SJC Help!

yea it was covered in this [media=youtube]TkMKlgJdy3c&feature=related"[/media]
around the 8:40 mark

if you do mp sjc u2 and fuck up the motions, the game will register it as a mp neckbrecker even tho u only press mp once. gotta love ssf4

Something that has helped me during SJC practice: watching my hands as I do the inputs. I won’t even look at the screen at first. This way I can practice getting clean inputs over and over until I hit the moves consistently. After awhile, muscle memory kicks in and I don’t have to look at my hands any more.

Also, when I practice SJC into U2, I’m finding that using a half circle (into up-forward) for the first motion keeps me from doing an EX Kazegiri.

Thaaaank you so much… i did not think to QCFU… i always tried using QCFupward…

I’ve been working on the SJC Dash, and I took a vid to study the correct motion/timing. The video was recorded at 30 FPS, and I slowed playback down to 15 FPS. Monitor being played on is an ASUS VH236. Pardon the low quality and the mess in the background. :slight_smile:

Good work Marco. Thanks for this. Helps a lot. i know there are already a couple of vids in this thread of the lp mp hp sjc into ultra 2 but if somebody could do a top down slow mo vid of the action of performing this i would appreciate it.

iv tried both methods…buffering with limited success and zero success doing the motion after pressing hp. Im doing it really quickly and i get nothing. i slow it down and im too slow. if i could visualise the hand motion then this would show me whether im anywhere near nailing this. thanks in advance.

Im getting it about 80% of the time now. Buffering the QCF into the s.MK. Im having trouble canceling out of the s.LP, s.MP, s.HP Target Combo. Im sure its just a timing thing because my motions are on point.

I have a big problem getting the Command Dash out though on the Launcher TC. I read earlier someone said to use a Negative Edge.

What exactly is this ??

Do you have to buffer the input for ultra 2 when you SJC target combo 4? I can get it about 40% of the time but never sure if I can relax on the input during the m.p and h.p

I’m starting to get the lp,mp,d+hk,hk -> sjc -> command dash down.

I realized when i did the target combo before my inputs weren’t clean, after i cleaned them up and did the exact motions it started to become more consistent (i.e. before i would do something like lp,mp,d+hk,d+hk,hk really rapidly rather than just slowing it down and doing it right).

Being new to TCs and SJC this is really tough for me. I cannot even imagine being able to pull this off in the middle of a fight right now.

On a better note, in the long run I think this will make my execution a lot more tight.

It’s funny you say that, I find TCs way easier than regular links.

tcs are way easier than real links. i dont see how anyone says other wise.

i cannot for the life of me get the lp, mp, d+hk, hk sjc command dash down. really gotta grind that shit out haha. sjc ultra from the lp, mp, hp tc is easier to me.

I think the SJC has some sort of timing to it like a link or something since sometimes my inputs are perfect according to the input display but the SJC command dash doesn’t come out.

There’s a slight delay in inputting the SJC command dash after inputting the second HK of the target combo. In my video above, I buffered the motion during the 2nd kick animation, and inputted the HK for the command dash right as the last part of the TC hit.

I spent hours and hours on TC 6 > SJC command dash. Honestly, though, I don’t know how useful this really is. DP mashers will beat it (unless you block after the command dash), and the cross up doesn’t look all that ambiguous. I’d probably spend more time on SJC > U2 set-ups, so that you can land it after a hit confirm.

What am i doing wrong if after TC6 > dash i get a jump and sometimes a kick right as i leave the ground? Too early or too late? I can do it like 10 -15% of the time but the rest of the time i get a jump.

I tried for 2 hours doing the LP,MP,HP SJC U2, with little success. played bad company for 4 hours, and then came back to it, got it 5 times in a row using double half circle inputs from down to up and barely hitting the gate at all. of course, after those 5 times, couldn’t get it again.
another thing was that I turned the dummy to block all so that when I did hit it I would be able to remember the timing more easily than watching the entire animation again.
I was definitely hitting it though, I’ve done it enough times to know when the ultra flash starts if it would combo from the hard punch.

alright hope this might be useful to some of u guys. my nub friends asked me to do it, and then i got 2 messages from SRK people asking on how to do it exactly. so i hope this vid can come in handy ><!! lol

SJC after combo targets

also, i believe all of u know this but i will just post it in case someone dont know em. here are all the execution commands u can use in doin SJC to U2

1- qcf x2, f/u+ 3Kick (could be dont as HCF as well ofcourse) >> i use this as my main notation on Arcade joysticks
2- 2x f,d,f/d , and then f/u+ 3 Kicks
3- example: TC lp,mp, qcf+FP and then qcf(or Hcf) f/u+ 3 kicks (u can also do buffer qcf+hp, and then f,d,f/d, f/u + 3kicks)
4- Motion from b/d,d, f/d, f, f/u, u, b/u, b, d/b, d, f/d, f, f/u +3x kick ( 1 full circle starting from d/b, the second circle ends at f/u) <<< i use this as my main on PS3 controller
5- f,d,f,d,f, f/u+ 3 kicks

I think the fact that it’s forgiving makes it harder for me.

Links don’t come out unless you input them pretty much perfectly, so you know for sure that you are doing it wrong if it isn’t. With this understanding I was able to practice them and get them clean.

Target combos are so forgiving that you can pretty much get them to work with horrible timing and even double tapping etc…sloppy…the problem when combining it with a SJC is that you can’t do it sloppy anymore. I can’t really tell if the reason I’m not doing the SJC is due to my craptacularly sloppy TC input or something else. The sloppy timing also got ingrained in my muscle memory so I had to relearn it and make sure i was doing the exact input (for example before I was doing lp,mp,down+mk,down+mk, mk, mk and it was working…had to clean it up to lp,mp,down+mk,mk).

It’s HK not MK.

facepams …fail…I mean HK…clearly not thinking clearly trying to post while working.

ive been practicing for days now and i still cant get it down when i try to do a target combo into command dash it never comes out or i just do a sjc
im constantly checking my inputs and i get lp,mp,down,down+hk,down foward,foward,upfoward,upfoward hk and i get nothing from that i know those inputs are wrong but thats what i keep getting can someone help me straighting out my inputs and why am i getting those inputs like i try to be clean but im getting random inputs for no reason
