The Power of Gaia! The Storm Combo Thread!

[Correa]

So I was messing with Lightning Sphere/Fly combos trying to come up with something new and I just noticed something really weird. I wish I could get a video of it, but I don’t have a capture card. For some reason, if I do something like:

:s: sj :h:, Fly :l: :h:, :l: Lightning Sphere, :l: air dash up

She doesn’t seem to actually dash up. She still goes into the dash animation, but it looks like she barely moves at all. I did it several times to make sure it wasn’t just the camera angle playing tricks on me, and it looks like she actually doesn’t move upwards during the dash. It also doesn’t seem to happen when I just skip the fly part. Is there some kind of property in the game that kills your momentum when Fly is about to wear off?

[Lord_Zaldivar]

I’m about to upload the TAC lightning spheres loop fly loop combo in a minute. I’m uploading it as a proof of concept since I’m not consistent with it just yet but I was able to get two lightning spheres then go into her fly loop then land and get a double typhoon into hailstorm. It’s nothing special but it’s an option if you need to switch to Storm and land an up or down TAC

Here’s the vid

Cool stuff. Just to clarify, this only works in the corner, correct?

I haven’t tested it midscreen so I can’t properly answer you

[The_Matrix367]

In this combo, are you air dash canceling her j. S? I’m talking about right after the jump canceled Cr. H. My eyes could be deceiving me of course, but just curious. =O

I’m REALLY liking these combos. I’m picking up storm since I found alot of synergy between her and Zero, so I’ll try to add my own stuff to the batch as well. =)

Yea i am doing c.H JC.H,S ADF, H.

Yeah, I can’t figure out what’s causing this.

:h:, Lightning Sphere, :l: ADU works, but
:h:, Fly :l: :h:, Lightning Sphere, :l: ADU doesn’t.

Doesn’t even work during an exchange. Which sucks, since I was so close to being able to extend the TAC combo that xero posted. It just feels like I should be able to squeeze a few more hits out of that, but I’m having trouble figuring out how right now.

Edit:
So after an exchange it’s also possible to do:

:l: :h:, Fly :l: :h: [ADF, :h:]x3~4, :l: Lightning Sphere, , :l: Lightning Sphere, , :u:+:s: (exchange)

Which means you could combine it with xero’s version and get:

Lightning Sphere, :h:, Lightning Sphere, :h:, ADUF :l: :h:, Fly, :l: :h:, [ADF, :h:]x3~4, :l: Lightning Sphere, , :u:+:s: (exchange)

Trying to figure out a way to stick more Lightning Spheres in there, but the 3-air action limitation is making it hard to extend. It’s not a whole lot more than what was already posted, but there you go.

[xero15]

Sorry I have been away from Storm, combo wise anyways, and been practicing how to use her more effectively on rushdown and keepaway. I’m having the hardest of time trying to TK her lightning spheres yet I can do :l: lightning spheres with little problem. I’ll go back in the lab with her tonight and work on some x factor stuff but it’s probably all old news by now.

[xero15]

I did come across one combo that hits for over 700K with one bar but unless you use the lightning attack loop already it may be difficult.

j:s: c:m: c:h: jc :f: Lightning Attack x2 :d: Lightning Attack c:h: :s: sj:h: xx Lightning Sphere sj:h: adf :s: land /:h: Double Typhoon xx Hailstorm

I believe the damage was like 704K or something like that but if you combo into ER you get 853,800 total damage.

Sooooooo hard to link the typhoon!

[xero15]

That’s probably the hardest part about the combo. Like I said it’s still 693 or so without the typhoon which is still better than the normal bnb I suppose. Honestly I would only go for the typhoon part of it if I knew that the Elemental Rage would kill them otherwise I’d save meter and just go to Hailstorm

[xero15]

I swear Storm is extra dumb in this game. The scaling on her combos don’t make sense at all. Anyways for half the effort, 691K

j:s: c:m: c:h: jc :f: Lightning Attack x2 :d: Lightning Attack c:h: jc :h: addf :s: sj:h: adf :s: land Hailstorm

Thing about it though looks like you can land a double typhoon as well which I havent tried yet but I have a feeling it will do less damage.

Hmm can probably still get the double typhoon off this one but slightly changing the combo above to this:

j:s: c:m: c:h: jc :f: Lightning Attack x2 :d: Lightning Attack c:h: jc :h: addf :s: sj:h: xx :l: Lightning Sphere :h: adf :s: land Hailstorm

Gets you 703K and it seemed like you could land and do the double typhoon like in other combos so I’d assume it would add about 20K to the combo? Before the super damage read at 473K

If you get the double typhoon it bumps the second combo up to 710 with the chance to ER. I didn’t worry about linking the two since I’m trying to maximize damage with the least amount of meter possible

Good stuff. Gotta practice that one. After the lightening attack loop I was doing s.m c.h JC. H, S ADD H S.M S J.H J.S HAIL.

How much were you getting off that?

Zro was here…

[Kamui_Moon]

i’ve been focusing on meter gain rather than damage, but this still breaks 700k.

float S, s.M, c.H, j.S, df lightning, f lightning, df/db lightning, s.M, c.H, j.H, j.S, adf j.H, s.M, c.H, j.H, add, s.M, S, j.H, j.S, hail

builds 1.1 bar for 705k. combining it with the lightning sphere combo gets you 712k iirc, but carries a net meter loss. leaving out the j.S before lightning attack makes it do 696k and makes it substantially easier, but fuck easy combos.

do u have a vid of this combo?

[xero15]

I can only land that combo in the corner. Is it possible midscreen? I altered a few things about it afterwards to still get 700K but it doesn’t build a full bar then.

[Rokmode]

Is it possible to do 3 lightning spheres in one tac?

I posted how to do that on this page, just scroll up

Is it possible to end the 3 ls tac with a jump s though instead of another tac?
