When you watch and learn combo videos to not get gud at ranked but to get gud to beat your friends and never let them win a single match against you especially your little brother.
Real shit, I don't want to be the next SonicFox or average omegasweat at this game, but i do want to be the guy nobody in my friendgroup can beat. Being the friend in the group that nobody can beat at fighting games kicks ass
Ngl nowadays I trust low sub count channels more bc they take the viewers a bit more seriously. This is probably the best combo video I’ve seen from like 6 different channels
@@date5960 nothing weird about it, big channels are usually grifters jumping onto whats new for views smaller channels usually have a dedication to something, despite it doing well or bad so you know the info's good, how do you not know that? how is it weird?
Watching a few combo videos over the last 2 days I've come to realize that the combat in this game is way more complex than all the haters made it out to be.
Saw another comment like yours. Nobody said nothing bad, literally i'm cruising into TH-cam, twitter, reddit, and nobody hated it. That complain was before the game came out, but that is the usual complaining of arena fighter, not specific of db sz. The only one complaining is the perfection guy
I'm decently good at BDFZ (can do several sparkless ToDs) and I'm still struggling to play this game, but not bcause of the combos, but because of all the defense mechanics. Evading is HARD
i learned so much more in the last 10 mins than i did the whole day practicing the game, i kept constantly revisiting the tutorials and practicing but i never understood combos, i didn’t even consider using step in, but now i know it’s vital, thank you!
Heads up about 5:54-6:37. Players can Super Counter mid combo even when you're behind them. For some reason super counters can be done during hitstun so attacking from behind isnt true as well sadly...
Yep, and since it's only cost is "tight execution" that allows the bots to abuse it way more than any human could making a lot of even the basic combos feel like a coin flip since it can happen at ANY point in a melee combo. It's incredibly annoying to deal with and feels like an artificial inflation of the difficulty. There's plenty of ways that actual people have been defending against various combo routes and the bots rarely do those themselves because why would they when they've got the objectively best option available at any moment which doesn't cost any resources.
@@lonewolfxdash4738 Only if you fight against bots. But for humans it is super difficult to pull off. That's why it is so OP. It was the same in BT3 too. They should just leave it alone.
One thing I learned about TH-cam is people just hop on the video and just start complaining they never give the opportunity for anyone to learn or they never correct the proper way of someone's mistakes keep up the good work just subbed
I just started watching DBZ Sparking. I love the gameplay. I’m not a fighter gamer. After carefully listening to your very detailed and clear breakdown I still have no clue what’s going on 😂
Thank you, I'm a total zero in fighting games and it really helped me grasp the basics. Please do more videos like this, you make very informative content
9:10 After the launch you can also hit (triangle/y) to go hit them with a heavy finish in the air before doing the (square/x) mashes into the (triangle/y) spike. I don’t have the game on right now, but you might need to hit the dash button first and then the (ki) button with heavy finish them in the air. And in this game, THAT heavy finish in the air is counted separately than anyone you did previously before launching them so it won’t break the combo. You can use this to launch them with (up + triangle) and then jump up and heavy finish them and then you can combo into Delta storm or any other combo your character has that starts after heavy finish
@@mattyryon must have been a miscommunication. I’m talking about when they’re flying through the air because of the launch strike. Instead of following up with the punches and then spiking them (this is UNBLOCKABLE they are in tumble animation) you knee them in the stomache first. And then do the rest of the punches. OR you could do Delta combo. This isn’t a blockable move. They can vanish it. But it’s not like you’re just punching someone who’s standing there
Great video! Subbed to you. As a BT3 Player and Ragin Blast 2 player I had no problem with the last combo video and understood it. I really liked the idea that you turned off the HUD for better view
This has been fantastic for learning, thank you so much. I didn't understand how to do the triangle moves in rush attacks at all. I was mashing square and timing my triangle press based on when the character did the Xth move in the combo, I didn't realise you actually just hit square X times and then triangle lmao. Sounds stupid but hey. Now I just have to... learn to execute on this well. Cheers. The controller on screen was really nice.
Appreciate it, had to go through dozens of the same thing to finally find someone covering what does and doesn't work versus an actual opponent blocking. What do you do for offense when you hit an opponent (in the front) but they've already demonstrated they can and will hold block/perception while being hit? Charged smash high lows? Throws? Sidesteps? Teleport? A video covering the options to push offense that can get you from a frontal hit to a mixup (especially one that results in a back-combo if successful) would be huge.
Universal fighting code for face buttons: Square=1. Triangle=2. Cross=3. Circle=4. It’s the same for Xbox. X=1. Y=2. A=3. B=4. This is done so any person on any platform can understand what face buttons are being pressed when trying to explaining combos n what now, it just overall makes it easier to wrap your head around if your on a different platform than what someone else is playing on and their trying to explain things to you.
That's kinda not true and mainly for tekken and MK tho isnt it? cause you can't do 1,2,3,4 on GG since that has S,HS,P,K,D. And the number annotation in street fighter is for directions. 236+p is the hadoken input for example Pretty sure BT series players use R,K,G,S as the "buttons" but I could be wrong
Most videos I watched the combos aren't real and that's just missleading people and a fkn waste of time. This right here is awesome, listen to this man people.
you really simplified a lot of stuff excellently for me as someone who is relatively new to the Tenkaichi series (i did play some BKTK 3 on a ps2 emulator to practice a little before launch, but playing sparking zero with classic controls has posed similiar issues i was facing in tenkaichi 3) I would love if you made a video in similiar fashion to this one but going into detail on the neutral game of teleporting after a move for follow up rushes, like when you're in air, and probably low-key button mashing like me, and you smack someone away and then immediately appear behind them, catching them as they fly and then doing another rush, and then catching them again as they get thrown away again, sometimes it just keeps going on when the normal diff cpu does it and the entire mechanic of it is confusing, would love an explanation in your style !
The fact that you play Classic helps my brain out so much, you don't even understand. Great vid and will be watching more when I can handle more information!
I always couldn't tell if the combos were the same as bt3 where you dash in and combo even more after the 5th hit, but this video clarified it. Can't wait to buy this game
Me, new to the series, and happy that FINALLY someone showed the buttons on the screen. ... But it's... classic... AHHHHHHH. Imma crawl back in my hole and be sad that even after checking out dozens of videos, not a single one is new-player friendly AND visually helpful. 😭
Yeah as darthkel said this video can still be applied to you, basically the only thing different is that guard is Circle in classic when it's R1 in Standard.
What is important to know is that every move can connect with eachother. For instance, after launching the opponent, dash and instead of rush use a Y/triangle attack to stagger the opponent, pass behind, rush attack then sweep his legs and throw him with a down grab, then you can use super dragon rush while he's flying through the air to pass behind him and combo him from behind, you get the point you can do pretty much everything you want.
One combo I been liking was after you know him up in the air and press y to knock him down press b to follow him up and then after hit a super and it does big damage
I think that was the best explanation of how combos work. I've spent some time training with Mr piccolo and he just teaches how to ride the bike. Not how to bmx the bike
Pretty sure even if you are getting hit from behind, you can still the use up + square counter at the same time to turn around and hit your opponent but it does have to be timed right when they hit you Also the outro track is called Lost Courage from BT2 for anyone wondering th-cam.com/video/ZarRj3cCtb4/w-d-xo.html
One mistake I’ve seen people making already is that they play the game by just charging and sending ki blast moves. However, there is a reason why the ki gauge doesn’t last very long. This game is meant to be more a melee and ki blast moves should only be used after a melee combo at least 90% of the time. So this is a great video.

Just watching to check if someone actually understands combos in the game. I saw so much trash that doesn’t work in actually games but finally someone got it right :) u can create a lot of spicy combos by fitting in the correct triangle attack in the right place. I like to finish with a sweep then attack 1-2 times with square then up triangle and dash up etc etc.
Dude youre a god, i never played the old bt's (so im going with new controls because they just make better sense to me) but the whole combat system really just made no sense to me, it felt like all the worst of xenoverse and ninja storm, could you do a vid on defense? Also, idk if its just a me thing but the tutorials and "move explanations" given in game actually made me more confused than just going in blind, big thanks again
Fantasic video!! Reall helped me understand how the game works,could you make a video explaining how to get out of a combo with a vanishing and perfect blocking???
Maybe the real combos are the friends we made along the way
I have no friends. So I have no combos.

It's actually the opposite because of these bloated defense mechanics. You can just hold guard through 90% of "combos" and they will end very quickly.

They can block it if you do that just holding neutral block
@@mattyryon must have been a miscommunication. I’m talking about when they’re flying through the air because of the launch strike.

I did not know that hitting your opponent from the back does more damage.....
Call me Fleece "Booty Warrior" Johnson
aye yo lol
Lol
Videl mains go hard in the lab
A watched a couple combo videos but this one was easily the best so far
Thank you so much for remaking that video!
This was explained perfectly. Easy to understand and see, and at a slow pace to be able to digest everything. Thank you for this video.
Universal fighting code for face buttons:
Square=1.
Triangle=2.
Cross=3.
Circle=4.
It’s the same for Xbox.
X=1.
Y=2.
A=3.

This is done so any person on any platform can understand what face buttons are being pressed when trying to explaining combos n what now, it just overall makes it easier to wrap your head around if your on a different platform than what someone else is playing on and their trying to explain things to you.
This only means anything if the video was talking in fight code. Your key makes people who were lost have to translate twice to get to their inputs.
This is literally only used for Tekken and Mortal Kombat. Not universal at all. Notations just vary depending on the game.
That's kinda not true and mainly for tekken and MK tho isnt it? cause you can't do 1,2,3,4 on GG since that has S,HS,P,K,D. And the number annotation in street fighter is for directions. 236+p is the hadoken input for example
Pretty sure BT series players use R,K,G,S as the "buttons" but I could be wrong
No it depends entirely on how the game maps its buttons
Too bad he’s using the classic controls and most people will probably use modern.
Thank you for not yelling in the mic when explaining things like most TH-camrs. Subbed
As someone whos played the story those real combos a brutal. Goku Black did me dirty
Thank you bro! Great tips for us who have had to work and only had minimal play time
Things make more sense with these explanations
