[Newbie] Cable Thread - Q & A (How to do AHVB inside)

help on grenade combo

have you guys seen the combo vid of cable on bearcade.com?
he did launch,sj.lp,sj.lk,grenade…the grenade connects.how the fuck do you do that? i tried it but sometimes the grenade explodes late…i’m not even holding the damn button. help appreciated…

tap the kick button, and do it quickly

The leeway on AHVBx3 on a standing opponent is pretty good. You don’t have to do the second TK motion quickly - in fact, you can even do a slowish TK motion so you normal jump and AHVB. Once you have two, the third is easy - normal or super jump up, start the qcf motion as you jump, hit the buttons when you get in range.

Slowly? hmmm. Ill try it tomarrow.

beginner AHVB

I know that the AHVB is d,d/f,f/u,f + pp, but when u do the f,f does cable actually suppose to go forward or, do u goto u,f so fast that he doesnt get a chance.

beginner AHVB

welll i’mma try to help…

i honestly don’t kno what your doing when you do an AHVB… but if trying to ask if cable is supposed to go forward when he does an AHVB… then no

when i first started playing cable i did a complete full circle starting from back going counter-clock wise

now i just do a 3/4th’s circle starting from back ending at up

hope this helps

AHVBx3. down,forward,up,forward +PP. you will jump an inch off the ground and own everyone :slight_smile: dont do timeflip super , its pretty much useless to me …

Ahvb the ahvb?

Does anyone have a clip of this, i’ve only thought it was possible as a counter or maybe even a “high” viper beam.

The block stun should cover your fall which is recovery so … can you?

yes. Cable can ahvb the ahvb. that’s what you’re asking right?

If your opponent’s AHVB is done very close to the ground, no. If you are not blocking the last few hits of the AHVB, yes. If you are both in the air, adn the opponent is a little above you (maybe even same level, not sure, yes). If he is doing from below you, no.

I think that is it.

I have a question similar to that. I read somewhere that Cable can AHVb a blocked c.Hp from Mags. I can never do it, and even in top player videos I don’t see people doing it. Is this really possible and, if so, really practical?

Possible, yes. Practical, no. Cable can AHVB the lag on a standing jab if need be. But if you block a crouching fierce from mags; that would mean you’re a little to close to him meaning the beam wouldn’t do to much damage.

okay, well it’s just that i heard in cable vs. cable you can’t even chip each other with ahvb. I’m guessing you don’t do it because you may mess up and do it too high and get blasted afterwards.

Ahvb the ahvb.

Yes, both cable will get hit and no more Ahvb x 2-5.
This will happen when both cable do AHVB at the same time or a little time different.
just depended how skillful of your Ahvb.

You can do it, but chipping other cable would probably be a good idea only if you are trying to kill or have 4 or 5 bars, and pan to keep at least 3.

Because if you are Cable with 3 bars, your opponent can not call assists safely. If you have 2 or less, most times he can. cable with 3 or more bars have an advantage against Cable with 2 or less (I mean more control, not just more bars), all other things being equal, of course.

How many Ahvb’s can you do???

i would like to ask how many Ahvbs can you do in a single combo??? My friends says 4, some people here says 5, but i could only do three… here’s my combo:

c.lk,c.mp,s.hkXXAHVB,AHVB,(jump)AHVB

my first two AHVB’s are done with qcf+uf, then the third with normal jumpXXAHVB.

is 4x,5x AHVBS really possible?? :confused: any techniques?? :confused:

P.S. i’m not talkin’ bout AHVBing your opponents assist, only their main character

I can do 4 AHVB with mid characters like cable and with sentinel i can do 5

I can hit 6 on Servbot in training. :cool:

I can barely get 3 in a fight though :bluu: .

If I have inf. special on in training mode, I can hit 19-20 on servbot, just gotta time that shit.

5 on sentinel,juggs and blackheart… i’ve only tried 4 on medium sized characters… i think ahcb’s work too…

4 on all normals. Never messed around against servebot… 5 on juggy, BH, Sent, etc. is pretty easy.
