[Newbie] Storm Thread - Q & A

no… last time i checked, you can do something like… (although i don’t know why you’d want to…)…

tj(hold up), lk, hp, hk, land, call sent, lp, lk, lk, LA xx LS…

i’d rather just launch them… but you CAN do that… you can’t do normal jump, LA xx LS… but last i checked you can just do a ground LA xx LS… because the game doesn’t register it as an attack that started in the air… same reason why you can use psylocke, go qcf+hk, mash that shit, and then cancel it into kikou gakure… even though the move lifted you up into the air…

Even if it worked, it’d be pointless unless you wanted to DHC.

It’s the tri-hp that threw me off. First time I’d ever seen something like that.

It’s cool dude… Yeah, I’m the only person who writes them like that I think. Kind of makes sense in a way…

About as much sense as “head-chest-balls”. :looney:

Lol, hey well, it works for me… I used to find the timing on that infinite really wierd to get, but once you understand where to actually hit him it becomes a lot easier to do…

:lol:

lol, I love you DemonDash.

It’s not difficult at all. nj uf with lk and as soon as you get off the ground, move the joystick to forward. You have a long time to move the stick to forward (as soon as you jump until about when the hp hits).

in normal jump mode u only get one action so once u use it u cant use any more actions but once u land everything is reset so u can do la xx ls on the ground

Rushdown basics

so i have the bread and butter of storm down. her air combo with the LA>XXLS and the ground combo to hailstorm and the newbie/top player runaway game. But i want to rush down. I’m learning msp so i know how to tri jump with mags but i have a problem with storm. I don’t have hours to be dedicating to practice mode or going through the 80 pages of this thread cuz a brotha has to work and mags takes mad work(coughrom infinitecough) Could anyone give me her tri jump/rushdown technique?

I actually found the rom easier to get that Storm’s rush down…

Nice… from what i’ve learned from playing around with her, she falls so quickly after her addf lk. I know if i hold up i can get two hits in and the c. lk but man that seems hard. That and her addf hp is hard as well. If the rom is easier than her rushdown then i’m kinda scared. When i manage to rushdown with her its real shaky at best. Give me a little something to start with. A basic rushdown technique :confused:

there isnt really too much technique you need to learn. just learn how to rush with a lk, learn to rush by holding up during a tryjump to get two hits (works WONDERS), and once you’ve got everything down. practice practice practice. mixing up all that will result in the ability to utilize strategy because now you’ve got more weapons to use.

That’s what I mean, there’s so many aspects of Storm’s rush down you need to work on. In reality, the rom is quite simple as it concists of one technique. Storm on the other hand has many little quirks you need to get used to. See the rom thread for more.

Be like rawbzilla and just run your ass off all day.

A good player once told me, “rush gets you awesome, running wins you games”

how unfortunate, but it’s the truth!

I’ve seen that in a lot of match play. Sentinel, Cable, Storm all have nasty keep away games. Seeing a storm on storm battle is the worst when players are just building meter and typhoonXXhailstorming. Once in one of the ranbats i saw a game end with 5 players all with more than 50% life. I’d rather be awesome and run when there’s 10 seconds left. Other than that i’m going for the kill.

I’m naturally a runner with Storm so that might bring luck on my side… Eventually…

yeah. me too. most of my matches are keep-away based.

thats why when it comes toureny time, no one is using rushdown with storm, don’t mistake seconds of pressure to see if they can get lucky a “rushdown” when they run 90% of the time.

Anyone that says run away Storm is scrubby or lame isn’t playing marvel thats for damn sure.
