10 Elphelt Combos To Get You Started - Guilty Gear Strive

[@redica_val8805]

I dont usually like to refreence videos for combos and usually stick to dustloop wiki, but your vids are the best, especially when new characters drop

[@KineticOrochi]

Appreciate it bro 🙌 hoping i can put up a few more elphelt videos but my schedule is pretty busy for the next month after Monday

[@opheliayoung1122]

Yeah legit, this combo's are way more helpful then dustloop

[@baka_felix]

I'm new to fighting games, so this looks like literal rocket science.

[@KineticOrochi]

Haha we all been there

[@theguy7585]

thats what im saying lol

[@speeder6929]

0:08 is easily my favorite combo I've seen for Elphelt, and one of my favorite combos in the entirety of GGST. That combo is not made to do physical damage, it's made to do emotional damage.

[@KineticOrochi]

It also works with red rc instead of wild assault from what i saw a comment earlier 👍

[@ps3wizard45]

I cannot get the 214 heavy, mid air heavy to link to the close slash, it always drops it there. :(

[@JustSippingTea]

​@@ps3wizard45 You need to input the c.S slightly before you touch the ground or else the input comes out too late usually

[@brokenspike2768]

@@JustSippingTea This helped me a lot thanks.

THAT DUST COMBO at the end is a game changer! I didnt know that!! Thank you. Sincerely returning veteran from Revelator. Go ELPHELT!!

[@BC-lg7hf]

On the corner to corner if you don't have burst, you can substitute wild assault for 214K > dash red roman cancel

[@KineticOrochi]

Good catch glad theres multiple paths 👍

[@Shurmash]

One of the best redesigns ever. Elphelt is amazing. Love her James Brown split into fry scream. Just beautiful.

[@Roder-f5u]

Thank you. I recently started playing GGST, and I really like Elphelt's theme song and victory scream. It has been a great help.

[@KineticOrochi]

Of course bro 🙌🙌

[@x1n00bie]

i found that a "better" dust combo is doing jKS > 9jKHS > jS > 9jKK. it does 180 and hits smaller characters with weird hit boxes like may every time.

[@dsagent]

I've been playing her to hear the "DIE!" scream.

[@KineticOrochi]

Oh so thats what she says even better

[@FlyingVinix]

I was looking for a combo guide for Elphelt to learn Strive again, thank you. ❤

[@cecil6075]

ive been playing a lot of El and it's a double W for me because not only is Elphelt super fun, but also as a Baiken main I know exactly where the gaps in her rekka are where I can 236p against people just mashing

[@Dr4gonDestroyer]

Great video, but there's an important note for the command grab combos you showed. They will NOT work against any opponent who propperly breaks out of the stagger, there is no way to combo from the command grab into the explosion without spending meter. The best option after grab imo is to do 214S, if they don't break out of stagger you can combo into K followup, wait for the explosion and link with c.S and etc. If they do break out of the stagger, which any good player will, they are forced to block your 214S as they're not allowed to do any action while exiting stagger, even a frame perfect dp input will make them take a hit. From there you get a high/low rekka followup that will chain into the explosion so they either get mixed into a combo or you get a reset from the explosion.

[@KineticOrochi]

This is top tier info man going to test this further today 👍💯

[@usyagi3746]

@@KineticOrochi i'm lead to believe that your combo post command grab works? In video, the combo number isn't grey, which means it was a true combo and you did things quick enough; they couldn't mash out. Anecdotally, I just went into lab and set the bot to "fast" stagger recovery and it didn't mash out in time; the combo number was still white.

[@KineticOrochi]

@@usyagi3746could be i haven't seen anyone escape it yet but i can't say i've tested it throughly.

[@frorociousexpress]

even on the fastest stagger recovery in training, the combo still works

[@scouthenry]

thank you, i've been really struggling to setup combos. this helps. thanks!

[@KineticOrochi]

🙌🙌💯

[@Wolvahulk]

Thank you for the guide, as a relatively new FG player, and someone compeltely new to Strive (though I did play the OG Guilty Gear and a bit of Accent Core +R) I now have something cool to work on while learning the game. I really like Elphelts attacks and overall character, I wanted the game for a long time and decided to get it on sale for the holidays. One thing I'm sure many of us would appreciate is if these combos could be added to the Combo Maker/Searcher in GGST. Ofc its just a suggestion, I appreciate the work regardless.

[@KineticOrochi]

Thank you bro i def will for the next character 🙌🙌🙌 unfortunately i dont have time to do these

[@anqr7193]

I’ve always wondered how players pick up new characters so quick, I still barely decided on a single main for this game😂

[@Coleslawman17701]

Don't worry, you'll get the hang of it

[@noahtimeitis0158]

please do a full combo guide this video is so helpful!!!

[@calebstanerstratsshop1834]

Coming back here to see if i missed anything with elphelt. The 2h ch combo is so dope i gotta learn it.

[@sleepfgc]

This is awesome, thank you!

[@KineticOrochi]

Got you bro 🙌🙌🙌

[@lointmoint6703]

“Thank you kinetic Orochi” they all said In unison

[@Jonas0Wahl]

yo im actually gonna main her in a local and this is great, thanks!

[@KineticOrochi]

Let me know how you do 💪💯

[@boosted4502]

f.S > 5H round start does not work on Sol, Bridget, and Asuka. Also, going any further will result in side-switch.

[@KineticOrochi]

Yep follow up with js instead of jhs in case side switch or you can keep it simple with 214s after 6h but no wall break

[@Hokag3Chrisku]

These combos are fire!!!

[@KineticOrochi]

Thank you bro as always 🙌🙌💯

[@LordOfAllSwine]

Just to note I haven't checked it for all characters but for some reason unless I am messing it up some how the first combo doesn't work with sol.

[@KineticOrochi]

You right looks like some characters and distance will cross up will update with a more consistent route and maybe upload a quick short for that one

[@LordOfAllSwine]

@@KineticOrochi no worries man good video though I have learnt a lot :)

[@illfaptothat1515]

I'm not sure if someone mentioned this already, but i noticed the round start combo will not work on Sol Badguy. The hs after the far s will whiff. Might be character specific. Haven't tested it on every character though. I'm only a scrub floor 10 player so take this comment with a grain of salt. Would love to know why that is if someone knows. Love the video so much!!!

[@kazmaBlends]

Someone also mentioned this above, OP said it might cross or whiff some character and that he might make a shorter video with a consistent route :DD

[@Its_Toko]

W video, thx dude

@@KineticOrochi Yo do you have an 'advanced' combo guide? Or one that you recommend?

[@jeremiah-tx6ex]

Nice. Did you put these combos in the combo maker? i would love to practice these.

Not yet i have to figure out how to use that tool

@@KineticOrochiwould be amazing if there were on there, it would make practicing so easy

[@justasillyclown1353]

​@@KineticOrochiYou just have to go to combo create, select your character, then when you're in, you go to the pause menu select record, then do your combo when you do it press save, click a empty slot, there you can pick individual settings like naming it, comments, and upload and save where you save it then post your combo

@@justasillyclown1353 so i created one and saved it but how will you be able to find it? and will you be able to find all my combos or just the one?

[@richardkutsera4992]

"Roundstart combo" - 11 lines - takes 1/3 of enemy's HP, pushes them to scene transition... "combo to get me started". This is scaring me as casual, scaring me away from buying this game XD

[@KineticOrochi]

Hahaha its easier than it looks!

[@richardkutsera4992]

@@KineticOrochi For you maybe XD I have tried different fighting games. MK1 is the only one where I can do longer combo strings, sometimes even against other players. DB FighterZ I could do one or two in PRACTISE MODE. In MK1 there are much less directional button imputs involved...that is what makes it hard for me in other games. I have to pay attention to do down 1, down 1, back 2, forward 3 correctly, my finger slips even if I can pay atttention. In MK1 one it is more like forward 2 - 2- 3- then 2 - then down forward 3 - And such. Much easier, for me. Also with those stupid 3 directional button supers. back-down-forward 3 and whatever. It does not come out consistently.

[@vegimite5671]

​@@richardkutsera4992 It takes a little practice, but combos in strive are similar to ones in MK, just more fluid and not as fast paced.

[@dariuszupan8145]

Input order would be nice, but otherwise I like it a lot thanks

[@istergamer]

The first one seems to be ky specific and not very reliable, I tried with sol and even if I get closer so it works elphelt changes positions with sol after pineberry...

[@TheDeathby2]

To be specific, it doesn't work on Sol, Bridget, and Asuka.

[@skiks3562]

Fighting Elphelt the first time: Oh dear God... Fighting Elphelt the fifth time: Huh, "Here I go" is actually pretty easy to punish. This character isn't that scary. I watch this video: Oh dear God...

I can’t get the dash cancel on the 2H counter hit if my life depended on it. I can dash cancel normally but I can’t seem to figure out the timing on that one

[@Nicozcool]

Hello, I am able to get off the first few combos fine in training mode, but when I play online matches I always drop it at the HS after the cherry bomb move. I can't tell if im too early or too late but i cant get it specifically in real matches.

[@vagetaintherain5595]

Why doesnt my jumping slash not hit after the bomb. I end up infront of the guy and dropping

[@KineticOrochi]

First combo may cross up sometimes use jump slash instead after the bomb to be able to link after crossing up

[@Noodle5x5]

I will now go live in the lab 🫡

[@KineticOrochi]

You got this 💪💯

[@rauschka3395]

Can opponents escape wild assault into forward HS in these combos

[@TheDeathby2]

For some reason, far s into heavy slash on round start doesn't work on Sol. So the first combo is useless against Sol.

[@KineticOrochi]

Freaking sol and his bs 😂😭😭

[@TheDeathby2]

It's not even like a weight issue bc it hits the lightweights like May fine. I think there's just something buggy about Sol's hurtboxes.

Can't get the dust combo down and I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Any ideas?
