The DHC Trick - Damage & Hit-Stun Scaling Reset

:: Overview ::

The DHC Trick is a technique that gets you a complete reset of damage scaling and a partial (it seems) reset of hit-stun scaling.


:: The DHC Trick - Execution ::

- Steps -

1) During the round, you must hit the opponent with any physical hit at least once before this trick can become active. This does NOT have to be a part of a combo. Also, this hit can be in the combo that utilizes the DHC trick as long as it comes BEFORE the "captured/grabbed" state (see Step 2).

2) Activate a DHC while the opponent is in a "captured/grabbed" state. This includes most cinematic hyper-combos, Magneto's Hyper Grav, and certain level 1 grab hyper-combos, and some throws/counters.

3) The DHC (from Step 2) graphics/effects must finish without any attack hitting the opponent (there are some exceptions).

This means that power-up DHCs are the most obvious for the trick because you can simply DHC into them and when the graphics/effects, you are in control of your character.

If the DHC Trick is performed properly, the opponent will pop out of the "captured/grabbed" state into an untechable "spin" animation. The next hit will cause damage to be reset (and a partial reset of hit-stun).


- Summary -

So basically... you can hit the opponent (unblocked) with a stand L, wait for 30 seconds, and then do the aforementioned trick and it will work 100% of the time (in my tests... so far this is accurate - there may be a way to reset the state so you must hit them again).


- Notes -

If you reset the training mode state, it clears the "physical hit" and you must strike them again before the trick will work again. If you start a new round, it also clears the "physical hit".

Physical hits count as any strikes, projectiles, and Crossover Attacks (tag ins).

Important Note: If a new opponent comes in (if you've killed the point character or they tag out) you must score a physical hit on that character as well.

Also, this trick can be done with any DHC that can be X-Factor'ed BEFORE it hits (thus making it a DHC that does not "physically" hit). This nets you both the XF damage and the damage reset.

Sentinel: Hyper Sentinel Force (QCB+PP)
Trish: Round Harvest (QCB+PP)
Tron: King ServeBot (DP+PP)

Note: These supers count as not directly hitting so you can actually hit with them as you DHC in.


:: Does Not Work With ::

Dormammu: Air Throw
Hsien-Ko: Back Throw (or any throw, but back throw is most obvious)
Hulk: Gamma Toss (HCB+P)
Spider-Man: Web Ball (QCF+P) - Spin State but No Reset

Spider-Man: Maximum Spider (QCF+PP) - Spin State but No Reset
Trish: Peek-A-Boo (QCB+M) - Spin State but No Reset
Tron Bonne: Air Throw


:: Misc ::

Note: Does not work with Spider-Man's Maximum Spider. I tested every imaginable set-up (with assist OTG, after web-throw, after bounce, after slamdown, cancelling different hits of Maximum Spider... etc).

Extra special thanks to James "jchensor" Chen for being instrumental in helping to hone in on this technique.

Has the damage output reset been patched? Can't get it to work, only the partial cancel of hit-stun seems to apply.

[trag13]

@mariomasv Still works.

[Flygonius]

@ilikeicecream96 OTG stands for On/Off the Ground, a move that can hit the opponent while they are knocked down and often used to continue combos. DHC stands for Delayed Hyper Combo, where while a character performs a hyper combo, entering the input of the next character in your lineup will cause that character to tag in and perform that hyper.

[ilikeicecream96]

What's OTG and DHC and all the other ones stand for?

[90Juch]
