Ultimate Dante Combo Thread. Jackpot! Yeah baby!

Since i can’t find anything regarding this what can Dante do off a TAC?

Instead of going right into shot loops just do st.S into j.H Killerbee then shot loops. I believe it’s more damage since it’s more scaling friendly and it may be easier to get the loops off the ground bounce. When doing loops off million carats though I do a late st.S and allow a delay before commencing the shots so they’re at a good height. They usually just get pushed out by doing the loops naturally (when doing max amount of shots) so it makes the stinger easier to connect.

You can also walk back or forward between reps to adjust the spacing.

j.h xx Air Play -> j.m dj.h xx Sky Dance

If DT’d
j.h xx Air Play -> j.m dj.h xx Vortex -> j.s

DT’d in corner
j.h xx Thunderbolt -> j.m dj.h xx Air Raid ( aka Flight) j.lm (j.h xx Thunderbolt) x n -> Vortex -> j.s
N being number of (j.h xx Tbolt) reps that your remaining DT time permits. Most you’ll get in optimum conditions is 4

Or just do his TAC infinite

Could any one tell me some optimal combos using Zero’s Ryuenjin assist and Vergil’s Rapid Slash assist. Thanks in advance.

People keep asking the same 5 questions meaning the OP isn’t updated enough. I’ll get on that tomorrow. If I see one more Dante/Vergil question or Dante/Sentinel question I’m gonna lose it.

Or they aren’t reading any part of the thread.

j.H>cr.M>s.H>Stinger>BC Volcano >j.H>Air Plar>j.H>s.H>s.S>sj.H>killer bee>Back dash into s.S~H> .H>cr.M>s.H>Stinger>BC Volcano >j.H>Air Plar>j.H>s.H>s.S>sj.H>killer bee Rainstorm+Call Vergil Assist(try to delay the assist call so you connect all if not almost all the Rainstorm shots)>Hammer>Volcano~Beehive>Million Dollars

Does around 800k(maybe that is the damage for the hammer combo version but not sure) , starting off a hammer obviosuly does a bit more damage(Hammer>BC Volcano >j.H>Air Plar>blablabalbla)

There are a lot of ways to use the vergil Rapid Slash assist into combos, you can also use it to do Million catartas early in a combo, reset your grouns bounce with sky dance.

with ryuenjin assist you can .H>cr.M>s.H>Stinger>BC Volcano >j.H>Air Plar>j.H>s.H>s.S>sj.H>killer bee>s.H+ryuenjin>s.S>j.H>j.S>Cold Shower>}Stinger>Bold Move>Hammer>Volcano blabalbal

If you aren’t near the corner you would obviously need to bold cancel the stinger into Teleport and if you have trouble landing killer bee from midscreen after the combo air series, you can do a forward dash before connecting the s.S, and yeah i am lazy and there are a lot of ways to use the assists, i just posted a couple of ones i use.

EDIT: The TAC infinite makes the gun shot loops like a -4234242 day combo, maybe i am just doing it wrong or is there a trick, i can’t seem to do it consistently, anyone has the notations or if it work after all the TAC options(up,doen, sides)?

Yea most likely folks are just typing their question right in,I mean there is 12 pages of info so I could see people not wanting to read thru it all for one answer shrug
An update to the front page would be nice though,thanks a bunch…this thread’s been hands down the most helpful for my Dante game

Starting around the 6:40 Mark I do many combos using Zero and Vergil assist together. [media=youtube]YbZICcoQEh8[/media] (yeah sorry long video haha~)

Can dante break 700k midscreen with no assist off of a crouching light 1 level?

Do you guys think it would be helpful to have video(s) of, I guess like the common bnb’s, or extensions with some of the more popular assists?
I should have quite a bit of free time for the next couple of weeks so I figured I’d give myself something to do, and it might as well be something (somewhat) productive.

Most likely it would be whatever’s in the OP and any other important stuff I can think of. No fancy/impractical shit though, since that’s probably not what people tend to look for in a combo thread.

I was going to do a video of all the common BnBs but I didn’t know if I should make multiple vids or what. How about you make the common assist extensions videos and I’ll make the common combos like the ones in the OP?

YES to chirp and Momo’s latest posts…that’d be great,the common assist extensions in particular

Thanks I appreciate it.

All right, sounds like a plan. I’m sure I’ll end up getting carried away and finding retarded combos with assists nobody uses, but I’ll get the more common ones out of the way first.

About one video vs multiple videos- the way you have the OP set up right now, multiple videos would probably be better, so people can just see the combo they’re trying to do along with the notation, and they won’t have to jump around different timestamps. I remember having trouble getting an embedded video to begin playing at a certain time, though I don’t know if that was SRK’s fault or if it was just me being dumb.
Then again, a single longer video would prevent the post getting too cluttered. Eh, idk, either way works fine lol

I’ll do single vids then. To the television I go~

Something *strange *I’ve had occur numerous times: when executing Dante’s typical Stinger, BC, Volcano BnB from a landed Bolts Assists - I’ve had Dante “teleport” to Strange’s opposite side of the opponent character and execute the Volcano after Stinger. Anyone had this happen or have any ideas as to why? Does Bolts or the Stagger animation Bolts put the opponent in have airborne frames, or something?

Would it be okay if other people were allowed to put their insight, ideals or tech into using Dante with the more common assists?

Because I’m sure everyone knows that even with the most commonly used assists, Dante can still, and still IS coming up with hundreds of different ways to integrate them into his BnB’s for combo extensions, plus even as common as those assists may be someone might not have extensive knowledge in using Dante/EM Disrupter, but they do have tons of tech with Dante/Vajra or Rapid slash.

Also because you’re going to have to think about all of the combos that build good meter or is necessary if you want to deal more damage. Corner combos, mid-screen and corner to corner BnB’s, hit confirming off of grabs and air grabs, it’s honestly a lot to think about and come up with lol. I myself still have a few BnB’s and block strings with Dante/Hidden missiles that I’v wanted to get around to sharing but I have been too lazy to make a video or post the notations on here, but this gives me more incentive to actually get up off my ass and make a video or just post the notations.

Would you two mind if anyone else here pitched in and either made videos of our own? or just send you guys the info and you just make the videos yourselves, because like you just mentioned that might cause clutter.

I believe the video shouldn’t contain to much info, imo it should divide into 3 parts:

  1. basic bnb (as in the first post) from the common hit (like cr.L, hammer/j.S, ground to air M, air to air j.B/j.C)
  2. Optimal yet stable BnB (hammer into volcano j.B j.C killer bee, dash back S~C stinger etc come in mind, or even shot loops)
  3. some common combo extenders with assist

At least, that the kind of video I would like to find if I was just picking Dante.
