I love this guy Tech. Feeling like Michael McDonald: " I keep forgetting"
i hope my sport team bryan, heavy, lucky
2k2 um combo so cheatsā¦every movement looks simple nothing special, but i like those bosses bcoz all bosses has entered.
Noob question and probably not in the right place, but can anybody help me out with this?

Maxmode activation tips: Cancelling a normal such as a strong attack (close C) into maxmode and then continuing the combo should not be a problem but there are some issues with cancelling a weak attack such as crouch B, into maxmode and then immediately doing another normal.
An example would be Choiās crouch Bx2, BC, crouch C, SDM combo. If the combo is input as d+BB, BC, d+C, SDM, the result will be a crouch/standing B coming out after the BC activation. Instead, this combo should be input as d+BB, C~B, SDM. C~B means to roll your fingers from C to B. For whatever reason, this will activate maxmode and do a crouch C one frame after that, making the combo work.
Some other examples where this is applicable would be:
* Athena's crouch B, crouch A, BC, crouch C, HSDM
* Kim's crouch B, crouch A, BC, close C, HSDM
* Vice's crouch Bx2, crouch A, BC, far C, hcf+B
Another technique, called maxmode bypass, refers to executing special moves/supers immediately after the maxmode activation. Suppose you wanted to combo Kensouās f+A overhead into his qcf hcb+B. You can input this combo as f+A, qcf hcb+BC. What happens is that the max activation occurs followed immediately by the super.
Trying to do Athenaās combo but I canāt get crouch C after BC. Iām doing the input: d+BB, C~B, SDM.
Also, tell me if Iām wrong, but am I basically plinking C into B?
EDIT: Iām playing the Eolith version if that helps.
what happens for you? do you get the cancel?
I figured it out. I wasnāt cancelling after A.
I still āplinkā C into B though, right?
yeah, and it should come right out
wtf is plinking? Never heard of the term in Kof.
Anyways its similar to Athenaās dp+C, into SDM. If you can do that then you should be able to do the combo in question.
For dp into SDM it looks like
hcb,f+C (1 or 2 hits), C~B.
The combo obviously isnt the same but the way you go about it is, so doing cB, cA, C~B (while cA is still in motion and active by the time you press ā~Bā the C will come out in maxmode.)
Plinking is from SFIV. It was the first FG I took seriouslyā¦
I donāt really understand what youāre saying about the DP+C into SDM combo. I see that you elaborated but I still donāt get it.
Plinking is a term some asshole SF4 players came up with to define buffering a button input while doing a link.
As if that had never existed before SF4.
actually, didnt caliagent coin that?
anyways yeah, you should be either sliding your finger or pianoing it extremely quickly from C to B when the crouch A hits. if you do it right, you should get crouch C right out of the maxmode cancel.
buffering buttions and plinking does not work in KOF neither negative edging, none of it does not exist. pressing B+C while in a combo is very strict on your next options should be. For example: Whipsā in close standing D, f+Ax4 XX B+Cā¦ at most times your standing B will come out. The point is you have to briefly press B+C, ssj. D(2hits), combo.
peace out CUDDY:cool:

heās talking about max bypassing into normals, which is done in a pretty similar way to plinking motion-wise.
Thanks cuzzo. Can you elaborate on what you just said like an example? I kinda got off track on the subject.
peace out cUDDY:cool:
Just wondering, is this technique gonna be needed in XIII at all?
pianoing the inputs in that way makes it so you can always get a specific normal to come out on the first frame after canceling into max.
the input buffering in that game is different. it doesnāt nullify inputs when you BC. iāll hit up poonage and ask for sure if there arenāt any tricks like that.
Oh I see nowā¦ I never thought of it that way, good shit homie.
As you know in KoF certain moves can be cancelled into and the game has some stupid cancels. Examples are Nameless dp into DM, kula dp into SDM etc to name a few. Athena is the same thing, so with that there are ways to āshortcutā the specials into DMs. For nameless = db, hcb,f+C~df+C will give you dp+C, DM
Kula = hcb,f+C~hcb+AC will give you dp+C, SDM
Athena = hcb,f+C~hcb+AC will give you dp+C, SDM
Anyways back to the Athena example, you basically do dp+C ~hcb+AC into quick succession to link SDM before she does more hits on her dp. This is pretty much the same with her cB, cA, MM, cC, SDM combo as explained. If you can do the athena dp into SDM easily, you should be able to do the next combo.
Come to think of it, its the same principle with Choi cB, cB, MM, cC SDM combo aswellā¦
Have to remember that 2k2/2k2um follow as system where if you press BC during a combo, certain extensions of combos will be harder to do. BCing off a Heavy attack is always going to be easier then lights (since active frames are longer on heavys then lights) and usually getting a sB when trying to BC out of an attack is the result of wrong timing (press buttons too long) or pressing BC on wrong active frame.
Whips combo is one that I havent figured it out properly since I seldom use her and I dont use that MM combo, but the combo prob follow the principle above.
As far as I know it still exist in XIII but with the ability to auto walk you wont have the problem of missing combos. In matches I havent seen a light attack come out after BC activate like I do in 2k2, so I think the game is more lenient in BCing (Hyerdriving in XIII). Prob with XIII is the combo itself since you can link much more then 2k2 soooo its a matter of how good you can repeat things over and over. Someone like Ash, vice etc would be a nightmare to remember.
