The DHC Trick - Damage & Hit-Stun Scaling Reset

There are no heavy execution combos in this game, even the “hard” combos are ridiculously easy. A couple days in training mode per combo is nothing.

You act as if you just press a button and the person dies.

Pretty much.

I feel the DHC glitch is basically the same thing as abusing a glitch to make Magneto’s EMD 1 hit ko. (lets make it cost a couple meters if it connects)

Didn’t really know about this glitch since I haven’t been visiting SRK that much. Went to our local arcade with a friend of mine and was winning a bunch, then a guy sits down to play. He picks some team that I beat 3 times in a row, then he switches over to spencer/dante/sentinel, I’m using magneto/sentinel/she-hulk.

We’re playing all fine and dandy and he kills magneto, so then sentinel comes in. Now, the game is still not patched at the arcade, so this is pre-patched sentinel with the 1.3mil health. Spencer gets me with a low attack then starts his combo, does the super and cancles to dante doing his transform, then from there, he combos the living shit out of me and by the end of the combo with dantes super, kills sentinel, and I’m like, wtf??? How is that even possible? A touch of death combo?

So I’m like whatever, play him a couple more times and the times he doesn’t get me with the DHC glitch, I beat him, but everytime he does it, he takes out one of my characters, sometimes even doing it twice in the same match, and I usually lose.

My friend plays the guy doing the dhc glitch, and when he gets hit by the same dhc glitch combo on Hulk, he finishes the match and says “I’m not playing against this guy, the combo hes using doesn’t seem fair.”

So after a couple more times of us playing, and the guy winning only when he uses the glitch, I go over to him and talk to him and I was complimenting him and asking him how he learned marvel. He told me that he checks SRK and eventhubs and watches the team spooky streams and stuff, and then continued to tell me the combo that he was doing was a glitch, and I was like, wtf? Why are you using a glitch? And hes like oh it does good damage. So I asked him not to do the glitch anymore and he said okay.

This is my encounter with the glitch. I feel, as well as some of my friends also feel, that it is unfair. If you land a random low, you basically can kill a character, including someone like sentinel pre-patch who has 1.3mil health. You know, if it damage scaled, then whatever let it slide, but since it resets the damage scaling then I think thats an issue.

It’s a glitch, and should not be allowed in tourneys. And I don’t think calling it a trick changes the fact that it is a glitch lol. When you’re doing a combo, and doing something that causes the damage scaling to reset during that combo, that is not an intentional part of the game and is a glitch.

why havent i seen you on stream then? if you arent dropping hard combos, and are getting max damage everytime you hit someone… barring mental retardation, you should atleast be able to get on a wnf stream.

simply put i dont believe you. if you can hit the hard viper combos and chun combos and the other higher execution characters combos consistently, i commend you. but i can assure you that alot if not most people are still dropping intermediate combos… even on stream.

conversely, dropping an x-23 to wesker TOD is almost as hard as dropping a wolverine BNB. ie damn near impossible.

if you think execution is easy just play viper/chun/modok/ironman etc and try to get off there better combos… LOL. easy my ass.

and none of those characters are (level 1) glitch capable either. just because something isnt as hard as a magneto ROM in mvc2 doesnt make it easy.

have you played against people that use dhc glitch alot?

when i use wolverine, the chances of me dropping his “standard” BNB combo outside of it being started against a character very high in the air is VERY low…im not bragging, ANYONE can do it cause its the easiest “complex” combo in the game. still i would compare SOME glitch combos to it.

Ya I think its a glitch that should be fixed. It will never be banned though because the standard response from gaming community is play to win via any means necessary. That or you get a, well if its so good then you should use it. Everyone knows it is super easy ToD combo that is slowly taking over the meta game, either you run it or use x-factor or any other mean necessary to take out the DHC glitch starter on opposing team.

Its a shame because I feel it dumbs down the game because it dumbs down combos and somewhat forces certain character combos, like if spencer or storm is on point it basically forces a DHC glitch partner else you are wasting their potential. The DHC glitch also makes health totals pointless, for instance if I run dante to ammy DHC glitch it doesn’t matter if my opponent is zero or Thor the extra heatlh is pointless so might as well use the faster better opening zero than thor.

Well then according to this person your options are pretty clear. Become an online warrior and complain about the DHC trick until you’ve complained your little heart out and then it’ll get fixed at the expense of the offline community.

cool.

Lol, ITT people complaining about a trick that 80% of the cast can do.

I can imagine Internet scrubs hate for roll canceling back in the day.

Imagine scrubs raging when people pull off a special move in SF1, or combos in SF2.

Combo using Trish’s Peekaboo assist to let Ryu DHC trick into Zero:

Shoryuken - Ryu/Zero/Trish DHC Trick

Does this mean there might be a way to get this to work with Mag’s Hyper Grav assist?

Man that is really gonna open up alot of options for some teams that didnt think they had a DHC reset trick

Hyper Grav can not be placed and then hit later. If you call Magneto in, the assist cooldown will not expire in time to allow you to DHC before Hyper Grav’s hit stun ends. Actually, now that I think about it, maybe if you use Ammy or V. Joe and their slow hypers? Time to go back to the lab.

EDIT: Even with both slows stacked, it still doesn’t last long enough.

DHC glitch isn’t available to 80% of the roster when only like 1 of 8 characters can legitimately start it, and most characters it is unreasonable to DHC into them or only works with certain very specific setups.

Btw complaining about a glitch doesn’t make someone a scrub. In fact I can hold my own against almost anyone (offline, my second point character is terrible online) without the DHc glitch. That being said if I mained a DHC team instead I would prolly do better because I wouldn’t need to use resets or snap in annoying assist etc because I would just kill the point char everytime. Second complaining the DHC glitch is bad doesn’t mean we won’t play with it in the game. If I could I would remove chain grabs from brawl because I think they are unintended and cheap, that doesn’t mean I won’t play brawl but I can still say its a cheap mechanic.

Besides people want this game to be more in-depth or whatever, then cut out the DHC glitch. Now people need to learn more resets, more complicated combos better meter management etc. DHC glitch snubs the metagame because it encourages people to focus for things revolving around DHC glitch like using Trish assist or AE’n into a DHC starter, rather than learning more metagame based mechanics. Perhaps people put togeather more point/assist combos since they don’t need to keep DHC glitch orders/combinations in mind.

I forget how do you block ppls post so you dont have to see them?

k thanks

yo dime:
What can you do with this Trish Peek-a-boo combo.
In the Teir thread their was a fellow stating that he was unable to get more than 10hits before the hitstun would run out and the opp would recover between the Peek-a-boo and the first hit if the Hyper.
So he said he could only average 300-350k pre DHC.

Thaught I should ask if you are able to set up something more substantail/

im not the person to ask, i dont use trish nor do i currently use any glitch capable teams.

So I got the glitch to work with amaterasu to she hulk. If u don’t have an otg assist u need to throw/reset your opponent very hgih in the air. This point is moot if u have an otg assist tho because u can just use it to combo. Anyway u do veil of mist and then whiff taking out the trash. Follow up with cr l cr m cr h s. Normal jump m h s land s si m m h s torpedo.

Pretty sure a similar setup will work with hulk
