The last ROM thread...info on how to perform the ROM infinite inside

well my i press the lk button the same time i air dash, thats not my problem i have that part down. but like i said when i do that against the computer it seems to mash out after i do about one rep and block so i cant continue with it. its really hard to explain but like i said if i had a site i could post my video i would so u could see my mistakes exactly.

you’re probably not attacking directly after the ad… rhythm’s like this…

lklk…addflk…lk

the lk after the air dash has to be almost instant… you shouldnt even see mag go into an air dash animation.

after the second lk on the way UP you should pause and watch where mag is, usually the opponents head should be between his legs…yea…then you air dash but what it should look like otw down is mags second lk animation should immediately change do the first lk animation, then pause again.

plus do you have a stick? or a pad? if its pad scrub it up and set a button to function as lp and hp so you can just press that then lk right after, until you get down the timing or a stick. if you use a stick do the slide method cuz using thumb is just weird, at least to me.

hmm m1x4h you know which the pros use? like wong soo etc, was curious if they use slide or thumb hehe

im using a pad but i already have it set up like you and i dont have any problem switching between pad and stick so i just really need someone to tell me my mistakes really. ill try using the advice given i thought i was pressing them but i guess i was a little slow on it.

I’m 100% sure you cannot mash out infinites, so the most obvious answer to your question is, when you do the infinite that you say you can do in practice mode, pay more attention to the combo meter, and tell us does it reset after one or two hits, or does it keep counting, going up to 40+ hits? if it resets, listen to m1x4h and them, your timing is wrong. if it goes up to 40+, then you’re probably just nervous or something during a match, where they can retaliate.

okay i get ya. yea during practice i was able to connect each rep for 20+ hits, not everytime but more times than not. i guess i get nervous during matches because im busy trying to pull off the infinite to see if i can do it rather than actually play to win the match. well ill practice on it some more.

after a while, the infinite will come secon nature. and dont’ worry about getting the infinite off in a match. some times, the infinite never gets pulled off, but they win the match. it’s a tool that you can use, but not everything. focus on doing damage quickly

well im not trying to use the infinite every match. like i said i only try to pull it off so i can see if i can do it. i mostly use his HGMT combo the most since its easy to do and can deal out heavy damage.

That sounds difficult, switching from df to d in the short period between ad df and lk.

has never done it before

It’s actually not as confusing as you think - let me hopefully make it a bit easier to understand.

Magneto has two versions of his jumping/superjumping lk. There is the regular one, and then there is the d.lk. You hold d [down] and press lk in the air, and you’ll see the difference.

With this in mind, you simply sj. lk, lk ad.df lk lk. The third lk in the entire repetition is the d.lk - you don’t need to move the joystick from the original df direction, since df counts as down and will thus alter what lk comes out.

Hope that helped.

Ahhhh

I thought you had to manually move the joystick from df to d right after ad df.

suppose i am about to screw this inf up could i hit Hp and when they hit the ground do a lk then hk slide and hyper grav?

no you’ve already done more than 2 hits in the air so the next hp or hk would make flying screen

okay in response to his question what if im still low to the ground? could i finish with the hp or hk rush in and do the slide inf? just wondering if the fly screen would still happen if youre low to the ground.

fly screen would still happen, you might get off c.lk, c.hk then its over

okay thanx

I got iT!!! just tryin’ to work on gettin’ in more hits on Sent and other Big characters.

you can ROM until dizzy with lk, lk, addf, lk, lk

If the opponent is getting too high, that means that your pause between the two lks on your way down is too slight
Do a longer pause and he won’t go higher… your mk should be done right before you touch the ground

why is it that, when i do the ROM sometimes I end up switching sides with opp and hitting his back instead? can someone help me?

Is the combo counter reseting? Your probably reseting on accident? When you come down after doing sj.lk, lk, try to not air dash down foward, just air dash straight down and when you come up air dash diagonal towards them like this = /

so you will go sj.lk lk like this = / and air dash down like this = |. See if that helps.
