"Well, if it's a branch combo(meaning dial combo that ends with L being the switch style button that still hits) then that's the use of the combo.

What's not to make sense? "

"Spiked Blade..........1,1,3,CS"

And "dial combo" ? Whats that?


@Quest

Ahh.. parry cancel. Yeah, I'll be skippin that for along time. ;)

The combos are going well, I am able to make it through most of the arcade without dieing. :)

Ohh he's referring to parry cancelling? Yeah..that's a high level tactic where you stop the frames of the parry or cancel I should say into a move.

I parry cancel sometimes with block, I don't use it with any moves or anything IMO it's too risky online.

You can also parry in mid combos on certain combos in the game, there's a thread on here somewhere listing all the combos that allow you to parry in between the combo, thus you can counter them and turn the tables.

They're high level tactics though so don't get pissed if you can't do it right away, it takes practice.

The sony controller is the best IMO too because it's far better than NGC controller too. I think the Ps2 is the easiest for dial combos. You just dial the code and you're done, NGC you can't, you have to time it right and enter the sequence as it comes up, not just run right through it.

So,

Whats a 'dial combo' ?

Example:

Square, Square, Triangle, L1.

Noob Saibot is a exmple of a easy Juggle in MKA.
