SSF4 Sakura Character Specific Combos

Dunno about Juri but on the twins you can do cl MK, tatsu, cl MK, tatsu, cr HP, tatsu, cr HP, tatsu, cr MK, dp!

Look at 4:39! AWESOME match!

im not even sure how that 2nd cr.hp reached him there 0_o

Its twin specific, their hitbox is extremely weird…
I wish I could plink mk properly otherwise I’d do this all the time on twins but I suck at hp enough as it is…
You can also do st HP, tatsu, st LP, cr HP, tatsu, cr MK, dp on Cody which is fairly easy!
Ryu/Ken/probably a lot of other characters you can do st MK, tatsu, st LP, cr HP, tatsu, cr MK, dp for easier combos than the normal BnBs and also do more stun me thinks but slightly less damage… never really bothered testing cos they all require you to be right next to the opponent and hit the first hit which you rarely get a chance to unless you fight scrubs :confused:

Was using that Cody combo last night, that’s like 40% meterless, so silly lol

Yup, its 413 damage if started with jump in HK/HP and opponent is above 50% health (y)
Also how did it go last night?
Also any luck on uploading the Otoshi set up problems video?

I was out at locals the last couple nights, tied up with sweetest’s day tonight, will hopefully get video recorded tomorrow

recorded a bunch of samples of the Cody combo including some more practical versions, video will be coming tomorrow sometime

I wanted to add a couple more variations but my hands are just not cooperating at all tonight lol :frowning:

Lol nice. Thanks for the shoutouts. You don’t plink cl.hp after srk fadc?

I attempt to, but my hands are awful the past two nights. I hadn’t realized that I hadn’t hit any of the plinks until tonight when I was clipping the video, I was amazed that I actually hit the links, lol.

You could do the cl.mk x 2 version for an impractical one. & Fergus’ variation also.

I want to do more of these after I render all of the stuff I have already, probably will do E.Ryu next since I like beating up on him.

That E.Ryu one is janky and inconsistent. :expressionless: I’d do the Viper & Adon/Juri ones first. The E.Ryu one is even more timing/spacing specific than just being a tight link. There’s also one on Cammy that’s inconsistent as well. But I don’t like to depend on these ones since I can’t always guarantee they’ll work. The Viper & Adon/Juri ones are consistent though.

I do the same stuff, hit links but when I check replays I haven’t plinked once (y)

Dont think I’ve seen these variations yet, but maybe you already know them and just didnt post them :D:

Its mostly cross up variations of the already known ones

Against cody after you cross up with jump mk, do cl.mk, xx tatsu, st. lp. cr. hp xx tatsu > cr, mk xx sho, /sweep
so basically just start with cl mk instead of hp

Against adon instead of doing cl hp you can start with cr. hp too and it will still be a meaty tatsu, migth not seem like much but if you do this against cody or juri the cr. mk will whiff so I thought it was worth mentioning

Also if you do the cross up version, I found out cr. mk, xx tatsu, cr. hp xx tatsu > cr. mk sho/sweep seems to be the most consistent, it works from almost any cross up, except the really weirdly spaced ones.Sometimes the normal cl hp> cr. hp works too but you gotta have a reallly deep one and it will probably only work 10% of the time where as when you start off with cr.mk it will probably work atleast 90% of the time.

An added benefit is, that it will still work if you just empty jump into cr. mk for a cross up low mix up

edit: sorta found another one, but gotta get a practical setup for it first

against sakura, if their front feet are overlapping during the beginning of her standing animation you can do cl hp xx tatsu cr. hp xx meaty tatsu

also sometimes jab > cr. mp xx tatsu , cr. hp xx tatsu seems to be working but not sure about that one yet gotta mess around with it a bit more.

Interesting, didn’t think of trying with crossups…
On Yun/Yang you can do like, crossup MK, stMK, tatsu, crHP. tatsu, crHP, tatsu, crMK xx DP.
395 damage which isn’t bad and also meterless (y)
The original (1 in the Uryo v Nemo vid) does 418 damage and requires 3 1 frame links and this one only requires 2 1 frame links for only 23 less damage… but yeah, this is only on crossups and the other is off frontal so meh… it isn’t a choice really :stuck_out_tongue:

Been trying out the sakura one a lot, but its sooo inconsistent :(. Like you can sometimes do it from tatsu to cl hp, cr hp, but then all of a sudden it stops working again :. Been messing aroudn with focus, you can do it somewhat consistently after a level 3 focus, if you delay the cl hp a bit, but who actually allows you to do that anyway lol

For the Sak one off of crossup j.mk I had before I was hoping to kind of pair it with crossup safe jump setups so that it’s actually practical.

Isnt it already practical?
