Breakthrough I might have a way to figure out Cyrax Toasty Boost!

MK11 Kabal = MK9 Kitana
Question is... can you do them while holding block? You don't want to be doing some random unsafe move and get comboed for it just for the sake of meter...

Do this on Kabal and you would eat a wakeup spin for your trouble and end up with only one bar lol ... if you had two to start with, now you have LESS meter haha

this would nice to have confirmed, it would make sense that the input would still work when holding block

nice thinking.would be good to know this,
even if some of the toasty inputs could have block as the button instead of a face button (like some fatalitys do)

knowing barakas luck his input will be ddu4 :confused:

As a general rule, holding block doesn't cancel your inputs but it would be good to know if you have to release before or after the attacking button (ie. block the whole time and still get the boost).

I've heard you can activate the TB before the end of your recovery frames. As well, you can use the MK4 method. Say Kitana for instance:

hold 4, ffb, release 4.

This is important for all players to learn because your opponent might uppercut you in a match, which will give you a chance to activate TB. As well as ending rounds with uppercuts, or just incorporating them into combos as UsedForGlue said.

What do you think about another pattern like the position of the character at select screen?
For example scorpion command use the "1" button and he is placed first, next is Liu and use "2".
Some other characters follow this pattern too (kitana & stryker), except sheeva

Can someone try kung lao with "3" and sub zero with "4"?

Think waaaaay outside the box. I like that.
I just checked, Kitana's is 4 and she's fourth on the screen. Stryker uses 4 and is 4th on the screen.

However Sheeva is 4 and is 2nd on the screen... Still that was a good find.
 
For those requesting characters:

- We are basically trying the same inputs for every character - BBD 2/3, FFB 2/3, DDF 1/2/3.

- If you have PS3 online, we can run through the characters much faster and try the above inputs. One player can be Reptile and the other can be Sub Zero. Both players try the same inputs = saves A LOT of time. If you have online, PLEASE contact me. My PSN is CHECK-

My guess for noob is because if you look at stryker he uses bbd an he is 3 rows under kitana. Noob is 3 rows under Liu who use same command as kitana.
So noob=stryker but in second place. bbd2
Something similar hora to cyrax. 3 rows after bbd sheeva use ddf so: cyrax= ddf1

interloko - i always go with my heart. i try to use my brain too, but i like trying to guess which character has it. those split moments in time like scorpion or stryker where you say "try bbd", that's your heart telling you that.

i'm not going to take away from your pattern theorys, because i like them. just be aware of it happening anytime you play and go for it. it's not all brains. it takes heart and dedication too. try your patterns out and let us know. i will get to them when i can.

All I can do right now is guessing, I'm at work :p
I'll try some of this later.
Will be great if another command is found to try more patterns.

Great job so far.
Do you know if the player who is getting hit is allowed to activate it? If he does I suppose is like fighting against smoke in mk2, no matters who get the toasty, the first one doing the command is who get it.

Try when you get home :)

Thanks man. The Toasty even comes out while cpu fights each other in idle mode, so be careful not to wait too long.

Not sure if its the same as MK2, but it better be :)

Trying Sub now. BBD2, BBD3, FFB1, FFB3

I made a list of commands to try:
Kung: ddf3
Sub: bbf4
Sindel: ffd1
Ermac: ddb2
Rept: bbd3
Jc: ddf1
Jade: bbf2
Mil: ffd3
Nightw: ddb4

I made the others but first i'll check these

We seem to be closest with Sindel (similar to d,d,d,1 stage fatality), Mileena (similar to roll), Nightwolf (similar to charge), and Quan Chi (similar to skull toss) based on what people have posted about witnessing them.
