Tamaki Amajiki

[fathom mason]

I played her before via monoma and i actually dont get how people find that movement nice the delays and ending animations are terrible

I managed to animation cancel that it wasnt on purpose but i dodged something when i canceled my gamma it was nuts

[carmine crown]

Facts

[lament zephyr]

What is a good aim sensitivity for him? I'm on a PlayStation

[carmine crown]

Not quite sure, mine is universal (sens I use for everyone)

Best advice is just to go in practice range and just play around with the settings

See if you feel comfortable with it

Making sure it's not too slow or too fast

[lament zephyr]

Alright

[carmine crown]

Someone posted this, perhaps start with this as a base then start making some adjustments

[dense shadow]

That hop move worth it? have you tested electrification

[autumn fulcrum]

Anyone feel like leveling up the alpha doesn’t change the size of the grav?

[fathom mason]

Gotta look at it in training

[carmine crown]

space hop is pretty nice, don't need to burn beta charges to gain height

Then combine that with special action for more verticality

[obtuse arch]

what’s the best combo for tamaki?

[carmine crown]

And aimed alpha > m1, m2 > beta are good ones

[marble pumice]

I don't have, I had only spiral

[marble pumice]

I this spiraling leap is underrated imo

better than space hop

nah nvm

[fathom mason]

Aim in alpha, jab, spa, beta
If they wake up early you can tipper alpha them or instead of beta use alpha and go for wake up

[cinder knoll]

lol

[spark oasis]

So clean

[fast reef]

Someone adjust this

[granite inlet]

which amajiki here wants to run with me, a mirio, and a nejire!!!

[autumn fulcrum]

You also jump higher and faster when cloaked with space hop

Wall runner space hop is best build

You can move a lot more when invisible

[dawn wasp]

How do you guys use cannon? This is my biggest weak point yet

Ok I can stall in the air I guess

[fathom mason]

I am
Tamaki enough

[fathom mason]

To find enemies, to finish enemies, to snipe, to air stall, a surprise attack

If someone tells you where ppl are you are a constant pressure

[dawn wasp]

Do you charge it or not?

[fathom mason]

Usually i dont charge it

[dawn wasp]

I've started not charging it too

[carmine crown]

Does good enough dmg without charging

[granite inlet]

sorry my team is full now

[fathom mason]

Yeah these are late responses imma just play solo q or see who else wanna play its chill

[granite inlet]

alright sorry again

[fathom mason]

Its fine

[fast reef]

I put so much reload on my gamma bro

And it still feels slow 😔

[ornate gate]

Seeing this so late 💔

[fathom mason]

Im still playing

But just warning im playing expert
Ranked

[ornate gate]

You on ranked or nah?

[ornate gate]

I’m expert 2 it’s all good

[fathom mason]

Ik ppl say its all good then get demoralized and give up ☠️ ☠️

Like i just play and go next

[ornate gate]

Depends on the games. I keep going too but sometimes it’s aggravating

[fathom mason]

Fair tho

I would say a break is always good but dang i get handle a few rough matches

[ornate gate]

Same

But if you wanna join I’m duo queuing with Unknown. Idk if you wanna 3 stack or not

[fathom mason]

Yeah we can link up

Randoms are actually like made to ensure i cant win

Or at least force me to fight full teams

Dw im still climbing regardless but wow

[ornate gate]

Ight code is uh. 33833. I ain’t warmed up so I might sell.

[fathom mason]

I landed a full 5 hit combo on someone and their whole team pulled up

As tamaki

[fathom mason]

Im still in my match idk ig the game wanted to prolong me to this team that just isnt good together

☠️

They messed my combo up twice and it ticked me off

[ornate gate]

Gotchu. We’ll wait

[fathom mason]

Alr me thinks its ggs

Im in

[ornate gate]

Mb was working on builds.

Time to suffer. And get up. And suffer again

[glass sable]

Mainly me/hj

[fathom mason]

I tried my best.

That is all i have to say

[glass sable]

You did great

[fathom mason]

I wish i had more heals to give yall i saw the struggle

Compress in end game is crazy i didnt see him all match

[glass sable]

Listen I only care about if you two live tbh

[fathom mason]

NUH UH I CARE IF YOU LIVE

[glass sable]

I HAVE REINFORCED I MUST SUPPORT 😭

[ornate gate]

I’m just here

[fathom mason]

You. Deserve to live.

[ornate gate]

I do the damage amage amage

[fathom mason]

No you were dealing damage like a champ

Idk i just help finish kills

[glass sable]

I was picking off kills

[fathom mason]

I wasnt really doing much but keeping people off you

I grabbed so many people tryna chase

“Yoink” get back here stop chasing :)

[glass sable]

I'm gonna gamma max after alpha so we can do devious grab combos

[fathom mason]

Devious schemes

[glass sable]

They're hallmarks of defilement but...it's fun

RONIN IS IN HERE

WE'RE DONE

COOKED

[fathom mason]

HILLLLL BAHHH

HELP

I DONT WANNA BE INA. VIDEO

Ok ronin killed me

please dont tell me hes streaming

☠️

I knew it was him HE WAERS THE SAME DRIP IN HIS VIDEOS

AND SHOOTS LIKE THAT

[ornate gate]

Bro…

[fathom mason]

My best hope is that’s an impersonator

☠️ ☠️ ☠️

im to shy for this bruh

[glass sable]

Why we getting Ronin in our lobby..

[ornate gate]

With that kind of name

No

It’s him

It’s gotta be

[fathom mason]

☠️

NOOO

[ornate gate]

Let’s uh

Wait to queue thoughts?

[glass sable]

Yes

Yes please

[fathom mason]

Idk man ig

This is terrifying

Im just a controller player

I stand no chance

[glass sable]

Bro that

That got to me

[fathom mason]

He 1v1ed me and i couldnt even SEE HIM HALF THE TOME

HE WAS ZIPPIN

BRO FOLLOWED ME TO THE ROOF

[glass sable]

Yeah thats Ronin alright

[ornate gate]

You can’t see him til you’re knocked

[fathom mason]

My movement isnt good enough at all

[fathom mason]

I saw he was assault deku and screamed

True fear

Hes the only player im genuinely scared of

☠️ ☠️

[glass sable]

The moment Void said he was in our lobby my face went

[ornate gate]

We should be lucky they wasn’t on Bakugo 😭

[glass sable]

FR

LIKE

[carmine crown]

That's insane

[glass sable]

WE WOULD'VE GOTTEN BEAMED

[fathom mason]

I SAW IT TIL TO LATE

OM
LITERALLY GONNA GET PUT IN A VIDEO

IM SO NANAISJISJ

😭

[glass sable]

I almost audibly screamed but I didn't wanna break Voids ears 😭

[carmine crown]

Were y'all the first team to die?

[glass sable]

Oh btw Omi

[fathom mason]

hopefully that game wasnt good enough

[ornate gate]

No

[glass sable]

Would you wanna do a vc?

[fathom mason]

No he KILLED ME AND VOID WAS RUNNING FROM SOMEONE ELSE

[fathom mason]

Sure 👍

[glass sable]

Kk join one and me and Void will join you

[fathom mason]

Oka idk how much yap I will do

[carmine crown]

Now I'm praying I don't see him ever

[fathom mason]

He killed me from full gp and hp to nothing

I turned around he melees me

☠️ ☠️ ☠️ ☠️

Wait my controller died

WAIT

MY WHOLE GAME GLTICHED

???

I WASNT IN THE GAME WITH YALL

[glass sable]

Ultra Rumble moment

[fathom mason]

nope

Oh my goddd

Lemme go to the vc channel

[civic crest]

What tune is best for tamaki

I use same thing but fixer

[marble pumice]

yea fixer is the best there

i really like embri tbh, like you have embri on opp u fight all the time

cause melee is so easy to get

but some ppl say that space hop or smth else is better

which even if it is or not. I personally enjoy more playing with embri

[lusty sigil]

Peak character

[brittle dawn]

Hey! Anyone notice so far how when you land a Tipper hit, it feels like you stay stuck for a little bit longer? Yeah. That's because you are- and you're stuck doing your alpha for about 57% longer! Without all the math I did (I made a suggestion about it), TLDR, don't stress about Tipper hits unless you want to preserve ammo, because that's all it's realistically doing since you can't fire as quickly.

[jagged sierra]

that's so wild that the tipper effectively kind of punishes you with like, a significantly longer animation. and it reloads in a second so I can't imagine being terribly concerned about ammo preservation?? we almost only use it to grapple so we're never running out anyways but I can't imagine emptying your magazine outside of like, downing someone with sisterly active or something

[brittle dawn]

Yeah- I found some other wacky stuff while testing various fire rates too lol, this was just the craziest of them all lol

[jagged sierra]

it's definitely good to know, doing niche testing like that is so valuable

I know like, we know tons of wacky kiri hardening interactions from playing him so much

my favourite is that aizawas don't seem to realize that grabbing a hardened kiri is a BAD IDEA

[brittle dawn]

LOL- I accidentally did this with Tamaki- nearly died for it because I didn't see he was hardened.

[jagged sierra]

LMAO honestly it's funny how months spent maining kiri makes us well-equipped at who NOT to grab with tamaki

think we saw a clip of tamaki grabbing an electrified denki which was. a problem for him akjsdhkjashd

[ornate gate]

Hitting Ace with Tamaki is gonna feel so rewarding

[fathom mason]

That feels good..really good

[molten nacelle]

Im almost there honestly

halfway through expert 2

[ornate gate]

You got this

[molten nacelle]

Honestly idk how ive gotten this far this fast

yeah this is where im at

[fathom mason]

Im in a similar situation

[cyan maple]

thanks

[spark oasis]

https://tenor.com/view/amazing-wow-boku-no-hero-gif-23944682

[green stump]

I just realized you can hit beta after air melee on GP but it has to hit very late

[dawn wasp]

You can air melee > alpha grab > beta

[elfin zodiac]

Bunny Tamaki is so fun :)

[molten nacelle]

Still getting used to space hop on tamaki myself but it looks so fun

[elfin zodiac]

it really isssss

[olive fulcrum]

Is there a free option to this haha

So do you need the battlepass skin

[paper sonnet]

The festival one for sure is a good option

If you don’t have the one from the license

[dawn wasp]

what are your tuning builds looking like fellow Tamaki enjoyers?

On the battle pass outfit if possible, I didn't get the other one

[olive fulcrum]

Oh which version does anyone have like a photo of what I should have on it

Cause I got the starter pack last night

[paper sonnet]

? What

[paper sonnet]

Oh you got both of it nice

I have a build for the white one and starting on another style of it but I usually use the casual

[olive fulcrum]

Should I just buy the battlepass then to get casual if it’s like I guess the best one

[dawn wasp]

battle pass is always free ressources if you can get far enough

You should be buying it and finishing it each season (if you want to play that much)

[olive fulcrum]

I see I see

Guess no tuning for me

[fathom mason]

Tahts my boy :3330

[fathom mason]

Yippee

[olive fulcrum]

But just in case what is your build for casuals

[paper sonnet]

I can take a pic in a sec when I get on my pc is that okay?

[paper sonnet]

It’s up to you if it’s worth it or not or if you play the game a lot to finish it

[olive fulcrum]

I do I do but does get lonely playing by myself

[olive fulcrum]

Si

[paper sonnet]

That makes sense

Well then I think u should get it for sure it’s always worth it

And you can always save the gems from it so you don’t have to buy it next time

Just to use those crystals

[olive fulcrum]

Thank you

[fathom mason]

[ornate gate]

I’m free

[fathom mason]

Im not home yet

☠️

I take bus to home rn

[paper sonnet]

Of course

[green stump]

The black hero costume is the one im using with embrittle and revenge strike

[heady wave]

Which casual wear is best tuning for tamaki?

[molten nacelle]

I know me and Rock use the defult casual for Perception and kota finder but I switched to the dangerous (I believe I could be wrong) for Perception/Space hop

But that is personal preference from both of us and I haven't looked at the rest so

[heady wave]

thanks!

tamaki level path?

[elfin zodiac]

personally, i go lv 4 Beta then lv4 alpha and max out Beta because i like to do the combos more than the cannon, you could try it if you like regardless

[fringe sparrow]

anyone got tuning for hero costume?

[elfin zodiac]

you could do revenge assault and revenge strike in the dangerous costume

for being a non PUR costume i think it could be more viable to you

[fringe sparrow]

cool thanks!

[elfin zodiac]

yw!

[crude finch]

Is perception/trance blow good on tamaki?

[wise thorn]

I'd say so, yes 🙂

[elfin zodiac]

Yeah Tamaki has a lot of melee combos potential so it could be nice on him

[crude finch]

Wouldn’t trance blow allow him to theoretically confirm grabs easier?

[elfin zodiac]

Mmm i personally haven't tried it myself but i think so yeah

limiting the enemy's movement and mark them can really easy to catch up with them if they try to run away that's for sure

especially with Tamaki's overall movement

i would say that if you do go with that build look at the melee combos you can sneak in

like alpha grab into melee and beta

[lyric tundra]

I don't like trance blow because it knocks them down faster

Here are some of my favorites to do on Tamaki

[green stump]

Air melee into critical alpha ✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️✍️

[crude finch]

Predicting the wake up is crazy, impressive work

[granite inlet]

can they wakeup from this

[wild plaza]

They can, hence how you cant get the last beta in sometimes. Still good for dmg tho imo

[ashen nebula]

Not worth it if it’s not true

just do a alpha grab into melee into sa into alpha for a confirmed guard break instead of hoping that the enemy doesn’t know how to spam space

[wild plaza]

bruh

[cinder knoll]

how does alpha crits work?

[green stump]

Its complicated but its not distance, the critical hit is at the last few active frames in the alpha hitbox

[wheat harness]

Yo, is it bad that I don’t use tamaki’s tentacle grab a lot? I just find it very unreliable so I just stick to the basic alpha. I feel like I play way better that way

[green stump]

Kinda, because the grab stops armored moves

So at least you should use it against armored moves

[wheat harness]

Didn’t know that thanks

[ashen nebula]

yes

in a straight Alpha vs alpha with someone from any of the main trio you will lose

because they have a higher fire rate on their alphas

use your grab more I would say but up to you

[wheat harness]

I’m trying just gotta find the right opportunities to ig

I still drop like 2 or more kills every time I play him in expert lobbies so it can’t be that bad

[heady wave]

Just kept moving the shiggy to keep baiting the red kiri lol

[green stump]

Casual wear Dangerous with wallrun space hop sounds so good

[fleet pike]

Tier 48, gotta get through that grind

[granite inlet]

guys Aim alpha into special action into beta doesn't workkkk

[ornate gate]

Sometimes it will. As long as they don’t recover

[ashen nebula]

😭

You guys gotta stop feeding people untrue combos

“Sometimes”

is this your first combo character in this game

Why are you even attempting untrue combos just for like 18 more damage compared to the variant that is completely true

Makes no sense unless you’re leveling beta up first (and in that case you’re kinda cooked anyway).

[granite inlet]

what is the completely true combo?

[granite inlet]

Omd... i've been doing a4 b9 a9 g9... am i cooked please help me improve

[ashen nebula]

alpha grab melee sa alpha

at lvl 9 alpha it will crack shield

[granite inlet]

are you serious? wait but like do u do the alpha like directly or like u do the crit alpha

[ashen nebula]

I mean it’s up to you I’m not a master Tamaki but people who upgrade their beta first to me signal a lack of confidence in their aim

The grab is oppressive but people prefer to just spam the beta that auto tracks harder than twice’s gamma

[ashen nebula]

you can do either

idk what you mean by directly

you shoot the alpha at them after they get knocked up in the sky and either hit a crit or not

it’ll still crack shield

[granite inlet]

yes it's exactly that for me i'm scared to miss my alpha

[granite inlet]

ok. Also u can camp their wakeup with a crit alpha right

[green stump]

Thats hard to do

Beta on wakeup is much more reliable and stronger

Also im pretty sure aim alpha > special action > beta works

[ashen nebula]

It quite literally does not

Special action into beta is not true

The only way you will get it off is if your opponent doesn’t know how wake-up works

[ashen nebula]

Better to do a grab Alpha or yeah beta

Also the whole alpha grab into sa into beta is even worse as a combo because unless you have both alpha and beta 9 you aren’t c cracking shield regardless of if your opponent doesn’t know game fundamentals

Might have to retest that one to be sure but the true one requires less investment anyway so it’s a net positive

[granite inlet]

ok thx

[green stump]

There is a way to make the octopus swing part of beta to come out without the dash

You have to be above your enemy after SA and aim down at them

[brittle dawn]

Is Alpha>Melee>Special Action>Beta not true anymore? It feels like every time I do it people air recover, even though I'm using Beta as soon as I can now.

It was such a cool combo too...

[ashen nebula]

It was never true

[ashen nebula]

send a clip

[brittle dawn]

Oof… I miss when I thought it was

[ashen nebula]

It was said day 1 it wasn’t true

[brittle dawn]

Really??? I must’ve missed that

[ashen nebula]

Maybe day 2

Brinyspy said it

[carmine crown]

Alpha does feel better than beta in such combos

Plus that crit sound is satisfying ngl

[digital orbit]

whats the best tuning costume for tamaki

[wary spoke]

haha people hyped up this combo to much

[fathom mason]

🙏

[fast reef]

🇳

🇴

[fathom mason]

No what

[wheat harness]

Started using tentacle more and now I see what I was missing out on

[fathom mason]

Get tentacled!

[molten nacelle]

I finally did it

Ace with Tamaki

finally

[fast reef]

Congrats 👏

[molten nacelle]

https://tenor.com/view/aikatsu-aikatsu-stars-nozomu-igarashi-aikatsu-nozomu-aikatsu-stars-nozomu-gif-23818807

[green stump]

is the combo not true after doing it this way?

[elder radish]

i could be wrong but i think when you use the uptilt they can jump evasive out of it

[green stump]

there is also another combo with beta, air grab alpha > air melee (hit on the last few frames) > beta

idk if its true tho

[dawn wasp]

It does less damage than the true combo anyway…

[dawn wasp]

Both are possible but the crit alpha is a bit tricky to get, you need to special action, hold straight forward and aim at about 1.5 body length higher than the opponent and press alpha as soon as you can, the opponent will fly into the last few frames of the move, giving you the crit hit

[granite inlet]

ummm yeah too complicated

[dawn wasp]

10 minutes in training is all it takes

For a free 50 damage

And if you mistime it, you usually just get a normal hit so it’s not risky to try

Might be hard on controller though

Idk

There are videos on YT it’s way easier to understand from a visual example

[soft hollow]

lowkey alpha if you’re an alpha merchant, a W key demon.
Beta if you’re into quick burst DPS (and if you’re a beta male as you should)
Gamma if you tryna 3rd party and potentially get free kills from one button

[granite inlet]

can u pls send me a yt video on this

[granite inlet]

hm ok. I was like doing a4 b9 but i feel like im not using beta enough, and i usually don't do like alpha beta combos. so ill do a4 b4 a9 b9 g9

[soft hollow]

I don’t even have tamaki but that’s my impression as far as level maxing goes

[granite inlet]

Me neither lol

[raw breach]

Guys is this accurate?

[soft hollow]

yeah

[molten nacelle]

Some of my friends dont understand tuning in this game so i just decided to write up an essay explaining it for them

[soft hollow]

awesome sauce

[molten nacelle]

I just finished it and sent it to my friends

I only explained base costumes and dekus tuning stuff but said they can just ask me for help if needed

https://tenor.com/view/my-hero-academia-sigh-aizawa-shouta-shouta-aizawa-aizawa-shota-gif-4946979222760457261

Im the most experienced player in the server i sent it to so im usually the one helping others

[fathom mason]

WHYS AIZAWA IN TAMMAKI CHAT WHY FID YOU DO THIS TO ME

[wheat harness]

Is tentacle into special action into beta not a true combo anymore?

[green stump]

That seems to be the case

[green stump]

I need to know if someone tried this out and if its true?

[fathom mason]

? Oh ? ☠️

[wheat harness]

They can recover before I hit them with the beta

[fleet pike]

You know to put my 2 cents into it

Usually I aimed alpha, 2 melee, and beta

Or aimed alpha, 1 melee, special, alpha again those have been my bread and butters

I don’t think this is optimal but ye aimed alpha, special, and beta ain’t true unless there’s like some angle I’m missing lol. So this is what I do and it never fails

[carmine crown]

It was never true as stated by briny

Would have to predict the wakeup

Or bet on them not pressing buttons and letting you get the beta off

[fathom mason]

Makes sense

[ashen nebula]

Like the other guy said

Not every combo you hit on a bot standing still in training mode is a true combo

especially when it comes to ones that have someone in the air for at least 2 seconds without being hit

[wheat harness]

I hit those on real players it was my go to combo because of it’s convenience

[ashen nebula]

Then those players are noobs

Because everyone should be spamming wakeup

And does against me

And sometimes die for it because people don’t know how to use their iframes lol

[fathom mason]

Depends on the matchup and a lot of the time spamming wake up is bad

[ashen nebula]

But if you got that lucky that you hadn’t experienced someone trying to wake up against your combo till now grats

[ashen nebula]

Nah you should be spamming wake up if they’re going to follow up and its not a hard knockdown

[wheat harness]

You sure? I hit it on a lot of people expert and ace lobbies included

[ashen nebula]

well I guess if it’s a hard knockdown you wouldn’t be able to wake up I think idk

I forget

[fathom mason]

It depends on the matchup cuz follow ups can happen bc you wake up spammed

[ashen nebula]

As long as you don’t use one of your abilities to get rid of those iframes

just depends on how quick you can get out of there

[fathom mason]

Me when they read the exact time im gonna try to run away without iframes and still kill me

☠️ makes me mad eveytime

[ashen nebula]

Supposedly there is a way where if you look down while beta’ing it cuts out the dash which allows it to be true but I have yet to see proof of that

but otherwise yes sa into beta isn’t true

Tested it with someone here

[wheat harness]

Not sure if I’m just being delusional but what about jump tentacle into m1 into melee? Is that a true combo?

[fathom mason]

Like i do the most random movement and they still hit me (tbf its typically a pc player)

[ashen nebula]

Sounds like one

[fathom mason]

I have fought some controller pc players and it was pretty unfun cuz i was doing ok n they just dont miss like wow

[wheat harness]

I hit it multiple times wasn’t sure if it was true or not and then today someone got I framed before I hit the beta.

[ashen nebula]

Controller on pc is busted ya

[ashen nebula]

Well now you know

[fathom mason]

Waiting for them to remove aim assist on pc be like: 6000 years later

[ashen nebula]

I mean you’re free to keep doing the combo if you want to take the chance

Just there’s a better true guard break combo that only requires alpha lvl 9

[fathom mason]

Tamaki my goat

[wheat harness]

Tentacle Double m1 into beta?

[ashen nebula]

That would require a high alpha and beta lvl

I am talking about grab into melee into sa into normal alpha

[wheat harness]

Right

[ashen nebula]

I just like to spam his grab a lot because it’s really good

and you can’t out dps other characters with good ranged alphas with his normal

I also play Aizawa so that’s probably why

[wary spoke]

we should pin this true combo thing 🤔

[ashen nebula]

no one checking the pins it’s a lost cause

as long as someone remembers to tell every guy who comes in here per week asking why his beta didn’t hit after sa

[green stump]

If its a hard knockdown you are able to tech but some moves like red dabi beta kick you wont be able to tech

[ashen nebula]

Yeah it’s weird with what actually hard hard knocks you

[wary spoke]

i gave up after a couple of days

[soft hollow]

guys

use perception on tamaki, it's busted

[brittle yacht]

I've gotten a lot of value from it purely because of how long it lasts

spot someone who slipped away trying to heal

gamma

https://tenor.com/view/ishowspeed-try-not-to-laugh-gif-7682731162751353849

[fast reef]

Ppl been doing that for awhile

[fathom mason]

I kind of figured it was good bc cannon snipe

[analog marten]

yo guys what tuning on amajiki? It doesnt matter wich outfit

[fleet pike]

If you have the patience tier 48 with wall runner/spacehop’s casual fit looks really good

[analog marten]

okay ty

[elfin zodiac]

just wanted to make sure he wasn't coming back-

[graceful dawn]

did they remove amajiki combo: pull > special action > beta?

[gloomy jasper]

Any advice fr a noob

[green stump]

It never worked

[soft hollow]

it only works if they don't wake up

[ashen nebula]

😭

[fathom mason]

Guh

[worthy seal]

They did what now?

[heady wave]

It’s so good but it’s just WILDLY inconsistent as someone mentioned if they wake up it’s over

[worthy seal]

I saw one where you hit alpha after special action and it's a guaranteed combo

You just need good aim

[vital jolt]

Perception/Space Hop so you can get Gammas from far away and high jump after Beta is evil... I like you've done with, Suneater

[finite oracle]

Perception tamaki is peak happiness

[granite inlet]

i find amajiki's combos very inconsistent and like all over the place. sometimes alpha melee special action beta works and sometimes it doesn't. Idk. anyways this is my best game with him so far

[wary spoke]

its not true combo

thats why it doesnt work all the time

good people will always escape

true combo is like grab -> melee -> special -> alpha

i mostly do grab > air melee > alpha

grab > 2x melee > beta is true as well

[ashen nebula]

😭 😭 😭

These people bro I can’t

They think the combo is RNG or something

that they’re doing something wrong

so funny

being a bit of a word I can’t say rn but cmon you guys don’t know about wakeups?

[finite oracle]

Thats not even a true combo☠️

[granite inlet]

that cannot be true... TWO ALPHA GRABS IN ONE COMBO? does this work on shield

[green stump]

No you do one alpha grab, then melee 2 times then press beta immediately

[granite inlet]

i meant their combo that they mentioned. but this combo is cool too

I think the one u mentioned rn is more practical cuz it's not as long

[finite oracle]

This is his go to bnb that everyone should always be doing

[brittle yacht]

watching people continue to go on about that combo is creasing me

[green stump]

Its fine guys

[brittle yacht]

it totally works you just have to try it in game one more time trust me

[fleet pike]

Ye I 6/10 times do that and 4/10 times to grab melee special alpha as pax said

[green stump]

My favorite build so far

Only thing im missing is the assault endy tuning

[fathom mason]

How are the games my Tamakis

[finite oracle]

Spectacular

I actually have fun

[fathom mason]

Thats wonderful

Im so happy hes not a braindead character

[worthy seal]

THAT'S WHAT I USE

I just don't have embrittle

I just put beta damage boost over hp

[green stump]

What do you use over embrittlement?

[worthy seal]

Revenge assault until I can get embrittle

[green stump]

Oh ok good luck

[last crystal]

I gotta work on my aim because timing my grabs for the combo has been going horrible so far

That and jank/buggy pulls are always messing me up-

[hushed stone]

Tamaki Amajiki [Strike]

HP Value changed to
350 -> 325

"Quirk Skill Y: Plasma Cannon" now becomes Special Action
"Special Action: Wing Claw" now becomes Quirk Skill Y

Quirk Skill B: Octopus Mirage

• Adjusted so invisibility wears off if the move does not hit an opponent
• Adjusted for the move to only move in the input direction
• Decreased damage at Lvls 7-9

Quirk Skill Y: Wing Claw

• Increased number of bullets at Lvl 9 (Max ammo: 2)
• Increased penalty reload time
• Quirk Skill will not reload until the ground is touched

Special Action: Plasma Cannon

• Increased time it takes until the move is fully charged
• Special Action can no longer be canceled out of by repeatedly pressing input button
• Increased penalty reload time (70 second cooldown)

How does this sound? Does this make Amajiki more balanced for the meta, or does our shy boy need to go home now?

[worthy seal]

I think the special action change is interesting

[hushed stone]

Do you want Monoma to spam Kamehameha's?

[zinc cedar]

IS THIS REAL?

[hushed stone]

He can't do that if Tamaki's cannon is his special action.

[hushed stone]

I wish 💔

[zinc cedar]

oh god i thought it was real..

[hushed stone]

One could dream

DANG IT EPIC GAMES. BUY MHUR AND DO THIS BALANCING JUSTICE

[worthy seal]

No but just nerf the gamma tbh

[heady wave]

This person just going to into every character channel with the worst takes ever lol

[hushed stone]

Didn't I say to approach it respectfully?

You're just trashing me and not actually giving solutions to my adjustments.

You're adding nothing to my discussions. Sorry bud.

[heady wave]

u just nerfing stuff in all the convos

[hushed stone]

Yeah, nerfing what needs to be nerfed.

[heady wave]

even the crumb of positive you give the character isnt worth

respectfully, and i hate to say this, it just sounds like skill issues on most of these

like the random nerfs to tamaki, rapid might and shinso are just BAD

u gotta learn to work around alot of that stuff you list trying to be nerfed cuz its not really all tht

but also

some of these nerf suggestion are just so extreme you have to GIVE something worth it back and you havent

if u need help in game ask on how to beat certain stuff

but these "DIY patch notes" aint it

[ashen nebula]

his beta definitely needs a tracking nerf

its absurd

[final yoke]

what is tamakis counter

[ashen nebula]

someone who can spam roll

(the grab alpha will never hit)

the beta will but just be prepared for that I guess

[green stump]

Yeah somebody spammed tf out of rolling yesterday and i couldnt hit them with my alpha grab lol

So i started poking them with my alpha

I can probably time a critical alpha to punish they mindless rolling but thats gonna take a lot of skill

[finite oracle]

My goat assault kendo

[final yoke]

Assault kendo ?

[finite oracle]

She counters his whole kit

[vale whale]

For a counter I would say beamers if they can kite or dodge Tamaki, the range on Tamaki's alpha isn't that long and has a noticeable recovery time. Tamaki also struggles vs multiple characters focusing him since his grab is kinda slow even if he special actions. Also vs Tamaki you want good movement or something that can punish his special action since it has such a low cooldown. Tamaki can't blindly beta vs yellow kendo but his grapple is pretty good vs yellow kendo it can punish clap and taking down the shield.

[fathom mason]

Never cook again

[fathom mason]

Respectfully never cook again

[fathom mason]

Burned the entire neighborhood

[hot bone]

Can I get all the beginner tips and tricks for tamaki?

Also need a tuning build (i dont have festival outfit)

[last crystal]

I don't know, I'm still struggling with Tamaki myself but I think he's definitely more of a background/poke at the enemy damage character. As far as I've learned, you have to keep a mid-range distance unless you want to press beta because it's strong

I also like the pull in with hold alpha, melee jab twice, and then beta combo, but it's hard for me to execute cuz I suck st aiming

[ashen nebula]

he’s not

you can get right up in the bizz and do well lol

his beta auto tracks to heaven and back while having armour on it

[last crystal]

Maybe I'm just bad at being up close then because I get annihilated if I try to go close with tamaki but work well around mid-range

The only time I get a beta with tamaki is when I sneak people

Otherwise they roll it lol

[fathom mason]

Over time you will get used to rolling patterns, imo everyone has a mindset when to roll that you can try to predict . If you need to just practice on reading rolling and movements of you opponents over getting a kill or winning

[last crystal]

Mhmm! Ty for the tip, I definitely struggle with reading my opponents movements

[fathom mason]

Yeah, remember when someone is shooting or in an animation they are tending to be committed to the action (cant do something til the animation is finished) and can’t roll or do something else (depends on the character)

This is just shooter game basics for a lot of games its ok bc this game doesnt explain any of this lmao

[graceful dawn]

Why does the combo PULL > AIR MELEE > BETA sometimes fail to connect?

[ashen nebula]

First off

Do you know what wake up frames are

[hushed stone]

Of course the Tamaki main defends the characters furrent state.

People who main meta characters will NEVER admit that the character needs nerfs.

I switched the GAMMA and Special Action simply so such a powerful move can't be exploited by Amajiki himself or Monoma's.

Monoma's can't spam the cannon if it isn't the Gamma anymore. 🤷🏽‍♀️

[fathom mason]

Yeah bc ya nerfing stuff that dont make sense so womp womp

[fathom mason]

The idea ofmonoma spamming anything is literally bc monomamhas infinite cooldowns so fixing that fixes way more lol but yeah ig ☠️ ☠️

Using me maining him as a negative for ur horrendous takes is another never cook again moment

He's literally balanced esp w the fact he has longer animations for all his moves like cope ig ☠️

Like I get it I like tamaki alot but i was so genuine when i saif he’s honestly really well designed as far as being a strike. He has draw backs that stop him from just wiping a team solo like esp with his alpha having a slower rate of fire and a very rollable aim in grab. You have to think when you use him or even just change play-styles like thats really cool and none of his playstyles are over the top broken like cannon nerf? Sure ig ? Its still a really good finisher and a long range strike enji gamma

I also play strike denki and said multiple times bro is broken and thats just how it is so im not gonna glaze everything ☠️

[lyric tundra]

For the meta? No.. simply because Tamaki isn't "broken" compared to the current meta

Don't get me wrong.. he is a bit broken but not compared to what's going on in this game right now

Present mic, red kiri, Iida, Ibara, Red Todo, Rapid Bakugo and the list can go on.. they're all more broken if I'm being honest

The only reason Tamaki can compete is because he's a grab character that can guarantee a true combo and unlike Aizawa, he's less punishable.. but tbh Shinso is still better at what he does

[hushed stone]

Ibara and broken in the same sentence immediately shush. 😂

Not Ibara's fault that you underestimate her. That's on you for stepping in close and getting comfortable fighting Ibaras.

You slipped up, so eat that B damage and live. It's not like she can chase you down unlike and Tamaki!!!!!!!

[light cloak]

Broken? 🤣
Ibara?
In the same sentence? 🤣

[turbid scarab]

Ah yes the character with a gamma that moves faster than our roll- is an immediate death once down-

A beta with tracking similar to red dabi beta. One beta that can take all your gp and move at insane speeds making it hard ti even hit him. Mobility not to mention. Pair that with tuning and you get an even better experience, while your enemy suffers even more.

Why is Ibara even in that list, without Blue Ochaco and yellow ochaco being the top listed ones....

All her skills are idle- which means she becomes a training dummy for a second (more if she betas.)

And gammas

Literally i dont get what part of her is broken other than....her alphas can be oppressive and hit multiple people and she can insta-rez which- mind you is not very good without reinforced revive. Getting her PUR's is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Surefire of saying you underestimated an Ibara and regretted it and came here to cope...also. Rapid toga should be mentioned. Ik you said the list goes on, but shes a very well a noticeable one.

And shes been a character in the game since release...

[lyric tundra]

Remember I’m speaking at a “high level” not the average brainless bots I encounter in this game on a daily

If you doubt Ibara is over tuned then you’re prob just another average joe

[lyric tundra]

I roll that beta way more that Dabi’s so I’m not to sure what you’re saying about the tracking… the only time Tamaki’s are a prob is if they hit their grabs.. if you experience problems outside the grab combos then we can’t see eye to eye

[lyric tundra]

Also Yellow Ochako is brainless and overturned but tbh her skill ceiling is low so once you learn to roll her and punish her she’s kinda just… cooked

[light cloak]

I definitely play her at a “high level”😭 and yeah she’s overturned but broken? Not nearly as much as other characters in the game

[lyric tundra]

True she can get punished but beyond just her insane alphas which is all you need really.. the rest of her hit can stay level 1.. 2 rezzes??? And her alphas perma knock you back? Good luck getting close to a good Ibara

[lyric tundra]

Really? What’s your platform and IGN?

[lyric tundra]

Ibara with a good team is just as good as a Kurogiri or Cementos into a good team or even better

and also I agree with rapid toga.. I just didn’t name every single character that’s overtuned because it’s not at the top of my dome

And what you said about blue ochako I agree but I’m not sure how the knock down nerfs affected her combos so idk if she’s still “broken” compared to the current meta

[turbid scarab]

I play pc too and he says "if you play at a high lvl" then what am i dealing with seeing red dekus running me down like im trash he just sweeped up

[lyric tundra]

My point is every character has their broken thing going for them.. some more than others.. so you can spend hours naming every reason why Tamaki is broken and should be nerfed but realistically that’s every character except a few exceptions

[turbid scarab]

Along the way too

[lyric tundra]

Just because Redku is broken doesn’t make Ibara less broken.. she still passes that meta threshold

And Ibaras can diff Redkus… the knock down alphas make her able to do that to anyone

[turbid scarab]

My point is that i play ibara even in high levels just not a breeze of an experience thats fs

[turbid scarab]

But one thing I know is

Ibara does well when she has a good team

But I want to be able to use her in any comp and I do just that anyways

does it go well-

I make sure that it does or sometimes I randomly just start to suck

Hate it when I have to be the one to carry thats for sure. Because if they are not the ones protecting me which often times as a solo q player I know randoms will not bother

Randoms that see an Ibara on their team often times just leave which I hate. Alot

Leaving me alone. Ibara feels more like a mental character to persist to play her and also PICKING her out of all the characters that can fly around and stuff.

[lyric tundra]

Fair enough… she does lack the ability to get away that Tamaki has but let’s be real.. at a competitive level we’re 3 stacking so Ibara would serve more value than Tamaki in a scrims or tourney level

The 2 rezzes is what boosted her so high too ngl

[turbid scarab]

but the question is- does she live long enough to do that

They increased her range BECAUSE she had to GET in there to even use it

Sometimes I also feel like her range being her strongest thing is a lie.

When we have deku sniping from what feels like across the map and my alpha cannot reach him

I've had that happen to me NUMEROUS times

Ibara may look like shes broken but your experience playing her vs going against her differs greatly as well as playing her in ranked vs unranked

But at least shes more functional than kurogiri I'll say that much

[turbid scarab]

Oh right might I also add that- its assuming you are even alive to rez said teammate

[lyric tundra]

I know 2 good Ibaras that impressed me and changed my perspective on Ibara. That’s a guy named ThornMaiden and Shadow (pc players) and the thing about Ibara is that getting close could back fire because one grab will turn that fight around. I think she has enough in her kit to keep her alive and with space hop or wall runner it’s even crazier

[turbid scarab]

Well Thorn Maiden inspired me since the game release

[lyric tundra]

The day I saw Thorn Maiden 3v1 before they could even get close was the day I knew Ibara at a high level is busted

[fathom mason]

Forgot about that user

[turbid scarab]

So I played her since- albeit I am as good as them- and there are times where the team of randoms actually acknowledged that I was carrying tf out of them. But what differs between them and me despite playing her for so long- as that my aim decides to kill itself....not to flex 💔

That and I get enemy hungry focusing characters I despise with a burning passion

chasing them across the map for that one kill

I believe thats called tunnel vision..

[fathom mason]

Its called get out the game

[turbid scarab]

^ I have to agree with this one the game sucks.

[fathom mason]

🦀 ✨

Check out these claws

[hushed stone]

Sorry to but in, but I'm sure you also know of Windjammer?

[fathom mason]

Yeah

I seen videos

Its always nice to see people push a character beyond the expectations

[lyric tundra]

I think the game keeps power creeping and every character needs to be tuned down

[lyric tundra]

Never heard of him. Is he PC or console?

[fathom mason]

Yeah strike shiggy did not deserve this

[hushed stone]

Yeah, his analysis really show his in depth understanding of Ibara as a whole.

[turbid scarab]

But the dopamine and the levels of adrenaline you get from Gamma'ing someone is addicting

[hushed stone]

He's on XBox. He also has a channel under the same name.

He has an in depth analysis of all his matches in his descriptions.

[lyric tundra]

Ngl I quit the game shortly before cross platform and just came back so I don’t know any console players

[hushed stone]

I wouldn't say he's the best Ibara main, but he is for sure the smartest.

[lyric tundra]

I’ll have to check him out

[turbid scarab]

I can respect it greatly thats fs

But for now I am IbaraofTheGamma way and Ill stick with that

I do want to talk to windjammer tho

[hushed stone]

Go on Reddit and make a post about him

[light cloak]

Anyway back to football

[hushed stone]

He'll for sure respond there since he's super active on the Ultra Rumble subreddit.

[turbid scarab]

Eugh reddit

Also its JP getting these characters nerfed

I still have this lmao

[hushed stone]

Then I need to know who's complaining about Mt. Lady? 😂

[turbid scarab]

that

idek

she can only work well in giant form

if she small then its....redundant

unless ur some players

[hushed stone]

If they really want to nerf Mt. Lady, then nerf the properties of her moves in giant form.

Because most of the time, she's small and she's very combo dependant.

[hot bone]

So what are tamaki's best combos?

[green stump]

Alpha grab > melee x2 > beta

Alpha grab > melee x1 > SpA > Alpha/CritAlph

If youre in the air then the best combo is Alpha grab > Air Melee > Alpha

[hot bone]

Thank you

[hot bone]

What's the most consistent one

[turbid scarab]

Likely the first and second ones

[green stump]

All of them

[turbid scarab]

Cuz of wakeups

[green stump]

I know, the combos i listed are the bnbs of tamaki combos

[novel sorrel]

Guysss I jst got monoma what r some good tunings pls

[ornate gate]

Wrong channel my guy

[novel sorrel]

Sorry I mean tamaki

I have his casual wear

All of it

[ornate gate]

Either the base fit or his dangerous fit imo

Blue/Red H and Yellow/Green H

[fathom mason]

One time or two i crit without max range

[elfin zodiac]

Tamaki gameplay at it's finest

miku miku beam until everything dies

[fathom mason]

Exactly

[hot bone]

Idk how i did that combo but

Also my 3rd left while I was literally gathering res cards

Toga died twice

[twilit raptor]

This character beta feels like

[hot bone]

What's a good level up path?

[elfin zodiac]

normally i go, 4 beta, 4 alpha, then max beta

from then you could max alpha or level gamma

[hot bone]

Cool

Thanks!

[elfin zodiac]

🫡

[hot bone]

He insisted on fighting me and died for it

Bro stole my beta and REALLY wanted to use it on me

Ended up winning too

[worthy seal]

I personally do alpha 4, beta 9, gamma 4, then max whatever you like more.

[brittle yacht]

I totally get that but I feel like if monoma himself isn't dealt with regarding his special action reload then we end up with a dead by daylight situation where we can't have some cool perks because of nurse/blight

interesting changes though

[hushed stone]

I made nerfs for him as well in the Monoma channel

So I'm not soloing Tamaki here.

Don't worry.

[fathom mason]

Never cook again the sequel?!

Or did they cook and create a delicious meal

[worthy seal]

Probably a sequel I fear

But I'm too lazy to check if I'm being honest

[potent herald]

A lil research I found idk if anyone knows about this "You can hit two people with tamakis alpha when they are in a straight line" "At the last part I tried to show you can do it even with the enhanced alpha but it failed, I did do it in a real match tho"

[fathom mason]

I already knew this but yes he can indeed perice through a target :3

[hot bone]

SWORDFISH

[sage crest]

i hope u like seafood

[fathom mason]

Time to eat some books

[thorn ginkgo]

(volume warning)
But I love how dumb this laser is.

^ and this was back at the start of the season but didn't think to ever post it here

Though combo wise, my favorite is probably alpha pull -> melee -> special action -> Alpha.
Feels clean when you get em with the snipe mid-air.

[hot bone]

Indeed very satisfying

My go too is usually alpha melee melee beta

I'm not too consistent on the midair alpha yet

[twilit raptor]

Perception + trance blow tamaki must be the most homeless build I’ve seen this game after
Space hop + embrittlement aizawa

[hot bone]

Ohhh it's all over the screen 😩

[zenith vector]

what's wrong with perception trance blow?

[twilit raptor]

I had a teammate tamaki with that and I legit could do nothing but watch and feel bad for the toga who tried to escape from tamaki and assault shiggy with that duo of tuning 😭

It must be H E L L

[zenith vector]

lol trance blow is one the reasons people hate shinso

[twilit raptor]

Ofc
It all returns to shinso hatred

[hot bone]

https://tenor.com/view/awful-idea-grinch-i-have-an-idea-a-wonderful-idea-gif-15543357

Maybe I'll try this

[twilit raptor]

Dawg

You can freely gamma beam him and make him free food for your mirio

[hot bone]

I just hope I've got the shinso data for it

Cuz I dont have shinso

What combos should I use now that I have trance blow?

[twilit raptor]

Alpha grab melee then either another alpha or beta

[hot bone]

So the same combos I usually use then

[zenith vector]

i main shinso 😭

im not hating

im saying that's what people tell me they hate shinso

he's an amzing chracter

[twilit raptor]

I also main him LMAO

[zenith vector]

W

what skin do you use to tune

i use cyber hero villain cuz i dont have ua uni

i didnt grind that bp

[hot bone]

I hate shinso but only in the game

Because I actually wanna play the game

[zenith vector]

?

[zenith vector]

who do you play?

[hot bone]

Tamaki

But i also sometimes play compress and strike dabi

[zenith vector]

why we complaining abt shinso with the tamaki beta tracking?

[hot bone]

It's not THAT bad

Especially when everyone already expects you to use beta

[zenith vector]

hm

from what i've seen

and what i've used the tracking on it is stupid

but he's fun to play

[twilit raptor]

I use the yuei costume one cuz don’t have the cyber hero

Even tho the cyber hero costume isn’t the best either

I kinda wish he gets a new costume with Yellow and Blue special tuning tbh

[zenith vector]

think the ua is his best tbh

[thorn ginkgo]

I always felt hopeless after I'm hit by a Tamaki with embrittlement, I'm just sitting there like; "well, there goes my health/shield."

[twilit raptor]

Perception + Trance blow makes me may as well accept my fate

[thorn ginkgo]

I used to run perception, it was nice, but I didn't think about trance blow. I preferred strike Kendo's tuning, or Kota finder, or anything of that sort.
However my latest costume has just been warp heal + Kota finder since I find myself just in the back and supporting my team, like I'll wait a short distance away, wait for them to take a hit and then aim my cannon at them as a "get out of jail free card + 200 DMG"

And normally I don't do trance blows because I love Alpha pull -> melee -> special -> alpha

Them getting blown back and forced into cannon or forced to pull back

[twilit raptor]

I think trance blow perception is also a very useful supportive combination

On a offensive side tho

Especially if you have a mirio who BULLY the opponent

[thorn ginkgo]

True true, but it's the equivalent of running embrittlement or sisterly on hawks, it's about principal of not running the nastiest combo for fairness in my eyes

Then again with Monoma, I'm unsure it matters all that much

[twilit raptor]

I run wall runner and Pu crusher anyways so lmaooo

[thorn ginkgo]

I had someone really sell me on PU crusher, but I always have the issue of forgetting I have PU when the time comes up, or I lose my shield and then get evaporated so quickly it makes little difference (or was thrown miles into storm)
I do occasionally switch it on though, for the rare occasion it does work out for me.

Wall runner is fun though

[hot bone]

Can no longer beam carelessly after mirio drops

[dusky sluice]

Do you guys upgrade the alpha or the beta first ? I see some ppl upgrading the beta but isnt the alpha more useful overall ?

[boreal knoll]

I kinda flip-flop between the two. I try to get both to 4 and then decide that match whether I want more damage with grab alpha -> melee -> melee -> beta by upgrading beta or more poke by upgrading alpha. If I notice I’m getting a lot of grabs and getting opportunities to do the combo in a match I’ll go for beta and if I’m running away or setting up for teammates with grabbing more I’ll do alpha

[dusky sluice]

ohhh thats rly nice I think I'll do the same thank you

[boreal knoll]

Also I am a big nerd so I wrote down some combos to use for Tamaki when he first came out.

All Quirks are at level 9. No Assault teammates on enemy team and only one Strike character (Tamaki himself)

Grab alpha, jab, special action, alpha (non-tipper) = 291 (With Embrittlement active after first jab. Useful if beta is on cooldown)

Grab alpha, jab, jab, multihit jab three hits, beta = 376 (With Embrittlement active after first jab. Combo works more consistently on enemies that were grabbed while they were airborne and not too close to the ground. Can make opponent airborne on command if you grab right before you hit the ground so you’re less reliant on enemies putting themselves in the air and can instead force them to be in the air)

Grab alpha, jab, jab, beta = 304 (With Embrittlement active after first jab)

Use in the air
Air grab alpha, special action , alpha - 233

Use when no special action and in the air
Air grab alpha, beta - 231

Air grab alpha, air melee, alpha - 234

These are all values with tuning on that increase damage as well I'm not home right now so I can't check my build but I imagine the general numbers are the same in the sense that grab alpha, jab, jab, melee will do more damage than grab alpha, jab, special action, alpha

[sage crest]

I like to do A4 B4 G4 B9

Then max whichever is higher from random card pickups next

A4 is cool cuz size up and extra charge

G9 is cool because duration

[dusky sluice]

alr alr thanks guys

[thorn ginkgo]

I normally go G4 B4 G9 A4 B9 A9
I'm the type to sit behind buildings and charge my cannons towards my team when they're hit, to both get a free hit and give them a "get out of jail free card" when needed.
I rely on gamma way more than I should

I mean, if they run, I got the free kill switch

Play cheap tricks, get cheap shotted

[ashen nebula]

levelling alpha to max first allows you to do a guard break

but beta is just super easy to spam and has stupider tracking than twice's gamma so

along with armour

so people can just spam that and probably win a decent amount of engangements

[dusky sluice]

yeah thats true tho I do enjoy doing alpha crits or grabs more

Also I barely even use beta outside of combos or chasing

[sage crest]

i like to mash beta on everything bc the tracking is stupid

and also invisibilty is fun

[boreal knoll]

I try to beta if I can guarantee into beta if I can because it does have decent end lag plus a lot of characters have moves they can do to counter beta if they react fast enough

[hot bone]

It's satisfying to instantly k.o a down with gamma

[pseudo ore]

Me mentioned

[boreal knoll]

This is the build I used for these combos

[thorn ginkgo]

"Look Gary, there I am!"

[pseudo ore]

https://tenor.com/view/taiga-clapping-applause-smile-anime-gif-16235932

[cedar carbon]

Why does grab into 2 melee sometime knocks down the opponent?

Sometimes I can follow up with beta, sometimes that happens

idk what I'm doing wrong

[boreal knoll]

There's a mechanic called down power that's the game's way of making sure people can't go from full health to dead in one combo. Knockdown value goes up to 500 and most attacks have a down power of at least 50 or above and it goes away after a few seconds of not being hit. You're probably grabbing people that were hit recently so they have some knockdown value on them so your melees put them in that state where they can't take damage since getting 500 knockdown power instantly puts you in a state where you can't take damage

[cedar carbon]

but I'm trying on training

and sometimes I can manage to do grab into 2 melees into beta into knockdown

and sometimes I do grab into 2 melee and the second melee knocks them down

I make sure to try the combo after they recover from a knockdown so I'm not sure what's messing with it

[boreal knoll]

There's a difference between a knockdown and a hard knockdown. When a character is flashing white they're in a hard knockdown state which means they cannot get hit and then there's regular knockdowns when just make the character fly into the air and can either recover in the air or not press anything

And character's invincibility time when they get up from a hard knockdown stays active for a few seconds after they get back up unless they attack

[cedar carbon]

yeah I know

ummm I'm gonna send a video so you can see what I mean

[cedar carbon]

ok this is an example of where it fails

and this is an example of where it succeeds

I did both one after another but I couldn't send the full video lol

both were perfect health

untouched before my combo

[boreal knoll]

Ooh I know what it is

Trance Blow messes up his combos sometimes

[cedar carbon]

ohhh

boooo

I'm just gonna change it to kendo's tuning then

[boreal knoll]

Yeah Trance Blow along with making it harder for the enemy to move and see it makes them get knocked down easier

[boreal knoll]

That could be a fun build idea for a 15% damage increase when you melee someone. There’s better red special tunings you could put on but tune for fun not for meta 15% damage increase on melee with Embrittlement and Iron Fist is based 💪

[thorn ginkgo]

Ye, that's just trance below.
It makes it so the next thing that hits them, that has knockdown power, immediately forces them into a recovery state.
Its best just to do alpha pull -> melee -> beta for full DMG
Though it makes it so his more fancy combos are less damaging.
For example, without Shinso tuning;

[ashen nebula]

we're over a month into this guy's release and we still got people doing this combo 💔 😭

[boreal knoll]

I thought people knew you could recover in the air before beta hits by now

[thorn ginkgo]

Oh I know, I just like how flashy it looks

Worst case scenario I could always double back with the 2nd beta or gamma if they attempt to run.
I just like that special action knock back

[boreal knoll]

I meant the people fighting Tamaki because I imagine a lot of people have been hit by that combo by now

[boreal knoll]

The Special Action knockback is pretty nice if you back up enough you could hit a tipper alpha afterwards

[wheat thicket]

So i just go Tamaki what's the need to know basics

[boreal knoll]

Alpha grab, melee, melee, beta is a reliable way to deal good damage

Special Action into two betas is basically a free way to escape fights

Gamma is extremely good at finishing people off just tap it and they explode

Learn when it’s best to use the grab alpha and regular alpha as they’re both good in different situations

Beta has stupid good tracking so it’s not a bad idea to use it if someone is trying to escape and your alphas are on cooldown

[boreal knoll]

Also combo list for Tamaki

[wheat thicket]

Thank you

[boreal knoll]

#1308720973289095168 message @young compass So is this incredibly unlikely to pull off because of the alpha knock down value?

[young compass]

well the alpha knockdown makes it so normally you can only do one 12(3)

just if you hit a red kendo in her beta it kinda ignores a lot of knockdown that would be placed on her

idk if it's heavily reduced or actually zero

but she takes more than 2.5 times less knockdown at least

the next thing I sent now are the combos you can do against not red kendo

imma send it here too ig

[boreal knoll]

I need to see how much this does with my build now

Kinda sucks that it's really dependent on if you can hit the enemy in the air without alpha but still crazy damage if you can

[young compass]

yeah lol

[boreal knoll]

I've seen no other Tamakis do this combo I feel like I found a sacred relic with this one

[young compass]

also remember first one is a manual melee cancel and the timing is a bit more tricky than nejires, but you'll figure it out

[young compass]

hahaha yup it do be very nice :3

[boreal knoll]

Yeah I'll have to learn his melee cancel in general to see if I can find some new combos with it. Probably not but it'd be fun to experiment

Yes I am a nerd how could you tell

[young compass]

good luck ^^

[young compass]

I think it'll be nice for doing this combo with alpha

which I just confirmed to be possible

[ornate gate]

I KNEW I WASNT TRIPPING. I remember accidently doing that once and never knew how to do it again

[young compass]

yup, they just need to hover high enough above ground, you can set them up that way by grabbing someone out of the air or by jumping before pulling in a target at similar elevation

[young compass]

or by using melee chain downhill, that's another way, so for that you might want to pull then move around them while they are still stunned for a better angle

[silver warren]

Check out these claws

[modern hollow]

What’s a good tuning skin for him?

[boreal knoll]

Honestly with One For All Deku coming out his base outfit is unironically a good option but if you're wanting to tune a PUR Festival Outfit (Fancy) and Casual Wear (Villain Style) are his best outfits PUR wise

[modern hollow]

Have a pic with the default build?

[boreal knoll]

You would do Embrittlement and Acceleration

Acceleration can make some combos that were untrue true

[modern hollow]

What about the other tunings for the reds?

[boreal knoll]

I'd tune for Special Slots mainly unless you wanna use Fixer

[modern hollow]

Yeah fair enough I’ll prob build his base skin tbh just for now thanks.

Something like this?

[boreal knoll]

Yeah something like that works

Now whenever you melee someone you give the enemy a defense down and yourself move speed and more combos

Do keep in mind that at level 4 Acceleration has a cooldown of 3 minutes and lasts for 30 seconds

[modern hollow]

Ok I’ll remember that

If I ever get around to it I’ll prob build one of his purs

But for now I like this budget build

[young compass]

oh it has a cooldown, was hoping it would be duration based :c

maybe that's still good though cause you get a full 30s idk tbh

this might be hella silly at lvl 11 though

[modern hollow]

It just sucks he doesnt have a villain yellow and hero blue on a PU skin

[young compass]

yeah for sure

when he gets it it's gonna be real good

[modern hollow]

Yeah funny enough that default skin may just be the best till he gets one

[young compass]

maybe, I haven't gotten to try acceleration yet

I think the pur perception builds are likely also still good in the meantime, as well as festival fancy for embrittlement

[green stump]

can tamaki still land the critical alpha in his combos?

[grizzled trellis]

My glorious shy Suneater. I got champions and earned an A+ rank

[young compass]

GJ!

[grizzled trellis]

Thx!

[livid pawn]

I got Tamaki recently from the anniversary banner. How do you guys level him up typically? 👉👈

[ashen nebula]

alpha 9 I do but if you're not confident in your aim you can do beta 9

because it has stupid tracking and plays the game for you

[young compass]

I split level alpha and beta 4-4-1, 9-9-1 in either order really

also I'm pc with high fps so gamma is kinda useless for me, it might be good to invest a bit into it at lower fps though

[livid pawn]

I played him a bit and you weren't lying about the Beta lmao

Glad I got him, seems fun.

[modern hollow]

I really like amajiki so far

His default skin has been working really well for me

Does he have any good PUR skins?

I was thinking of building one

[boreal knoll]

Casual Wear (Villain Style) was in last season's Pro License so you might not have it

[modern hollow]

I have both

Which ones better in your opinion?

[boreal knoll]

Festival Fancy

Embrittlement and Fixer can work since there's 5 damage slots

[modern hollow]

Ok cool

[modern hollow]

Ok how’s this look?

[boreal knoll]

Looks good to me

I see you're going a lot into beta damage

[modern hollow]

I really like his beta

It’s his move I use the most

[boreal knoll]

It does a bunch of damage

Do you know of his combos?

[modern hollow]

Some of them

Do you have all of them somewhere I can check out

[boreal knoll]

Yep I made the list actually because I’m a massive nerd

[modern hollow]

Oh do you have it somewhere?

I’d love to really learn this character

He is so fun

[boreal knoll]

Tamaki Amajiki

Grab alpha -> Melee 1 -> Special Action -> Alpha (non-tipper) = 291 (With Embrittlement active after first Melee. Useful if beta is on cooldown)

Grab alpha -> Melee 1 -> Melee 2 -> Melee 3 3 hits -> Beta = 376 (With Embrittlement active after first Melee. Combo works more consistently on enemies that were grabbed while they were airborne and not too close to the ground. Can make opponent airborne on command if you grab right before you hit the ground so you’re less reliant on enemies putting themselves in the air and can instead force them to be in the air)

Grab alpha -> Melee 1 -> Melee 2 -> Beta = 304 (With Embrittlement active after first Melee)

Note: Use these combos if you grab someone in the air

Air grab alpha -> Special Action -> Alpha = 233

Note: Use these combos when Special Action isn’t available

Air grab alpha -> beta = 231

Air grab alpha -> Air melee -> Alpha (non-tipper) = 234 (With Embrittlement active after Air Melee)

I included my build in case your damage numbers are different

There’s also air grab alpha -> air melee -> beta but unsure on if that’s true or not

[modern hollow]

Thanks

I love this character

[boreal knoll]

He’s super fun

[modern hollow]

What are the jabs?

The melees?

[boreal knoll]

Yeah just melees

I forgot to reword that part of the list thanks for the reminder

[modern hollow]

All good

[olive fulcrum]

What does that look like if you can show me

[olive fulcrum]

What tuning you got on it, you’re so pro

[boreal knoll]

I am not pro by any means I am real bad at this game. But I actually use this build because I didn't wanna use Hero Souls

[olive fulcrum]

I have that one too but you’re saying the festival one is the new better one

[boreal knoll]

Both are good but Festival is better since it doesn't have a green yeah

[olive fulcrum]

I use the one with uhhh 1hp

[boreal knoll]

Willpower is good but Embrittlement is his best tuning

[olive fulcrum]

Dang I see I guess I gotta update it

[young compass]

1hp and perception or something else? cause perception still competes with embrittlement imo, so if you have a perception build already you don't need to change imo

[past cliff]

how do some people move his gamma so fast?

[boreal knoll]

Console and PC players at 60 FPS can move it faster than PC players at 120+ FPS

[hot bone]

Should I try the rapid deku tuning on tamaki?

I alr got an outfit with a rapid slot thanks to my perception build

[young compass]

if you have ofa deku I definitely would at least try it, it makes the funny grab melee special beta true for once and in general it should make your combos faster so you get beamed less while doing them and it should make chasing / running from people a bit easier, I haven't gotten to try it myself but I simulated it using two blue cards, it should just be a nice to have type thing from what I'm expecting

[hot bone]

Ill probably try it then

Does it affect gamma at all?

Or would it?

[young compass]

uhm I think it does

with double blue card gamme was super fast

[young compass]

.

for clarification I meant to charge but prolly to move as well

might actually make me start using gamma on 240hz if I roll ofa deku

hmmm I'm testing rn and I'm not sure about the moving the gamma part

ok no I do thinkk it feels faster

idk >.<

[hot bone]

Lol

[hot bone]

Ok yeah its pretty fun to use

Didn't even get good lvls that game either

[young compass]

yay

my desire to roll for ofa deku is steadily growing

will do my other wishes first though

[hot bone]

Do it. Join the dark side.

[young compass]

but for that I gotta do the play 30 games beginner mission when I get home

[hot bone]

Think of the tunings

[young compass]

yeah lol

I think I want the tuning more than the character lol

[hot bone]

The beginner mission quest is broken

[young compass]

though I'm also keeping up with the combo crafting too

[young compass]

for everyone or just some?

I thought it was only some people affected

and so far it was working for me

7/9 rn with two missions left

[hot bone]

It's the last quest that's broken

[young compass]

oh :<

the 30 games then?

[hot bone]

Rn I've completed all of them but the "complete all step 3 missions" still says 8/9

[young compass]

gotcha

[hot bone]

If its only some people that sucks 😭

[young compass]

I think my friend was able to do hers though iirc

[young compass]

yeah 😭

[hot bone]

Gee I hope they fix it (they won't)

[young compass]

you can read in #ultra-rumble-posts that they said they're aware of it and looking for a fix, so if they announce it that publicly they tend to also follow up (at some point)

[boreal knoll]

He super fun definitely recommend

[hot bone]

How tf do I fight a froppy

A skilled froppy

One interrupted my looting and I had like 9 rainbows that I couldn't use

Because I couldn't get away

And it pmo

[young compass]

if you show that you're able to grab her she'll need to play way more carefully

that is if you can land grabs on her

else it's beta and pray ig

[hot bone]

She jumps around too much

[young compass]

special action could also randomly hit her depending on the situation

[young compass]

gotcha

[hot bone]

Anyways

[young compass]

I haven't had the matchup since the air movement change so idk how mich harder it is now

[hot bone]

The deku tuning combined with the beta speed boost makes you really fast

[young compass]

hahaha yup :>

[stark turret]

Just pitied this guy today he's pretty fun

[boreal knoll]

Tamaki my beloved ❤️

[stark turret]

I hated him, until I unlocked him now I adore him 😭

A lot of combos I learned from all characters including Tamaki are from walking folks either doing it on me or from clips.

That's why I know how to do this despite me not playing as Tamaki a lot until recently

[boreal knoll]

I think that's only true with Acceleration but it is nice damage

Also I think you can fit a second melee in there

Which combos do you know for him actually?

[stark turret]

Just the ones I used in the clips I sent 😂

[stark turret]

You can't anymore because it forces knockback now if you use SpA after

[boreal knoll]

Ah okay
