Challenge 12: The Shadow Knows

Post by Maj »

Perform an SFA3 Variable Combo using at least 90% meter, where only shadows hit the opponent. In other words, the V-Ism meter counter on the last hit frame of the combo must be 90% less than the value on the first hit frame. Additionally, the combo must remain midscreen for at least 45% of the V-Ism meter duration.

Valid entries are worth two points. One accepted entry per person. Once an entry has been accepted, the performing character becomes ineligible for subsequent submissions.

So here is my first SFA3 thing. I think I barely met all the requirements. Memory addresses for state (neutral/non neutral etc) seem to be FF8406 and FF8806 for player 1 and 2 but I had him mashing PPP just to be sure.

95%/45% is harsh: is it possible for everyone?

Awesome! Two points for you sir. I'll add them to your score near the end of the week. Thanks for reviving this challenge; i was looking forward to it (before i forgot about it).

Haha i don't know. I never even tested this one. Just one of those "it's Alpha 3, there's gotta be a way" things. Kinda how i could issue an XSF challenge like "obtain an XSF arcade board and perform a combo that physically turns it into solid gold" without a shadow of a doubt that it would be possible.

Air recovery is just PP. The neutral one doesn't work close to the ground, so this is not a reliable method.

Use an opponent in classic-ism. They can't be juggled after a neutral state.

That one's awesome too! So stylish. I must have watched it 10 times and i'm not even a Karin fan (though she's cool when she's beating up Sakura).
