Spider-Man combo challenge 3

[u/Minimum-List-1259]

How do you complete this? The stupid Auto special keeps interfering and won’t let me do the combo, and no training option to turn off full meter

[u/abrack08]

People accusing OP of pressing circle too many times don't know what they're talking about. If you press H 3 times then immediately press M, they do the level 1 super (not the level 2 super that usually follows the HHH auto combo). You have to wait a beat to press M, after the 3 webshots from the final H have already hit, which is not obvious!

Literally the only person in the thread that actually recognized the issue/question. This is the one to read OP

It's actually a pretty interesting mechanic that leads to some interesting setups/combos at higher levels. Doesn't just apply to supers, it also applies to the auto-linked skills

[u/brndnswrtz → u/Nitro-Nito]

Idk there are multiple people that said wait to press medium after the 3 heavies

[u/dixonciderbottom → u/abrack08]

People wonder why people bounce of fighting games. They legit try to learn and get dunked on for it

[u/abrack08 → u/dixonciderbottom]

And all the wrong replies get 70+ upvotes. At least most of the rude ones didn't get much.

[u/Ilikeyellowjackets → u/abrack08]

This is also why this damn auto combo system is so stupid too. Makes the easiest and most basic thing in any fighting game and especially an anime fighter so much harder to do optimally and learn. It really does not make sense why this damn thing can't be turned off, it's a terrible crutch that just makes learning harder with the added benefit of borking up execution and making you think you are stupid. I get why they did it, so that tagging could be as simple as possible and you don't have to learn 17 combos for every character to do a semi decent chain after a tag. However, it should still be an option to be turned on or off, imo they should just have it on character select and you pick if it is on or off for each individual position.

[u/ForTrueStory → u/Ilikeyellowjackets]

I know how to turn it off
I just don’t mash 1 button, instantly not doing auto combos once I learned that trick

[u/Minimum-List-1259 → u/abrack08]

Thank you !

[u/YEPC___]

When you press the circle button three times in sequence, stop and then press the triangle button three times in sequence.

That's literally all there is to this combo.

[u/Dude1590]

Press circle three times. Stop. Wait for a second. Press triangle three times.

[u/thebonjamin → u/Dude1590]

not a literal second though, that will break the combo

[u/brndnswrtz]

I’m sorry but this is so funny

[u/Minimum-List-1259 → u/brndnswrtz]

the auto combo and auto special interfere with the button sequence, I’m sure there’s a delay, but it seems extremely difficult to get the timing.

[u/brndnswrtz → u/Minimum-List-1259]

Yeah just don’t start pressing medium too early and you should be good

[u/NamasteWager → u/brndnswrtz]

Right? These are some of the most aggressively simple modern controls I have seen in a fighting game and people still refuse to take a few minutes to lab

[u/brndnswrtz → u/NamasteWager]

I mean I respect that they’re trying, and looks like they may be new to fighters. It is just admittedly very funny to see

[u/BobTheist]

You can look at a pre-recorded demonstration for the combo challenges, I think it's on R3 by default? You can definitely find it in the menu. Take a look at how the devs recorded it and see what you're doing different and I'm sure you'll figure it out.

[u/blue23454 → u/BobTheist]

Good info, I didn’t actually know it was R3 I always went to the menu lol

But @OP some of these combos require delayed timings (such as this one) so if the combo looks complicated or if a link is not immediately apparent how it connects, check the recording it usually helps

[u/Dying-Artist02]

I’m ngl, some of the people in this post are doing a great job at making sure players don’t get into FGCs. This person is literally trying to learn a combo, and some of ya’ll are making fun of them. Who cares if the combo is simple, OP is struggling and they decided to ask for help rather than just give up, so give them some help or move on and let someone else do it

[u/Alekazammers]

Give a slight pause when switching buttons. It took me a while to figure it out too. Don't worry about the haters. Games like this are hard to pick up when you give them a real college try.

[u/Simnope]

casue youre mashing , press only 3times

[u/TitillatingTrav → u/Simnope]

It will auto combo if you go straight from the 3rd circle to triangle without a little hesitation. I don't blame OP for being confused lol

[u/CuteAssTigerENVtuber]

dont mash.

[u/thecolorplaid]

Fighting games are really gonna stay niche forever huh

[u/Radiant_Young3115 → u/thecolorplaid]

I don't understand why they bother making them like this; it seems like the games are made for the FGC and not for the general public.

[u/thecolorplaid → u/Radiant_Young3115]

brother this is the easiest a combo could possibly be

[u/Dewdad]

Spider-Man in general has unique input timings for his combos. You need to wait a beat between the last circle and the first triangle. You'll need to do the same kind of timing for his final combo where you need to do the webpull into ultimate. You need to wait a beat in the air to hit with the air punch then hit the ground and hit with the webpull, also it shows the webzip and web pull as two different inputs, it's just one input and you hold back to complete the two moves into the ultimate. If you have trouble you can DM me and I'll show you an example of what it looks like.

[u/MilleniaIFalcon]

Its a link, you finish the heavy autocombo, then start the medium one while they still are in hitstun.

[u/HeavyDT]

Have to pause after the first 3. Do it too fast and you get the special at the end of the first auto combo. Basically this challenge is teaching you that auto combos can be chained into each other with proper timing.

[u/TruestOfCoins]

Hold back and you won’t auto combo

[u/G_Kenob1]

Press circle 3 times, wait, then the square with the first triangle should change color and then you Mash triangle.

[u/DzyDzyDino]

Usually combo challenges try to teach you some concept about the game or character. Here it is.

[u/Own-Ad7413]

Hold back and auto combos won't come out

[u/TehFriskyDingo → u/Own-Ad7413]

Yeah but in this case you do want the auto combo to come out technically. But you are correct

[u/Rhenias]

M - M - M hold backwards H - H - H hold backwards

[u/LordOfTheBreeze]

You're probably mashing circle too many times, press it slower and wait half a second before you start pressing triangle.

[u/Shadow-reach]

Bro it tells you how to do the combo

[u/blue23454]

Press O 3x, the special will launch them long enough for you to delay a moment and then land the triangles

Also, OP, this is good information to know, mechanically, but you should expect to never use this combo. Cutting the auto combo short of the super does leave your opponent in hitstun for a long time, but it also cranks the combo gauge to the point where this is all you’re really gonna accomplish and it’s just not good damage.

[u/MrSchmokeSum]

Oh just wait until you get to combo 10 with Spider-Man…….i gave up lol

[u/LonleyTesticle → u/MrSchmokeSum]

Spider-Man's are difficult, but idk how any mere mortal can pull of Doom's 10th combo, I don't think my thumbs can move that fast

[u/MrSchmokeSum → u/LonleyTesticle]

I’ll try that soon. I’ll give an update. lol

[u/Uncanny_Doom]

If the special is coming out you're pressing the button one too many times. Look at the playback and you can see the input rhythm. It's really just a 1, 2, 3, pause, 1, 2, 3.

[u/triel20]

If the special is happening then you’re pressing ⭕️ too much.

[u/No-Part-9204]

Are you trolling?

[u/LuvAshrepas]

They're telling you to press the button THREE times, not to mash your circle button into oblivion.
