Updates



Well peeps, the Rage Death Combo series is drawing to an end. I have completed 18 Rage Death Combos and have upload 14 of them on YT via private share.

The final combo by Raven will be uploaded tomorrow. The remaining 5 Rage Death Combos will not be seen until the release of the 'Death Becomes You' combo video which hopefully won't take me too long to put together and edit.

Don't worry tho, I'll definately keep y'all busy with my brand new series 'Helping Hand' tutorial vids which will come out pretty much right after my last Rage combo goes up.

Oh and without giving too much away, here are the characters I refuse to find Rage combos for and reasons why

-Eddy/ Christie... I hate Capos (lol)
-Bryan... too many on YT already, if I do one, it would be a frame by frame copy of one already uploaded.
-Steve... see Bryan
-Bob... too much work
-Nina... can't do 'flapping wings' too save my life
-Kuma/Panda... not a fan of either of them
-Law... see Bryan
-Ling... don't know how to use her properly
-Baek... tried, too much work
-Yoshi... doesn't have the tools in all honesty

So yep, you won't be seeing those guys/gals in my combo vid.

However I will say I wasn't intending on finding one for Asuka but I did so things might change.

Sorry All

I really wanted Blogger to be the place to host my Death Combo series but it seems like I have hit a hitch.

Just letting everyone know, I'll keep this blog running with other insights till the new month and then I'll will upload the remaining Death Combos.

I will be saving 5 Death Combo for the "Death Becomes You" combo video tho, just so it's not going to be the same ol', same ol' but with fancy editing.

Also immediately after the final DC is uploaded, I'm going to start uploading my 'Helping Hand' series.

As before, if you really want your Death Combo fix and can't wait till the new month, just send me a message on YouTube at www.youtube.com/pigeondrago and add me as a friend. I'll then send you my DC's as private videos.

Interesting...

Well it seems Blogger has it's limits. I have never tried uploading video after video and for some strange reason it's refusing to upload my Marduk Rage Combo. Maybe I have hit my upload limit for this month or something?

I am going to try to do it again (a very rare (for me) weekend upload) and see what happens.

Worse case scenario, I'll wait for the new month and upload the rest then.

If you really want you Rage Death Combo fix, add me on YouTube as a friend and I'll add you to the list of people I send the video to as a 'private' video.

Anna Raged Death Combo



This ones for Arkayne!

Character: Anna
Stage: Fallen Colony
Restrictions: Jack 6 only
Transcript: CH d,df,f+1,d,df,f+1,2,df+3,2,ss up,3 B! f,f+3,4,3 wall dash db+4,4 floor break! f,f+3,4,b+3,2+3

Notes:-this combo relies on a unblockable interupt. If you interupt Jack's Dark Greeting (f+4~1) right near the end it adds tons of damage.
- positioning is very important for this combo, bad positioning and the ss+3 B! will miss or f,f+3,4,3 will not cause a high wall slump.

Next Up: Marduk

Heihaichi Raged Death Combo



Since I got tons of Death Combos, I have decided to do a double feature today. First is Heihaichi.

Character: Heihaichi
Stage: Temple Grounds
Restrictions: none (see 'notes' tho)
Transcript: (d+3+4)2,ss up,df+1,1,d+1 B! dash f,n,d,df+4,4,1 wall ss+2,1 wall break! f,n,d,df+1

Notes -this is the minor charge version of d+3+4, maximum charge does alot more damage (60 vs 84)
- you need to wait at least a second before you do f,n,d,df+1 to get the full ground hit. Doing it straight away will do less damage.
-d+3+4,2 does a extra 6 dmg against people related to Hei, this means on Jin, Kaz and Lee the first hit does 66 not 60 dmg. This doesn't affect himself or Lars even through Lars is his son.
-you can subsitute the final f,n,d,df+1 for an Omen Thunder God Fist (f,n,df+1) however timing is real strict and the damage is minimal at most.

Incoming!

Just touching base before we go into the next round of Death Combos (a.k.a DC)

You might noticed in my side bar that I have now found a name for the previously announced combo vid. I am running with "Death Becomes You" a Zafina quote (what can I say, I love me some Zaffy). I have found 13 of the 20 combos (7 are already uploaded) I think I might not upload the last 5, mainly because I want to save them for the actual vid.

Speaking of projects, another project I will be working on is the 'Helping Hand' project. I had this in mind since DR and basically it's a visual tutorial to help people pull off some of the harder moves in Tekken. Expect a tutorial for Just Frame Sky Rocket, Omen Thunder Godfist, Lee's Mist Trap throw and more. I will include detailed descriptions and visual cues to look for and I will also be taking advantage of T6's 'command history' feature. I think I will release the first part in this on-going series in this week so keep an eye out for it.

King Raged Death Combo



Character: King
Stage: Anger of the Earth
Restrictions: Probably wouldn't work on girls, everyone else is okay.
Transcript: CH uf n 4,f+2,2,1,f+2,2,1 wall uf+1+2 fb! df+2,1 wall iSW

Notes - this combo relies on a un-blockable interupt (i.e get an opp to do an un-blockable and you hit them just before it comes out) The interupt adds the needed damage because as a normal combo it takes the opp down to 2-3 dmg left... I know lame.

Next Up: Heihaichi pP

Zafina Raged Death Combo



I was going to save this for 'Other Ways 2 Die', my forthcoming remake of my 2nd combo video (think of it as Another Way 2 Die 2.5) but since it is a death combo I decided to share it early.

Character: Zafina
Stage: Fallen Colony
Restrictions: Probably won't work on Ling or Wang but everyone else is fair game.
Transcript: CH b+2+3,f+2,3,b,f+2,3(SCR) 3+4 floor break df+1,4 wall f+2,3 (SCR) 4 Probably one of my favorite ones so far and no I am not bias.

Notes- yep unblockable starter but the stun is unbreakable.
- I muted the audio because of random sound effects going on in the b/ground.

Next Up: King

Feng Death Combo (Concept)



Wanted: Decent Jack player to perform hcf,df+2 on me so I can reverse it.

Character: Feng
Stage: Anger of the Earth
Restrictions: only works on bigs.
Transcript: (timed reversal) ws+1+2,f+2,1,2 wall db+2,2,2 B! f+3,4 wall f+3,4

Notes- This is a concept video because I haven't been able to do it in Versus mode because I need someone to do hcf,df+2 with Jack so I can reverse it. I am accepting volunteers.

Hopefully I will be able to re-film this before the combo video... oops did I let that slip? Yep, I am planning a combo video, hopefully using direct capture for all my death combos.

Next Up: Zafina (yah!)

Wang Raged Death Combo

My Wang is still strong (lol)



Character: Wang
Stage: Urban Warzone (Yah! No Anger of the Earth lol)
Restrictions: Works on most sizes, probably not on girls. With medium sized people, dash and do the df+1,1 as fast as possible.
Transcript: db+1,df+2,1,f,f+2,f+1,f,f+2,b+2,1,1+2 wall df+1,1 B! f+4,1+2,1+2

Notes: db+1 is a breakable stun, other Rage combo makers are using breakable stuns through so I guess it is not taboo
-db+1 must hit on Non CH, hence why Marduk is ducking. db+1 on CH gives a unbreakable but harder to juggle stun.
-Alternate wall combo enders are db+2,4,1 and b+2,1,1+2... all variations can kill.

Next Up: Feng.

Bruce Raged Death Combo

Not an April Fool...



Bruce Rage Combo in full effect.

Character: Bruce
Stage: Anger of the Earth
Conditions: Works only on Bigs.
Transcript: CH b,f+4,b,f+4,2,4 MTS f+1 B! dash in, 3,3 wall df+1,2 FB! f+3,1 wall dash in, f+3,db+2,1,4

Notes: have to be one character forward after position reset.
- only f+3 connects on wall f+3,1 will make rest of combo whiff.

Next Up: Wang
