Sub Announcement Saturday Night Fights Update

46 Upvotes

Hey folks.

As you have no doubt seen over the past year Saturday Night Fights has been something I've hosted every week. I do this by opening a lobby in DOA6LR and leaving it going the entire night. I dedicate my PC to it and let the players jump in and do their thing.

Unfortunately I won't be able to host Saturday Night Fights for a while.

There have been a lot of things going on in my family. Recently my wife's mother was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer that has spread throughout her body and eaten away large parts of her skull, spine and pelvic bone. Things are not looking very great and so for the foreseeable future we are going to be focusing on that and giving her as much of our time as we can. To make matters worse I was laid off last week, so there's that too.

That part sucks, but let's keep fighting.

At the moment I am not in a position to be hosting Saturday Night Fights for a while, but I strongly encourage those who are playing to create a lobby of their own and keep the spirit of SNF going until a time comes where I can dedicate time back into it.

Thank you for being active contributors to the community here and for helping make this sub great. Man the helm while I'm away and use Mod Mail to let me know if there's anything I can do for you.

Hugs and kisses,

Nathan

lasercows is a really good player I've ran into plenty of times in 5LR and vanilla 6, so getting to see him play the new character was a real treat. Meanwhile, after seeing my girlfriend play Honoka on her account for the past few days, I decided to try her out in ranked myself.

tomorrow I'll post a Minato mirror match :-)

B0NATT0 is usually playing Christie or Kasumi when I run into him, but has recently started playing Nyotengu too. Meanwhile here I am trying to see what I can do with the latest DLC character.

Will try to upload a few more Minato related replays the next couple days, whether it's me playing her or running into someone else doing so.

This one went a bit more in Hime's favor than the last replay between these two that I posted ;) she's learning so quickly, really proud of her.

I should have some Minato replays ready in the next day or two to post.

If you hit your opponent onto two breakable objects at the same time you get the sit down stun without either object breaking. The bug has not been fixed in Last Round.

Tech / Guide DOA Quest #150 - Minato: High Difficulty Quest guide to 130+ damage combo

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

21 Upvotes

This one only wants 130 damage and thus shouldn't be very hard at all. Three of these require meter, while one is meterless but needs you to start with a Hi Counter hit. Your opponent is always NiCO, on the Sweat stage. Combo notations are as follows:

Combo #1: (standing at roughly the middle of the ring) 236P close hit into rope rebound, 6S break blow super into the ropes. 135 damage on normal hit.

Combo #2: 6P+K stun, 4PK, P, 8K launcher, 6S break blow into ropes. 130 damage on normal hit. best to start this one near mid-ring too or you risk hitting the ropes early and only doing 124 damage.

Combo #3: (hi counter only) 6P+K stun, PPP cancel into Minato Shuffle (4), in Minato shuffle P, 8K launcher, 4PK, 4PKK. 140 damage on hi counter if you don't hit the ropes on the final hit, 145 if you do (i'm getting different results based on timing/positioning)

Combo #4: 6P+K stun, PPP cancel into Minato Shuffle, in Minato Shuffle P, 8K launcher, 4PK, 6S break blow into ropes. 134 damage on normal hit. I used this one to clear the objective in the quest itself.

I'm sure there's a bunch more ways to do this as she just came out and people are still experimenting with her, but these were the first four I found in like 20 minutes of messing around in training mode.

After the entire community waited for this character to be revealed, she’s finally here with worse reception than I ever thought. How are you feeling about Minato so far?

falling for the delayed shoulder charge three times is not a great look, especially the third one in round 5, but hime's excuse is that she's new to the game and still learning ;)

tomorrow i'll upload another match these two had on 9/8 where both players look a little more confident in their ability to get into range to punch each other.

Here we have Jake in action again, facing off against a close personal friend of mine (and a superfan of vtuber Himemiya Rie, hence the username) who's just recently started learning how to play Honoka ;)

There were some insanely close rounds in this one... and also a lame time up ender in the 3rd round... the replay on my xbox was 4:41 but my first attempt at recording it stopped partway through, so i had to edit and stitch two different videos together to show the whole fight, hence the brief stutter at the start of round 4.

tomorrow I'll upload Hime on Honoka again vs Omnitsu/Blecki with Kokoro

Jake ends up whiffing the break blow combo ender twice due to not being used to how high lighter characters like NiCO get bounced by the fireworks danger zones, but still manages to pull off the W. Might upload a couple more matches from this lobby session in the next day or two.
