The Power of Gaia! The Storm Combo Thread!

Could someone please post storms most practical solo non xfactor 1 meter midscreen bnb…I would really appreciate it

Her easiest practical midscreen combo is the one everyones been doing its just that it doesn’t build enough meter. Honestly I think she’s more of a setup and reset character with decent zoning tools than a combo queen.

I blame Airborne… :lol:o_O shrug

Fair enough, thank you for the response

What reset combos are you doing with her? I try the normal c.H jump combos into a j.l then add but all it really gives me is an air throw and it only works in the corner because of air tech. I’ll call cold star to keep them locked down but if they’re mashing they’re still just going to hit the dog.

I saw someone use foul wind to reset at Power Up so I’ve been messing around with it on another level. I’ve also been trying a midscreen reset using j:l: then addf. The way it works is after the addf I just command dash, if they tech backwards I cross under them sane with if they tech forward. With the right assist this particular setup turns into a hi/lo left/right mixup while also putting her at the right position to hit for a crossup j:l:

As of right now I’ve landed it about two or three times. I’m trying to get more into resets

I blame Airborne… :lol:o_O shrug

that was probably Neon Geon. Look up some arcade legacy videos if you want to see his beatly storm

Yeah I think that was him we had some matches. I was talking with him bout using missiles with it to create a wall that would stop forward tech while leaving the opponent in position for the pick up if hit plus some other stuff.

I blame Airborne… :lol:o_O shrug

Can anybody point me to Storm’s best known TAC combo(s) for damage, style, or practicality? I’ve been the one which goes from two lightning spheres into updash into flight, but I’m hoping there’s more.

This idea popped into my head earlier today but I’m not sure if it’ll work. I can’t test it out because I’m about to deploy so I don’t have my setup but for now it’s based around Storm, Dorm, Doom.

c:l: c:m: c:h: jc :f:LA :f:LA :d:LA s:m: plus Dark Hole c:h: :s: xx fly f:h: [dash :h:] x2 dash :h: plus Missiles unfly :h: :s: sj :s: (missiles should hit right after to allow another :s:) land double typhoon xx hailstorm, elemental rage

Like I said this is theory at the moment but things I’m not sure will work is the unfly :h: into launch for starters and then the double :s:'s after the launch as I’m not sure how and where missiles would hit after the first :s:. Honestly I’ve been playing Zero lately so the double fly screens kinda wanted me to try it on Storm. In any case if it’s possible to perform this combo it may be possible to replicate this idea with other assists for more damage. As far as missiles is concerned if it doesn’t allow a double :s: it should provide stun enough for a final :h: :s: into hailstorm like normal with timing adjustments to the assist of course.

How do you get jump H to connect after the sphere? I get it to connect randomly and I can’t figure out what I’m doing differently.

Could someone give me the storm combo that justin uses?
Also could someone give me the most damaging one and the most practical one?
There are soo many great ones on the front page I cant pick.

If you want ease go for the bnb that everyone uses.

c:l: c:m: c:h: jc j:m: j:m: j:h: s:m: c:H: jc j:h: adf j:h: s:m: c:h: :s: sj:m: sj:h: sj:s: land Hailstorm

If you want damage then it depends a lot on you hitting her stronger combos and using your assist mid combo

Finally found a XF1 kill combo for my team with storm on point. you need to start with 1 bar and it builds a 2nd for the DHC into taskmaster. Solo with hailstorm finisher it does 897k

c:l:, c:m:, c:h:, XFC, c:h:, j.:h:, j:s:, adf, j:s:, s:m:, c:h:, j:h:, j:s:, adf, j:h:, s:m:, s:h:,:s:, j:m:, j:h:, j:s: Hailstorm DHC Legion arrow

Might post a video tomorrow.

What are her stronger combos that are still tourney viable? I’m using her bnb but I like big damage.

More Damaging combos I use:

c:l: c:m: c:h: jc j:m: j:m: j:s: s:h: c :h: jc j:h: j:s: adf j:h: s:m: s:h: :s: sj:m: sj:h: sj:s: land Hailstorm

Same as BnB but adds in more :h:s and :s:s. storm can kind of do whatever she wants so you can sub in and out certain hits depending on the character you’re hitting. That combo for example you can just do j:h: adf j:h: if the :h::s: adf:h: wont work or you can sub out the S:h:c:h: part if it’s a character you need to use the regular BnB on like the raccoon.

c:l: c:m: c:h: jc j :h: adf j:m: j:h: j:h: adf j:m: j:h: s:m: c :h: jc j:h: adf j:h: s:m: s:h: :s: sj:m: sj:h: sj:s: land Hailstorm Is the one that I would consider BnB material

The LA combos are pretty good but I consider them just too inconsistent unless you have assists making them connect, there are a ton of examples of them in the thread if you look around at the videos. I feel the same about the lighting sphere combos. They’re fancy but they’re not reliable. Only use for styling IMO.

Her fly combo (launch j:h: adf :h: xx fly :l::h: [adf :h:]x5) is good for random situations when you catch a launch and cant ground combo but it does some of her least damage combo wise and the timing is very specific depending on how you hit the launch and requires some free styling.

Storm is not a big damage character, not by a LONG shot. In fact she sucks. Doom or Magneto are much better options unless you just outright love that beyonzo.

If you want damage then you’re going to want to go for lightning attack and lightning sphere combos. They aren’t that I consistent just require a different timing to get use to but definitely more worthwhile in damage and with assist let you also throw in fly loops for more meter and damage.

How is 666k damage for 1 bar.
Im just dont :m::h: lightning lightning lightning down cr:h::s: air :m::h::s:.
Pretty consistent lol. What can I add on that isn’t too inconsistent for example no lighting sphere.

Wait up. Updated my combo didn’t write down the damage but I know its above average.
I’m not sure if it is possible midscreen but is in corner.
So :s: cr:m::h: jc :atk::s::atk::s::d::atk::s: cr:h::s: sent drone assist sj :m::h::s: land :s: sj :h::s: land :qcb::atk::atk:
I think its above 750k. Sorry for the details Ill update later.

Edit: it’s 731k and builds .9 bars. Damn that kinda stinks. Will try to put in fly loops. Get that 750k and 1 bar.

i would love to see a video of this…and im having a hard time with the jump cancels, for lightning attacks…any tips

In what aspect are you having trouble with lightning attacks? Pulling them off after a cr. H or something? If that’s the case all I can say is while doing the cr. H hold up and then do the lightning attack in the air. I’m not good at describing these things so maybe someone else can.

Anyways, I was just stopping in to see if anyone had any OTG combos for Storm? I just picked up a new point character who happens to have an OTG assist (X-23) so I was trying to find some OTG combos with Storm but everything I could think of didn’t work because the hitstun would cause the other character to roll out. I’m not very good at making combos though so I figured I’d ask here.
