Part 12 of the 12 part tutorial series for DOA5.
Featuring commentary by myself "Emperor Cow".

This video is meant to explain the ins and outs of Tag Mode and highlight the main differences that set it apart from Solo mode. It also explains some features that are unique to tag mode such as Tag Canceling.

The following topics are covered:

- Tag Inputs 2:08

(For the record, All the guaranteed setups shown in this video were possible in previous versions of the game without the need of the Ver. 1.03A glitch)


I hope you find this video both entertaining and educational. :)

IT IS DONE !!!!!!!

I would like to send a special shout out to everyone that helped make this series possible. and an extra special shout out to everyone else who supported the project by liking, favoriting, spreading the word, commentating, or just simply watching... This series is my gift to the DOA5 community. :)

Thank you all again!!
 
It's obviously already been noticed, but I edited the thread title to reflect the current release and made some additions to the OP as well as popping it up to the top of the front page. Hope you don't mind, Cow.

Thanks! I really appreciate that :)

I was asked to make a write up of the project at orochinagi.com (great place for KOF lovers especially in the UK). you can find it here:
http://orochinagi.com/2012/12/the-dead-or-alive-5-tutorial-series

If you like I can simply re-word the first post to mimic it (its my writing after all).. just to make things more tidy and uniform.. its all up to you guys ofcourse
 
A little extra about guarding. Free-stepping towards foreground by holding 2 also auto-guards all low attacks, just like neutral crouching.
 
This is really cool - except Ryan Hart can't lace my boots in this game and (in true FSD tradition) no one should give a crap what hes pushing. . .even if its facts.

Escapable combo throws can also be escaped by pressing :h: instead of :H+P:.
Also a character is vulnerable to standing throws during normal forward-facing transition to crouch (e.g. by pressing :1: or :2::h:) for several frames, but is invulnerable from the first frame during crouch dash (:3::3_: ).

That video actually taught me something! xD
I never knew backstep techs avoided OTG attacks. Probably because I use Alpha-152 and she only has 1 tech. You probably should have mentioned in the video that the directional techs and wakeup kicks don't apply to her.
