DMC5 Taking Notes: EP. 3 - Combo Structuring

[@RisingJericho]

To believe it only took us nearly 2 decades to get a real practice mode for this series in the mainline games

[@sleek462]

Right i wish we could add multiple enemies vs just practicing against one but we cant have it all i guess

[@darkdestructer]

I understand why tho. every enemy has armor properties and a stagger meter, some cant be launched until your stagger is full. definetely hard to get good at this game in a training room, yet it is good for starting to learn your first steps. but what does it give you being able to jc on an afk enemy but cant do it in combat. I actually prefer bloody palace to practice, especially goliath once u beaten stage20. he has an insane hitbox so definetely your best bet to practice stuff like this. in dmc4 Belial was your punching bag so..

[@cumekira70]

mainline?

[@jonnysac77]

It's also for the DMC game that needs it the least

[@jonnysac77]

Kira DmC: Devil may Cry had it but it was super basic, litearally just a white void with one invincible enemy in it

[@MixWeapon]

Damn man, I hope you have a list of projects you wanna do with DMC5. Your DMC content is the content I am really looking out for since you got the best tutorials out there. Anyway, love the video! Keep it up.

[@zeruszephuros5419]

Hardest part for me: being imaginative and testing out what links with what (the possibility is just endless...and I keep forgetting them or just simply can't get the timing right :/")

[@jonnybravo595]

u will get there buddy

[@Dylankiwi1]

really love how you use Nero, how you try not repeat moves but experiment with them

[@magicalhermitcrab5912]

DMC5 is the first game in the series I find I really want to be great at, so I've been looking up a lot of tutorials. Gotta say, I find yours the best. You don't ramble, your advice is clear, and the gameplay illustrates exactly what you're talking about. Followed on twitter/twitch, keep up the good work!

[@bii_gii]

I WISH YOU CONTINUED THIS IM FINALLY HAVING SOME IMAGINATION FOR DAMN SAKE AAHHHHHH

[@chucktownattack]

Wow you are an excellent player. Anyone can be flashy but this shit is straight up logical.

[@frantz816]

I took too many notes

[@Pr0v0kat0r777]

This is just what I was hoping you will make, simple steps for silly people like me. Sometimes knowledge about making a brick can help to build a house. I hope you will make more videos like this! This saves so much time, thank you, and pardon for my English

[@Panter8113]

Great to see you adding voice over comments! Big fan and I learned and improved a lot!

[@soakthemilkman]

You are truly awesome. Almost as creative as donguri, but very humble and willing to teach. These videos are the best I've ever seen for any character action game ever.

[@chrisg5219]

Hey this series is what I've desperately needed man! The videos are of very high quality too. I never understood jump canceling or interrupting built in combos. I always just did advanced button mashing as I call it, randomly picking moves one after another. Now I feel like I can really start to come to grips with the formerly unfathomable depths of dmc combat.

[@josephbell9409]

Best tutorials ive ever seen keep it up looking foward to when u coming back after ur break

[@helioknight9570]

Can't wait for the Devil Sword Dante tutorial.

[@rami0brisingr]

that tekken tag tournament 2 customization music

[@tc759]

Nice tutorial gonna wait for next part been following you since DMC4 tutorial :)

[@nagisashiota6110]

Best DMC content on yt honestly

[@MillzDMC]

Ayyyyyyy

[@thecrimsonpugilist]

Great intro music. Instant nostalgia. Spent hours in TTT2 customization mode listening to that song

[@Jestah]

Almost 10k subs, good stuff with the tutorials

[@ShortyInBlue]

Nice video! I'm really new to this type of game genre and while playing it just blew my mind how many different things you can actually do with the combos and stuff, haha.

[@furious_malic7808]

Congrats on 9 thousand subs chaser! Good stuff

[@BrilliantSunsGaming]

Another great video man! I am loving these tutorials! Makes me want to pick up the game again and just practice!

[@Dext3rM0rg4n]

Your DMC5 tutorial are really good, hope you'll make more someday.

[@imagine9283]

Love these

[@МаринаМаринэ-б5е]

Can't wait for advanced tutorial, love watching these. Though DMC5 is much easier to combo than 4.

[@havelinaaa5053]

Cause the Jump Cancelling actually works more often...for me anyways :/

[@jonnysac77]

@@havelinaaa5053 it's because the enemy hitboxes are bigger, DMC4 had a lot of tiny enemy hit boxes

[@havelinaaa5053]

@@jonnysac77 It definitely feels like it when I'm messing with the beefy scarecrow

[@jonnysac77]

@@havelinaaa5053 it takes a while to get a feel for it and I'm still not used to the mega scarecrow hitboxes after well over 100 hours of gameplay

That tekken background music is so relaxing

[@notthebest3668]

Been waiting for this

[@grassroots15]

Didn't expect to hear TvC music today, gg

[@annedrop]

Nice song. Thank you so much for these videos 🥂

[@elpibedealado]

Very good series for new players. Keep it up

[@Dagslol]

coolest combo i've seen, keep it up man great content and super clear explanation edit : whats your button layout btw?

[@iDSTnikeSB]

Yooooooo that ttt2 soundtrack tho!

[@zeruszephuros5419]

A newb like me still comboing in DMC games like spamming them Dx" (can't get creative or even remember what moves to do next to each one that is efficient and goes along well with one another)

[@anthonyneptune6001]

I love these videos. Incredibly well thought out and presented. One request if I may: How to do reverse splits, streaks, etc... Can't figure it out at all lol. Thank you regardless.

[@HareHeadGFX]

You can reverse streaks but nothing else since it was removed.

[@DVLtrigger]

Input a moves directional input and then quickly hold the direction you want to use the move in. Unlock and then press the attack or style input as soon as possible. Dont be surprised if you dont hit it on the first try, its incredibly tight

[@MenosLink]

funny how you make this combo tutorial and accidentally make a fighting game tutorial as well lol. all these concepts could be used in them as well. good tutorial

[@wikthedik4065]

DMC overall feels like a single player fighting game

[@Naarii528]

@@wikthedik4065 makes sense considering itsuno first worked on Street fighter 2 and Alpha.

[@notso_usualyoutbuer]

Dude i love your videos, like do you working as teacher somewhere? Because only your teaching videos a lot better neither other guys videos, for 100% Anyway thank's a lot for your videos, i'm already can do JCing now i will practice a lot with combo moves

[@cKorn027]

Was curious about the song that was playing in the beginning (suddenly remembered it was from TTT2) and noticed that your control layout was similar to mine; but I'll try out your layout, feel it out to see the difference 👍

[@Qbone_]

great vid love dmc5

[@joelwoodford5737]

Where is episode 4? Love this series so far

[@enanodetrespiernaszapaton7003]

INTERESANTE EL VIDEO , GRACIAS POR EL TUTORIAL

[@nichapol_soma]

Maybe you can "Knock Cancel" with devil bringer puch at the end of combo.. *smile*

[@wartitan46]

I’ve been waiting for the third part I also have a question , do you hold square with your thumb ? Cause i tried to hold it with my thumb and do the combo with my thumb too . It was hard but i managed to do it after 4 hours

[@ChaserTech]

Yes I do. I've been playing with Nero using default controls in DMC4 for years. Personally I don't recommend it since it can get tiring and annoying. But I've gotten so used to it that I can't play Nero any other way.

[@wartitan46]

Well , after i managed to do it i tried to switch the firing button to L1 but it really screwed everything i couldn’t do the combo you did in your dante and nero gameplay vid until i switched back . Thx for answering btw

[@SoysauceML]

@@wartitan46 Dante usually doesn't really need to hold the gun button, so you can keep Dante on default but put gun on somewhere else for Nero.

[@wartitan46]

I switched for both cause i tried to hold enemies in the air using dr.faust , but it screwed me for both dante and nero so i switched back . As for V he’s shit so i don’t use him at all

[@SoysauceML]

@@wartitan46 There's no reason to adjust a character's control for another player's benefit. You're playing two complete different characters with different mechanics, no use trying to make two controls one.

[@sleek462]

How did you do that coyote to pistol stun @ 4:46 ? Nice series btw +1

[@nghianguyen-cz7cd]

Need more of these

[@nghianguyen-cz7cd]

Btw great vid

[@SpiritLegion]

Fantastic

[@legendarydigitize2523]

Here are my easy to do bread and butter combos for Cavalier and Dual Kalina Anns Trickster to Air trick Then Highside Then Braking The Idling Then Slipstream Then Wheelie Jump Then Air Cavalier Combo B for the first 2 inputs Then Air Cavalier Combo A, then after the 2nd input of latter air combo, finish it off with the 3rd hit of Air Cavalier Combo B Then go Trickster and Groun Trick until close enough Then Cavalier Combo B until 2nd hit Then Cavalier combo A Finish with either the final hit of A or B Then go Gunslinger and use Multiple Twins, then Mega Cascade Then Ground Trick enough until at a good enough distance for Full Throttle to reach Use it, then use Full Throttle in Swordmaster Then go Gunslinger and use Hysteric Twins

[@kraskel1017]

Really enjoy the way you explain things. I am getting better after watching you and others, and practicing. The void is good and all, but I am finding the "warm up" option from BP much more enjoyable and realistic. Practicing on floors with a high enemy count really makes a difference. You are rarely in a 1v1 situation and locking on has been my biggest hurdle to adjust to but these fight are helping. - maybe any pointers on that? I'm finding a bit of flow with just pressing lock for a few moments to input directions and swing and unlock to have more control over my next attack when crowded instead of staying on the one I may have (likely) knocked away. But I'm still struggling at times. - and ex act PLUS knuckles is damn near impossible for me except on the long animations. Seen some crazy dmg output hitting every swing with a knuckle. Rediculous.

[@BubaMax]

Is that Tekken music I hear?

[@iDSTnikeSB]

It is my good sir. It is

[@CeberusNora]

I’m getting tired of you and these good ass song choices. Great video btw.

[@BrentDominic]

I know you're stopping this series, but may I just ask if starting off with 4 weapons with dante better? Im just afraid that if i only get used to 2-3 weapons, i won't be able to learn to be efficient with more weapons. For example, the muscle memory of how many weapon/gun switches etc. hope you can reply and hope you're doing well!

[@ChaserTech]

If you want to use 4 weapons and guns then I say go for it. If it's too hard to get used to then I suggest sticking to 2 or 3 weapons until you're proficient at it. For me I'm just not used to switching through 4 weapons. Plus I'm comfortable with my load out lol Also I hope you're doing well too!

[@BrentDominic]

ChaserTech thank you for the fast reply! Will try to catch your streams when i can. :D

[@phant0mdummy]

Maybe a dumb question, but is it cool to use a minimal kit with Dante to learn him? Just wondering if equipping sword and pistols only and then slowly adding to that would be beneficial to learn him, or if it would limit options and style rating potential ?

[@ChaserTech]

Not a dumb question at all, in fact I kinda went over it in this video here. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qoqUpqSnhbGofJY

[@orochizod]

really nice tutorial. Ive been a follower since your dmc4 gameplays. Just wondering if you are going to upload BP playthroughs and DMD no dmg runs. Also wondering why you dont use Dantes Bike?

[@ChaserTech]

I'll eventually work on some BP runs. I've been busy with making these tutorial series so I haven't had time to work on anything else. As for Cavaliere, I simply dont like using it.

[@orochizod]

@@ChaserTech Oh ok but it kinda feels like something is missing tho. Anyway looking forward to the next notes.

[@KaiKrimson56]

@@ChaserTech I don't blame you. It is slow and awkward to use.

Great one man. GBG is doing a series of combo teaching too, you should check it out!

[@sabermaster2761]

Combos are so confusing but I have been only playing the game for a week, so that's normal but I want to improve in fights, I button mash a combo over im not going to improve at all.

[@overtonmcdowell215]

The problem for me is mainly finger position I'm just not quick when it comes to jcing into another move

[@thessbest123]

That just takes practice, its easy when you ger used to it.

[@JoordyDreaming]

So I've played alot Of Devil may cry , But i never got into the detailed Mechanics of the games, this is why i always ended Never getting past certain parts Of difficultie cus i could deal enough damage and keep my Style up while Taking Minimal amounts of damage. even doh i played through DMC 1 through 5 , Put alot of time in 3 and 4 I was always at a lack of Physicaly Grasping the core machanics of the game. To which my main thought still is How do i deal more damage. Now i want to be able to Preform better and take less damage and JCing seems to be one of the key features in it. But it still feels hard to comftorably Move between moves and styles to make a good chain. I know From a fact that i am a button masher and i cant time anything at all especially under pressure Of the gameplay. How did you learn to become calm and collective when preforming combo's ect. bit of a long and wierd comment maybe sorry about that. but this is the first time i'm actually trying to sit down watch videos and Practice DMC. but i'm already getting stressed out by how much info there is and its makes me anxious. love the DMC Games but want to be able to play more then just normal mode.

[@Shadic1223]

How exactly do you do reversed backslide? I can't seem to figure it out for the life of me

[@DVLtrigger]

Position yourself in a way that youre facing away from the enemy, like unlock + faceaway attack, then relock and backslide. You still input backslide with the analog away from the enemy

[@oni4039]

I dont understand the input in 4:51

[@Daedron12]

Revolver -> JC -> Air Taunt -> Style (trickster) -> Air taunt
