Vega Combos & Glitches

[System_1]

Sorry for the late update. I’ve been dealing with finals and family issues.

Great find on that bug Stars, I’d rep you if I could.

And, Bebop, how is that testing going? ;D

[darkfroggy]

I really hate the situational combos that only work on certain members of the cast.

[SacredCowboy]

i would contend that total knowledge of your main character versus the lack thereof is what is lame. i was hesitant to talk about it considering it adds to claws shortcomings, but knowing and understanding your character…the good, bad and the “lame,” will give you the tools to exceed expectations.

If that’s how you roll.

[System_1]

oh hells yes…im gonna try alot of this shit out later on

[bebop3000]

And, Bebop, how is that testing going? ;D

Horribly. The Vega players I’ve been in contact with regarding this technique have had zero luck getting it to work (Tatsu & Arlieth). So, it might be a while before I’m able to unveil this thing, if at all. :shake:

p.s. If I can’t confirm it by the end of next week, I’ll let the secret out.

[Rizhall]

If it’s something we could possibly help with testing it out with, I can’t wait. I’m definitely willing to burn a few hours a day to find something groundbreaking for Vega. =P

[Butters]

I hope you can figure it out, man. I’m at the edge of my seat!

bebop, you must succeed where we have fallen!

On jump ins I’ve been whoring FP->cr.Forward->RH.Scarlet Terror.

The 10 games or so I played tonight were some of the most well rounded games I’ve played yet from the standpoint of using throw for AA, and the above combo on jump ins and not reverting back to j.fp->cr.medium. Pokes, the whole 9. For some reason I had a tendency to forget all about that combo if I was concentrating on air throwing.

God speed Bebop.

Just so i’m clear on that combo, is it standing HP -> C.MK-> RH Scarlet Terror?

I need something to use against jump ins, and i just want to make sure i’m reading it right

[Buddha_s_Weapon]

He prob meant jumping in with hp, then c.mk -> rh scarlet terror.

[Saint_Gut_Free]

He prob meant jumping in with hp, then c.mk -> rh scarlet terror.

^This.

[System_1]

^This.

Ah, alright. That actually makes more sense

[Mezcal]

hi, im new. my question is kind of newbesque but yeah…

so here it comes: what punch or kick can i combo into crouching medium punch. i love that move, but i would like to extend it after confirming since linking is easier than chaining when it comes down to confirming.

Bebob, you better got something big cooking .D

if only one could combo rcf into ultra

[Jinofcoolnes]

One of the best ways Link it is with Cr.MK.

[System_1]

EX Flying Barcelona Attack xx Ultra?

Is that what you’re testing, Bebop?

[bebop3000]

Ack! Cat’s out of the bag! :lovin:

[aegis_neglector]

I am not to sure about this, if you read my post, I tested the same combo on:
Ryu
Ken
Gen
Dan
Akuma
Honda
El Fuerte
Fei-Long
Vega
Gouken
Bison

EX Wall Dive just goes over them, the cr.MP is actually at fault here, since it pushes Vega far enough to miss the EX Wall Dive and Bison and Gouken block the Dive no matter how perfect my timing is.

I did my homework mate, I think this is the first game where Vega’s longest range normal isnt st.HP…weird. But that is alright, st.MK is faster anyways.

Good news, guys!!! I wasn’t sure if anyone had posted this yet, but I found a solution to at least a few of the characters that ^ combo whiffs on. For everyone that can get hit by the cr. MP -> EX Wall Dive, use that, obviously. Unfortunately, there are some characters that simply cannot get hit by the EX Wall Dive no matter how perfectly you time it. That said, there are ALSO some characters that won’t get hit by EX Wall Dive after a cr. MP but WILL after a cr. LP! Here is the list that I put together today after testing it on every, single character:

…cr. MP -> EX Wall Dive:

Seth
Cammy
Guile
Dhalsim
Chun-Li
Zangief
Sagat
"Boxer"
C. Viper
Rufus
Abel
Sakura
Rose

…cr. LP -> EX Wall Dive:

Fei-Long
"Dictator"
Gen
Gouken
El Fuerte
"Claw"

Tested with no success thus far:

Ryu
Ken
Akuma
E. Honda
Blanka
Dan

I hope this helps everyone, and, again, I’m really sorry if I am repeating information. But, hey: better safe than sorry! :wgrin:

good, thats kinda what i thought. i have been testing this possibility, but i want to know how youre testing it. i get most luck when the ex-wall dive hits an airborne opp. and they’re close to a wall. the barcelona gets both slashes and i actually land in time to get the ultra only i fear i’m not fast enough, i usually fly right over them. suggestions?

Sweet! I was actually trying this out today. Couldn’t get it to work, but I plan to try it more later.

Hmm. Hopefully this one is able to connect (unlike Scarlet Terror to Ultra), sounds like it’s possible. I’ll give this a try myself sometime tomorrow, but if anybody has any success definitely let us know how it goes. Bebop, any luck on your end?
