Rufus Combo Thread - You can't learn kung fu in a day!

So do I dash out before the HP.GT actually connects? Are we using the windbox to elongate the combo? I’m at work or else I would just test it out. Oh and I’m new to Rufus as of this weekend, I know nothing about the character yet lol

It should look like you’re dash cancelling out of the normal. For Rufus, the dash cancelling works like a 2-in-1 with the forward input at the end of the quarter-circle registering as the first input of the dash, so you only need to hit forward one more time for the dash to come out.

midscreen: divekick, cl HP x LK messiah kick, LK followup does 278 for no meter, doesn’t push them as far as cl HP x HP tornado though. haven’t checked if cl HP x LK messiah works on all characters.

It does work on all characters.

Does anyone know if you can do restand tag combos off of Messiah Kick~MK in the corner? Tried it once before but I thought I just had bad timing with it.

Been working on making Law my #2 character because I can do this combo off of one meter which does crazy damage. (1 meter besides the ultra finish)

Pardon the nubness new to sfxt.
I assume tc is target combo? Ie light, medium, hard?

solid7x2 · 2012-04-15T01:18:18.000Z

Oh wait probably lk hk?

Xiahou · 2012-04-15T04:42:11.000Z

LK > F.HK

LMH is usually referred to as ABC.

Dhalsim22 · 2012-04-16T01:34:39.000Z

i found a combo in training , works mid screen , i dont know if anyone found it before
anyway here it is

Dive Kick > (Target Combo lk > f.hk) > (Target Combo lk > f.hk) > df.mk > super art or cross art
or if no bar , u can try to do normal at the end instead of super , didnt try any special move

LouieBH · 2012-04-16T02:20:56.000Z

xiahou after a cross rush combo with rufus coming in are you doing Cl.hp xx CADC, TC sweep?

Xiahou · 2012-04-16T14:53:43.000Z

Imo it’s too tight to be doing after a launch but it is possible. Do it after switch cancelling moves like dps and heihaci double uppercuts.

I made a video covering Rufus’ combo options, if anyone knows a more damaging combo (all of the ground ones start with divekick) then be sure to post as I’d like to know

Full combo notes are in the description.

Ha, this was exactly what I was looking for yesterday. Great stuff, mubress.

Actually Rufus’s most damaging combo off a divekick is:

DK, TC, TC, DF.MK, HP, CADC - 294DMG. The ending might not do damage but you recover faster and build a little meter. Got the idea from dhalsim’s combo above.

After the EX GT > double fs.HK go for HP instead of c.MK. You have to be closer but it’s easy if you do the HK’s a little later than usual and walk forward for the HP. Anyway, nice video and congrats on front page.

Edit: Where did the OP go? It kind of bothers me that we have to search through 50 posts to find some combos when the first post should have a list of them.

Best rufus tbh

I guess CADC means “charge attack dash cancel”?

Thanks, I couldn’t land the st.hp when I was checking things out the other day but I’ve just tried and like you say just walk a bit more. That meterless dk combo is sweet thanks, not as difficult as you’d expect either.

Yes. At least, I’m pretty sure it does cuz I haven’t checked but it must do, that’s the only thing that makes sense

To build on this combo and possibly some set ups, im trying to see if theres a way to land meaty tornados when they quickstand care to help test?
