The Asuka Combo thread

I don’t know if it is exactly the same combo, but I also did a one-meter 523-damage combo:

j.:hp:, s.:hk: xx :hcb::2k:, c.:mp: xx :hcb::hk:, c.:mp: xx :hcb::hk:, c.:hk:

Seeing as it is a jump-in and a standing roundhouse to get that damage, it’s not really practical, the :mp: > :lp: chain is certainly easier, but does 484 damage instead due to scaling so early.

Well it’s still good for punishing. Someone raw tags or whiffs something huge you jump in and punish with that.

Haven’t tried that combo yet but 523 damage off 1 bar is pretty damn good.

I’ve been using the ex oni combo, and I think it’s worth the meter, my team doesn’t use a lot of meter anyway (Poison/Asuka) so I have plenty to burn for that extra damage.

With that above statement, if you have meter to burn and you want to punish them and keep Asuka out, go for the st.hk xx ex oni > cr.mp xx oni > st.mk xx falling rain > cr.hk/jump whiff setup

OR

st.hk xx oni > cr.mp xx oni > cr.mp xx oni > cr.hk (Bit trickier but nets you 20-30 extra damage)

You can add a j.hp before that combo on raw tags or anything punishable with j.hp.

Been testing out Asuka a bit…and discovered that you can combo EX Falling Rain after her :f: :hk:overhead, and then combo into sweep for a decent 272 damage. Obviously, a tag cancel combo may yield better damage for the same amount of meter and be easier to do, but it’s at least something to have if you can’t afford to tag in your partner.

This has probably been already known for a while, so I apologize in advance. Just trying to do my part to keep the character forums alive. :slight_smile:

Ah yeah it’s already been known but thanks for contributing anyway!

You can also connect her cross art off it as well but it’s pretty tight.

Hi guys,I’m a new here an all of that,but I think I’ve discovered one of the least usefull(but stylish) asuka combo,I was playing with her new Cr.HP on counter hit,now that is special cancelable,and I’ve discovered a little ‘‘loop’’:
Counter Cr.Hp CADC b.MP MK EX CADC Counter Cr.Hp CADC b.MP MK EX CADC… The link into Cr.HP is a little hard,and the damage is not worthy (I belive it will do something like 400-450 damage after using all your bars)

PD:sorry for my english,but I’m spanish :stuck_out_tongue:

That’s cool, thanks for sharing. I should really start looking out for stuff like this, because I like being able to combo into CH crumple moves like that.

You can also do: (c.HP xx CADC, js.HP, b.MP xx MK xx EX CADC) x3 for an even longer loop.

Guess I’ve been away from the game for way too long
EX CADC meaning= ? Are you just Dash cancelling the EX CA? if so why? to get the CH properties again?

Yes, allowing c.HP to crumple again, allowing you to loop the combo once more.

That loop could have some use in Pandora combos. Good find!

Tu inglés es mejor de mi español.

I realized that the loop isn’t as usless as thought,meaby after doing it 2 or 3 times the damage scaling makes it worthless,but if you do it just 1 time,could be a great hit confirm (the EX CADC into cr.HP is still very dificult,but once you got the timing is easier),you can do everything grom it:
Pandora combo:
counter cr. :hp: CADC (optional j. :hp: ) b. :mp: :mk: EX CADC cr. :hp: CADC pandora

Launcher combo:
counter cr. :hp: CADC (optional j. :hp: ) b. :mp: :mk: EX CADC cr. :hp: CADC :hk: xx launcher

falling rain/oki combo
counter cr. :hp: CADC (optional j. :hp: ) b. :mp: :mk: EX CADC cr. :hp: CADC :hk: xx cancan (or wheneaver it’s called,shoryuken kicks) j. :hk: :hk: (or :mk:) falling rain/oki cr. :hk:

tag combo:
counter cr. :hp: CADC (optional j. :hp: ) b. :mp: :mk: EX CADC cr. :hp: CADC :hk: xx cancan j. :hk: (you can tag here if you want) :hk: (or :mk: ) cancan tag (this last tag could be a little dificult.

I hope it helped

PD:trying to learn how to put the hk hp mk… simbols,I think I did it right :slight_smile:
PD2: Mousefire,the spanish is very hard to learn for a person who mother tongue is english (and meaby it’s the same for spanish people that try speaking in english)

I think it would be better to do:

counter cr. :hp: CADC (optional j.:hp: ) b. :mp: :mk: EX CADC cr. :hp: CADC j.:hp:, raw launcher

Since launcher does 50 less damage if chained into. That way you will also get the hit freeze, so you can tag cancel it to get A LOT of time for your partner to set up a combo. I dunno though, does j.HP connect on everyone?

I think so,but after doing it the oponent is crouching,so you can’t do cr. :hp: CADC j. :hp: :hk: because it will wiff,but instead of using :hk: you can use a normal cr. :hp:

I meant just doing launcher directly after the j.HP though, no normal inbetween.

I know,just giving some more info,I tried doing it directly from the j. :hp: and works greatly.I also tried something with the loop and discovered a few things:
-The j. :hp: into b. :mp: works with averyone (just tested it against blanka,kuro,toro,hugo and xiaoyu,i belive it should work fine)
-Sadly,it dosen’t work against crouching oponents (everything can happen,hitting the oponent normaly,hitting them while tey’re in airobne state,wiffing the attack…very random/character especific)
-I belive that the link between j. :hp: into b. :mp: works better when the oponent is small (tested against hugo and was almost impossible,just did it like 1/10 times,then I tested against blanka and did it 7/10 or so,meaby was just luck)
I’ll test more thing in the future,l like how this thing goes,could be great for combo vids.

I’ll include a variation of this in my upcoming CV actually. Found some other fun crumple stuff as well.

And I’m sure it’s harder on larger characters. j.HP can be +20 at most, and b.MP has a 19-frame start-up, so you need to hit it really deep. If they’re tall, you run a higher risk of hitting them too soon.

Ok,I think this is the longest combo that asuka can preform alone:
(Counter cr. :hp: CADC j. :hp: b. :mp: mk: EX CADC)x3 Counter cr. :hp: CADC l. :hp: b. :mp: :mk: CADC :lp: :mp: :lp: :mp: :lk: :mk: cr. :mp: double lift kicks j. :hk: :hk: falling rain cr. :hk:
I think it’s a 31 hit combo or so.

Now that the patch has been out for a week, what would you say is the most practical meterless BnB’s?

Same as always, opener of your choice into canan > j.hk > st.mk xx falling rain (replace mk with st.hk or cr.hp depending on screen position). She’s not going to change in this regard unless someone finds some broken reason to cancel to normal exorcisor instead.
