦ but the stun would be pretty high, Iā€™ve seen Ryu get stunned after 3 cr mk rekkas.

phoenix just received AE. gonna register as much input for you guys. really leaning towards maining yang.

hopefully, i can catch some things you guys havenā€™t talked about.

i Did want to use yun but suppose ill have to secondary him i just donā€™t want to use a character that everyone is going to jump on plus yang seems a bit more trickier with his ibuki style dash looking forward to some good yang footage

You can juggle after EX Slashes in corner

yangs dash (even lk) is MUCH slower than ibukis.
