I salute you sir, I also came from the Viper forums near the end of vanilla lol
You sound an awful lot like this Chrises guy on twitch stream chat…
Pretty damn good performance for day 1 Zero, even if he did get offed the majority of the time you still won and that XF3 comeback was hilarious! Looking forward to seeing Viper/Zero tech from you good sir.
I was in your UK stream chat the other day, my Twitch TV name is Chrisicera. I’ve placed in majors already back in Vanilla and intend to continue doing so in Ultimate. 
We dicussed a lot in chat and you don’t remember me? D:

captain america: “…???” I don’t know what his win quote is, hmmmm.
Played with two things today.
I came across a neat reset. During jump loop jump j.M lightning H xx buster, down teleport. Seems to be blow up most tech recoveries into a 50/50 (buster hits left/right, lightning makes it safe). Should be able to transition into ground mixup or instead of teleport do other stuff. Forget if it hits forward tech but a timed m lightning hits that. Guess for a guess, I guess.
Came across it while looking for unnecesary resets but it looks cool and may help me kill Haggar while I practice my lightning loop. FYI in a game with no air techs Zero can reset into 3 consecutive 50/50’s without assists before the opponent touches the ground.
There’s an easy side switch combo if you start in the corner. ground stuff into S into sj.S recover dive H. buster when you land dash link the s.M,s.H S, whatever, corner end. Maybe useful. You can showboat with it a bit at least.
Soooo, I’m trying to do the lightning loop in pad is there any hope for me? Advice please.
Yep. I have it at least at 90% consistency on pad. Firstly though you need to be specific, what you are having trouble with?
Thanks for replying, I’m mostly having trouble with my buster not being charged fully after activating Sougenmu. My only other problem after that is my tiger knee’s Raikousen sometimes are Super Jumps or regular DPs.
Random things I found of the moment:
Although Zero can ToD a fun reset is at any place you would do OTG dive xx buster, lightning. Instead do OTG dive, land, 214A or B, release buster for cross up. ^.^
When charging with C, you can do the slow, reactable 2369A, A xx 214B, xx release Buster for a near instant cross up, also works exceptionally well if someone wants to stand block an air C and you come down with obvious left A into ambiguous cross up buster.
OK man well it’s important we take it one step at a time of course
The trick to charging in time before Sougenmu ends is just that you keep L held down during the input of L Raikousen before you activate Sougenmu
If you are getting a lot of super jumps you are probably pressing L too late after the upward motion. What I’d say is just practice doing TK Raikousens in open space till you are confident that it wont drop. All it requires is tidy inputs honestly
Hey guys I need some help dealing with lockdown assists + rushdown point characters some example of these combinations include: Wolverine/Sent, Wolverine/ Ironman, Spencer/Sent, Spencer/Doom(missiles)
Usually the assists on their own are easy to deal with considering you have the opportunity to level 3 buster them before their stuff gets on the screen but considering that these point characters rushdown so hard and put you in a block string, being able to shoot that buster is really hard.
What do you guys do in the beginning of the match? I usually try to get a lot of space in the beginning but they come towards me to rush me down as soon as possible. Advice would be appreciated 
Right now I’m running Zero, Dante, Frank West
Ok I have a question on if this combo should work I do the relaunch combo twice and OTG and akuma assist then buster lvl 3 x l. Lighting and then launch with Dante jam session and of do the normal follow up with that. But I can never land the s.S into jam session and when I do I get the h.lighting but I miss the buster cuz it’s not charged all the way. Am I doin something wrong or is my timing just off?
is anyone else having trouble landing sentsuizan xx buster xx raikousen on shuma goroth?
Yeah it’s weird on him for some reason he pops out to high idk why it’s weird. But I’m sure it’s not that big of deal I haven’t seen to many shumas online or off line where I play
It doesn’t work on Shuma, nor does 6CxxRyuenjin. Everything else works. Use L-Hienkyaku in that combo instead.
Doesn’t work on Shuma and Ammy. Those are the only 2 I’ve come across with that prob
I started my morning the way I always do (thinking about charging my buster) and I had a thought.
What if I held every button to charge my buster? When ever I needed to press a button I could release just that button and press it. One downside is if I desperately need to press something NOW there is a delay. But for any planned action I could do things that way and never be forced in a situation where the button I need is kept from me by charging.
Has anyone tried this? I’m going to try it in casuals for a while and get used to it.
