It's christmas time, and I feel like making a thread. <3 Ridiculous combo inside!

[Boxob.]

But this one has a purpose. It's to announce to all of you the greatest and steakiest combo ever conceived! (Well not really, but it's ****ed cool)

Anywho, my Christmas present to you guys.

Dair to HA.

Hitting someone at a low percent off the stage with the later part of dair allows you to follow up with a Homing Attack because it pops them right above you. This is perhaps the least practical combo I've ever come up with simply because they need to be at a low percentage, off the stage, below the stage so you can hit them with the end of Dair without using spring so that you can homing attack afterward.

I love impractical ****.

Eat lots of steak, happy holidays everyone.

 

[infomon]

Yeah, I love doing that. I wonder if there are %s at which they're actually in hitstun long enough for the HA to necessarily get them? .... errrrr, no way, it's brawl lol...

Another thing that's amazing if you pull it off, is Dair > footstool. You have to be at Dair-autocancel height above them, so you don't actually hit them with Dair's hitbox.... but it's really awesome to pull it off. Especially after a spring, when it's ueber-dangerous

Oh! and for mad craziness:
up-B > footstool. It's not just for when opponents are ledgecamping.....

1. if you're both returning to the stage, and they're above you....... they won't expect you to up-B suicidally-early and then facejump off them to get to the stage, lmao, it looks amazing to pull it off

2. Insane combo: Up-throw > up-B > footstool > Dair and go at it. Alternatively, you get crazy mad points if you Up-throw > up-B > footstool and they land on the Spring, so you can Dair back onto the spring and follow up with an attack in the air, with like an Fair or something. Note that Up-throw doesn't send them straight upwards, so you may need to B-reverse your Spring. Obv it's very DI dependent, but any attack that sends them upwards into position for a Spring > footstool them onto Spring > follow-up is made of win.

Merry Steakmas!!!

 

[JayBee]

*shakes head* you could have... you know what? not even gonna flame about this... Merry Steakmas, dam.nit!!!

 

[Camalange]

MERRY STEAKMAS!

Well, I never used a Dair with a FSJ, but I have been incorporating the spring a LOT more in my game. I was playing some matches last night and got like 3 kills by Dairing into a spring and following up with a Uair. It makes me sad that I only recently started using the spring this way >_>

Spring canceled aerials ftw.

@ Cam
Its called Springgames. Sorry if its a sucky name. Boxob and Cat know what I mean.
@ Boxob
I always follow up dtilts, grab or pivot grab. That could be something to play around with.

 

[SonicX580]

Thanks for the tech Boxob but I already know how to do that (I had lots of steaks for steakmas I even had breakfest for it.)

 

[Espy Rose]

I've pulled off Homing Attack -> Homing Attack before.
Worship me.

lulz.

I rarely use dair, but when I do, it's to get to the ground after UpB, dairing near the edge to try to wall spike, or, my new favorite thing to do with SDR:

SDR -> SDJ -> Footstool Jump -> Dair.

Screw the spring, just jump to the last step. Besides, it's more than 4%.

It's too good.

 

[TheREALShadowChaos]

HA for the win. Stop tricking yourself into believing that it sucks.

 

[ROOOOY!]

I do believe I've made a new worst enemy.

And Boxob, a combo including Homing Attack?

...

I really don't know what to say. You guys need to start playing opponents with reflexes.

 

[Chis]

Roy, a few matches?

 

[infomon]

Did Boxob really misspell Steakmas, or was that artificially modified?

 

[ROOOOY!]

I don't really like playing online.
And I've been drinking.
And I've just put Shaun of the Dead on.

Ehh, maybe tomorrow.


@Infzy: Modified, I think. So much for keeping steak around but exclusively to the Sonic boards, eh? D;
