Akatsuki Beginner Combos - UNIST Combo Guide and B&Bs for New Players

[@lastans18]

These are some of the cleanest and informational vids I've seen for any game yet. I especially like when you talk about spacing and timing in detail. It is not obvious to everyone that a delayed input is necessary for a section to connect. I think this is what is lacking from most (in-game) tutorials. Very well done. And thanks.

[@raidhyn]

Thank you for the kind words and welcome to UNIST 😁

[@aleatorios0000]

But in UNIST tutorials and character trials, it's clearly specified when an input needs to be delayed or charged. That's why this game has one of the best in-game tutorials ever.

[@okkinraiavo95]

CLEAN editing, my guy

[@raidhyn]

Thanks man! I had a ton of fun making this, and Akatsuki is totally worth the extra edit time.

[@noodlez4052]

Thanks for the video,I main akatsuki and he's been my favorite since Akatsuki blitzkampf.These combos really help and instruct me on what not to use and what to use

[@raidhyn]

Glad to hear it! Good luck on your UNIST journey 😁

[@DSDBEATS]

Great video. These Akatsuki combos are insanely good.

[@noremacx8]

@@raidhyn absolutely my streaming goal this year is to this game some recognition that it deserves. I haven't had so much fun with a fighting game since I was a kid and it brought me back to the insanity of MVC2 and Third Strike days.

[@Olivreira_]

i struggle a lot to learn even with videos like this

[@ThatGBAGamer]

Learn in segments! Learn the directions and notations and start doing them individually to where you don't even gotta think about it. Once thats done practice a combo with notations and do it 30 times. Once you get the flow take off the notations and try to say them in your head until it feels natural. Once its happening subconsciously you'll have to start learning strategy but thats after!

[@lastans18]

Some drills I find useful: this is a little winded so please bear with me. I hope this helps. 1)Try to do the movements of the combo with a stick/controller that is not logged on. Just practice going through the motions of the combo. This will help get your hands used to feeling natural doing the motions. For example: before I play I will go to training mode and work on ⬇↙⬅ and ⬇↘➡ without pressing the button and just watch the character move just slightly to ensure the inputs are correct. I'll do ten per side and then half circle motions. Slow to fast but focused on clean. 2) watch and learn the pattern of the combo. They all have a rhythm. Download a metronome app on your PC of phone and you can use this both with the first tip and in real time in practice mode to help with timing execution. 3) discipline and reward yourself for input mistakes and clean inputs alike. When you get frazzled and start mashing it out, give yourself a punishment (ie pushups, squats, etc.) This will not only give you incentive to get better, but you will also physically benefit from it as well. And when you execute well, reward yourself with whatever treat you enjoy. 4) Practice both sides. Each side feels different on the hand and through the eye. Get comfortable being uncomfortable. 5) As the first guy said break the combos down. But also only perfom each section of the combo until it is comfortable and then build from there in real match speeds. 6) Be patient, take breaks and stretch your fingers. Sometimes taking a break after working a tricky combo you come back and are suddenly able to nail it. Sometimes a day of rest is necessary. Let your body and mind absorb the information and feeling of the motions. 7) Have fun and work at your own pace. No need to get upset when it is only fun. No one is pressuring you to get better. We are all here to help each other get better. No one is judging you for not being able to hit that ridiculous combo. But it'll be dope when you do. 8) and above all else believe in yourself and encourage others.

May I add that the 6c > 214b to get all hits you will need to delay. So in reality it will look more like 6c > 2c > cl.5c > d.6c > d.214b

[@shadowX50]

i just bought uniclr for the switch because i thought this character looks really interesting to play. the one combo i am having a lot of trouble with his btastu to iw. sometimes i can iw but sometimes i cant iw after the b tatsu. any tips to work on the timing of inputs? atm i am using pad but i might try out a fight stick someday. this is a great intro video by the way, i really appreciate the tutorial.

Nice Combo Vídeo!!!!!!!

[@monkeythebin3756]

My problem is remembering the combos but pulling them off isn't a problem also remembering which to use when ._.

[@lucasblumhardt6153]

Why does it look like you're cancelling the 6C into 214B? For me, I have to wait until 6C is completely finished before I input 214B. It still combos, but I only land the last two hits of 214B

[@drwill439]

I need better execution. I always drop j.C>j.A due to the speed at which it needs to come out. Even when I get that link, I normally drop the button afterwards. How do you improve inputs?

[@ImSomebady]

Practice and consistency. Remember that when you input j.bca, you are not linking the air attacks, but chaining, so you can press j.A during the j.C animation, with no delay between the buttons needed

[@drwill439]

@@ImSomebady YOOOOOOOO I didnt think about this! I'm about to go try this right now! Thank you!

[@VulgarBearSteak]

Really struggling with the midscreen OTG combo route. Almost every time the fireball will just whiff unless I delay the 2b>6c greatly, and in that case the j.bc lands but the final a always whiffs. Any tips for that one?

[@raidhyn]

Yeah. Keep messing with timing and do each part separately. It takes a while. Honestly the hardest combo in this whole video and I still have trouble with it. For the j.bca that part is faster than you think it is. Think of it as squeezing in the j.a where it doesn't belong before you hit the ground. The timing is pretty quick.

[@VulgarBearSteak]

@@raidhyn I've been wood-shedding it since I left the comment and I'm getting it a decent amount of the time. Thanks a ton for the help. It seems that getting the really deep dash was the most crucial for landing the final part of the combo

[@raidhyn]

@@VulgarBearSteak woo progress! Once you get a feel for it it's definitely much easier to do. That dash window is tight. One thing you can do if you don't get a deep dash but land 5c at the tip you can jump and do j.b air tatsu which will still connect and give you corner carry, just less damage. Useful if that dash isn't deep enough.

[@RayJesusRay]

Nice video :) i have a problem hitting the dash 2c. any tips?

[@raidhyn]

All of Akatsuki's Dashes are links, not cancels. If you're not getting the dash you're likely inputting it too early. The window for it is very very small but gets more comfortable with time. For me I wait to input the dash as the animation for 6c is ending and he is drawing his fist back after the uppercut. Hope that helps and good luck!

[@123armyoftwo]

Its reallt hard getting that short dash idk how to do it

[@relaxedayax437]

In the combo at 2:30, is the 2c after the 66b a link or a chain?

[@raidhyn]

It's a link.

[@blank3457]

excellent

[@datafogao]

thanks

[@Neo-wc4zg]

how do you do the dash after 6c cannot get the 2c to land

[@GonFreeccs123]

Awesome video! Quick question, whenever I go for 6c>214b I miss the first hit of the armor pierce kick, is that a problem with my spacing or with my timing for the link?

[@ITNoetic]

Try that string out in one of the mission mode combos. You can watch the CPU do it. There's a delay in some of the moves you need to do. Basically, stretch your combo out a little longer when juggling, and they'll be lower when you do 214B, so all 3 hits will connect.

[@Matislavio]

I have no idea, how do you use dash 2c after 6c? I can do 6c > 2c no problem, but when I'm trying to dash I'm always too late due to the animation lock after 6c

[@raidhyn]

You don't need the full animation of the dash distance, just enough of the dash startup to get you close. Micro dash it.

[@ImSomebady]

Remember to buffer the dash with the 66 input as the 6c animation is ending (Akatsuki moves his arm down on the top of the uppercut)

[@Matislavio]

@@ImSomebady Omg... I was waiting for the animation to finish. Don't know where that came from (most prolly some other game) but I thought you can't buffer the dash input... That might be THE thing to get the dash combos doable for me, not only on Tsuki! Thanks a lot!

[@utopiacatshark12]

i feel as though most of these combos are not beginners friendly

[@zezimahunter1]

the end combo is just a variation on one of the advanced end combos just practice 4-6 in mission and remember to time 236b | b and 2c>2b | 5c when | indicates a delay/timing

[@norush9568]

struggling to buffer the dash in the day 1 combo lol. 6c > dash 2c > 6c > 214b. my 2c always come out too slow

[@raidhyn]

Just input the dash and then attack immediately after. Don't wait for the dash to come to an end. You just want the first few frames of the dash to come out to make the 2C more consistent regardless of initial spacing.

[@norush9568]

@@raidhyn Thank you! I was kind of wondering about the dash length. The UNIST community is helpful as fuck.

It’s already giving me a headache at 14 seconds in...I’m not good with technical terms! Just say stuff like ⬇️↘️➡️ triangle and neutral circle! I get that you wrote it that way for the sake of abbreviation, but THAT DOESN’T FUCKING HELP FOR NEWBIES LIKE ME! This is exactly the kind of shit that makes fighting games feel unfriendly and near-insurmountable to newcomers like me! I get the idea of special directional inputs like quarter/half-circle forward and the “shoryuken” input (➡️⬇️↘️) because of Terry Bogard getting into Smash, but still! Firing off so much technical terminology at once without explaining it doesn’t help! If I have to repeatedly pause the video to figure out what the fuck you’ve written, then something’s clearly wrong!
