I had a quick question to see if anyone can figure how they pull off this combo with Anubis Polnareff. Here is a video that shows the combo:
[media=youtube]YFRf3r1qWgE[/media]
at the 00:59 mark he does jump in A3, land, stand A1x2, fwd + A2. How are they getting fwd + A2 to combo from a stand A1?. I’ve been trying to figure it out for a while now. If anyone knows the trick I would greatly appreciate it.
Edit: I checked the wiki and it says crouch cancel in the combo. Can anyone explain how to do crouch cancels? Thanks.
Been playing for a little over a week now, I really enjoy the game. I’ve been using Mariah exclusively as she kind of reminds me of Sheryl from Rumble Fish. Knockdown into Electric Pendulum mixups seem to be blocked rather easily, or I get thrown while going into the overhead.
I mash S. A3 a lot, then cancel into her Stand Light Switch.
Haven’t seen anyone else really use her. Though sometimes my runaway gets annoying and my opponent will pick her as well just to beat me at my own game.
If anyone has any tips it’d be appreciated. I just wish chip damage would kill in this game. :shake:
my favorite thing about mariha, is cr A1 x 3 easy knockdown from cr A1? ok!?
and she is obviously all about wakeup games, so get creative when you get a knockdown.
I personally have a socket out at all times, thats my #1 priority when i play her, even after ive gotten to max lvl. #2 is get a knockdown, then start goin crazy =D
EDIT: o yeah! i really like Standing A3 as well! good poke, and a good anti air tool if spaced well. s.A3 dp A3 is a nice 2 hit anti air option, if you are spaced correctly =P
btw, fyi: Crouch cancels can also work in “reverse” and they also apply to many characters (not just anubis polnareff).
Mariah for example can do c.A1 A1 c.A2
or A1 A1 cc A2
or c.A1 A1 cc A2
You get the idea. Normally you can’t go from c.A1 to c.A2 or A1 to A2, but cc’s make it possible for her, and others. But it feels more like a natural chain going from a standing to crouching move or visa versa.
The R.Soul wiki page feels kind of barren. I’d update it but I feel like no one cares anyway.
Oh and don’t forget you can cancel your backdash into attacks, just like your forward dash. This includes your crouching dash attacks, so like Young Joseph can do backdash c.A3 and get his slide instead of hopkick, or just backdash A3 and get a backwards-moving hopkick. Helps with anti-air spacing and shit. Not many characters get full use out of it, but it’s incredibly useful in certain situations.
[Edit]: random notes: You can “cut” Mariah’s dp telephone wire if you hit the cord. Also there’s a difference between jump back into instant air j.D as apposed to shorthop backwards into j.D with her, the jump arc is significantly lower with shorthop. Your j.D can turn you around in the air, so you can like crossup and then j.D on the way down, or shortjump j.A2 then j.D on the way down and it will turn you toward the enemy on crossup/no-cross.
Considering hardly any of the wiki pages even existed for jojo’s before it hit GGPO, I figured adding at least the movelist and some BASIC stuff was an improvement.
Can’t wait for the tournies to take place, gonna be sick! We need more entrants dammzit! I wonder how peepz would react if i brought this in for some casual play at cali get togethers…hmmm…
