Cyrax Round 5 Pluss New Tech explained!!!!

[TONY-T]

That was ridiculous, you always find the most creative combos and ways around the rules. Props to you for dedicating your time to make 5 of these amazing videos.

Thanks Mosp, i really appreciate the feedback

 

[TONY-T]

At long last i can post some of the things i've found lol. Will post in the next few days : D

But tony man i could have waited you didn't have to rush cause of me : (

Either way man, i really don't think there's gonna be a hotfix :s i honestly think it's a rumor or just plain bs...if so im going to have to start playing around with the net reset possibilities, haven't touched them net resets since tom brady said there would be a hotfix...

Im keen to see your tech man! I left out the f+2 stuff, i didnt want to be greedy with all the tech lol. I mean after all you found it too


I freaked out bro! beginner sent me a pm saying he had found new resets and new combo and then i saw you say you were about to post some stuff. i paniced lol.

Its all good though.

Bust out these bomb traps of yours!

 

[TONY-T]

how could i hate you tony if i love these combos =) i already had some other techs ready just in case net reset got removed, but i believe after nrs staff see this video they will give up trying to change anything they might end up damaging the game core engine, too much programming shit to deal with. pretend this is umk3 if cyrax got you on those bomb resets you were dead except over here you have one or 2 chances to break them =) nrs was smart with the breaking system, so people dont complaint about the 100% dmg combos, props to them, and you cyrax haters if you cant beat them join them, still cyrax is beatable and vulnerable.

This is so far the best combo movie you have made, i learned some new tricks from it, cyrax is the character with the longest and most damaging combos on this game, some people detest them, some people love them, they bring a lot of hype in tourneys, some stay like wtf, this combo will never end? as i said before people from other communities have approached me and had told me they would be buying this game just to play with cyrax and do those beautiful combos and maybe play competitively in a future,

only pro cyrax player i see dont use these combos is mustard, there is art on them mustard the crowd love them, i'm still waiting fo that day that you do a 70% dmg on foxy grandpa he is always on your side and believe you are the best because you dont do resets, nonsense!!! he is just afraid that one day you do one of these on him lol, foxy say they are not supposed to be in the game, guess what anything you find in a game supposedly was already in it. i'm cool with you foxy but still i want mustard to do these, i don't need them to win either no cyrax really do, his dmg is good as it is, still this makes him unique and artistic with the must beautiful combos in the game, good stuff tony, good night

Im so glad your cool with it bro. Also really happy you liked it! Thanks for the feedback man

 

[TONY-T]

great stuff tony. just by watching this video i can already tell there will be a round 6.

thanks for the credits. you could of used sheeva for my air net trap, which beats the armor frame/jump frame.

Thanks Check! Getting positive feedback from you means alot! You are the true MK Combo master!

 

[mingzang]

Awesome video ! But when will we see your Sektor combo video ?

 

[TONY-T]

Awesome video ! But when will we see your Sektor combo video ?

Im leaving for thailand in about a week or so. I was planning to train up on sektor when i got back. as it stands though i havent even touched him yet. i dont even know his moves lol. i can learn him in a day, but if i really want to "know" him the way i want to know him its going to take atleast a months training. hopefully early in the new year ill have a vid up for him

Yes, only you did me some technical pitfalls ahead. LOL

great stuff tony. just by watching this video i can already tell there will be a round 6.

Round 6 will be most likely in conjunction with Tony T recorded with new ideas and traps, and would look as a video guide

Help from the cyrax pro himself??

ok i really dont wanna sound stupid but i rlly do have a hard time getting out some of cyrax's bombs for resets,,sometimes they fall as if there are no rules to limiting them but more-often-than-not i struggle with "Bending the rules" as u say with being able to send out for instance 2 close range or 2 mediums in a reset set-up. any i figured who better to ask then all of the players that study cyrax! plz,,feedback would be very much appreciated!


BTW:: ur video,,,fkn RAW

 

[zzzaxxx]

NICE MAN!! WORTH WATCHING EVERY SECONDS OF IT!!
I CHANGED YOUR COMBO 95% TO THIS! SEE IF YOU LIKED IT! BTW DUN GET MAD I MENTIONED THAT I TOOK THE IDEA FROM YOU! AND PLUS, I DUN HAVE MUCH VIEWERS!

Best viewed at 720p



One of the main new techs i found has to do with the dissolving net bomb trap that check4900 found.

In checks version he starts the combo from the ground, nets them in the air, teleports to the other side, does a close bomb, then proceeds with a 2,2, into combo as they fall from the net.

This method works well as long as your opponent is caught high up in the air with the net. Though its still pretty hard to make work because your opponent can jump out of the way if the net is done to low, they can also EXattack out of it no matter how high they are caught in the net.

What ive found however is that if you start the combo with an anti air move such as u+2, d+1 etc. The wakeup properties for them are different once they hit the ground from falling out of the dissolving net.

They cannot jump, they cannot duck, infact they cannot do any directional movement what so ever for atleast a second.

They can however do any regular move upon landing such as jabs or special moves and ofcourse they can block! If they wish to jump out of the way of the bomb they have to tap block first, then jump, or do a jab or special move , then jump out of the way.

Because of this, its actually possible to use throws on them upon landing and its hard for them to get out of it. they have to use an EXattack to escape. This method also allows for a few more damaging combos then normal..



Other new tech.

2 of the same bombs in a combo! yep, it works!

3 bombs in a combo after 1 has already exploded! yep, ive found a way to bend the rules.

a few new bomb traps.

a new reset, credit to maxter.

heaps of new combos, Pluss lots of new ideas that are usefull.

a new 1 bar net reset that does 83%

Some new 100% + combos

new wall combos and setups.



Maxter dont hate me bro, i got to paranoid. Caraecrika and beginner pushed me over the edge lol

Nice. The throw at the end you did a little bit to slow though, they could have ducked it. timing on it has to be prefect. also they can block the sweep at the end.

Thanks.


To get 2 of the same bomb to come out, first it only works after the 1,2,3 string. But when landing that string it must be landed at a medium height. if you land the string to low the second bomb wont come out. hope that helps.

 

[scarsunseen]

The combo at around 3:07...

Can you explain how you get the B2 overhead bomb to reset? As far as I can tell, I do it exactly like you do in your video and it only resets like one out of 10 times. When it doesn't reset, the opponent falls flat on their face. Thanks.

the b+2 must be done as low to the ground as possible. its tricky, but do able.

 

[scarsunseen]

Thanks. That's what I thought. Probably impossible to do online. =\

you R a nice guy man!! yeah i know about the last sweep i would have done 121DF3 but i didnt have the AI on auto block mode!
oh really?? im never gonna get good with timings cuz of the lag! need to get a lagless monitor!! but thnx ill work on that!!

 

[Adrenaline]

thx! ill most definitely work on that

 

[beau]

Great video Tony;D

 

[Creepy00]

Tony
What is the timing after 123 close bomb, ragdol on the second video? I having problems connecting the ragdol with the explosion of the close bomb :/
Is it practicable?

You mean the second combo? If so thats actually a midbomb im exploding off. You can also make it explode off a close bomb. Its mainly just for show that combo, its not very practical as it uses 3 bars.

 

[NYCj360]

i cant believe this hasn't been asked..... HOW THE HELL DO YOU USE THE SAME BOMB MORE THAN ONCE?!!!! IN ONE COMBO?

 

[TONY-T]

It only works off the 1,2,3 string and sort of after the 2,2 string under certain conditions.

for it to work off the 1,2,3 string, you must land the string on your opponent at a medium height whilst juggling them. If you land the string to low the bomb wont come out.

For it to work off the 2,2 string, the 2,2 string must be the last hit of the combo. 2,2 actually has a delay after it for executing special attacks such as bombs and nets. The 2,2 string must be hit low to the ground and your opponent has to have touched the ground at the end of the combo. when this happens you can buffer out any bomb, because the combo counter has reset.

You can see this in action at about 6:12 in my vid.

It can basically be done from any combo, even bnb's such as this..

uf+2, 2,1~net, uf+2, 2,1~EXbomb, midbomb, d+2, b+2, 2,2, 2,2~midbomb

I think I found a reset.need someone to test it

I always loved those Cyrax videos Tony, learned a lot from them. Nice combos and such, but at the same time I have to question the effectiveness.
I feel like as long as you don't play against a Cyrax as Cyrax the 100%+ is not very effective, since you need to build up 3 bars in the first round if you want to do it, and from that point it's an overkill and a waste of bar. Still you can keep it for the second round and catch the opponent off guard, instant death...i wouldnt break it because of simple amazement.
In a real match I feel like the combos using one bar is enough, and it won't render Cyrax barless to the next round so keep it effective. And that 30-40% left is just you know...a thought for the mustard. Maybe one more bar, if you don't want to give any chances.
I would really love to see Cyrax from a more strategic approach, using teleports where not even needed, keeping you busy, building bar, but making sure that whatever happens you still have your options if you fuckup, or if opponents break. That would make him not only this flashy combo beast but something to really be scared by anyone.
Other thing, I believe that there must be a way to build a whole new bar during a reset combo,or at least bringing him close to it.
Regardless of this point of view I love the creativity behind your videos and the effort you put into it. When I was started to write this I wanted to fight your Cyrax. Now I don't. Scared as hell.

Thanks for your feedback Alice. I agree with your post 100%.

With my vids i always try and focus on new things, usually stuff that hasnt been seen yet, Even if some of that stuff is 2 bars or more. At the end of the day its a combo video and not a "cyrax most useful combos tutorial" . Though this time around i put heaps of useful 1 bar and no meter combos as well as heaps of new and usefull tech. But your very right, anymore then 1 bar in a combo is a waste. On the last round of a match i dont mind using more then 1 bar though. even X-ray
