ComboVid

I held off from doing Robert combos because his combos looked intimidating but once I started learning him, his combos were actually really easy to understand and perform. He doesn’t have anything unique outside of HD mode so I basically skipped the basics and went into the advanced stuff. He’s one of the few characters who has more than one Neo Max depending on whether it fully hits or not. Although the fully hit version looks much more flashy and having 45 more damage than his partial hit version, it’s always better to perform the partial hit version since you can do more overall damage after it since it juggles the opponent. Of course you will need to find a way to set up the positioning for it since you might not have enough HD cancels to set it up.

This is the first time I actually had to use an arcade stick instead of a controller since to get most out of Athena’s combos, you need really precise timing. All the butt attacks in the video (other than obvious ones canceled from ground attacks) are the air version and not the ground one. Although much more difficult to do, it rewards you with many things such as more damage, quicker startup and can be done at pretty much any height allowing more hits of her Phoenix Arrow to connect. Sometimes it’s not a good idea to get more hits in the Phoenix Arrow since it will definitely add up in the damage scaling, but it actually does more overall damage when used after damage scaling is maxed. I also use all different enders for her Neo Max! Green (leftover color) for Elisabeth, yellow (lightning) for Benimaru, purple (flames) for EX Iori, black (tar?) for Saiki and bikini (KoF Kyo) for Kyo!

I won’t lie, this is probably the easiest character combo video I’ve done so far for the game. Takuma is quite a one dimensional character. His choices for ground combos or juggles are restricted to just a few options. Does that mean he’s terrible? Of course not! In fact, he does a lot of things many characters cannot. Some obvious things is that the majority of characters require HD mode in order to do severe damage. Takuma doesn’t need HD mode one bit. In fact, he shouldn’t even be going into HD mode since you gain meter while outside of HD mode which comes to the next thing Takuma is awesome at, gaining meter. He gains a ton of meter during his combos so it’s actually possible to start with less meter that the combo normally requires and still be able to do the full combo you are attempting.
