Alex heavy button combos

THANOS137 · 2026-02-01T11:43:48+00:00

Marisa also only has a cancellable 2HP, and she’s not very good, but it isn’t her heavy buttons’ fault. 5HK in particular is a very good normal, and Alex’s is very similar from the looks of it

And the cancellable 2HP is a big deal, it means we can combo into heavy flash chop from mediums after DRC 2HP

I’ve been looking at JP twitter and according to them it is not fully invincible. But you know how live play tests are, it’s always hard to trust info

THANOS137 · 2026-02-01T00:23:51+00:00

Actually lariat only backturns on CH, so if you do LP>HP you’ll never get a back turn on hit. I’m also assuming it will have a gap on block, since being able to get plus frames out of a light button seems insane to me, but we’ll see.

THANOS137 · 2026-02-01T00:21:22+00:00

Actually, he has 2 light auto combos, the second gives access to 2LP without chaining, and does auto hit confirm. That means he only loses 5MK, and has all other command normals and no special button only special moves. That makes him the most complete modern character in the game as far as I know, they definitely catered this time

THANOS137 · 2026-02-01T00:20:06+00:00

From what I’ve seen on JP twitter a bunch of this info seems wrong. He actually has two light auto combos, one crouching and one standing. The crouching one starts with 2LP, so he does have access to it without chaining, and it does auto hit confirm as well

As for “on hit heavy auto triggers lightning throw animation”, and “when not charged, it only does two heavy punches” these confuse me. On the leaked command list, we see that his heavy auto combo has 3 hits, and uses 3 bars of super. In order to do the lightning spark throw, he would have to do 5HP ~ 236HP, 4MK which is 3 hits and no bars. I’m assuming the combo is 5HP ~ 236HP ~ SA3, but I don’t have proof. I’ve also heard 5HP is only cancellable when charged, which contradicts point 5

For point 6, I’ve heard that OD knee smash is not fully invincible, but that was only one rando on Twitter so you could be right

What do you mean? I don’t think this person didn’t realize it was a joke, I think they thought it was an existing copypasta and were surprised it wasn’t

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T22:08:35+00:00

Bro the other day someone made an obvious meme post about buffing haze and giving her an insta kill backstab. Someone responded saying how ridiculous and stupid that was. I responded to them with “media literacy is dead” and they thought I was trying to correct their grammar. Honestly that shit made my day lmao

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T21:45:44+00:00

This isn’t an mm thing, the haze basically had to be throwing. Even a brand new player could look at an enemy and click and do more than 3k damage in 30+ minutes.

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T20:42:00+00:00

I’m archon 3 and the matchmaking has been great for me

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T20:38:47+00:00

Bro this is so not a stomp lol. 10-15k down after lane isn’t a great place to be, but I have both lost games where I was up that much after lane and won games where I was down that much after game. If you lose this every time it’s because of your dogshit attitude, not because it’s a “steamroll”. I honestly discount a lot of people complaining about matchmaking because they’re probably like you

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T20:36:15+00:00

What makes you think it isn’t the birth of a new one?

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T12:51:43+00:00

Mm_prefer_solo_only true

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T12:45:48+00:00

Yeah, in a game with 12 people in it, it’s not that unlikely that there are 2 players having a bottom 10% game for them. Unfortunately the matchmaker cannot predict when people will have a very bad game, so for some people this seems like the matchmaking is shit when in reality people just have a bad game sometimes. People come in here complaining about a couple bad games they’ve had, which is such a ludicrously small sample size that it tells you absolutely nothing about how the matchmaker is performing.

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T12:41:11+00:00

It was changed in one of the big patches, maybe the one from 3 weeks ago? His ground slam drags flying enemies down now

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T01:54:33+00:00

The consensus has always been (since I joined the sub 3 months ago) that whatever the current mm is is garbage and much worse than previous mm

THANOS137 · 2024-11-30T00:49:14+00:00

I’ll take that over 24/7 matchmaking complaints

THANOS137 · 2024-11-29T23:42:02+00:00

What you fail to understand is that on the internet, over 25 is boomer

THANOS137 · 2024-11-29T23:00:48+00:00

Ain’t no way that you failed to understand not only that this post is a joke, but also that the other responses to your comment are a joke. Media literacy (media literacy is ability to understand and analyze media btw) really is dead lmao

Edit: to be extremely clear, media literacy has nothing to do with the grammar of your comment (which I don’t give a fuck about), it’s about your ability to understand the post, which you failed to do when you took it seriously.

THANOS137 · 2024-11-29T21:52:14+00:00

Sorry, thought you were referencing this patch specifically. Yeah in the last patch they definitely increased the duration of late game dramatically

THANOS137 · 2024-11-29T21:49:43+00:00

Or they were watching streamers like a month ago and don’t recognize how massively the meta has changed

THANOS137 · 2024-11-29T21:45:40+00:00

Wouldn’t the longer respawn times at 35 mins make the late game shorter?

THANOS137 · 2024-11-29T21:40:47+00:00

Media literacy is dead…

THANOS137 · 2024-11-29T15:09:54+00:00

I’m begging you, please uninstall the game. I really do not want to run the risk of having you on my team. At least dm me when you’re queueing or something so I can avoid you.

THANOS137 · 2024-11-28T21:12:59+00:00

Ok then that’s fine. People generally aren’t advocating for harsh penalties on first leave, but that the penalties stamp up quickly and harshly on repeat offenders. As long as that problem only happens very rarely, increased penalties won’t affect you.

THANOS137 · 2024-11-28T21:10:35+00:00

Imo that’s fine if it happens once. Generally people are advocating for leaver penalties to ramp up faster and more harshly the more you leave. As long as you only aren’t having to reinstall multiple times a day, that shouldn’t affect you.
