The Amaterasu combo thread

I’ve been playing around with the sword BnBs and I found that after the air series->j.S instead of the otg you recover fast enough to use qcf+l to stay off screen just long enough to completely hide a charged glaive j.C.

There is a way around it of just rolling out of the corner but it seems a cool trick to have to catch wakeup assists and general mixup.

It’s not an overhead unfortunately. In glaive stance you have to use instant j.l > df+h > qcf+s to get crouchers.

these glaive combos are frustrating. In 5l 5m 2h 236l 5l nothing ever combos after the 236l what are the options 5l and 2l? I can’t get them to work its depressing.

Here are a few combos videos Imade:

i start to study amaterasu , i like it…
i try to test thoses combos and i found one think on this combo : M, H , 6 H (x5), 214 L, M,H, 6H(x5) super lvl1.

this work midscreen and corner… but…on X23 it doesnt work on the corner…you have to replace the 214L by 214 M for work ;-)…

all the combo work on character but maybe you can adapt your combo? that true you think?

Are the flames on 2S hitting? They should be if you’re getting the charged j.H. Depending on your assist there are a lot of options after the j.H. You may even be able to combo into 214 Super from here and do more reps of j.H. The easiest ender would be 6HHHHH(charged).

buffer the 236l fast and mash 5/2l or 5m, the second 236L you can delay(so the character doesn’t end up too high). If he does end up too high after the second 236L just do launcher.

If you just want to mash it out like I do, 2H 236l 5lmh 236l 5S. Theres more you can do but you can easily pull this off just mashing.

Tragic worked on some amaterasu combos today. He got that exchange wiff loop working and was able to do the exchange wiff > slowdown. I worked on the combo some and can do it a little bit now too. These are some sick combos

Lot’s of thanks to gilley for the help as well. He was giving me some ideas! I can’t wait to see some real abuse of the slo-mo… doesn’t seem nearly as good as Joe’s, but still handy (jump full charge Hx4 isn’t really worth anything early in the combo). I think there is a lot more potential getting it early in your combo.

(sword) c.M-c.H-S, sj.S, df+H~d+S (exchange cancel whiff), QCB+PP… then go from there. Something badass should work there! Maybe tag in and have it hit… and continue with another char?! =D

omg these combos are disgusting… how do you exchange cancel? 0_o

Exchange Cancel combos.

Reflector

:l::m::h: xx :f::h::h::h: xx :d::d::m: :m::s: xx JC :m:(x2):s: :df::h: xx EC* xx :qcf::l:(charged**) Okami Shuffle***

Glaive

:l::m::d::h: xx :qcf::l: :l::m::h: xx :qcf::l: :m::s: xx JC :m:(x2):s: :df::h: xx EC* xx :qcf::l:(charged**) Okami Shuffle***

*Note: EC is :d::s:

**Note: :qcf::l: MUST be fully charged. Once charged, Ammy will do the move automatically. You don’t have to let go or press :l: again.

***Note: You can do Divine Instruments if you have enough meter and willing to do more damage. You can also XFC right after the charged :qcf::l: for more damage.:woot:

Wow great stuff Gilley…really.

So what are the combos I should be using with amaterasu? Lot of posts on combos, like this does tons of dmg [media=youtube]uzn2qHK_jWg[/media] but it might be range specific from where you start? What about if you start with qcf s with glaive? Corners? Midscreen?

I am confused as to what I need to learn.

I’m pretty sure you should be learning these. These combos do much more damage and aren’t range specific (I was working on them all yesterday). As long as you make sure you do an :u: jump instead of a :uf: for the loop than it’s fine. Inputting a :uf: jump makes you have to reverse your directions midscreen.

Back for more Ammy Combos.

This is an overhead combo for people who like duck blocking too much.
Pretty simple. Works better with corner but good either way.

simple loop:

H > f.H x 5 xx qcb L > H > f.H > whatever.

seems situational / doesnt work on everyone, i may have just been a little too close though.

i was wondering if you guys could help me out

im learning how to play ammy right now, and i can do his reflector combos but i have the biggest trouble with his glaive combination

specifically the part where you link qcf+l,m, s i just cant get that lightning strike attack to link with his standing(or crouching) M

instant over head and low variant combos

instant j.:l: (works on morrigan outside corner) :df::h:, :qcf::h:, :m:, :qcf::l:, :m:, :h:, :d::h:, :qcf::l:, :m:, :s:, j. okami shuffle
in order to get the combo to work outside the corner there seems to be this slight delay either between the :l: and :df::h: orbetween that and the j.:qcf::L:

you can try getting extra damage by doing a funky delayed j.:qcf::s: but it’s somewhat hard on the timing. if you CAN however, you can net some really nice damage in the corner since the j.:qcf::s: resets bounce allowing you to do another :df::h: shuffle. of course you have to be aware of when after the :qcf::s: you do the shuffle…sometimes you’re too close to the ground

if you do the okami shuffle high enough you can OTG :df::h: and force a ground tech anywhere on the screen, cancel into j.:qcf::l: and be right on top of them. won’t work for long I’m sure, but it could be something to abuse against people unawares
does 600k with the OTG

OR

:d::l:, :d::m:, :d::h:, :qcf::l:, :l:, :m:, :h:, :qcf::l:, :m:, :s:, j.:m:, j.:m:, :df::h:, :qcf::s:, shuffle

if you’re midscreen you can actually get a second shuffle by just jumping right after the :s: into shuffle, but you have to delay the :m: a little bit right before and time the shuffle just right, but it nets almost 700k so might be worth it although the single super version is still 580k so shrug

I’ve also been having problems hitting after the :qcf::l:. I think it might help if somebody could post a non screencaptured video pressing the buttons loudly so the actual timings are audible.

Well this is very usefull… im a noob in this game and havent played since the first one, so right now i suck a lot in this game but i really like Ammy and wanna learn to play with it any basic combo for the noobs like me? thanks everybody for the info and sorry for my bad english its not my first language.
P.s: i know its kinda off-topic but its a good idea to team up ammy with spider man and capitan america?

which combo, if you do :m::h::d::h: :qcf::l: the next :m: is tight but doable, otherwise if you’re doing :m: straight into :d::h: you need to do an :l: next for it to connect
