Only works with EX spark.
damn i was hoping it would have worked without the use so i could use the meter for more things.
So…what’s the big deal, this isn’t a new discovery, it’s a trial mode combo. It’s not that hard to do either. The thing is A) meter and B) confirming it. If we get it down, have the meter and do it in a punish situation, yeah…it’s good. But otherwise, you’re blowing 75% on a short blockstring. I don’t think we can really hit confirm cr.MK into EX into FADC. Maybe confirm the hit on the EX spark and then FADC, but still…it’s pretty fast.
If you’re building meter quickly vs. fireball characters, something to try.
Also note that LP soul spark does combo into Ultra…just not in that setup. Not entirely a useful combo, but it’s there.
Is it possible to do: lp, lp, lp xx EX soul spark FADC Ultra? That would make it a decent hit confirm combo, but I’m thinking the spacing doesn’t work. Sorry if this is purely theory fighter bs, but I’m at work and can’t test it.
I think that might work…scaled quite badly, but possible.
At least we can confirm if we need to do the ultra or not I guess, but this is far from a more ideal shoto-ish DP > FADC > ultra situation. I can see the combo’s value as punishing something, but I’d probably only do it if it killed and if straight up ultra would be too slow to punish, since normally I’m not sure if the damage increase is quite worth the meter. And if you can’t do it 100%, oops, blocked ultra xx dying.
But you just said it’s not hard to do. 
And fuck that c.lp c.lp c.lp shit… Why didn’t Rose get any easy Balrog/Shoto shit. c.lp c.lk c.mp much more reliable. You can EX Soul Spark from that. But I’m not sure if it puts you at the right distance to fadc into ultra… Because I can’t even get that string down 100%.
I think it’ll be easy if you can get the Ex Soul Spark(Hold F), FADC, F down for almost an instant dash.
Her strings get scaled badly…For example…Her crossup j.mk cr.lp cr.lk cr.mp Drill xx Super does 376 or so dmg whilst her crossup j.mk cr.mp/cr.mk does 400+ points of dmg…I think its best to stick to her cr.mk/mp EX Spark FADC Ultra…less hit confirmable but u still can do pressuring strings on block/a throw…Her strings to Drill sometimes (like 1 in 10 occurences) randomly whiffs as well
I was being objective. Compare it to combos involving ultras where you might just miss some of your hits or whiff juggling with it and being able to recover. With Rose’s, you get it or you don’t and there aren’t any juggle situations. Yeah, it’s not super difficult in training mode, but I don’t know if I’d trust myself to be able to do it in real matches. I guess that’s why we’re discussing the validity of it here.
Yeah, it’s not something too practical unfortunately.
I’d much rather just counter hit someone with a FA and then Ultra than trying to combo into it.
Saqs - I tried to coment on one of your youtube matches, but it wouldn’t go though:sad: A paragraph wasted…:sad:
Ok I just played around with this combo for a bit (I can’t even get it with c.mp) and I found it’s like only ONE spot you can really land it on. To me it’s possible but it has to be set up and you need the confidence to try and actually pull it. I wouldn’t even try to use it in an actual match haha. Cause one her Ultra is blocked g_g
Apologies if this has been mentioned already, I did have a quick check. On eventhubs, one of her combos listed is:
Jump in with Hard Kick, Crouching Hard Punch, Cancel into Medium Punch Soul Spark, Cancel into Level 2 Focus Attack, Ultra
I can only do this with an EX soul spark. Is the MP soul spark possible?
Doesnt it work with a LP one? Much easier and normally the same effect
Couldn’t pull it off with LP soul spark either. It could just be my scrubiness.
Eh, MP spark can combo from…anything? That combo might make sense if MP spark did more stun/recovered earlier, but I don’t think that’s the case. They probably meant EX, but I’ll try it when I get home…which will be like 10 hours from now blarg.
It’d have to be a EX Spark as it’d hit twice, leaving you just about enough time to charge the lvl2 FA for the crumple.
Oh, when I read it I thought it said FADC. Otherwise, yeah, no way you could get level 2 crumple without EX.
this may be common knowledge but…
i was in training last night practicing with the new stick. i found out that you can buffer her super in the air for a long time IN EITHER DIRECTION before you hit the ground and it will come out.
if your on the right, and jump over for a cross up, 214 214 ppp will work on landing AS WELL AS 236 236ppp. some times she will do a f.P before landing and then whip out the ultra all on the one button combination press.
(i would also like to admit here that my problems with soul reflect were completely user error, i thought they were reverse srk’s instead of reverse hado’s…just had to get that off my chest -_-)
Man… Sometimes I see Sagat DP into TK juggle, and I ask myself, why can’t Rose do something like that off of a HP Reflect? Besides her Super and a EX fireball which only hits once. It’s not going to make her OP. Far from it.
yea, i see sagat’s and claw’s doing all kinds of juggle hits, juggle throws from EX moves. its unfortunate that this was overlooked for rose because i really would love to use this move more.
