Stack's VS2/VT2 Akuma Guide

[@DemonicCollusion]

EVERY Monday, you say? Just follow the link to the STBX Discord in the description to join the Team Battles, and it costs nothing to participate?? How convenient and accessible to all! Fantastic guide, dude. I'm addicted to VT1, so maybe this'll get me going.

[@xtnctr]

Most inspiring player. Most inspiring setup.

[@xtnctr]

I feel the Vt2 side of the force pulling me back to it once more.

[@helverus]

Finally! Thanks for the great video, as always. Instant like

[@jpmadison98]

Dude, your guides are next level. Not only are they useful, but also really entertaining. Keep it up.

[@burgercheezes]

Love how it’s always knowledgeable and entertaining.

[@DemonDan14]

Great job on this man...great guide

[@RushG]

Excellent video Stack, lots of great information on show here

[@AsdfAsdf-mh4zc]

Very nice

[@helverus]

8:44 Nice, now I will never screw this up, it'll be just part of the setup lol

[@exiaphoid2127]

thanks for the vid stack! very well made and informative :D

[@ethermay]

Stack you are the best man. Love your content. 😍

[@createprince2093]

you're a gem dude, thank you so much for making this awesome guide. love watching your akuma, vs2/vt2 or otherwise something I've seen some other guides doing lately is playing each combo twice, with either the first or second play being slowmo, and that helps a lot with my slow brain. could be something to try later if/when you make more guides!

[@StackBradford]

Ill see what I can do about that. In the mean time, the playback speed function KZbin has is pretty good!

[@createprince2093]

@@StackBradford totally, so are the skip back and forward shortcut keys. thanks man, kickass guide here

[@antonsundin2974]

You can do vs2 > vs 2 red > m tatsu. It requires you to slightly delay before you do the tatsu and it wont work if you're too very far away. But you do get proper oki from this meterless version.

[@doumanseiman2645]

that dp bait looks so cool

[@neilg5579]

Last weeks team fight was so hype

[@wentworthmiller1890]

Subbed!

[@SenorAbram]

Vt2/vs2 Akuma gang rise 🔥

[@sebasmart6703]

Would love to see one of these for vs1 and vt1

[@xtnctr]

Vt1 sk1 🤮

[@SenorAbram]

Watch literally any other Akuma then lmao. All anyone ever uses is vt1/vs1. Stack is the only other Akuma I’ve seen use vt2/vs2. This variation is much more fun and creative imo

[@StackBradford]

There are quite a few of those!

[@gameclips5734]

Nice video. One other combo i don't think i've seen you use after cr. hp CC is b. HP -> VS2 -> VS2 fb -> mk tatsu -> ex dp

[@StackBradford]

I thought the scaling of this would make it weaker than the option shown, but you're exactly right! That is the better option.

[@pommedemer1922]

Wym at 1:12?

[@StackBradford]

The health part? It takes a lot more damage to build a V Trigger that requires 3 bars than it does a V Trigger that requires 2.

[@pommedemer1922]

@@StackBradford makes sense

[@stilmaho]

What about VS2 VT1 combo? Is there anything that is worth mentioning specific to it?

[@kyo9111]

Hi bro 7:37 not working for me why

[@StackBradford]

what part? if youre talking about the vs2 -> red fireball, you have to hold the vs for just a moment

[@EleventhFloorBelfry]

Holy crap is that Ys music? Nice

[@StackBradford]

im always impressed that i can look in the comment section and theres always someone who can identify the music no matter what i put on

[@Zrakion]

I don't know, I guess I am too much pulled by the kara cancel demon. Although being able to hit one of them is bit difficult at higher ranks, but the feeling when it hits and kills is just too exciting. Also, Stack, just a request: Could you make a video on how to effectively use Akuma's skill set in a neutral gameplay. What pokes to use and what not to. I have learned a lot from watching your videos and your comebacks on those tough ones, but I feel lost when I try to do it. And often times than not, I just can't seem to be able to use Akuma's skill set to make the opponent guessing. Is there any tips you'd like to share? Like why you use certain pokes instead of others or in which situation you use them and such? It would be really helpful. Thanks and keep these videos coming.

[@StackBradford]

What kara demon are you referring to?

[@Zrakion]

@@StackBradford kara cancel demon as in cancelling any normal move into raging demon.

[@ntwrk56]

Stack sensei, I can never get a back fierce after a fireball, what am I doing wrong?

[@StackBradford]

Lp red fireball -> b hp only works on big box characters. Blanka Abigail gief birdie etc

[@devilish2345]

V skill 2 is definitely better even though it's only 2 bars it's so much better for getting in some high damage combos I got a good 4 off of 1 V2 bar and it's like yeah I could get a raging demon for a flat 400 damage but why when I can get a total of 786 damage off of a few combos with out even using meter just special cancels so dark hadoken into dragon into taksumaki air fire ball or just takeumaki saflve the meter for one more then if I'm quick enough a overhead slam into dragon into taksumaki and finish with air fire ball,I was playing against a bison player who spams the ill tear you apart teleport kick bs move however the demon warp cancel into dragon or fireball cancle into dragon combo and then taksu great damage

8:20 - Hahaha

[@BAM.33]

The dislike is who got hit by the ex DP setup

[@nunchucknick9794]

I want to physically fight the person that disliked this video

[@ShinkuGouki]
