<a href="/profile/4506/Wantonx">Wantonx</a> said:I did something last night in a match I’ve never done and don’t recall seeing (though I could totally be wrong). During some back and forth poking (me - Jack opp.- bison) my character couldn’t keep up too well and I read a low coming, activated pandora, then immediately super with my incoming character. It worked like a cross assault instant super but wayyy more damage obviously.Anyone seen/done this before? I thought it was neat. I was yelling to my wife sitting near me “did you see that shit???”, she didn’t think it was all that so it may not be special lol<br><br><br>Yeah, I’ve done it many times. Was facing that RindoKanMaster guy and went for a crossup MK Kuma, he blocked and did Law’s punch special, hit Pandora with Kuma as he was backing up, brought in Guy and instant supered him as he was still coming forward in the special move. If you pick up opponent tendencies it’s pretty funny, catching Ryu’s cr.HK in startup, Pandora, super etc.<br><br>My buddy was checking his player data…got his 1500th Pandora win the other night. Dat Kuma.<br><br>Hmmm, how come my quoted stuff doesn’t look as cool as your guys. Where’s the grey box?<br><blockquote class=“Quote”>

http://youtu.be/EA31zZCyw8I<br><br>This video’s random and scrubby so for the most part just ignore next to everything you see in it, but if there’s anything you need to see it’s the very last combo, does 705 without gems and 746 with gems (super boost effect/immense power).

<div class=“QuoteText”>I just went into training mode and fiddled around with Akuma and Pandora. There is a trick to his raging demon that I wanted to explore. For those of you that don’t know: you can input forward MP while quickly inputting the raging demon. You will get the start of the animation for forward MP (which is an overhead) followed by raging demon.<br />
<br />
I couldn’t do it with the timing I learned in SSFIV. So I had to relearn the timing and the shortcuts. I got it to work in SfXTk too. The input is forward+lp+mp twice (real fast!) followed by lk+HP (real fast again). I was able to pull off 3 (three) raging demons during an extended Pandora, starting at full meter. In SSFIV this was unblockable and unjumpable. I’m assuming this applies here too. The super art damage gem doesn’t work with raging demon. ;-( But the Pandora damage gem does. Raging demon does 435 damage with the gem in Pandora. 3 of those is enough to even kill Hugo at full health. WIthout the extend gem I could only do one (starting at zero meter). Still 435 damage isn’t too bad for an unblockable unjumpable move.</div>

Try using the alternative input for cleaner results. Learn how to do the demon by doing overhead with your ring finger, jab with middle finger, jab with index finger, short with thumb, fierce with ring/pinky finger

So, just so people who use my characters know.
If you can get the opponent air borne, Nina and Akuma are both capable of setting up Pandora by use of overhead (Nina) and close stand RH (Akuma). Haven’t found anything for Sakura yet…

You can set it up from Nina’s Overhead?<br>I was trying that in training mode a bit ago, and I could never follow up anything :<<br><br>Do you just need to use it earlier in the combo?<br>

As soon as you get them air borne, overhead then pandora. <div>With Akuma it’s trickier since you need something like a cross up tatsu to get close enough to cl  RH them. </div>

I swear all I do with Sakura is press fucking buttons and hope that people aren’t blocking. Half the cast in this game is too hard to play footsies against. So I just jump at you with a tatsu, hope you don’t AA and start pressing shit and CADC’ing all over the place.

So here it is!! The first of two Pandora compilation videos, this one featuring a collection of all the sick Pandora wins (many which are clutch) from the first month of ver. 2013. Seriously hope you guys enjoy this one, and keep that hype going cause there’s another video coming ;)<br><br>http://youtu.be/Xoxg8vBKbwA<br>

412

And here’s the second part, the compilation of tech videos from several community members (you know who you are ;). It’s got some really impressive stuff, and alot of these combos can be done in matches (and in some cases, have been done!!). There’s a decent amount of character variety for this one so I hope everyone can enjoy it. Also, tell me which combo was your favourite!!<br><br>http://youtu.be/q5z8vzdjsEI<br>

My two videos got featured on Eventhubs!! Big round of applause for everybody that contributed to these videos, you’re the stars of the show and once again we’ve shown off the might and usefulness of Pandora. It may not have been in the same way as Vanilla, where we shed sweat, blood and tears to prove that it was viable, but at least we’ve kept on the tech train and continued to develop stuff for it. I had feared that with Pandora becoming easier it’d be anyone’s thing, but I feel like having more people contribute has actually made it more exciting to see tech, and beneficial for everyone in general. That, and us original Pandora guys have still managed to lead the pack with our Pandora tech videos. So good job everyone, glad to be working with you guys on this mechanic =]<br><br><a href=“http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/feb/24/street-fighter-x-tekken-v2013-pandora-mode-compilation-videos-practical-combos-set-ups-and-wins-using-various-characters/”>http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2013/feb/24/street-fighter-x-tekken-v2013-pandora-mode-compilation-videos-practical-combos-set-ups-and-wins-using-various-characters/</a> <br>

Thanks to the ‘Bob Cancel’  my Bob & Julia team can setup Julia’s Pandora-super from literally hit confirm, pretty convenient as my Bob is usually on the receiving end of a beating due to his obvious weaknesses, Bob + Pandora extend gems is how I win half my matches lol.<br><br>http://youtu.be/fpPsAKFvxcM<br>
