ya but u can just do 5B, B, you don’t have to do 5B, 6B pretty sure
Thing about the B, CDC BNB Combo is that I never know when to pull it off. I’ve been stuck using a 6A -> 5B launcher for my combos. Does less damage but it’s gotten me a 75% win rate. and the 3C is a killer on my dying hori ex2 stick.
Also, V-13, How to get out of sword combos without the use of dashing out?
Generally, I use 6a 5b only as an anti-air combo. If I hit a standing opponent, I’m going to use 5b 5cdc etc.
(this is alzarath btw)
if you’re gonna use 6A off of the ground, the basic one i use is 6A, 5B, j.B, j.C, 2D, 5B, sj.B, j.C, djB, j.C, qcf+A
yeah my bad
i know you dont have to land but i think its more confusing personally as djing and 2c again is easier to see imo.
@MrBuster: you got my number right? hit me up when you wanna play i ll show you what i know im not an expert by any means.
sigh… im getting owned so bad using rachel. Any tips? most of the combo starters are a little slower than others, so I can never land much. Any tips for pumpkin use? I find that i always get hit during the summon, before able to send it out with silpheed.
You can move the pumpkin with wind before you actually finish the summon animation. If you’re already doing that, then just summon at farther distances or summon less predictably.
that and what he doesn’t mention: summon after every knockdown. if i have one use on pumpkin left, i’ll bring out another one pronto. if i have a fresh pumpkin, it’s george time.
would you kindly show me how it’s done on live? 
Damn…how do you close in on Nu?
No idea, I spent a couple hours trying to beat Hell difficulty arcade mode tonight with no luck, double-sword Nu was stomping me.
would it be helpful do you think to get some basic and intermediate combos into a video… like more extensive than the ones on the bluray? I know there is that rachel combo video that was up months ago but i’m thinking of a more tutorial-ish type combo video for this game.
agreed.
Seconded.
4 days later, im doing a lot better with Rachel btw.
I dunno how you can function without the pressure of 6B and B > D+C > C
I’m not good enough to warrant teaching you sadly, the only reason I even do decent online is just because i’m okay at 2d fighters.
i still lose to nonsense.
If they’re midscreen and I have the wind, I do this instead of the 5B 5CDC ~~~
5B 6CD j.C 5B 6CD j.C 5B 3C
It pushes them twords the corner further, does a ton of damage, and you still score a knockdown so that you can set up your oki.
5B = same thing as “B” ? or neutral B, yeah? =O
You got it partner!
It’s easier for me to see it as 5B, if it’s just noted “B” it makes me thing there’s a random letter in the middle of the combo for some reason…
gunna try this combo in training mode, two 6CD’s sounds brutal! thanks for clearing that up bro
Took me awhile to get it in training mode… The timing is crutial.
Be sure to set the training dummy to “block after first hit” or else you won’t be learning a “real” combo and it’ll just get blocked in-game.
You run up for the 5B do 6CD and then just as it’s about to do it’s last hit you do the j.C then JUST as she hit’s the ground you do the 5B and repeat…
