How do I properly do air combo's

[Sansei Muramasa]

I currently can do light, light, down medium, normal medium, jump, light, medium, down heavy,
super dash, light, medium, jump forward, light medium. But I see people do a second down heavy, but this time they can hit them without dashing. I always hit the enemies too high. Any tips?

after super dash hit LL 2H double jump LL what ever finisher. its just a pretty tight timing.
feels like 1-3 frame link basedo n char and hight.

If you do a second 2H in the air, it acts like a normal hit. If you follow that up with a jump cancel and 2 hits of the Light auto combo, your character kinda shifts into range to make those hits connect.

2M,5M,9J,5M,5L,5L,2H,SD,5M,5L,5L,2H,JC,5L,5L,5H

As I said, follow up the down heavy with a jump cancel and then 2 light hits, the game let's your character make those hits even though it wouldn't normally be possible. It's important to just tap jump and then follow up with the light attacks, don't hold jump.
You should learn numeric notations, but here you go:

down medium, medium, jump forward, medium, light, light, down heavy, super dash, medium, light, light, down heavy, jump cancel, light, light, heavy

The bnb working for a lot of characters is like

2M 5M (they get launched and you do the first jumpcancel)
> jc.M LL 2H superdash (the easy part)
> LML 2H (the amount of hits before the 2H might be different from char to char)
> jc.LL S special/super/vanish (the hard part. After you superdashed in your combo the second 2H can be jumpcancel'd. You want to input up.light or upforward.light the moment your 2H connects)

This works for a lot of chars, not all tho but is the general structure. Doing 2H jump cancels consistently is kinda important. Just practice them.

Lmao get gud is how homeslice. If you don't even know this then you suck. Talkingallthatshitboi

i'll keep it simple, turn your combos into vanishing cancel combos (vanish cancel can only be done by (sparking+ holding vanish)

You only get one doublejump per combo. You prob have the same problem I had at first where in the air I would go L,M,9,L,M,2H,H,L,M. Problem is the double jump between the L+M combo used up the jump that puts you high enough to extend the combo after the second air 2H.

What you want is (from a jump) L,M,2H,H,L,M,2H,8,L,L Then finish with a super from something that causes a hard knockdown, or use a smash into a vanish and dragon rush them as they fall to force another character in. Or if you want to get fancy use the L,M,L combo on the first two, trying it after the second 2H will usually cause you to whiff the strike, best to just rely on the two lights since the second strike tracks and puts you exactly where you need to be to land a skill.

As soon as I realized I only had one doublejump and using it to get two L,M combos when I first got in the air, the extension became super easy.

Still struggling? Maybe this explanation will make it click:

The part relevant to you is towards the end, but maybe watching the whole thing will help you out in other ways.

Hey I’ve got a favour ask.
You mind adding me on discord and show me how to do it from cap. I watched all the videos on this matter but whenever I do second down heavy the enemies always go way too high and then I can’t go high enough to hit them.

My bad. I just rewatched it and I'm not pressing light medium light.
I'm only doing light medium XD

[Pafti]

I don't use discord. Me showing you how to do it, would look the same way all other people are doing it, and how Max does it in the video.

Pressing just light, medium is fine, light, medium, light is just a thing you can do to get a bit more damage, and for some characters you can even do medium, light, light instead which would be optimal. Though it looks stupid in my opinion.
Anyway, that's not what your problem was, getting that last light attack won't make you close the distance. Your problem is that you're not jump canceling the down heavy into 2x light attacks properly. Max goes over that too. I would just jump into the game and try to copy his movements, do it with SSJ Goku too, the important thing here is to understand the concept, once you can do it with SSJ Goku, doing it with other characters will be easier.
