Can't do the assist super!

[DudePong]

It always just calls in the assist, I've gotten the virtual controller as well and it shows i'm doing half circle forward or back and then assist button but it still won't call in the character to do a super! Help please!

Has to be done during an attack that's hitting the opponent.

So as they're being hit by the hit I have to do the half circle forward or back?

Yes. That assist-super feature only works while the opponent is in hitstun, but technically even something like a 5L is enough for it to be enabled.

Still not working! Have I disabled it somehow?? All it does is just send out the assist! Even the virtual controller says im doing half circle forward or back!

Hard to say what's wrong. Keep experimenting with the timings, post recordings if you can.

Okay, the same thing happens every time, I knock them down and as they are falling to the ground I do the Half circle back and it just calls out the assist.

Something helpful actually is if you could show me a virtual controller video of one being done. I can't find a good one.

Don't think there is any, but I'll try and make one. No promises, I'm on a potato.

Here, it's not the best quality, but it should work:

Small note, the input SHOULD be 41236A/63214A, though as you can see my inputs are a bit messy sometimes and that's not exactly what I press.

Ahh thank you!! I was doing the wrong thing, I was actually doing half circle back to the left not half circle down. but how do I do a level one?

Level 1 is forward, level 3 is back.

In general in fighting games, special inputs are always considered so you don't include any up direction except on very rare occasions, since the jump would come out as a priority.

This is also why airdashers tend to use numpad notation. No ambiguity of any kind, even for the more absurd moves.
