OOOOOOH that robot Flash costume was a design made by square enix I just posted that to post it. The second one is Flash from DC Universe Online in a alternate timeline where more then half of the superheroes died fighting off the villains. Batman made special suits for everyone to be ready for war. That is my favorite Flash suit of all time.

Same here I even named my guy LightningFlash, but I hate how they treat The Flash now.

Hey guys, IDK if this a noob question, but when you using my fight stick I'm noticing when I go down I have a tendency to go diagonal. I'm still landing the combos, but will this be a problem for me?

 

[AK Harold]

if not on alternate controls d1 will give you a special move sometimes on stick if you are not careful

No alternate controls just the standard MK controls. I should of put that in my question my bad.

I want to say thank you to Zyphox and Honey Bee for an outstanding performance at ECT. You guys put in lots of dedication and hard work that really shows. So with that being said, I have realized my true character. So on this day, I am proud to say, I am joining the Flash army.

 

[AK Harold]

Yeah grats to both @Zyphox and @HoneyBee for showing people why they should be afraid of this character. I didn't have a chance to watch but looking forward to footage if any gets released. Awesome job.

Can someone explain how to cancel RMS? I mean I DO cancel it but it feels like the cancel is late and I could cancel it sooner. Also, @Zyphox and @HoneyBee what are the inputs for the standing reset involving RMS during the "jim chant combos?"

Not sure how to tell you how to do RMS cancels besides saying you gotta practice them. The standing reset I believe you're talking about doesn't involve RMS. It's D1D2 ~ LK MB ~ Trait ~ LKx4 ~ D2 ~ 32

Yeah that's the one I'm currently using but I've seen one with RMS 2? I believe the ground pound placed flash behind the opponent as his elbow re-stands his opponent.

What is the trick to get his lightning charge to place him into the corner after his corner bnb? I can't seem to get it consistently. Also I'm having a problem where flash does speed dodge everytime I try to dash up for a d1,2. Anyone else having this problem?

The torpedo into the corner is based on the height you do it at. You have to go under them so it has to be while they are still being juggled high. When you hit it you are starting the combo a few frames earlier. Everything with Flash bnbs can be judged by height. Keep an eye on their height in the air while you do it and see what happens each time. This gives you a sense of what will connect when. This is helpful for noticing you'll drop the end of the combo if you started too late or something so you can cut it off early.

The speed dodge thing is just execution. You are dashing up and pressing down then downback and 1. Downback will count as back so it out puts the move d,b+1. Make sure you are just pressing straight down, this will help with that.

is someone ever gonna put together a massive guide for the flash? or the rest of the roster for that matter?

 

[mfkaoz]

I've always messed around with Flash but now I've decided to take him a bit more seriously so I have a few questions.
How do you know when you're gonna get a crossup f3 setup in the corner? Seems a bit random to me.
What are his frame traps?
All other general tips appreciated. I have all the basics down but I just want to really get the fundamentals of him down.
