yo goons, if you want the frame bar mod then check out this video kzfaq.info/get/bejne/j7l3Ztearrmcink.html also peep my video going over reliable loop combos also quick side note: kara p dandy is very applicable but very hard to execute. should be interesting to see what becomes of it... (one example: bite into kara p dandy high low, not meaty but very scary if they are respecting you, which they should there)

I'm glad that instead of taking away Slayer tech they made it more visible when you successfully do it. This is what "making the game easier to understand, not simpler" means!

Possibly the best intro to a video I've ever heard

He has a special mechanic inbuilt into his character that gives Slayer 17,000 additional inertia if he special cancels specifically FROM a dash>superjump cancel. So if he does a dash>superjump>special kara, he gains that additional inertia. Its really awkward that it HAS to be from dash>super jump and not just any dash kara. I wish it didn't require jump. Also to note: I personally find it much easier to do my 236x karas by pretending they are 268HS Behemoths. Makes it much easier. So just do 236dashmacro~9p/k. [Dash macro can be done on 3/6] Also also note: I have reason to believe Slayer travels further when doing the kara from 9sj instead of 8sj, but it probably only matters in very niche situations, if true. Will require more testing. [This mechanic is identical to Potemkin/Sol, but their mechanic is specifically only required to be done from their respective 6k/6s karas, making them incredibly easier]

for kara bite, out of any lag buffering half circle then doing dash + up is good, but if doing it raw, you can actually get it a few frames faster if you start the input with dash. either DM6248H, or the one ive been finding pretty consistent, DM6284H or DM63924H. both should give earliest possible bite raw. if coming from a bufferable window though theres no difference between this version and half circle first. small difference really, but maybe useful down the line you can also kara super off the backdash + 6s move with 63214DM6S, which probably has limited application but is pretty cool

Mighty fine kara tech.

Thanks for the vid mate, was looking for something like that, those loops look sick

Nice video bro, really nice to hear you talk about the nuances of the routing and stuff

hitbox user here, can confirm the kara bsu is quite consistent and easy on it. could be kinda finicky depending on your layout, but its pretty simple to plink dash up and hs to get it. edit: about the pilebunker loops, i saw one on twitter that gets 3 bunkers in one shot, its something like ch. masters hammer, delay 2s>kpb, c.s>2s>kpb, c.s>2s>2h>ppb splat and apparently its autotimed after the first bunker so theres that for a relatively optimal pilebunker loop

Slayer has been adapted to strive so perfectly. People are annoyed that bdc is gone, but to me it's overshadowed by them taking reverse pile bunker and turning it into an extremely satisfying and drip combo tool. Before it was an annoying interaction that would potentially lose you the round, but now I'm having a ton of fun practicing confirms into it and cant wait for the day that i land this shit in a match.

You can route very easily into the clean hit of his super if you do cS fS twice, into HS, and then super. Doesn't work in the corner tho, but it works on both normal block and on hit!

Wow that otg is so insane from pb loop

On grounded hits, if you can route into f.S you can cancel the first hit to guarantee a bite for the universe power up

very nice video lolo

I found he can actually get pile bunker loops off of any hit by doing rc 5[D] c.s 214P delay P, but the link after the pilebunker is HARD, and dmg difference isnt much compared to easier routes

You can also go into loops off of counter hit 2d. Altho 2s is your starter for that

I found out that using WA he can get pilebunker loops too and also from RRC, off of WA as long as you do it from a 2H you can do something like 5S 2H 236S C.S 214P~P and go into them, same off of RRC, Just C.S 214P~P scales way way way better than going into ot after 5[D]

You can also do the typical rekka super kara with dandy step, although im not sure where to yse it other than a reaction option to beat reversals when going for stuff like k dandy into S/K

Does the previous version of the framedata mod just works with slayer, or was there an updated one for his patch? Btw great video!

First thing i cheked for was back dash cancelling and thought man that sucks ......what about forward and boom here we are.

Omg i Actually felt a lil bad there at the end

as always lolo is the goat

Has any use been found for FDC dandy step? From what I can tell, its purely momentum and there's no invuln or anything else applied.

I cannot get the dandy overhead counterhit follow up without swapping sides on the follow up double close slash, what am i doing wrong

How do you have the frame viewer? I thought it’s been stuck on Elphelt patch

Can anyone give me advice on how to do Kara consistently in dpad

great job being someone to clearly break down something like this so early!

Yeah I was so confused when I did the purple thing, I thought it was backdash canceling but I did not know he had Kara canceling to be honest with you

nice intro

i love you

5:39 ive been trying to hit the overhead combo but they keep falling down in front of me after the 2nd close slash, any advice?

There are actually some pretty easy autotimed backhit pb loops off of ch 2h and 5h Ch 5h 214P 2S 214KP c.s 2s 214KP c.s 2H 214PP works

What is the timing of this I seem to get just jk a lot even tho I’m doing up and k together after the dash

OK so the Kara is a mechanic he hit back in +R. At least. In older games it actualy make you invincible during the special. You acn also do it from the quarter circle back specials. You do not need to tap up. You can just do the quarter circle, dash, finish the quarter circle on front top then button. Same for the quarter circle back but put a neutral in between. So what you can do is the gg input. Half circle back forward. But instead you do forward up. With a dash in between.

Welp, time to buy a new controller.

How you can land the 2S on the pilebunker loop? The enemy always recovers after the 5S when im trying to do that

Thanks for the video! I have a question about kara canceling. Are there any alternative methods in Strive, or is this the only way to access it. I wanna punch purple too

How do you get the Kara Command Grab consistently (like 80% of the time I never get the actual dash LOL)? Is it a speed thing with the half-circle so that the dash gets buffered inbetween the half circle?

0:37 that's legacy tech. Johnny could jump cancel his dash previously too but dunno if he could kara it into specials

Do you think it would be possible to use the combo at 5:00 to set up a mix with Dandy step or is it more viable to do something like Oki?

When I'm attempting the Pile Bunker loops, I keep getting the otg roll away animation with the c.S follow-up after a Pile Bunker knockdown. I can't seem to get the timing down. I've tried mashing c.S, slightly delaying c.S, really delaying c.S. I can't get any consistency. Any advice?

were did you get the frame data mod,mines longer works with the new update

trying to kara cancel this stuff on controller is hell ngl

Great video, sucks that kara bsu is hard as hell to do on pad.

i still don't get how to get a pickup from c.s into 2h. I cannot for the life of me do it, I've tried a ton of different timings and it doesn't work

What in the world did this man say at the beginning??

How do I get the frame data, I’ve been looking for the setting for a while and can’t find it

Is this possible on joystick I use joystick

How do I get the frame data tool bar?

So, I see you are using the dash macro. How do you input this without the dash macro? I'm willingly not using it, because other fighting games don't have a dash macro, and I don't want to learn bad habits.

Glad Slayer is good too bad he feels awful compared to other versions
