    I saw the Quick Look and I have one question!
     
    How do you change the character in the middle of the air juggle and keep comboing? 
     
    It has been driving me nuts!!
     
    P.S. .... I like Street Fighter IV better.
     
    Granted it's a different game so you can't really compare but man... waaaaaaaaaay too many things happening here....

    Have you tried using the assist buttons? I haven't actually played the game myself, but that's what makes the most sense.

    @MooseyMcMan: It's either it didn't work or I didn't press it hard enough? I don't know. When things get in the air, I kinda panic because I feel like I'm running out of time....

    Press up, left or right and the special button in the air.

    @nohthink: The Special button which is your launcher is what you use to tag during an air juggle. Simply press any direction + the Special button and you will knock the enemy in that direction and tag your next character in.

    @StarvingGamer: So that means you have no control over who you switch too first? Seems kinda odd, but that way also seems less hard than hitting the assist buttons.

    i thought it was...you hit them in the air and then do low, medium, high attacks and then hit them with the special and it will knock you out and send your next guy in...repeat to get your 3rd guy in....repeat to knock them to the ground.
     
    How do you counter it tho?  Playin some guys that deflect the special attack and it sends my character flying across the screen.

    @handlas: If you just hit S without pressing a direction, you just knock the enemy into the ground without tagging your character. In order to tag you have to hit a joystick direction up, down, left or right + S. The other player can counter this by guessing right and pressing the same direction + S. Right and left count as the same direction for the purpose of countering.

    seems like you can do the combo...slam them to the ground...and then do the combo a 2nd time.  Either that or I'm missing hte point where you can get up fast enough to prevent it.

    It slams them down and bounces them back up as your next character tags in to continue the combo. Have you played the game yet?

    You just started and it doesn't sound like you've ever played a fighting game aside from SF4.  Keep playing and you'll get it eventually.

    I'd argue it's more assholish to try and correct someone with the wrong information.

    I can't get your method to work. When I do down+S in midair, it slams them in to the ground; they don't pop back up at all.

    @NickDynmo: It works.  You also get a full bar of super.  left or right gets you a half a bar, up gives you nothing. 
     
    it kinda ticked me off when Jeff said that the air-combo counter is a "guessing game", because there's a lot of reasoning to it.  an aggressive player or someone who needs bar badly would probably risk it and press down, while someone who has plenty of bar and just wants to secure their damage would press up.  While defending against an air combo, you actually need to read your situation and figure out what direction the opponent is most likely going to press.

    Alright, I've done it twice now and I can't figure out how I did it. I'm doing the same thing every time, and sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
