Sooooo possible scrub question.... what’s with the 5H I see people do when descending. Does it help you fall/land quicker?

It seems to catch an extra hit in the corner sometimes, but I see people do it midscreen too, when there’s no chance of connecting....

This one is one way to open your opponent. It's an OH. You can actually combo off it, but if you want to do a longer combo, such as ToD, better don't do it as for some reason it limits the combo longevity, for forces the AI to quickly recover double than before.

They do it in midscreen to hit the other side and open their opponent up. Sonicfox does it, too.

Ive been noticing that too. I can see Goku Black cuz that shit actually hits lol But everybody else....i dunno. The only logical thing would be to build extra meter.

Hes talking about throwing out wiffed air normals while youre falling after hkd. Not attacks that will connect.

I always though it was a meter thing. Kinda like adding multiple gas blast wiffs with kabal in mk9

Exactly! Do whiffed attacks build meter then? Good to know if so!

Mostly so that they don't get Dragon Rush instead of Super.

This actually makes a bunch of sense too, nice one :)

Lol - tbf, on rereading I might have phrased my question poorly, sorry :)

But yes, I mean the whiffed normals after HKD on descent.

It's all so very confusing.
As mentioned, it's to prevent getting DR instead of super when you land. By doing it semi close to the ground you recover a little faster. It cancels landing frames or something to that effect. If you try to super to soon on landing you get a DR, but landing a lv1 off extended splats can be a little tight and this prevents that happening. I use it every time now.

It's always done off a splat, where it can't connect in any way. If it's done off a normal combo and not a splat then they are using it to either change fall trajectory, or tech trap. Black for instance has a setup (I don't know how it works, just seen it before) where after certain air combos that end with a god slicer, he does anothwr god slicer and times a 2h as be falls and depending on how it's times he lands in front or behind the opponent. It's not 'real' in that they have recovered and such, but the camera sticks with black when this is happening and the result is when he lands there isn't a ton of time to see which side he's on before the action starts again. But it is reactable.

So.

Kid Black Vegeta is.. it's.. it's just so goddamn satisfying. Fuck it boys, I'm a top tier scrub. I mean, I always have been in this game.. but it feels good to embrace it.

I'ma just run with it. If they balance some shit later I'll just re-assess if something is destroyed.

Vegeta is so clean.

I know right! I feel like Vegeta is my best solo char. I really like the way he plays... options e’rywhere. Always been my dude in the anime too, so glad one of his variants is strong. Wish there were other top tier assists though, so he wasn’t on so many teams.

I feel like anyone supported by Vegeta/KBuu can be devastating, so much mix to hold while the assist keep you locked down.

Down the line i might rock team “Tiers for fears” same team as yours but with Cell instead of Black. They’re pure filth in the lab, but still focusing on my main team Nappa>Frieza>Vegeta for now, with a sprinkling of Broly>Trunks>Vegeta to keep things varied

I think it’s to help with oki/meaty timing. It also does occasionally hit them while they’re falling as well. But not 100% sure. It kinda feels like Go1 and some others started doing it, then everyone else started doing it as well. I’m almost positive it’s a timing thing. But if it builds a little meter that could be why too.

Breh, once they drop, gonna go back hard in this game like I did the first month. Really a shame Dabura isn’t gonna make the roster, but Vegito and 17 were on my wishlist as well, can’t wait!

Tbh 17 and Cooler could have just been skins for 18 and Frieza. Wish Dabura or Janemba were DLC. But still gonna play 17.

Weird. I've never gotten DR while trying to super in this situation. This at least explains how the input prevents it, cuz i was like "how would that make DR not come out anyway?"

Oh well. None issue tbh
