Could you get cr.mp xx ex spark to connect with u1 too?
All of those setups are range dependent so you can get +13 with your ex spark.
I imagine you can against the crouching characters, but you have to be really out of range lol.
Anyone found out that you can combo into a sweep after a ex spark in the corner? Found this while i was trying out that honda-only u1 combo. However, this only works during crouching and in the corner. Works on Honda and Abel so far.
Rose’s bnb into ex sparks -> sweep works on a crouching Honda.(note: lp lk cr.mp ex spark sweep wont work if you are too close to Honda.)
cs.mk lp lk cr.mp ex sparks sweep is the only link that works on a crouching Abel(almost looked liked the sweep was gonna whiff but it didnt).
I think this is something worth learning. I won’t have to use 2 meters to FADC.
It literally works against only 2 character who have big crouching hitboxes >.>
I’ll try to share one setup I have experimented:
After a back throw, if you whiff a Forward dash and a Slide, you will recover exactly 2 frames before your opponent wakes up(except for the weird character that does not stand up with normal speed).
The nasty thing of this is that it feels like the slide will not recover in time but it does. Then, you have a whole range of mind game options ^^:
- meaty throw or wait and throw
- meaty Close MK or lk.
- Bait and punish Srk or Ultra
Of course this setup works best when you have conditionned your opponent that he cannot Srk/Ultra you.
I usually try one or twice the throw mixup.
Then I block to bait my opponent reversal so he learns that he cannot spam SRk or Ultra by blocking.
Then next Time, I can mixup with Throw /Close Mk to punish his throw or tech throw attempt on his wake up.
Back Dash will usually make the setup whiff but you should be able to OS it.
Cl MK OS U1
Of course this is all mind games… What will my opponent do ? what option should I choose? But as Rose has not that many safe jump setup, I think this one is a good card to play and can enhance your wake up game.
One day hopefully!
Not sure if known but a counterhit meaty cr.mp can link into another cr.mp.
Note: Cr.mp active frames is 3.
CH Meaty cr.mp > cr.mp > spiral
CH Meaty cr.mp > cr.lk > cr.mp > ex spiral works also
Not that practical but you’ll probably have more chance of doing this to Blanka since his electricity and regular upball can be meatied, also resulting in a counterhit.
^didnt know that actually, I sometimes try crmk on walrus as counter hit combos into crmp xx spiral , idk if meaty does though
Walrus lol wakeup*
Couldn’t find any info / video’s about this combo so I made a quick vid for anyone that didn’t know it yet:

Drill xx super > ultra 2 > dash forward/slide
568 Damage
Works anywhere on the screen
Dash is not necessary in the corner.

Some Rose/Blanka trivia.
If Rose and Blanka are fullscreen from each other and Blanka does a fullscreen HP/EX Ball, Rose can just backdash once and the blanka ball animation ends before hitting her. Possible to punish Blanka’s HP/EX Ball, but they recover quick.
Rose max range far st.HK and far st.MK does not get hit at the start up of Blanka’s U1 and you are safe from getting hit by the ultra(imo i prefer far st.MK since it recovers faster) Additionally on blankas wakeup, Rose far st.MK beats out electricity and regular upball and gets a counterhit from them(free st.mk -> cr.mp -> ex spiral) This may actually be useful.
On Blankas wakeup, Rose max range cr.HK can avoid being EX Upball’d. Rose cr.HK get hit by Blankas U1 on startup but you’ll recover from the stun before the ultra even hits you. (Note: Very first hit of Blankas U1 does no damage, just stun).
And screw blankas wonky wakeup time GingerPower
This is an incredibly useful post. You should post this in the matchup thread.
Can anyone explain me what happened at 1:20?
Does her EX reflect let her avoid projectiles?

Thanks in advance.
My apologies for this newb question… I saw a vid with spark FADC ultra 1, guessing this got nerfed? not possible?
not-ex spark i don’t think is possible. but ex-spark cancelled into U1 has always been, and still is.
Awesome! I didn’t realise it needed to be EX which is why I was having trouble. Comboing into this will be incredibly handy!
Going back to (cornered) cr Abel:
Clmk, crlp, crlk, crmp xx ex spak… Into sweep/far hk/slide/piede
Clmk xx ex spark, crlp, crlk, crmp xx ex spark… Into slide/far hk/piede
