You want them either high or low. There’s a dead spot in the middle where if they fall into it and you are doing high loops they fall out.
No one falls out of low loops but the damage is somewhat lower than a high loop. you don’t get all the hits from the lightning is why. not a big deal usually but it does turn a 1 meter kill into a 2 meter kill.
i do mine very low as well, its much harder to time then high up or middleish. if you do wanna do them high though, look at where your lightning is after you do buster lightning. thats the height you want to achieve when youre doing higher loops. otherwise, right off the ground. to do them right off the ground you need to be on point though, if you go higher once youre fucked
I’m trying to pick up zero and I have 3 quick questions:
- When are good times to charge switch in the neutral game? For example when I’m moving around holding L but I want to shoot L raikousen.
2)When trying to otg with sentsuizan in combos, Zero tends to air dash. Why is this happening?
3)Any tips on avoiding Vajra assist?
- for air you can just press charge switch. press + hold m then do raikousen.
- I used to get this alot when tiger kneeing the motions. Now I just jump then dive.
- Just have forward movement. Strider has terrible forward and downward tracking. Super jump air dash forward avoids him completely. So does super jump teleport down. You can also punish strider with jump 2H into a punish combo. Takes practice to get the punish timing.
Just remember you can watch the name on the HUD and if it flashes he is calling strider.
I have just started using Zero and I’m having problems connecting the buster into raikousen L during the normal BNB on characters like She-Hulk and Magneto.
Any advise on these heavy characters?
You have to time it differently. You have less time to hit them with his dive move since those characters have a faster falling speed; also pay attention to how the character bounces on the ground, that’s kind of important.
Basically do your BnB up until that point where you use j.S into a hard knockdown. Once you land, jump up and then immediately do QCF+H when you’re in the corner and then do the rest from there… or you could use an assist if it’s too unreliable. :v
Weird characters (Magneto, Storm, Iron Man, Strange, She-Hulk, Captain America, maybe more that I’m neglecting) require a little adjustment. Before you do H Sentsuizan, instead of jumping up and doing it ASAP, jump backwards and do it at the height of your jump arc. This will guarantee the Buster xx L Raikousen works as expected.
Ammy and Shuma (I think) can’t be combo’d at all using Buster xx L Raikousen. Use Buster xx L Hienkyaku instead to get your relaunch. Assist extensions have to be modified as well.
I’m having trouble consistently landing Buster-Raikousen OTG --> Vergil Rapid Slash, S, j.S, j.S. I always seem to be missing one of the j.S’s (more often the second). Is the timing tighter with hitsun deterioration or am I missing something else?
Yep it’s tighter with hit-stun.
Hey! I have a question. 
Are any zeros going to Seasons Beatings?
I’m most likely going and I’d like to do some zero mirrors, because they’re my favorite match up and stuff. <3
come to ncr I was gonna go but no money for plane ticket and no sponsor :(…

Yea I’ll be there Kass, we’ll get a set in
No but I’m going to Summer Jam.
Anyone?
See you there buddy
Seasons Beating Chicago? No can do.
Summer Jam? In there like swimwear. I’ll be chilling in the salty suite a bit. Otherwise where is the Zero action gonna be.
Avarice, you gotta learn how to beat Cap.America
Flux, we still have to FFT for Phoenix Wright. I’m taking another Big Two off though (secret magneto training) so maybe we do it at Summer Jam?
Chicago? No. The one in Cleveland. :X
Summer jam? More like bummer jam. No I JK, there’s no way I could make it out to that. XD
Summer Jam sounds good Steve, I’m sure I’ll end up at the LI room sooner or later.
Pretty sure I won that game like 6 times. I just didn’t take the win for some reason XD.
What I actually gotta do is learn to pick characters I actually know how to play in tourney instead of 2-week-old Strider. Never. Again.
I did the same… except not on stream lol.

Regarding tournament characters, I’m thinking Zero Strider isn’t really a good tournament pairing. When your execution is on you are godlike, killing off every strider knockdown. On those bad days though, you will be wishing Dante or Missiles.
