The best part of these combos is trying to do anything of this online with 10f of delay.

[@prabhasenju5259]

@Marcus Layne oh great, thanks for the recommendation. i'll definitely NOT use it.

[@ori.g4mi]

I'm guessing you already been hit with the "if you think THESE are hard try UNI combos"

[@SuwakoMoriya]

"You are doing Hyde combos If you think THOSE are hard try Vatista combos"

[@harryvpn1462]

Ky's advanced10 combo having like 3 tight microdashes got me suffering

[@freygarr3943]

Same, but Platinum combos in BBCF

[@CalebJF88]

@@freygarr3943 bruh FACTS. took me forever to get used to having 12 microdashes per combo

[@eduardoserpa1682]

@@freygarr3943 True, there's so much microdashing in BBCF. 665B is a meme for a reason.

[@chsi5420]

At least you can buffer them.

[@shiwanmi]

When I finally got Rev2, I was too anxious to hop in lobbies, and there was no one in netplay, so combo trials and missions are practically all I did. Dizzy's were alot of fun (I rarely mess up tk inputs now after those).

[@pl412]

Same here. Ky's and baiken's advanced 10 gave me nightmares, but i really dig sol's and may's trials. Games really fun even single player.

[@shiwanmi]

@@pl412 Lol playing Baiken in general has certainly done things to my wrist that can't be undone. I don't think I did Ky's. I tried in Sign, but I didn't get very far then.

[@kholdkhaos64ray11]

If you think THAT'S hard, try doing that with weighted training cloths in 100x Earth's gravity in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber for over a year

[@bighex5340]

Bruh... Would the added weight be multiplicative in heavier gravity? Like if it was 20 lbs would it be 20000lbs? Sorry, mathlet here

[@SnappySanad]

The last Ky combo oh my god I lost my mind trying to land Sacred Edge 😭

[@pingouuiin]

I would love to see you try Blazblue Centralfiction trials ! Not that they are the hardest but just to see you play BB would make my day 🥰

[@DKUmaro]

Well, the "micro dash" is NOT visible on the left side command display, BUT the sample input during the playback shows the dash input (as 66H).

[@Kurumisama]

If you want to break your stick...go for Izanami trials in Central Fiction

[@angrymeatwad83]

I've recently picked up trying to learn Rev2 in preparation for Strive(I know they won't exactly translate but I need experience period). On top of trying to learn an entirely new game(without a lot of FG experience) I'm also trying to learn stick as I've had one for a few years but never really got around to it. I have chosen Haehyun as my character of choice(possibly not a good choice I've learned haha) and it gives me some much needed sanity seeing even a seasoned gamer like yourself struggling with the timings on these links as I spend hours doing these trials. Thanks for putting out stuff like this, it keeps the old men trying to learn new tricks like me going haha.

[@karue7581]

Some of these trials have crazy stuff in them.

[@TSNMLitoFightingGamesPassion]

I would love to see youu do them all and then grade the character with the hardest combo and 1 character with the hardest trials. Good stuff!!

[@TheObscureBrand]

12:27 Hitstun decay is determined by the duration you are in hitstun, not the number of the combo counter like in most games. By hitting the 5k sooner, you can combo j.S > j.H in time before the histun decay makes it impossible. The intended compensation was to hit the blitz > 66c.S sooner.

[@rRagnaBR]

...but if you want to break your stick AND your fingers, try Naoto Kuragane's in Blazblue Central Fiction.

[@johnalves1083]

"If you think THATS hard......." Man I'm dying LMAO

[@PomadaGaming]

Just now doing sol’s ones. Advanced 10 is actually excruciating. The dash into low HS cr.HS,the delayed fafnir after double jumping D,the damn instant dash gunflame and of course somehow the hardest part with the j.D at the end. Gl with that that’s gonna be a fun part to watch

[@PomadaGaming]

4:38 oh yeah install one 5:41 it starts 6:22 THIS IS WHAT I STARTED DOING but i got this tip late,it’s good 7:17 damn i had most trouble with the jump D afterwards somehow more than the dash gunflame,and ya got it casually i had to do a shortcut lol. Good stuff 7:49 i know right 19:32 that sucks

[@TehDompie]

I know different people find different aspects of combos difficult. For me I think the hardest combo trials are BB CF, some of them just destroy the hands lol

[@babafgc3795]

Potemkin trial 8 kills me. I’m gonna keep on trying till I get that one right.

[@saadhasan2518]

Kof 13 and BBCF have my favourite trials hard af but rewarding once you pull off that insanely hard combo

[@esxivy1944]

Is cool that you are uploading content now. I just found you thanks tl the kof combos video I am new to the fighting games and my friend and i picked this game and omg, advanced combos kill me everytime xD Love your work man ~

[@vdb492]

What game is?

[@badsketch9264]

As a relative newb to fighting games (yes, I am one of the DBFZ sheep that actually stayed with the genre) this video is one of the many examples that make me secretly happy that STRIVE is being 'toned down'.

[@dantemzsz]

I'm also one of those sheeps, but i'm a little bit sad that Strive is being 'toned down', i love hard combos, still i'm gonna play it

[@kholdkhaos64ray11]

Well if it makes you feel better, there are way simpler and easier combos to do in Xrd to get decent damage and a knockdown if you wanted to learn them. Some Xrd (well Classic Guilty Gear in general) links like Sol's Dustloop are still in Strive anyway because its legacy and popularity.

[@GG256_]

Seriously, fundamentals and reads in these games make and break matches. It's harder to gauge how well your fundamentals are in DBFZ because of snap super dash and vanish, also it's a tag game with way unbalanced assists, but you should be fine.

[@ImMcSparky]

It's just insane to watch and I love it

[@iconuchiha16]

my dpad broke doing these trials and now I can't play fighting games

[@RyanEdwardNason]

Wish strive had combos

[@granddaddy_funk]

These combos feel like dbfz combos but they are much tighter. Then again I play ginyu so I might be biased. Btw the forward dust combos are always the hardest for me.

[@SpooksRule921]

I drop pretty much anything I’m doing to watch jm play gg

[@BlueRuki]

I would love to see a jmcrocts under night trial stream/video

[@LawPoppy]

i know this old but is that Goldlewis concept in the back

[@jdbzchulo2244]

I remember when you did sol badguy’s and axl low’s trials in ggxrd rev 2

[@YourDaddysBelt69]

"Are Guilty Gear Xrd's combo trials really EVEN HARDER than KoF13???" No.

[@JohnGaming55]

I’d say they are.

[@strategist9]

The only real combo trials I can do for the most part are the FighterZ ones....but most of those are easy. Do an auto-combo! Do one special! Do one super! Mash auto-combo after super dash! FighterZ is pretty lenient in comparison to most other combo trials but even so, my fingers just can't move fast enough sometimes.

[@Ireonox]

Now, im not gonna say im good at fighting games in general, but i have to say, merkava's combo trial in bbtag was one of the most difficult thing id ever done.

[@rubiconcrossing4480]

It seems that GG has a bunch of links and KOF has a bunch of motions and charges

[@redhatter1682]

Comments are good for the KZbin algorithm.

[@donutwashington4783]

[@kratos2112]

Wow if you think THAT'S hard you should try Divekick combos

[@gammafgc4058]

As a venom main id like to see you atempt his trials

[@koalabare6969]

axl command throw looks so sick

[@Aripuni1]

If you want hardcore combo try Blazblue Central Fiction, and if you want to become athrithis choose Naoto kuragane (combination of Ragna and Rock Howard), I am not even kidding

[@NBSilentShadow]

IMO BlazBlue and UNI have the hardest combo trials of modern fighting games. But all these I can manage just fine, I can do them if I practice enough. There is one game though, that I consider to be the hardest of them all: Fate/Unlimited Codes. I just can't do those combos to save my life 😅

[@lellis4778]

these are really fun to watch

[@ReddAngry]

I have a feeling this channel is going to morph into a combo speedrunning kind of thing

[@NarcoticDimension]

I don't think they are as hard as kof13...

[@robloxfan3149]

If you think this is hard then you haven’t done Mario kart 8 rainbow road 200cc blindfolded

u should do naoto arthritis kurogane from bbcf

[@SSGSSTahmid]

Honestly so why is this formula being dropped i like how flashy it look even though i havent played it with strive's graphics it couldve been a bigger hit imo Dbfz player btw

[@Bloodhurl67]

Can you elaborate?

[@jrk5190]

Are these combos optimal?

[@GG256_]

Nope. There usually arent many optimals in the tutorials. GG is made with being over the top in mind. The skill ceiling for optimal combos in GG is insane. I've been mixed online in different ways almost every match. Lol compared to DBFZ where everyone has literal the same 2m double juggle air combo into super it's actually ludicrous. GG is all about being over the top.

[@jrk5190]

@@GG256_ Thanks man.

[@NeoBoneGirl]

Not really. They’re better than nothing, but there are usually better combos you can do. These are just here to give you ideas of what combo pieces are actually possible so that you can think up combos on your own

[@jrk5190]

@@NeoBoneGirl Do the optimal combos do a lot more damage?

[@NeoBoneGirl]

@@jrk5190 Depends on which trial it is, as it varies from char to char. For example, Sin’s combo trials include pretty much all of his BnBs, but Axl’s has the “full Sparrowhawk > RC > Sparrowhawk” combo that no one on earth would ever use because it does no damage for half your meter. I’d check the character discords for Xrd to find the optimal combos for your character if you wanna know more

[@mrbaaman]

How original

Try dizzys combos they are tricky

[@jays.6843]

They are about ten times harder than they look. A lot of the harder ones require like, three air dashes with about five frames of give. They'll make you want to rip your hair out.
