I wonder if the HSD will allow me to do like Low Rekka > Punch Rekka > Crumple Rekka > Power Up > M > H > S > air string > Power Up > Wesker’s OTG > S > air string > OTG Rekka > Palm Rekka > Super
So are we just Assuming the blue chi power up will not help him from being completely zoned? I mean we have seen it absorb fireballs from akuma and from firebrand at just level 1 blue correct?
Does Spirit of The Dragon OTG? It seems like it does, but I havent heard anything about it.
Heh, like everyone is wondering exactly that. Like you say it sure seems like it should
My gut tells me that there won’t be much HSD at all on Rekkas, but its pure speculation on my part (altho aren’t a number of other specials that are meant for comboing like that? I know it helps that they’re all single hits).
The idea of using Samurai Edge so you can get another power up is pretty cool imo
even one blue charge looks like it reduces damage a lot (he also gets hit once as an assist, and its a pretty big difference imo). I keep watching for the fireball absorb and I just don't see it, lol :P
That seems like a pretty nice meterless ending actually.
Nice catch!
Blue Chi to tag out and keep yourself alive if you get hit as an assist!
I’m also thinking of the combo I mentioned before but using green chi (at least on the first part) to build enough meter to end it with a level 3.
As an aside, lacking sound effects, I think the Fei Long comparison is pretty weak. If yer gonna compare IF, he’s more like Karin meets the Twins than anything else.
edit@joe: There’s something about the way Danny works just makes you wanna get a whole list of possible combos to try out lol. He’s just… inspiring somehow!
If you do the shoulder charge instead of Dragon Kick, with the right assist, like Spencer, you could PROBABLY ground them again for another launcher.
I’ve never been so interested in playing as a character.
El Maiz, you should totally change your avatar title to “Registered as a deadly weapon”. In one of the few things I actually remember about Civil War, Danny got out of Registering because he already was, like the Dim Mak guy.
Also, yeah… haven’t been this excited for like ANY character (even Dr. Strange), and I don’t really know why. Its just so awesome
I’m kind of curious too about the advantages shoulder has over the kick, as of now it looks like the kick might fly over ducking (and shorties), but I’d think there was something else.
We don’t really know how much meter gain, how much damage, how much damage reduction.
Since they stack, I’d say no more than 30% for each.
The shoulder seems to have better recovery, making combos easier.
Too bad I won’t ever unlock his true potential, after all, he forgot more about fighting then I’ll ever know.
I think we’re the only three regulars on this thread.
So who gets the combo thread in November?
I may do the Team Building thread.
I’m curious to know if defense refers to decreasing damage, increasing the effects of damage scaling, improving block against attacks that do chip damage, or increasing life.
That said, after the videos so far, I can’t imagine using anything but the damage ones myself.
I want the Combo Thread because it really bugs me when I’m trying out a new character and then the first post of the combo thread for this character is all about Day One ABC S BBC S combos and the last page is all about a fucking hard ass combo that I won’t ever do before some good time practicing, so I want to update it as much as I can.
Meter building could be good to get the lvl 3 in the end of the combo, it may be more rewarding damage-wise than using Damge boost and only being able to finish with a lvl 1.
Defense will make you take less damage, so it should be nice to have it if you use a risky assist like Dragon Fang that leave Iron Fist uncovered by the point character, so if the opponent hits him he will take less damage.
If you’re using the others I think the damage boost is the way to go for the assists, can’t see meter building being relevant to his assists.
I know enough about myself to not claim any threads, too flakey
I wasn’t impressed with IF at all, but I just saw the Gamespot Seth Killian demo and I have to admit that he looks really cool once explained a bit more. I might try him out a few times once the game is released.
Owwwww,im so easily forgotten.
I’m hype for Trish/Fist/Assist. His axe kick assist will replace Wesker’s for me for both extending combos and setting up Round Harvest unblockables, which makes me feel good inside.
