(Ver. 1.4.0) Kouma Basics & Combos Guide | MELTY BLOOD: TYPE LUMINA

(THE ADDITIONAL NOTATION IS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE DESCRIPTION)
Hi everyone, the Kouma guide is finally here. I got a new laptop a few months ago and also started using some new video editing software. I think it came out great, and my new laptop made the editing process so much better! I hope you guys enjoy the new and improved video quality!
If you'd like, come by and check me out on Twitch!

Oh my gosh this is great. Ive gotten bored with strive and have been messing with Melty. Have been trying to find good resources for Kouma and Akiha. Thank you!

[@PAARRAN0lA]

doing the same thing now lol

[@BoomerangKuwanger12]

Hi everyone! I had to reupload the video to fix some things as well as add some combos that were missing. As always, there are more Kouma resources in the description once you're ready to go deeper than what this guide provides, one of which has a bunch of post-patch combos! Hope you enjoy!

[@HER0333]

Is this guide still relevant in the latest update? Also amazing work please keep making

[@BoomerangKuwanger12]

@@HER0333 Yes, it's still relevant! In the latest patch Kouma only got one change to his EX DP, but everything else is the same 👍

Wow man this is an amazing in depth guide im subscribing please make more content like this 🙏 👏

[@hoangquan4506]

for the 4-bar combo, if you only do 1 hit of the second rekka, you can do full 236C, netting you more damage

[@authisticbread7292]

Kouma is like the guy who works at a 9 11 job

[@kls389]

Good tips thx

[@kurokaen1234]

Is this version still valid to this day? Like were there any changes that we have to know?

[@BoomerangKuwanger12]

The only change Kouma got in the May 31 update was a range increase to the first hit 623C. Other than the's pretty much the same 👍
