8:37 Close Range Focus
12:58 Seong Mi-na's Break Attacks

29:55 Outroduction
Additional Notes:
- A lot of Seong Mi-na's moves are safe (or safer) when performed at tip range such as 6A
- Soul Charge (SC) 1B is really good and forgoes the tip range mechanic
- 8B+K~BB can require different timings occasionally to follow-up after a 66(B+K) re-launcher
- Note that in the combos where there is a ground splat after a launcher (such as 22B, 66(B), Splat (S!)), it is possible to tech roll to avoid the 66(B+K) follow-up (Same with something like 3B, 3B:K, S!, 66(B+K)). These are just intended to show potential setups, however combos like 22B, 66(B), 1B and While Standing (WS)~B+K, Linger Step (LS)~K, 1B are guaranteed for example
- Also in the sample "combo" setups, the Backturned (BT) B+K's obviously aren't guaranteed, but can smack an opponent that doesn't defend after being grounded
- 6B+K can be nasty at a wall
- A+B is a great Break Attack in particular whether it hits or is blocked from either close range okizeme or as a slower mid range "poke"
- 2B:K actually becomes a natural combo if you can perform it as a smooth "just frame" input
For Directional Notation
7 8 9
4 5 6
1 2 3
Each number represents the corresponding direction. 1 for "Down-Back", 9 for "Up-Forward", 5 for "Neutral" or no input, etc. Quarter-Circle Back = 214, Quarter-Circle Forward = 236, Half-Circle Back = 63214, Half-Circle Forward = 41236, etc.
For Input commands:
A = Horizontal Attack
B = Vertical Attack
K = Kick
G = Guard Button
6G = Guard Impact
A+G = First Throw
4A+G = Second Throw
B+G = Reversal Edge
A+B+K = Critical Edge
Legend:
W! = Wall Splat

*Note that in some featured combos, the 66(B+K) could be teched (yes there's a charged and uncharged 66B+K), and the BTB+K's were for show mainly.

Good guide, would like to see more on her auto GI m8

[@impossibsrusamurai]

Hell yeah I am hyped for Season 2! Haohmaru should be interesting and thank god for those Reversal Edge changes lol. I hope we're getting Setsuka in the pass too.

[@ForceofNature99]

Haohmaru vs. Mitsurugi will be epic haha! YES! My interest in S2 piqued immediately when I heard "RE changes". I'm pretty sure one of those ???'s will be for Setsuka ;)!

[@JadedAlyx]

Now you're gonna have to do this all over again :/

[@JohnnyTheFlash_]

how on earth do i do the combo shown at the beginning of the video? I see how it works and im trying to do it but after the 22B, their knockdown state doesnt last as long or look like the one shown and im trying to see what im doing wrong lol

[@ForceofNature99]

Hold down the "B" in 66B. You'll get a bigger splat. You can follow-up with the 66(B+K) or 236P+KB.

[@JohnnyTheFlash_]

@@ForceofNature99 dang he still replying you a saint man thanks

[@JohnnyTheFlash_]

@@ForceofNature99 do you still get the 8 B+K extension after?

[@crownrasta3560]

In that first combo how did you get her to say perfect to continue the combo?

[@ForceofNature99]

Perform 66(B+K). This is inputted as: Forward, Forward+B+K--> Held down input (i.e. Hold Down B+K for a stronger combo follow-up).

[@etherealsoul1773]

What is your favorite fighting game franchise ?

[@ForceofNature99]

Dead or Alive, SoulCalibur & Tekken in that order.

[@Thalanox]

@@ForceofNature99 What's the best Dead or Alive game? I have 2 and 3 for the Xbox, but I don't like the monetization scheme of 5 and 6 that I see on steam.

[@ForceofNature99]

@@Thalanox Dead or Alive 3 is the best "Itagaki-era" DOA game.
