Just completed this combo, very difficult. I was struggling with the dash upper but then i figured a way to do it. When you jump HK, stand Hk you have to wait like 1/4 of a second then do LK dash upper. This helped me alot .
Now that I have my TE Fightstick, this combo is super easy! Although every time I try to get it in a proper match, by the time I have done the jumping HK and standing HK, I am too far away for the crouching LK to connect :(
i just did this a min ago and here are the tips i got for ya...
if youre having troubs with the dash upper like me (this one and vipers last were my last trials left) what i did was imputting the low light kick by doing downback+light kick, then sliding from downback to back (pretty obvious i guess but before then i was only getting running low uppercut i believe
also.. dont mash on light punch and it will connect...
Just in regards to the dash upper, I found it easier to use the d-pad in combination with the toggle. So to explain: when executing the ex dash upper, hit forward on the d-pad instead of moving the toggle forward. You still charge with the toggle and only use the d-pad for the dash upper, there is enough time to do a cr. LP after the dash upper as well. Hope this helps, it certainly did for me.
Thanks for the tip on the cr lp lp to heavy headbutt, was very handy.
The Heavy buffalo head butt just does not want to connect for me. it either doesnt come out or the timing is wrong cuz dan blocks. everything else runs smooth cept that. its driving me crazy.
This combo I keep doing the EX-Dash Low Smash instead of Dash Upper. I've invented my own Trial #5 to do online which works perfect for me and is guaranteed online pretty much as I don't fuck it up it's just simply this.
Jump in HK, low LP, low LP, low LP, EX-Dash Upper, low LP, low LP, EX-Dash Upper, low LP, low LP, EX-Dash Upper, low LP, low LP, EX-Dash Upper, low, LP low LP, Heavy Buffalo Head, ultra. (Keep kick held down for guaranteed hits).
It's instant, because there's only one light hit. There's still a pause between the two crouching light punches though. The ones that lead into the Buffalo Head.
wow quick response, i figured out what my problem was, i wasn't hold back while i was doing the standing roundhouse, hence the EX Dash Upper never coming out lol
Do you not have any problems doing the Dash Low Smash instead of Dash Upper?
On Trial 4 I found out how to guarantee Dash Upper but on this trial out of about 300 attempts I've done Dash Upper about 4 times, even while attempting to do QCB-forward instead of DB-forward. I dunno why, even when I press up-forward to guarantee I'm nowhere near pressing down he still dows the Dash Low Smash.
I'm baffled in all honesty. I've gotten combo 4 down but this one is just too weird on the Dpad.
I know how you feel. When I had the SF4 pad, the same thing kept happening. As it happens, this annoyed me so much I got the TE Fightstick, now I have no problems with that XD
this one has been a thumb blisterer for me. The hardest part was trying to connect the buffalo headbutt after the crouching light punch. It never would do the headbutt. I thought I my problem was not charging it long enough. turns out it wasnt charging at all. Cause i would hold down back on the 360 dpad but it would register straight back. so instead i held down to charge the buffallo headbutt. I guess my 360 controller is messed up. but that fixed the problem. I need a joystick.
ex-rush upper is a great move as well as the ex-smash for combo resets. played against some seth and i was getting absolutely murdered, but i was able to land j.rh, x4 cr.jab xx EX-rush upper, cr.jab, cr.short xx EX-rush upper, cr.jab, cr.short xx EX-overhead smash reset cr.strong xx headbutt xx ultra which basically wiped out all of his health. too bad that flashy combo is only useful against seth because of how weak he is. i kinda felt bad for that guy i played because he ate so many hits
Is it even possible to fully land the ultra after a headbutt? i have tried many different times and can only land one of the ultra punches after the headbutt. I see videos on youtube and they can fully land the ultra after the headbutt but that's on the arcade version so i was wondering if that was the only reason.
I'm having trouble doing the Buffalo Head, the rest of the combo I can do fine, and I can do [Crouch] Light Punch -> [Crouch] Light Punch -> Buffalo Head perfectly, but when I do it in the combo I just can't get it, Im wondering is the timing different in the combo or am I just not holding it long enough, any tips are appreciated.
I actually get this question all the time. When I did the combo, I staggered my rhythm for those hits. Instead of doing something like (C)light-->(C)light-->Buffalo Head. it was more like (C)light----->(C)light->Buffalo Head.
In rhythm terms, instead of. . .
(tap)--(tap)--(tap), it was. . .
(tap)-----(tap)-(tap)
Putting the last two closer together tends to make it work more consistently in the challenge. I hope that helps, and good luck.
i can get up to the ex upper dash and can usually get 1 jab in, the problem is the second jab i press to fast so that i cant do a buffalo headbutt after or i try and press the second jab slowe but it doesnt come out
I had the same problem. For a while even when I connected it, it wouldn't be the upper, it would be that other stupid move. If you're having that problem, you just have to be really precise with the thumb movement, and make sure you're only pressing forward.
so what about guiles since his flash kick is down and up then his special is diagonal left down, sweep diagonal right down, back to diagonal left corner then diagonal top right corner? i can do the special no problem..but doin a flash kick then the special is a different story. would the same concept apply for guile as it did fir balrog?

I do everything on a 6axis or Dualshock 3 ps3 controller. Arcade sticks have never been my thing, but i do plan on getting a 6button controller eventually. My brother who did the Ken videos is the same way.
I will say however that the 360s D-pad is the bane of my existence. Not to bash the 360, because the system's fine, but Idunno how I would have fared on these combos if I was stuck using that thing. haha
Lol... i always get to the end where u have to ultra and my head is so dizzy from trying to remember where to charge everywhere else that the ultra never comes out haha
Awe man, that happened a good number of times for me, but even worse was getting the ultra off too soon or too late by like a frame, and seeing it whiff by Dan's face. Sad times.
yo i been doin these and i always get stuck o the charge characters. How do you do a charge move and do a charge special right after? i find it impoSsible cuhzZz. you gotta let a niggah know.
What xkingxgrimx said was correct, you just have to do the special in the middle of the motion for the super.
So for example, charge back, then press forward+punch---> back----> forward+punch.
Balrog is great for this, as he has a lead-in combo that just wrecks half the life out of whoever it hits. Jump in with a Heavy kick while charging back, then do a crouching medium punch--->forward punch----->back----->forward punch.
Please help me with 5 trial.
Why can't connect Crounch Light Kich with EX Dash Upper?

congratulations you just wasted 4 ex bars and your ultra. You made a flashy combo tho
MrSuperlollo 2 years ago
It's nothing special. Most of the full EX bar + Ultra's are a waste but they sure are fun to do.
It just makes a change from doing Balrog's one combo wonder adding the Dash Upper into it.

It does look nice, but the damage gets insignificant FAST. Which kinda sucks... If only the flashy combos were worth doing :(

heya just a question, about the jabs
i can get up to the ex upper dash and can usually get 1 jab in, the problem is the second jab i press to fast so that i cant do a buffalo headbutt after or i try and press the second jab slowe but it doesnt come out
got any tips?
thanks
nice videos btw
Sayishere 3 years ago
It's all in the rhythm. Instead of pressing those hits in an even rhythm, you have to stagger it a bit after the first hit.
So to illustrate what i mean, instead of looking like. 1--2--3 (1 being the first punch, 2 being the second, and 3 being the special hit)
It looks more like 1---2-3.
You do the second and third hits pretty close together, otherwise you may have trouble linking the headbutt into the actual combo.
Hope that helped, and good luck.
