EMPEROR_COW decided to run a multi-hour tutorial training video for Leifang in Dead or Alive 5 previously. He goes over some pokes, crushes, safe attacks, tracking, combos, etc. It's a nice video to go over not only Leifang but common things to look for in your character of choice. Jump to...

So during my match at Final Round 16 I noticed that :1::k: or :6::k::k: put an opponent in a slip stun on ice/water counter hit. This stun actually guarantees :3::K: which also guarantees :3::3::p: I think we should compile a list of slip stun attacks of such.

I've heard some players make mention that stages in Dead or Alive are just as important as a Character choice. For many players, they have some stages that instantly pop into their head as what makes them think of DOA. However, not everyone has the same favorites. So, I'm curious what other...

Many people know there are weight classes in Dead or Alive 5 that would cause certain juggles to connect or miss depending on the opponent. However, what many people do not know for sure is the exact weight classes of the characters and what the weight actually affects.Most people are under the...

This came up in a discussion with myself and Mr_Kwiggle at the recent GVN Winter Brawl 7 during the tag tournament. We wanted the Coming Soon Circus stage, the Gym, and Dead or Alive (DOA4 Wrestling Ring) to be removed from the Random Stage rotation in relation to the Tag Mode for our match...

Rig is obviously a good character for starter combos what with his :7::p:, :7::k:, :6::6::k: all being a guaranteed combo into CB!. However, I need help in finding his best juggle relaunchers when tagged in. Anyone know?

Been trying to find the most damaging combos off of super launcher. Weight Class and Counter Level determines the most damaging. Singles Normal Hold Middle Weight :p::h::3::p::3::p::h+p: - 107 + possible wall/ground Counter Hold Middle Weight :p::h::3::p::3::p::h+p: - 126 + possible...

With the new wake-up prioritization I wanted to get a list of good things to use as setups. I noticed this in v1.03 before v1.03a and it's nice to have them explain it. I noticed that :6::h+k: actually would break through the mid wake-up kick option. So what are some options? 214P? 33P? It...

So I've been toying with something lately to try and see if I can get Bass' BT game a bit more viable. I noticed that on an opponent who is in critical, Bass' :6::p+k: will stun longer than if on NH or on an opponent who is not in critical. If the stun is not stagger escaped then he can do BT...
