Street Fighter X Tekken

Can't decide between Vega+lars or vega+king.

Found a combo on vega that does 408 damage no meter @.@ with tag, I got that up to 508 w/o mask, and only doing a DP with lars.

533 damage with Vega+King, using Knee -> AA DP, haha, so insane. No mask still, but over 400 damage solo on vega... goddamn, lars goes good damage as well.

if the Lars DP is the opener of the combo good luck getting it in. his DP has good combo follow potential for partners since it launches so high, but the range it actually can hit grounded oponents is small compared to other DP moves.

Seems there's a costume sale going on at XBL...

Here's a link of all the costume pictures: http://imgur.com/a/iaiAS

I only played this game for a week or so.... I was using Hwaorang, I'm trying to find a good partner for him

No, it was used to end the tag cancel part of the combo, I never really worked out an optimum tag in combo for him yet. Vega+King back and forth combo, got up to 580 for 3 bars :/ but a vega only + no mask, into the 3 bar special netted 681 damage with king, so that's the way to go for damage with 3 bars, but with 1 bar, starting with vega, can do 493, which isn't bad I think. Gonna mess around with Lars now, got a combo to do like over 400 solo.

hwaorang basicly goes fine with any partner. He has very good setup potential for his partner and can not be zoned out that easy. You might want to use a partner that can launch his ground bounce combo setup into the air. Sakura and Juri come to mind. Lily comes to mind if you want to juggle your opponent with EX moves (also non ex moves but less dmg potential unless its allready scaled to fuck), Nina might be a good too. Or use xiyaou if you want to go herpa derpa style with your partner and only want to use it for mix up and dmg.

Apparently Lili's dive kick and dominating heel do not force restand anymore...

... thanks Capcom.

Meh, can get 505 off Lars > vega, but only 498 off vega > Lars. Best thing I can figure out to do off a tag is st. HP xx DP couldn't get any other moves to work or juggle more. Know any after tag combos with Lars? These are all damages of jump ins of course.

Vega combo is:

J.in FP, cl. FP, cr. mp xx MK ST, CH, HK ST (Switch cancel)

King: upf MK, DP punches
Lars: st. HP xx HK DP

Lars combo is:

J.in HP, cl. hp xx qcf k, k, st. HP xx HK DP (cancel).

Off vega on tag in, doing cr. mk, cr. mp xx HK ST.

I am not a Lars player but shouldnt you be able to follow up vegas starting combo with cr.MP qcf k, k, cr.HP xx HK DP?

oh wow seriously oO, that means you have to use the Cr.HP 1 frame link to force your oponent into restand. Thats serious bullshit, considering one of her AAs got a bit nerfed and that EX angel knee still doesnt hit crouching oponents (I guess Capcom backed up on that one). So they nerfed her there and gave her to compansate EX Knee that is now Jump cancalable (and STILL doesnt hit crouchign oponents).
and here I was wondering what I did wrong that my oponent isnt standing orz ._.

EDIT: Kazuya is so NOT herpa derpa style anymore lol. that wave dash got hit bad with the nerf. Is only projectile invincible. You can hit it now with high attacks too. So much for no more herpa derpa style for kazuyas <3. And that EX slaughter hook nerf is nice too. God I hated Kazuya in this game, he could lock almost every char down with that stupid wave dash ---> DP shit.

apearantly Poisons cr. HP can be linked into her cr. LP. I need to test that out tomorrow, that would bump her combo dmg by a fair bit.

I think Lilys forward MK ----> MP move god nerfed slightly on block, cant jump after it gets blocked for the life of it, allways getting hit before I can leave the ground even.

Fuck Blanka Players -_-. we are back to the SFIV herpderp style with him due to the throw buff, god...

Nope, off launcher, I can get cr. mp qcf k, k, but can't get cr. hp or just a raw DP to land. Both teams seem really good that I have lined up, probably because Vega is just so good himself. I haven't even gone into wall bounce combos with Lars yet, and I'm still able to pull off 500 (with jump in, obv).

You might be able to follow Vegas HK ST with Lars: Jumping HP/HK, cr. HP xx DP(HK). might net you more?

[Chun Liroy]

Goddamn, this netcode is still PISS POOR, jesus christ lol. It's like I'm moving in slow motion.

[Callisto]

Clearly that's the netcode, and not the Leroynet.

[Callisto]

ugh, forgot that m and h tatsus were a knockdown on Sak, that sucks.

[Chun Liroy]

Was happening with arturo last night, this shit is like ridiculous lol. It's one thing to lag, but it's like all of a sudden moving in the opposite of x-factor making it impossible to block, and combos even harder than SF4 lag. Like, I can understand button lag when yo are lagging, but the ENTIRE GAME SLOWS DOWNm like it's losing frames. Literally unplayable, but I'm bored.

[Callisto]

Forgot how fucking janky the combo system is for this game, none of this feels natural at all.

[Moridam]

i didn't spend much time online with the game, but i definitely recall having similar issues to what leroy described around launch.

i might give this another try now that 2013 is out, but the changes just don't seem substantial enough to make me care. i just don't really care for the overall feel of the game.

[octopus]

I completely forgot how to play this game lol....
