[HervProm3theus]

[bkzapick]

Nice

[aramis90187]

All are nice i would hate to cross you cuz dats some good shit

[obanblader]

sweet and here i thought id always have to do the same old combos with iron fist, thank you *runs off to training mode*

[ArtificialFlavaFTB2]

I got opened up by Iron fist 24/7 against this dude with that Tatsu Akuma assist. I lost 6 times in a row and I am by no means a bad player. I just couldn't believe how he got in so easy on me. I almost felt like some of the stuff he did to me was unblockable. I was using Viper/Doom/Strider btw.

[chiokjiro]

its necesarry to do de dp motion?

[HervProm3theus]

@chiokjiro If you mean after the qcf. M to get red chi? Then ideally yes as it boosts your damage by 20% and you have a LOT of time to do it :)

[ssbbfan21656]

I wonder what Liu Kang would say about this?

[daedra9806]

@ssbbfan21656 he would say HWOOHAYA, in a high pitched voice

[saikumann]

The man with the dragon tattoo

[FreshOffTheDamnBoat]

after the fist of fury hyper, what attack do you do next?

[8bitEGO]

@FreshOffTheDamnBoat b. H, AKA Back + Hard :)

[cellP8]

iron fist is the bomb but his launcher puts him in shame and his open up enemies is hard

[bigfishy14]

Its like someone merged Bang Shishigami from Blazblue and Fei Long. Simply Amazing.

[coulder]

@bigfishy14 More like Fei long and Captain Falcon

[bigfishy14]

@coulder Oh of course, i forgot about Falcon :)

[HervProm3theus]

@DCXASIAN96 it was level 1

[GameYang360]

I subsrcibed because of this video. I thought my Iron Fist combos were good until I saw this

[Suavol]

Sorry for spamming your video with comments, but now I can see the answer to my question. 5 more minutes in training and I can see that using as few moves before the qcf+M as possible allows for more possibilites later in a combo. Which of course results in a much more powerful combo. Heh, I just love messing with that char, particularly the jump cancel after f+H in combos.

Also, I'm a comic book nerd and I knew I'd use him before the launch. It's destiny :D

[HervProm3theus]

@Suavol Shhh thats a spoiler for my breakdown lol ;)

[Suavol]

I love your combos. What I find sad is that usually the weak ones differ by around 50k from the strong ones. It does, however, allow for some creativity and leniency in his rekkas. Regardless, those are great combos and I'm stealing them ^^ Thank you.

@Players wanting to try out Iron Fist

He's weird because he's a footsie character. Instead of moving a lot, I prefer to simply patiently jump around with a H in the air just to be sure. I find it best not to open others up, but to punish them.

[Suavol]

His sM and sH have great range. For example, when any Vergil player does a teleport, immediately sH on reaction. If he attacks, you ALWAYS catch him. If he teleports above you, his moves don't hit you as you move forward. If he teleports on the ground and blocks, just finish with a safe rekka, i.e. qcf+L ^^ Works for me 100% time. I hope it's the same against wesker, but will check it later... Of course they can use assists with that, then you're fucked :D

[HervProm3theus]

@Suavol Haha your more than welcome! Thats the whole reason for sharing these, to give others a starting block when trying to figure out just what the hell you do once you finally get that s.M or s.H lol. I'm just putting together the second part to this video now where I break it down and give some commentary so do keep an eye on the channel over the next week. We will also have a Jam Session and you will see the FIST in action!

[Suavol]

@HervProm3theus Great. I'll be looking forward to that then. I noticed that you usually go for immediate qcf+M when you hit with sM, sH. Do you think it's best that way? Scaling kills hits his damage pretty hard in the end, so it shouldn't make much of a difference. MY usual B&B for him is

M, H, qcf+L, qcb+L, qcf+M; DP+L; M, H, b+H, qcf+L, qcf+H, qcf+S; (after they bounce off the wall) qcb+M, qcf+H, Fists of Fury.

That particular one I use ONLY if I want to use only one bar as it's away ...

[Suavol]

@Suavol

from the wall. Otherwise I simply do the standard other combos to finish with double super. And whoever's playing Iron Fist HAS to love the Dragon Palm (qcf+H). It's awesome, and he knows it, 'cause he always says the move's name :D

Also, what I do against characters that remain after two supers is... I don't do the second one. You can actually bounce them off the wall, press L, dash under and cross them. Even with and assist if you're quick enough. Just in case, my PSN is "Griever_PL"

[ariscool24]

Chances of opening up the opponent with Iron Fist alone: 40%

Chances of opening up the opponent with Iron Fist with assist: 60%

Chances of opening up the opponent with Wesker off a teleport: 80%

Chances of opening up the opponent with Wesker off a teleport with assist: Dead character

[KrazziJ24]

these are the best iron fist combos ive seen up to date! good stuff man

[Shintroy]

Put Iron Fist in SFxT not Fei Long

[thepwner7]

@Shintroy where does that make sense lmfao

[leon1680]

Performing combos with Iron Fist is very fun. =D

Trying to open up the opponent with Iron Fist isn't. =(

[ArtificialFlavaFTB2]

@leon1680 Totally agree

[manuelito1233]

@leon1680 Yeah, they might end up in the air, or you can't get them to open up at all :( his overhead low mix ups are his best bet :P

[Skeezklax]

This would be awesome if he didn't completely lack a mixup game. Only one low normal and a couple low specials that limit combo options. :\

[DraciosV]

Looks like I will be using iron fist in ultimate when I get it.

[ArtificialFlavaFTB2]

@DraciosV He's really hard to get in though. Might not want him on point.

[DraciosV]

@ArtificialFlavaFTB2 Well, still palying Vanilla, I manage to get in with my team of Haggar on point, Thor secondary, and Wolverine anchor. Unless they run sent/doom with hidden missiles I think I can get in. Besides, not only is it more fun to have you favorite characters on point, but I think Iron fist will need assists to help him get in.

[8bitEGO]

@DraciosV Iron Fist definitely needs assists to help him get in.

[DraciosV]

@8bitEGO I'll keep that in mind. Guess I'll need to team him up with Storm or maybe Iron man.

[tekno58]

wow thats fucking awesome i been training with iron fist & i got part of the first combo down i want 2 master him

[HervProm3theus]

@tekno58 Just so you know, the first combo is probably one of the hardest ways of linking the rekkas together. We will be putting out a video soon and I'm going to explain the combos, slow them down etc. The trick to learning the first one though is practicing the qcf.H qcb.H qcf.H over and over. The first link is easy, but linking the second and third you have to delay it ever so slightly to just after the second kick hits, hope that helps!

[tekno58]

@HervProm3theus yea that's where i usually mess up is around the part where you do qcb H then trying to connect it with the other attack its either i mess up with the timing or just fuck the whole combo up all together the first half M, H, f.H, qcf.M, dpf.L, H, f.H, that's as far as i get but im gonna keep practicing this thanks again

[Nuance6]

iron first, DR strange, DR Doom. master all 3 u have insane combo dmg

[ProtonicShadow]

Is Iron Fist gonna be in your guys teams?

[HervProm3theus]

@ProtonicShadow Yea I'm looking to make him a firm character in mine, I used him in the latest Jam Session (6) but only really started work on him after that.

[MegaNoobTron]

Wow...

[TimothyB24]

WOW...UNCANNY...
