    why'd the dante/trish/wesker player keep throwing out random supers against pheonix? pheonix reaction supered every time and punished him hard.

    Because he's dumb as hell.

    Phoenix has the lowest life in the game at 375k. Chipping her out is a pretty viable strategy sometimes, but not via random super.

    It seems more that he was just kind of running out of hope. He knows that he's not on Chris G's level

    Chris is already running a team that you never see him play and bodying Jago through and through, so pretty much things get down to why the fuck not

    using a meter building assist with phoenix is clever, though. That had not occurred to me before.

    I can only do combos with Kyo.

    Gonna try clark hd combos tonight. I really like kim, but I like my point characters to have projectile.

    Why must I have character crises in every game i play...

    So the only way to win is to land a super, and you can't be elimated until you are supered


    That is the stupidest design decision I have ever heard

    That isn't even a game

    If the only way to kill/score is via building and using the super, then the game is shit.

    If it doesn't have a stock mode, then I probably won't even bother!

    Just nailed down a 5-bar, 100% hd, 798 damage robert garcia combo. Works off a hop.D. Not sure if it works midscreen yet.

    With 4 bars its about 650... Not sure if I should make robert anchor on my main team or just make a new team with him as anchor.

    if the best you're getting for 5 bars and full hd is 800, i'd say don't put robert anchor at all

    Pretty much this. My Iori HD combos for even just 3 -4 bars are 800-980. Athena can get 820 with 4 and EX Kyo/Kyo is like 890 with 4.

    And to get a little deeper than that

    a) I don't like Robert against most of the other anchors he'll likely to come up against, Shen especially
    b) You're completely fucked if you're ever at character disadvantage. They're on their 2nd char, and you're down to Robert. You can blow every last bit of your resources to kill (maybe) and then what? You have meterless Robert against Shen, Kyo, EX Takuma, w/e with at least a couple meters gained from your hd combo. Not a good place.

    Basically my entire philosophy for choosing anchor is
    1 - Can they handle Shen Woo
    2 - Can they efficiently use an abundance of meter

    Robert doesn't depend on meter, and I don't feel he gains much by having access to it. I feel he's best up front where he can not only generate meter he doesn't need but the opponent also doesn't have access to meter/will be reluctant to spend what they gain.

    Arthur is my favorite anchor because he's the shortest.

    So I guess my favorite KOF13 anchor is... that little old guy. The drunk one.

    There was a game that copied the smash rule-set, but had set HP limits instead of %s and stage knockoffs. It didn't work nearly as well.

    Can you imagine Brawl where the only way to kill someone was through final smashes, and people always flew the exact same distance when you hit them?

    Damn.. I gotta figure out better combos then.

    You guys are probably right about robert as anchor. Maybe I'll stick him second. Shen is dumb.

    All that talk about anchors makes me want to go back and learn more damaging Kyo combos. My best with him is around 750 for 4-bars. I can do dp.A xx qcf.D just fine, but I can't get dp.C xx rdp.b

    Are you talking corner only or mid-screen?

    My Kyo one is pretty simple.

    j.d+C, C, df.+D, HD Bypass, C, df+D(1-hit), qcf+D, rdp+lk xx Orochinagi, qcf+HP, Orochinagi(Normal or EX) xx Neo Max. It's 4-5 bars for 840-ish.

    You can actually do more in the combo if you're confident enough.

    That's alright if you have meter, but if you've only got 1 or 2 bars you really need dp+C [HDC] rdp+B reps. Tune your combo right and you can put out just under 700 for 1 meter, and generate damn near 2 in the process

    Mine is corner. I do

    stuff df.D [hd] df.D(1-hit) qcf.D rdp.b xx orochi qcf.a rdp.b dp.a xx qcf.d rdp.b xx orochi qcf.a xx neomax

    Looks like I do more stuff than you and I do less damage.

    Knob is right though.. in order to really push the damage through the roof I have to learn dp.C xx rdp.b.

    Which is tough because not only is that motion hard, but getting the dp.C to connect is a chore since it has so many start up frames.
