You have to do the special attack input as a part of the combo string.
Example for Ermac:

back+X, X, downback+X has to be input in one string in order to do his punch+punch+lift, you can't start the lift input after the two punches have connected or it won't work

That and if you try to add another button (or mashing) it won't work either.

Watching some of the PowerUp matches, Sub-Zero and Reptile have some nasty combos...too bad I'm terrible at integrating the dash into mine.

For something like Ermac's 2-2-Lift-dash-b1-1-Squeeze, do you do the dash input as part of the combo, like I mentioned earlier, or do you do it after the first string is done?

for dash combos, the dash is one thing you actually wait to time after your move is done. Best thing to do is mess around for a few minutes in training mode to see exactly how soon you can dash after a move and just get a feel for the timing.

Local reptile player is absolutely blowing us up right now. He can turn most any force ball hit into 40-45% for no meter. No mistakes allowed.

I kinda agree with what Aris was saying on the last WNF stream, that this is starting to seem like a game with relatively few tournament worthy characters. Rayden, Cage, Kung Lao, Ermac, Reptile, and maybe Cyrax seem to be the go to characters atm. I'm not sure exactly how sub zero fits in, a lot of solid players are using him but I don't think he holds up well in matchups where people can get around his clone or just out projectile him.

The PDP tournament this weekend will definitely be fun to watch, although I expect a lot of simple combos and execution errors because that stick is ass.

Awww really? I was thinking of ordering one. It's cheaper than buying another TE with the mod plate.

@Arhk






TEs are pricey but they're easily the best quality available without modding, and there's very little reason to mod anything on a TE but the artwork.

Pretty poor performances so far, idk if the players aren't used to the sticks or what, but I hope to see better tomorrow.

haven't been watching yet, but the players are forced to use those MK template TE's or something? that sucks. reminds me of the GS sf4 tournament when they had everyone on those garbage 360 pads X_X (although they did let top 8 or w/e use sticks)

Tournament is pretty good so far. I really wish there was more character variety but I understand that these guys want to win the 21k.
