Anyone know a good place to learn about Jojo's? Kinda looking for Jotaro combos/bnbs but it would appear the internet has failed me. I don't think any of the arcades in my city (probably even country) have it.

Uhhh.

I don't know jojo notation. I know when something is preceded by S. it means Stand and by C. it means Crouching, but what's LA/MA/HA/QB/AA? Low punch/medium punch/heavy punch/???/???

LA = A, light attack
MA = B, medium attack
HA = C, heavy attack
AA = any attack, probably (makes sense in this context so shruuug)
QB = probably just mistyped QCB, unless I'm forgetting something (makes sense in this context since that would technically be a less damaging version of the infinite)

AA is two attack at the same time, in this game you do EX moves this way

hrm if that's the case... doesn't make any sense since the big punch super knocks down =/

I can't get the 2A after the 214B low jump C, timing on that sequence is crazy tight or something. Just like all of Jotaro's good combos! Once I get that though, it's fairly smooth sailing, just gotta practice the B&B tandem attack strings.

If anyone would like it, a few guys made a pdf manual for SFIV, labeling all command normals, specials, supers and known combos. I found it linked in an irc chan.

lol @ the #arcana SF4 related discussion, dat ban too strong

Also random thing that I should have thought of earlier but didn't until fubarduck asked about it-
Wind 5E/2E are JCable, which makes them special cancellable by TKing whatever move you were doing. Most useful for Clarice since she can pretty easily combo into 5E off 4C and her 236B/C will easily reach her opponent; plus she can do 2C XX teleport attack into combo as well.
Other characters would generally have a harder time comboing off 5E, sadly. Slight possibility that Kamui 41236B/C or Lilica 236A~C could reach in time? Lilica's would be more practical, if it was possible. I could see Maori doing 2E XX burning-paper-crane-sisters super or falling sister punch into combo.

~~Is there some special way to turn stand off mid-combo? I can't even get the F+MA after the 2x S.LA~~

Also I can't even tell what this 4-hit combo at the beginning is, as far as I can tell it's F+MA, JS.MA (but he somehow cancels the jumping motion? It might be C.HA?) QCB+A, JS.MA (again the weird cancel).

Turns out you can take your stand out instantly using Stand Attack, which is QCF+S. So the combo is F+MA, QCF+S, QCB+A, QCF+S.

+ Show Spoiler [Jotaro Combo/Mixup video] +

The second combo looks like buffer star finger, J.HA, (star finger hits) C.LA, LA, F+MA, QCB+A, J.HA, LA, F+MA, QCF+A, J.HA, LA, LA, F+MA, S, QCB+MA, QCF+S and that's 20 hits. Anyone else want to try copying that down? D:

Putting other Jotaro combos here for reference

Low jump J.HA, LA, F+MA, QCB+LA, J.HA, LA, F+MA, Tandem Attack Super, as super ends J.HA, LA, F+MA, QCB+LA, J.HA, LA, F+MA, QCB+LA, S, S.MA, S.QCB+MA, S.LA

C.LA, C.LA, F+MA, QCB+LA, Low jump HA, LA, F+MK, Tandem Attack Super, as super ends J.HA, LA, F+MA, QCB+LA, J.HA, LA, F+MA, QCB+LA, S, S.MA, S.QCB+MA, S.LA
