noone has video from the crosscounter stream a couple days ago?
Icekid was playing Task/Hawkeye/Sent and his point Taskmaster was too beastly, its something everyone in this thread should be taking notes on. He was shooing everyone away in the post tourney casual matches, Flocker (who won the tourney), Ryan Hunter, everrrryyyyone
edit: CALLING ICEKID TO THE THREAD. Easily the #1 Taskmaster
video featuring the ability to combo from corner to corner off of both ground and air throws throws using assists and the mighty swing cancel.
also shows the hitconfirm used if you land a j.h on a guy trying to throw you while you chickenblock. the “less float” property on the j.h means that you can convert them into a full combo instead of just having to super really early on and losing meter.
i forgot to put in the corner crossup reset off the shock sting but basically if you hit them into the corner with a shock sting and you’re close by you can mighty swing xx single down arrow and it forces them to tech immediately while you end up on the other side already recovered.
almost forgot about this. you can combo off sword of the black knight with swing canceling+ assist too… bar build is positive gain unless you super at the end. does 700k with super, 500k without
Combo video I made for Ammy, Spencer, and Task. Not all that much Task stuff since it’s focused around the team and he’s my anchor, so usually I don’t have assist for him and just do basic stuff, but there’s enough cool specialized stuff that it should still be interesting.
Was messing around with Task & Trish this morning and thought I’d share three little pieces. Didn’t know if this was good enough but I figured no harm since these are very short videos and they may help someone come up with better stuff.
You can create a pretty nice reset situation in the middle of Task’s simple BnB if you’ve started a combo with heavy damage scaling (i.e. a multi-hitting assist) The chain I used was ( Peekaboo = :a1: ) :
cr.:l: , cr:m: , cr.:h:, Spidey Swing [ :f: + :h: ], j. , j. , Spidey Swing [ :f: + :h: ] , j., j. , j.:s: + :a1:,
You can OTG someone with Peekaboo after a forward ground throw.
Foward Throw [:f: + :h:], Spidey Swing & Peekaboo [ :f: + :h: + :a1:] xx Aim Master :h: (one arrow)

You can replicate (sort of) the traditional Wesker corner reset with Task & Peekaboo if you OTG after a hard knock down with a single down arrow. Tried it in a couple of matches and either got a throw or used to stuff any attacks people threw out (probably from mashing.) I guess no one expects it so that’s why it worked, but I’m sure people can come up with better stuff than this:
:l: , , :h: , Shield Skills [ + :h: ] xx :s: , j. , j. , j.:h: , Spidey Swing [ :f: + :h: ], j.:h: , j.:s: , :a1: + :u: , j.Aim Master :h: (one arrow) [:d::df::f: + :h:] , land , Air Throw [ :h: ] xx Air Legion Arrow [ :d::df::f: + :h: ]
hey guys just posting a video of two other variations of taskmasters BNB combos that i use. First one involves comboing 3 swings at the beginning and the second one is comboing his M. arrow off a swing from full screen.The first might look a bit unconventional and it does require some weird timing but i think the dmg it provides is a good payoff. If you can really mash well during the supers you can get as high ash 976k in dmg.Any suggestions are appreciated.
nice combos… anyways, i have one question for any task player who wanna answered…
My team is Taskmater/Spencer/Hawkeye. I usually do a combo mixing the swig´s after the S on air i made rejump xx air down arrow and call spencer vertical grapple assit charging star and relaunch again…
The question is wich assist has more hitstun and Damage scaling?? Haweye triple arrow or Spencer vertical grapple
But to answer the question above, slant shot will probably stop you from doing longer combos if you use it early simply because it wastes more time. Time is all that matters because hitstun is timer based.
