Avoiding the puddle did a video about this and there is actually a trick. You can charge then press forward light kick down back light punch and it will give you standing light kick into boom. That will give you plenty of time to charge flash kick. Edit you can just hold down forward after the stand light sonic boom and it's even easier.

22:40 yeah he mentions it in the next combo

The intention of Ryu's wall bounce into super combo (Intermediate 8) was actually to show that you can cancel EX moves into level two. If you do that combo, but cancel into level two instead of manually timing it, the fully charged level two will come out with perfect timing.

you should do a video on all these "shortcuts", which really, is just another way to input special moves in a very useful way

After finishing guile's trials, I've realized perfect booms are significantly more challenging during a combo than doing them in nuetral. Since, you have to time the perfect boom with the normal you're going to cancel from hitting instead of bufferring the boom as the normal is coming out.

The great thing about these combos is that while they're not optimal, they're plenty to get a new player started on a character. And they give you room to think of how you can optimize them by building off what's there.

Honestly I've tried a few combo trials so far with my little bit of time with SF6 so far (would of been playing more, just really busy lol) but I tried out Marissa's when I first got in so I could learn Marissa and I actually found it pretty aproachable, which is crazy good feeling for someone not as skilled as many others are. Makes me feel like I can actually do some nutty stuff

Hondas trials were very helpful. It teaches you pretty much all you need in any situation.

Sf2 had a guile trick where you went down back to back holding light kick, and down back release for flashkick.

I was stunned when I got to Guile Adv. 2 trial and saw those inputs. I learned how to do that charge buffer from c. LP to s. LK back in SSF4. And here it is again 10+ years later!

Nice video

Advanced 2 for Guile is hard, just can't seem to get the technique to pull it, MAD respect for you pulling it off in ONLY a half hour

For the flash kick into Super cancel I've always done Down back into up forward for the flash kick, which also counts as the first back forward for the super, into another back forward. The full thing for Flash kick into level 3 would be charge down back, up forward + kick (this does the flash kick,) quickly into back forward kick

@keiyousu7454

Жыл бұрын

Exactly this. It's the same concept as doing Hadouken into Shippu Jinrai in Third Strike, where the special counts as the first portion of the super input.

I think for boom into flash kick you could go 46 and charge on 3 instead of 1 then go from 3 to 9. Seems easier on lever.

Id love to see some Honda trials. My chunky spirit animal is looking mighty tempting this game. Hoping to main him.

Advanced 2 was created for Daigo specifically. I don't find it too difficult, but I play on pad so getting the perfect is tricky. The standing short to sonic boom is quite natural for me, as I am an old fogie and used to all manner of torture.

Marisa's combo trials basically show you how to play the character and deal a ton of damage. I really appreciated how useful the combo were and the links that they show off is helpful for making your own variations

i love the perfect sonic booms to flash kick combos, but they're a bit hard to pull. Guiles my favorite character so far

I'd love to see you attempt the Chun-li combos. Those are tough because they get pretty long with multiple stance attacks in some combos. Edit: Just saw they were in the Cammy video. 😁

Crofts: "These combos are so much easier than sf4" Capcom: "so you have chosen death"

I was struggling with ryus combos one gave me an example of a neutral jump to combo not jump into the opponent like u did

Regarding the order of the Combo Trials: it has all of the super cancel trials after the drive rush link trial because they introduce the super moves last, after familiarizing you with all of a characters regular specials and the drive system as a whole. Do I agree that super cancels are easier? Yeah. Does it make sense that they save the 'flashiest' stuff for last? Kinda also yeah.

Reminds me of Guile's standing fierce to flash kick in SFIV

Crofty beard = Amazing content.

These trials are very tough!

I picked Ryu because it feels like a lot of his cancellable normals go into any special you want so you can make custom combos really easily which feels great as a noob! Also doing an EX deijin charged hashogeki feels incredible bc it crumples the opponent and you can do whatever you want!

I remember back when the biggest hurdle to learning guile was 4 low light kicks instead of 3 before a flash kick. If you know you know.

Even as aomeone who has experience in fighting games I find some of the timings tight still, like drive cancelling. I can easily see how someone new to the FGC is having trouble with these

Hi, incredible charge player here, JMCrofts Certified ;)

Had a feeling for guile u couldn't hold down back to cover sonic boom and flash kick. Now everything makes sense

Loving these on DS4...

The 2nd boom can still be perfect. The trial is misleading in the sense that it makes you think the 2nd boom has to be imperfect. It's instead making the distinction that the first sonic boom HAS to be perfect no matter what. The extra plus frames of a PB on the 2nd one give you enough time to charge FK without doing a specific set of inputs to maximise charge time off a normal boom.

With every charge character theres away to hold the charge after going neutral, pressing a standing button attack, then 6+P

Guile’s cool! Glad we have modern controls so I don’t screw up the charge motions online and get rekt

I honestly think the hard part of Guile's last trial combo is getting the first perfect boom. I'm used to doing charge buffering techniques with 3s Urien and sf5 vt2 Oro, so the second boom fron LK and the flash kick is bread and butter to me. I'm trying to main Guile, and those perfect booms...or really just booms in general for standard use at fullscreen is what messes me up the most

Evo is gonna be sick

Bro the Kimberly combo trial with the spray can into the grab

It took me around 1 hour to finish Guile's trial 2. Luke's advanced trials gave me some trouble too.

I was wondering how to reliably hit a full-charged Hashogeki super with Ryu when first learning of the 3 charge levels. Turns out that you can cancel into it from OD/EX specials, and a midscreen Donkey Kick gives just enough time to hit full charge.

It took me hours to complete Marisa on Modern, classic I'm stuck in Intermediate. This is nuts.

chun might be considered harder bc of stance cancel shenanigans, would recommend trying her next.

There is a trick for that hard one. Hold downback for light punch, go to forward light kick, then go down back plus punch that gets your sonic boom out as you are charging

Ramsey Dewey of FGC, you're insightful like him too 😁

For intermediate 10, wait for the opponent to get on their knees after the punish counter before executing down heavy kick > forward heavy kick.

I was new to street fighter and I picked up Guile. It probably took me a couple hours over a few days to get advanced 2 down

I'm playing Guile primarily and there are easier routes with similar damage for a lot of these. Like on a punish, instead of Guile advanced 4, you can do HP (punish counter) xx Drive rush HK, HP xx Drive rush HK, MP > B+HP xx level 3. It consumes more drive but the damage is similar and the execution is MUCH easier. Alternatively: HP (punish counter), B+HP xx H Level 1, EX flash kick doesn't burn you out but still does a respectable 42% for two drive bars and one super meter although getting the charge for level 1 is not the easiest thing ever, but nowhere near as hard as Guile advanced 2.

Ryu is like a Mishima n I love it

hey man, great content! I'm also a fan of Combo Trials in fighting games - I've done all the combos in the SF series, UMVC3, but couldn't do it for KOF 13 - have you completed all KOF 13 combos? I'm on 95%

some of those trials are military-grade bullshit, props for reaching 95%. I have no advice 🙃

i don't usually play charge characters and i could not figure out how to get through the guile advanced combos to save my life lmao you need to know the super secret charge techniques (also i was playing on regular arcade stick not leverless which i think makes it worse.)

i figured something out, im not using a hitbox or anything just a regular controller, so you can hold down to charge a flash kick, and then release down, hit standing light kick, and then hit up and it'll do a flash kick, you gotta do it pretty fast though (since it works with flash kick, it probably works with the sonic boom too). So you can easily combo standing light kick with flash kick. The inputs are pretty forgiving this year, you can also charge back, hit punch and THEN hit forward, and it'll do a perfect sonic boom all the time. That ones a bit tricky to get at first but once you get it its great, almost all my sonic boom come out as perfects now

Done the Guile advanced 2 with PS4 pad 😊

I've done every trial in the game. They have some VERY interesting combos tucked in there, it was really fun.

I've been trying to do Guile's last advanced combo trial on modern controls, but for some reason, Ryu always block the super at the end after the heavy kick, any advice? Is there a way to buffer the charge sooner after the heavy kick?

I FINALLY DID IT! I literally just completed this awful guile trial before typing this. I use a fight pad controller. After the second sonic boom, I charged down+Forward into flash kick. But you have to very quickly go to down+Forward after the Boom to charge flash kick. I could never get the flash kick to hit, but my timing finally hit unexpectedly. It must be a 1 frame link. Now, I've completed all character trials.

With the 6 frame buffer its actually a 7 frame link which is pretty lenient unless your new to links in fighting games.

I know this video is 4 months old but as a new player combo trials have been so fun and frustrating. I need to look more at the settings to see if its there but I would love the frame timer thing and to see my inputs on screen. On another subject the characters I have loved as a new player are Luke and Ryu. I know Ken is better but I just like Ryu more. I also dont mind JP, blanka, and rashid oddly. I want to get good with Guile but I am not really digging charge characters. Anyways I really am hoping SF6 is my gateway into FGC. Smash ultimate kinda did that for me in that it got me into melee (which is far better than ultimate) so I am hoping SF6 gets me to try other games and maybe settle on one of the older ones as my favorite.

When i had the realization that back light kick gave bazooka knee i said yeah fuck that and closed the game for the day.

For some reason I've struggled more with kinberly's advance 1 trial but 2, 3 and 4 were not that hard, she has a Drive Rush Low starter in corner into HP that u have to dash cancel with her 236 Kick thing, its not that hard like guile but worth giving it a try

Sonic Boom to Flash Kick. Bring your controller to DF damn near immediately after doing the F+Punch on the boom. Take advantage of the very small buffer window. It allows you to stock just enough charge. The DF motion is good if you don't intend to cancel the Flash Kick into level 3 super. Otherwise, you have to reset your charge to DB very very, veeeeeeeery quickly.

Why do you want to do down back when doing sonic boom -> Flashkick ? Just do forward punch (sonic boom) -> Down forward to get the charge faster, Kind of like Boxer's Dash low. It doesn't make it easy, but surely makes it easier

LOOK AT THAT BEARD!!! Looking good brother, I hear that facial hair makes your execution better by 5% for every inch. of length.

3:34 if you super cancel the blade leg you can charge it

Maybe they should add a new mechanic to fgs, a variety gauge. The more you use a combo in a match, the less damage it does so it would incentivize using less than "optimal" combos. Maybe if you use a combo, the next time you do the combo it would be only 95% damage, then 90, and so on. If you use a certain amount of different combos it would reset the damage to 100%. Not sure how you'd go about characters with simple 2 or 3 hit staple combos, maybe using different strength specials would count as a different combo. I think it would fix these 1 trick pony players, it would add a lot of depth i'm sure.
