Interesting read. I recognize some of these things which I did in my first DOA tournament. The thing is, it can be hard to put theory into practice, especially when you're under pressure. Knowing your stuff is one thing, applying it is another thing. I knew my tech, combos and safe strings but...

Oh you're talking about a different combo than the one I had in mind. But from what I've seen, buffering the dash should be the way to go. I really can't give any other tips than that.

Looking forward to playing Splatoon on Wii U and learning Kasumi on DOA once I've had my course exam on Friday.

Did you fully charge the second kick?

Universal Environmental Strategies - Wall combos (maximum damage): Feather: W! > 6P+K / 44P > 6PKKP+K Light: W! > 6P+K / 44P > 6PKKK Middle: W! > 6P+K / 44P > 6PKKK Super Heavy: W! > 8P > 6PKKK - BT P on hit near a wall guarantees a K or H+K wall splat. - Slamming someone into a breakable...

If the handstands really giving you a hard time, you are better off with the air throw finisher, imo. Much more consistent, requires less effort and the difference in damage is relatively small between the air throw and the handstand.

I'm fairly sure you are referring to @Corza's play, not mine. Also, what do you mean by using 1P as a relauncher?

MASTER can do it consistently. But what do you expect... it's MASTER. I can do it more consistently offline than online, though it is a pain to perform in both scenarios.

I think we've discussed this matter in a stream chat before but I'm going to mention it nevertheless: An interesting thing to note about this setup is that this setup will catch both people who slow escape and people who hold mid or high. Their only option of not getting hit by the throw is by...

What's the problem? Do you whiff the P? Or the 3KK? Or does the 3KK end up as a light ground attack?

Sorry for the late reply, but what I've been doing lately to get his WR 4KP / WR 4KK in a combo is: :3::3: :pause: :4::K::P: / :3::3: :pause: :4::K::K: Usually I just crouch dash buffer and I won't do 4K until I see Hayabusa crouching. I haven't nailed this move perfectly though, so I tend to...

In case you haven't seen already, this video might provide some visual help: (The combo you are asking help for is shown at 2:04 in the video)

For me it's the reverse, actually. I can play VF characters more effectively in DOA than VF. For example, I struggle with Jacky's Flash Sword Kick in VF, but not in DOA. It just depends what game you're used to, I guess. On the subject of Sarah's Combo Challenge, have you tried running...

Try doing a crouch dash first and then do 33H+KKH. So your input would be something like: 3333H+KKH. That usually works for me. As for 66K, you have to be pretty quick to perform the move without your character moving. It's pretty difficult, imo. But you can take this fact into account; my tip...

You can use 33T Izuna to punish strikes with a large amount of blockstun and which are very unsafe on block. For example, Hayabusa's WR H+K is -15 on block and during the long blockstun you have the time to buffer your 33T. It definitely has it use for punishing, it's just not that common to...

I can play Sarah to some extent. Which moves are giving you trouble in particular with regard to execution?

2T is usually a punish throw (as well as 1T). So it definitely has it uses. 33T can't punish everything and is more appropriate to catch people who like 'dem low holds.

Online, where are my holds? Why did you have to take them away from me? It's so unfair! >_<
