this man speaks the truth, he resets me all day
If you dont kill on contact you sarent playing zero, hes not the best for his resets, hes a garunteed killer.

I can’t really agree with that, i’ve yet to see another Zero player besides Mihe who I would more often than not say they’d finish an LL, let alone 2 in a row if they heavily scaled their combo or didn’t have access to assists. We aren’t at the stage yet where doing LLs is a common thing and if you’re in a tournament/high pressure situation, dropping a combo instead of just popping the extra meter to dome that Vergil will most definitely come back to haunt you. Its especially not feasible to say all Zeros that play with Phoenix “arent playing Zero”. On top of that, Zero is a pixie character that gets TOD’d on accident, and attention is a resource, the more attention you expend on doing advanced loops is less you have to pay attention to the more important aspects of the game.
This theory talk is nice and all but at the end of the day no one in my scene is LLooping for free, and what? Zero doesn’t have boss ass resets? What are you smoking, dude can reset you into 3-4 back to back unseeable mixups if you know how to press your assist buttons
Anyway at the end of the day, whatever gets you the W, there are definitely people that can LLoop consistently but resets are excellent for those that don’t have the execution for it yet.
I see what your saying with the teamed with phx, But A lot of his resets most of the tine arent worth it because you can usually get a kill.
Also even if you drop LL its safe as fuck and can even cross up for you 0_0.

Youre still constantly missing the point, that LL’s aren’t common yet. People want to be able to play in tournament while still practicing LL’s on their own time. And if you can tell me how zero is getting a kill off one hit without LL’s i love to hear it…
It can only cross up if you crouch/chicken block it IIRC ( in the corner, which is where you’d be doing LL ), and the danger doesn’t come from dropping it, the danger comes from letting a character get away. For my Zero/Doom/Strider combo, I often can’t grab as much damage as i’d like out of a LLoop, because HSD causes me to not be able to relaunch after my Vajra/Ryuenjin extension, so I lose out on about 100k damage since I have to cut the combo short to start my LLoop ( theres probably some easy fix for this that i’m missing but whatever ). But anyway, i’m perfectly fine having meter neutral low execution ToDs.
If I have to work with an awkward confirm though, theres nothing wrong with saving 2-3 bars and just going for a reset. Its not the end of the world to risk going for a reset just like its not the end of the world if you drop a LLoop
With double assist extensions, most solid confirms will net you 1-1.1 mill with a strong DHC while building 2 meters, maybe with a small net loss of 10%.
eh, there isn’t that many double extensions, that’s the problem.
Hm? Theres plenty, and they all come with Zeros best partners. Drones/Jam Session/Rapid Slash/Hidden Missiles/Vajra + plenty more can be mix and matched to double extend combos.
Zero can do 500k on his own no meter no assist, Each assist you use in combo can add 100k-200k damage
ALL pre meter while building 1.5-2 meters. He touches you theres a high chance of death.

Yeah I get hard/Weird Hit confirms, but if you combo right then you wont have to LL sometimes, Rekkhoa does… 200-250k so thats about… 2LL so I can see Rek ending.

I just added a new tip to the end of the Buster section. It’s my secret weapon against flowchart trenchcoats.

Hell I could do ToD’s with my original team of Zero/Dorm/ Doom using Plasma Beam! People are all too prepared to just look at someone else for the answers.
As for LLs not being common… I dunno- since February I’ve felt like most Zero’s I see now, even new players are going for LLs or learning it as something mandatory. Maybe it’s different in your respective scenes but I can’t think of any Zero here that doesn’t do it.
I dunno if I’ve ever dropped it on stream, I just choke in other aspects =/
Well yeah linking me a video of dante/doom together is silly, they are thee best extenders for zero, together is just rape.
i just don’t feel theres that many…im curious, how did you ToD with zero/dorm/doom anyway?
Literally just by the power of DHCs. Chaotic Flame does stupid damage with Rekkoha so I was hitting 1.15m easy. And let’s be honest… That’s a ToD even if it’s not 1.25m.
Whatever corner carry you want + Dark Hole ‘Steb Ender’. Reekoha > Chaotic Flame.
If I was feeling ambitious I’d throw in a Dive , Buster, Lightning, Rekkoha quickly DHC to Dorm for the pickup (so they’re caught before they hit the ground from Lightning)
By Evo I expect LL to be way more common, even in norcal NOn zero specialist who just use him ( like chrisis ) go for LL. Its like Mvc2 Magneto with the Infinite. Almost mandatory or soon to be.

I don’t really know of any specialist Zeros, and the ones that I do know of aren’t prominent in the American scene/don’t go out to big tournaments. I dunno, Evo isn’t that far away, I doubt we’ll see tons of Zeros looping everyone at Evo unless it were the Zeros that have already been doing it.

You ain’t fooling anyone, whos Buster Shot did you have to take to the face to snag that banner?
Its been 6 months already, if you’re not LLing with Zero you’re playing an incomplete character. Id say its mandatory (except, of course, if you just started with Zero, in that case start learning).
Your talkin to me then.
