Ok guys..i'm tired of seeing the same threads on how to do the rom infinite..so im gon make a thread to try and end ALL the ridiculous threads
ROM INFINITE
c.hp, sj.rh, ad df lk, ad.lk, land, [sj.lk, sj.lk addf, ad.lk, ad.lk, land] - repeat in brackets
Ok..those are the commands for the ROM infinite, the trickiest part of this infinite is the ending on the combo..the airdash into the two lk's. A good way of putting it is to cancel the airdash into lk's as quickly as u can. There are two techniques in which this can be accomplished
The slide method
after u superjump and do the two lk's on the way up, put the stick in a df position and put your index and middle fingers on the two punches, then slide your fingers down and let your index finger hit lk, but dont let the middle finger hit anything after the slide. This results in a quick airdash down/forward cancelled into the lk, which is the "hardest" part of the infinite. After u perform that part just press lk again to end ONE rep of the infinite. Takes a bit of practice but the easier method out of the two IMO.
The thumb method
Place your thumb on lk, index finger on lp and middle finger on hp.
Superjump and do two lk's on the way up with your thumb, then press the two punches down with your index/middle finger and quickly follow it up with pressing lk with your thumb..almost at the same time, but not quite. This accomplishes the ad/df lk part of the ROM, then just do another lk with your thumb to complete one rep of the rom infinite.
Those are your two techniques on how to do the hardest part of the ROM..study it, practice it, master it, stop making threads about it. When u can do one rep on the infinite then just start over once u land..and bam..u can do the infinite.
Ok onto the timing
TIMING ON ROM INFINITE
Alright, this is for the people who can do the rom infnite but their opponent keeps gettin higher for every rep they complete. This is how the rom infnite should go when being performed.
The two lk's on the way up should be done relatively quickly, so when u superjump press the lk's with no pauses in between, after the 2nd lk, pause for a bit then do the ad/df lk part, then pause again for a lil bit and do the 2nd lk right before you land..this should keep the opponent a a good height for u to keep the rom going.
sj. lk, sj.lk, pause, addf.lk, pause, ad.lk, land, repeat....thats how the rhythm should go
so thats all i feel like typing for now..anyone who would like to contribute to my cuase for ending all this ROM thread madness..plz feel free;)
So umm yea..questions..post in here..legit questions i mean..not no bullshit questions about avatars and shit cuz they will not be answered, plz guys use your judgement when u ask a question..this is a ROM thread..so only questions about the ROM will be answered here:eek:
Anyone who wants to add sumin that i may have forgot..i kno i prolly did forget sumin..juss add it, thx

And how can u do it on servbot?

My problem with this damn infinite is that I always end up doing the little power wave thing when I try to dash down. I cant do the slide method at all.:mad:

im not sure what ROM stands for..but i think the guy that made it up went by the tag rom or some shit...not really sure
it is possible to do on servbot u just gotta do it faster than normal..and time your kicks so they hit his small ass, dont space the kicks out as much
oORYUOo
your getting the power wave thing becuase on the transition from up to downforward u are hitting u,uf,f.... that is the command for the power wave..try to move the stick from up to df w/o hitting those commands and u should be fine..can u trijump properly w/o gettin the power wave?

i can do about for tri jump reps before i start doing the power wave thing. but i guess i am hitting the uf.:bluu:

I don't honestly think it serves as a "useful" infinite due to the degree of difficulty....but DAMN! I wanna do it!:p

trick here is to cancel the c.rh as soon as it hits..dont wait, its really helpful if u whiff the lk instead of... say a hp because if u whiff the lk it'll be juss like performing the rom because u can use the slide or claw technique. Just cancel the c.rh quickly so u can land before your opponent does and juggle them with another c.lk, c.rh

ROM = some dude in japan who discovered this infinite.
I think it was discovered at around ECC5 (tourney that made justin famous).

02-05-2004, 11:11 AM
after the sj.lk going up, pause till you're head is slightly above the opponent's head before the airdash. If the airdash lk didn't connect, then the lk isn't coming out fast enough. if it completely whiffs, then u gotta pause more after the lk's going up.

02-05-2004, 12:36 PM
magnegro- no you cant roll out of the slide infinite. instead of otging them every rep(which is impossible) you juggle them so they technically never hit the ground.
J_d' GrEat- dont bother learning the normal jump infinite. the only time i use it is when im alernating reps of the rom and jump infinite on sentinel so i would say thats its only good use.

02-05-2004, 04:47 PM
im guessing that on the infinite you can just do a c.fp launch in to ad.df lk lk and i want to knowing (im guessing not) if you can do a normal just instead of a super jump...cuz every time to try to super jump i go way to high and cant land the lk is there a video i can watch? or someone please help me?
And is there any other worth it magneto infinite combos and does magneto work well with tronne bonne her projectile type seems to work really well with him if yes please can i see some combos

after the air dash, are we suppose to consistently use ad.lk and _not_ ad.d+lk?
cuz the d+lk keeps the opponent lower, while if you just go lk they go higher....
dunno, i've had more success with d+lk over just lk...but maybe since most people hold df for the ad they probably do d+lk without realizing...

can anyone help me with the timing of rom infinite on small characters such as strider
sHiNeRiK
02-29-2004, 08:48 AM
On Smaller characters..
When super jumping instead of doing 2 lks do just 1. That will lower them to the floor so they won't be too high up. When they are too close to the ground then do 2 lks. =)
The timing is the same... it never changes. It should only be different on tall characters (BH,Sent,Jugg,Hulk).

Amingo
03-01-2004, 09:41 PM
yeah of course you have to. in normal jump you only get 1 action, so if you nj attack xx airdash, you can't attack after the airdash. and the problem you're having sounds to me like you need to pause in between the lks on the way down, cos they're too high when you land. practice doing something like mags b&b into s.hk xx shockwave so that you get a hang of the timing for making sure that they're low enough.
i'd suggest learning a bit more of the basics so you know what you can or can't do and when, so that you don't waste your time practising trying to do something impossible like 5 fierce combo xx hypergrav or something like that. plus it'll help you with other characters as well, not just mags.

Oh ok. But I REALLY want to learn the infinite with Mags so ill use your advice. Oh yeah, I need help on the Iron Man infinite. I usually can only do it twice so if you can PM me about that and how to set it up in an air combo id REALLY appreciate it:D

Hey guys, i need help with mags rom infinite. i can get the ad df.lk, ad df.lk, sj.lk, sj lk, but i cant add.lk,add.lk ?!?! i think its because when i use lk i hit it with my pointer finger instead of my thumb, do you have to use ur thumb to press lk? cause thats hard for me, and plus gettin the add.lk x2 is almost impossible because the lk doesnt go out sometimes and is he suppose to land after the 1st lk of add? confused :confused:

Amingo
03-04-2004, 09:19 AM
hehheh yeah that's where everyone messes up when they're trying to learn rom :D
there's different ways to do it, but it all centers around pressing lk really really fast after the airdash. most people think "but i'm already pressing it fast!" trust me, you're not pressing it fast enough. there's 2 methods, one is claw, one is slide. you can probably find descriptions of both earlier on in the thread, go search. the timing i use is this : sj. lk lk really fast, pause slightly, addf lk, pause slightly, lk, repeat. if you're using only 1 lk on the way up, there is less of pause before the addf lk. like i said, the exact timing depends a lot on the individual. the only constant is the lk really fast after the airdash. you can practice on sentinel first, with sentinel there's no pause in the infinite at all so it's good practice in getting the lk out fast enough after the airdash without worrying about the timing.
if you want to know about the ironman infinite, go look in the ironman thread. there are like 20 threads about how to do the infinite, plus more people there to answer ironman questions too.

Amingo
03-05-2004, 04:11 PM
well not exactly. those 2 methods are basically guidelines to help people hit the lk after the airdash. i personally don't use either, i just have to concentrate to make sure i'm hitting it really fast, something like slide but not quite.
you might not get it right away, just practice. lots of people can't do it for a long time, and they just practice and suddenly one day they can even though they've been trying the same thing. if you're getting it twice, you're on the way :D and now at least you know what it looks like when it works. when you can do it consistently, you'll have to adjust your timing for various characters to find what you need to do to make it work on different sizes.

I dont use them niether. Ok then. Thanx for your your help. You have no idea how much it helped. I think its harder for me to do it because I use X-arcade for PS2. Everything seems a lot easier on the actual arcade...But w/e. Oh,and only 2 more question. Sometimes when I try the infinite,instead of dashing df I just do a hp. And is it easier to do the infinite with the air combo or use psylock to do it cuz I use psylock...:D

i'm not sure what you're talking about. are you talking about the lk mk after the airdash? if you can't combo the lk after the airdash, then simple you're not fast enough and you need to practice more. remember some people find it helps to pause slightly before the airdash lk. like lk mk, pause, ad lk, pause, mk.
if you're talking about the rising lk mk after 1 rep of rom, then you probably need to put a pause in between the descending lk and mk.
the concept behind the rom is simple, you just need to practice a lot. you're probably not screwing up because your execution is godly just that you're pressing some wrong buttons, it's probably just that you need to get faster. and don't be like some freak a while back who was all like "I CAN DO ROM PERFECTLY BUT THE COMBO METER DOESN'T RISE WHYYYYYY???!!!??" well simple you can't do rom at all then.

Amingo
03-16-2004, 09:43 PM
as i said, which part are you talking about? if you're talking about the descending lk mk, then the pause is as long as you can have it and still combo the mk obviously.
if you're talking about the pause before the airdash, you just have to pause such that magnus is about halfway above your opponent. this is to prevent going under your opponent after you airdash. it's more obvious on lighter opponents since they fall slower. on the big 3 you don't really need to pause at all.

i can do the rom inf. perfectly now but i practiced hard for it.. when you sj.lk,lk, make magz float for a little while. when his waist is at level w/ the opponents head,dash down immediately w/ lk.lk. just make sure you do the d.lk version so your opponent wouldn't go higher. and pause after the first lk.. practice makes perfect..:)

Time for me to post my rookie problems. First get it out the way.
I'm using a D-pad. I will not be using a stick for a while and can careless about sticks. I'd prefer to not get into a discussion on my prefernce...
So I've been trying to pull off the infinite for a few days...today was my longest serious session. However I kept running into problems, and solving one problem created others, so let me start from teh begining.
Height. Dash in and launch, connect roundhouse. Before I was hittin them too quickly, so upon sj back up there was no real way of continuing on a consistent basis, so while asking someone for help - he advised me to hit them in the middle of their body mass with the roundhouse. That made since and the body seemed to be at just the right height, then...
I couldn't super jump back up. before I was super jumping with no problems at all, but now when I try to sj, I ALWAYS do a normal jump, or if I do do a sj, it comes out so slow that I can never technically "combo" my opponent. I haven't even gotten to the roll part yet. Any recommendations or suggestions on either what the problem is or how to solve that problem?
Finally, since I am using the controller - I was curious on any advice on rolling the air dash into the lk? Even though my height was wrong or 'just not right' - I still was able to try that part of the infinite - and I would end up dashing under them and crossing them up *still nice but not the infinite*, so I know I'm not doing it quick enough. I heard that someone was doing it on a controller with no problem - so I was curious if anyone knew their method...Thanx ahead of time...

well i used to use a controller for mag when i had my dc..i couldve performed the rom with ease...i used the "slide" method...read up on how to do it..its same way,juss apply that to the DC buttons...do two lks, then place your index and middle finger on X and Y, slide your fingers down allowing the dash, but slide your index down further so u hit A on the way down..allowing the ad df lk part, then just do another lk and u completed one rep.
About the sj part...a way to fix this is try getting your fingers faster, u can also try spacing out the lk's when to do the setup..so with the two lk's coming down..do them a bit apart so as soon as the 2nd lk hits you're about to land..this way to get more hitstun on the character allowing you a bit more time to sj and continue the combo..tell me if it works..and what other problem(s) u encounter

Because I'm screwing up somewhere or all over the place and I can't pick it out. I dunno if it is execution *seems to me like canceling the dash is just a tiny bit faster than the sentinel "sj lk lk ad df lk lk land repeat" infinite*, I dunno if its timing, height, location, starting it - I just feel lost.

heh well it's hard to say, as i said earlier it's sorta as long as you can make it with it still comboing, duh. it also varies according to what character you're doing it on, since they fall at different rates. you'll get the hang of it after a while.
it's sorta like when you otg someone then try to do mags b&b into s.rh xx shockwave, you need to put a slight pause so that they're low enough for s.rh to hit.

04-07-2004, 09:17 AM
I can do hosting depending on size and how much bandwidth were talking about - I'm allowed 65 gigabits a month *not byte* so thats equivalent to roughly 8 gigs.
I've been poracticing and I have yet to figure out what I was doing wrong - but I can do one iteration - still can't really call it a infinite yet. Here is my question on the re-jump - do you want to hit the rising lk lk [i]slowly[/] or as quick as possible?
-:bluu:
Magnegro
04-07-2004, 03:32 PM
Quickly as possible on rejump after the two kicks connect, [pause for a moment and dash d/f (hold d/f) lk], pause (for as long as possible b4 it won't combo) lk. Super jump and repeat.
The part in brackets [] is probably the hardest part in the ROM that everyone messes up on :lol: Just keep practicing and you'll eventually get it.
btw... which method for the airdash d/f to lk r u using? Claw, slide, or both?

btw... which method for the airdash d/f to lk r u using? Claw, slide, or both? Neither - I've done so much on the pad that I just press both punches with my thumb then press lk lk - I can do it fast enough - that isn't the problem - I just wasn't sure on timing - and I need to up my consistency - I have more problems "jumping" then with the addf lk - I did some experimenting and figured out my jump problem - to super jump I "Believe" you have to start the crouch frames - but I was trying to super jump by the time I hit the ground - and the engine will ignore the "down" input - so I'd just do a normal jump - so I just have to 'slow down' like Ypei told me...

yur d-pad maybe the problem with the sj... ever tried switching to a stick? ...then again i've done the infinite on a pad b4... it was hard as fuck tho, but i guess it's just me :(
Blazn
04-08-2004, 10:48 AM
I kno this isnt necissary but the way I do the infinite is:
C.HP sj.HK ddt(dash down towards) lk, lp (while in the air) (the low punch brings him down more insead of lk again) sj.lk (pause) ddt lk, lk sj lk (pause)
ddt lk, lk.....
so it goes: c.HP , sj.Hk, ddt, lk, lp (land) sj.lk , ddt lk, lk (land) repeat.
notice how I only do the lk once when I superjump. its easier to keep them in the same height and is more easier on small characters.
fpr me anyways.
ps I didnt read the other threads so if som1 else menioned it.... my bad.

I'm building my fourth and fifth now - but in reality - thats purely for the buttons. I've never felt "in control" on a stick. My characters *no matter what kind of stick or where I'm playing* - just don't do what I want when I want as consistently as on a pad - I'm just better with one. The only time the stick has been better for me was doing supers with a somersault motion - but everythign else I do better on a pad - even fireballs. Again - I figured out my jumping problem I just have to practice crouching and then super jumping "quickly" - otherwise I'm just too fast or too slow.

Question. During the infinite when you do it to sent., how do you do that slow motion magic shit?
projektx-
04-08-2004, 09:46 PM
My best advice for learning ROM is simple (although it might not help alot since many have probably mentioned it, but i will give my advice anyways) Here it goes, [c.hp /\ sj.hk addf. lk lk...] now that you have launched and dashed down forward, the key for the pause between the lk's are quiet simple, look and STARE at the character you are doing the ROM on, you should be able to anticipate enough when to hit the next lk so the height of the character is just right. (i know thats kind of wierd but that really helped me when i practiced it.) many players that have done ROM so much don't really notice anymore when they pause, since it's already natural to them. when you get the proper height of the character and the ground adding the next part [ sj. lk lk ] shouldnt be hard to connect or shouldn't be hard to perform at all.
i hope that helps but just keep playing and playing to get the timing down. i know many people say that ROM doesn't really need alot of timing (which it doesnt) but having your own style of doing it can make you very consistent and better at it.
thats my 2 cents. :p

Slow motion? What do u mean by that?
There are two ways i do the ROM to sentinel... sj lk,lp,lk pause ad d/f~lk, pause lk and repeat or... i do sj lk,lk ad d/f lk,lk without any pauses because sent falls to the ground like a ton or bricks
btw... the latter ROM variation on sentinel is the easiest ROM to do IMO because there are no timing pauses. Just do it as fast as u can... this is how i first started to do the ROM and learned off it until i got used to the basic feel of it in order to vary it to smaller characters.
But in a match i usually don't set sentinel up for a ROM infinite, unless his ass was in the air in the first place (which that bastard is most of the time) but rather do that little rushdown inifinite to him... i don't really want to elaborate on how it's done (if u don't already know) b/c there are a lot of variations u could do. It's just basically a rushdown that combos and doesn't stop, for those who don't know.

actually there are more than 2 variations on sent..the magic series thing he was talkin bout is sj lp, lk, lp, lk ad df lk lk...dont do it too slow..juss space out the last two lk's..u can infinite that sent offa anything..that fucker is too fat lol if u find he is topo low just add more attacks to the ROM and he'll go higher

If you can roll cancel in CvS2 you can claw.

No. Its like during the infinite they do a normal jump and as they do magic,they take short pauses after every hit. Go to Spidey's MvC2 site and the videos have it in it. EVO even has it dude.

Anyway, of course you know you have to pause. The 2 tricks that I use to that is look right in the middle of the 2 characters as you do it and Mag's voice sounds. I listen like this de,dou,pause,de,pause dou... Well I have unique ways. Just remember at the first pause wait till the guy has fallen to the below half of your body.

To all of those still having trouble learning just keep practicing. It took me about a month of playing 3 times a week or so to get it down. I'm now tryin to learn fast fly. Thx for your help.

i've got a question and i've read about 8 pages w/out seeing anything that looks like the same problem i'm having.
i can usually do like 2-3 repititions of the infinite (which i know will get better the more i do it) but as of right now the only reason im getting messed up is because i'll somehow end up behind my opponent. like i was trying to reset the infinite or something from the other side... but im not.
if that doesn't explain my problem enough ill try to elaborate further.
after a few reps of the infinite, when im trying to go back up with the sj lk lk ill super jump behind the fuckers body. should i be superjumping up-forward and then airdashing down-forward? or superjump straight up and ad d/f?

I've been trying to do this for a year and still can't get it. I usually do it two ways. I go up with an sj. d+short-->sj. forward, pause, ad.df d+short, pause, ad. forward. My other way is doing sj. d. short, pause, ad. df d+short, pause, ad. forward. I can do all four or all three hits. But after I land, the opponent is still too high for a second rep.
I tried doing this differently. Sometimes the first d+short knocks them too far back if I'm only attempting three hits. If I do four hits, then it works fine. I tried doing a regular short after the air dash but that really doesn't help. Occasionally after the air dash if I wait RIGHT BEFORE hitting the ground to do the forward, the forward just whiffs right under the opponent.
Is it better to do a d+short when going down? No matter what I do, I can't get another rep. Should I not pause for the forward after the airdash? I also seem to be able to keep them lower if I do four hits instead of three, which seems strange to me. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Impact009

Also, why do people think the slide infinite is harder? I can actually do repetitions the slide infinite. There's no timing for the slide infinite unlike the ROM infinite.
And I forgot to mention, I do the ROM infinite using the slide method. I go up with two kicks, 1-2, I pause, and then go down with an air dash and a kick, 1-2, then I pause again and do the last kick, 1. So it's something like 1-2, 1-2, 1. I hardly do three kicks anymore; I seem to get better results from doing four kicks instead.

Practice on sentinel first cuz he is a big ass target.
What I did to practice it was dash in(if you want) standing jab, then standing strong, that should launch sentinel.
Super jump after him and hit sj. short, sj. forward.
DON'T DO SJ. D+SHORT. that is the wrong short. just just sj. short
hit sj. short, sj. foward right behind the other. no delay.
then let mag float so crotch or abdomen is a bit higher than sentinels head(about a quarter to half a second). then air dash down and press sj. d+short. sj. forward. When air dashing down you should hit d+short RIGHT AFTER the downward air dash. Also, leave a gap in between d+short and foward or you will hit the ground and when you sj to repeat the rom again it wont combo.
You need the d+short when air dashing down!
so the combo is:
the dots are pauses
jab, short. [sj. short, sj. forward....air dash down, sj. d+short...sj. foward}. repeat in brackets.
just post again if you need advice.:)

Right now most of the time I try to do the airdash I end up going df. but over Cable's head. Could it be that the first short is coming out too late? It still combos, but the first short I aim for the stomach or chest. And I can't pause very long for the last forward, since it'll whiff under Cable or won't come out before I land.

07-20-2004, 10:31 AM
I just noticed why I had trouble with this. Sometimes I tend to let go of the joystick after the airdash and it screws up my second short. I thought I was doing a second d+short but I looked more carefully and saw Magneto's foot sticking straight forward instead. Hahaha, thanks for everybody's help. I think I can do it now.

Big thanks to Jason aka da_dragon aka showcase Magnus for making this thread, there were WAY too many ROM infinite question threads that had the same answer.
Though I'm still mad scrubby, I ROM'd Cable until he dizzy'd out in training mode, plus I can usually get 3-6 reps off during actual matches.
Also thanks to ilikebeingalive for pointing out where I needed to fix things (ie: doing the last 2 hits too fast), as well as Tyranidman aka The People's Champ for giving me some tips as well (ie: keeping them low to the ground for crazy mix-up stuff, knowing the general height and all that).

What's the max hits for the infinite? That is, how many hits untill the opponent dizzies out of the infinite?
I can get up to 34 hits, but I can't seem to break my record. I'd like to be able to ROM untill the opponent dizzies out of it though. Am I even close to doing that? :p
Also, if someone can give me tips on how to keep from doing his u,uf, f and any punch button in the air would be appriciated. I do that a lot when I mean to dash dw. It's a real piss off, but I guess that's what happens when you're using a controller.

I believe that max hits are somewhere in the 50's. To stop getting that sonic boomish projectile in the air put the stick or controller back in neural before air dashing df. Don't roll the stick to df pass through neutral basically.

i dont know if this was stated already, but i dont feel like reading through 12 pages to find out. for those that do the rom infinite and the wave thing comes out, instead of jumping straight up initially, you can jump up/forward, and then come straight down as opposed to d/f. the only thing about this infinite is that the first lk when coming down has to be down+lk. the rest can be regular lk's. if a character gets too high, you should try going up with only one hit, like sj with lk or lp and come down normally. thats all for now.

when you addf after the sj.hk you should do a d.short then foward. I highlighted the correction in my quote.
When you land and superjump after them you don't need a d+lk, just a regular lk.
Sometimes when the opponent gets too high I don't do: sj.lk, lk, addf, down+lk, lk
instead I do
sj. lk, addf, lk, lk
also if you want try out
sj.lk, lk, addf, d+lk, lp, lk sometimes I find that keeps some peeps at a even level.
mix some rom sequences up to keep your opponent level so keep a close eye on them.:)

I don't know what survey you're talking about but it lied. It most definitely is not impossible on the Ps2 version. Only way you could make that statement is if you CAN do it on dreamcast and CAN'T on ps2. I'm guessing you don't play on dc or WHY would you try on Ps2. Anyways, not trying to sound rude (sort of realized i may have come off that way), but I used to play on ps2 back in the day and I could definitely do it just like on DC.

My Problem:
I cant seem to keep the combo counter counting while doing the infinite, i can keep my opponent in the air but after i land it stops, and my opponent is able to guard while still in the air.
Is this because i am not super jumping fast enough?

Hmm. Try super jumping right when you hit the ground. Also try not to let your opponent get too high or they will be to far up for u to keep the combo counter going. If that doesn't work post here again.

Definitely try what archetype has been suggesting (sj.lk ad/df sj.lk, sj.lk)
I also use sh.lp, ad/df sj.lk, sj.lk or sj.lk, ad/df, sj.lk, sj.lp. Works almost* everyway you try it.
*Almost because you need to do ad/df sj.lk to keep them still.
Also to some of you who still can't get it, make sure when you ad/df and do the sj.lk you are holding down to do his "crouching like air kick" this keeps them in the same place.
Hope that helps.

First pick sent cuz he is a big ass target and easier to Rom on.
after the addf lk, lk do sj.lk, sj.lk right behind the other, no lag at all.
Now here is where people differ...
Do you use the slide or claw method?
----------------------------------------------------------------
"Slide method" - you addf with your index and middle fingers and slide your index to hit the short to continue the rom.
"Claw method" - you addf with your index and middle fingers and hit the short button with your thumb to contine you the rom.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Either way is good, just use the one YOU want to use. I personally use the claw method but that is just me.
Now no matter which method you use the addf lk must be hit RIGHT AFTER the addf so...
launch, roundhouse, addf lk, addf lk, sj.lk, sj.lk(remember they have to be inputed fast) then addf lk(the lk must immediately proceed the air dash down foward, if u play cvs2 do it like a Roll Cancel.) then addf lk(put a small gap inbetween the inputs of the addf lk, addf lk or the opponent will be too high) then repeat so it will look like this...(the dots represent the speed to input the button press, the more dots the more space inbetween the inputs.
launch, roundhouse, addf lk..addf lk {sj.lk, sj. lk, addf lk..addf lk.}
It should look something like this, and im talking about sent here, the other characters have different timings and speed so practice against characters like storm, doom, capcom, cable, etc..
The reason the computer blocks your addf lk might be because you are floating too high after the sj.lk, sj.lk or because you are not hitting lk RIGHT AFTER the addf.
Hope some of this helps, keep practicing and good luck :karate:

Alright guys, here is an excelent setup from an OTG with c.hk, but only if your hella fast and sj. cancel.
Do whatever it is you want to do to get an OTG: c.lk+Psy,.clk, hk throw, it doesn't matter. Once the OTG is performed with c. hk, immediately after the c.hk contact, sj. canel into sj.hk, to addf lk, lk to ROM. Its a nifty little setup and I find I like it better than the standard setup.
The only person you'll have trouble conecting this with is Cable. For some reason he jumps back after the OTG faster than any other character, making it extremely difficult to land this setup. But for anyone else... fire away!

Yo, you gotta mix that shit up. Try to just sj.lk, addf.lk, lk.
or you could: sj.lk, lk, addf. lk, lp, lk.
Use that in addition with the standard sj.lk lk, addf. lk, lk,
Keep your eye on your opponent too, if you see him getting too high then sj.lk, addf. lk, lk. then go back the standard shit.
Just find whats feels good to you, but remember that it's all about keeping him level.

so ur sj.lk's are connecting, then what are ur ad/df lk's doing. if they are getting blocked ur doing it too slow, if your going underneath the opponent, then you are going too fast. there is a lil break b/w the sj.lk's and the ad/df lk's. thas about all anybody can tell you. keep practicing

If you could rom you could tri jump. I was practicing that today as a matter of fact. Do that shit till u could do it in ur sleep. Practice does make perfect.

hell yea practice does make perfect. i went doing 11 hits of the rom to 33 from practice....tri jump isnt too hard wuts really hard is landing a combo with the trijump u gotta be at a good distance from where u jump and after u hit someone.

how do you end the rom?, like iron man has pc, all i've been doing is something like,
\/(psy), j. lk, lkXXtempest

thanx, j chan, but i think i like it w/o the hypr grav better, plus psylocke just drops them in mag's chest...

10-13-2004, 02:56 PM
just use psy instead of the hypergrav. If u use hypergav they might mash out.
Theres quite of bit of shit you could do after the rom. I think there is a thread about it somewhere in the magneto section.

its always better w/o hyp grav. but on ps2 or dc is nearly impossible to mash out

I started practicing the rom 2 days ago, 2-3 hours a day, this thread is great, i read up on it, and tried the infinite, and nothing. Then i read more and i realized some problems, i can do about 11 hits on sentinel now, but i have a long way too go. Now its all about timing really especially this part, PAUSE ad.df lk PAUSE lk. (the hardest part of the infinite). The initial sj.lk sj.lk is easy. Great post.

One day you will land many hit, legend speaks of 50 before opponent dizzys out, make sure you end ROM before this when you reach this level....

thats the way to go! practice :tup: the real test is actually doing against ur opponents im telling its much harder actually getting it out on ur opponents...........funny i can do the rom on dc but not ps2 the buttons are alot bigger than dcs so less room to work with

i was just wondering, for the ROM, is there a reason why people don't use jabs instead of lk's for the first part before u dash downforward with lk's
[sj.lk ,lk ad/df lk ,lk].
Is it damage setting or just a matter of preference ?

I'se just likes to use lp's to make everything look pretty. Kinda give it the "Whoooaaa!!" affect even 9though its pretty simple to perform. Mostly just preference :karate:

its sort of a habbit for me to do with the kick since i practiced with the kick oftenly than using the punch

a quick comment...
shouldn't claw motion be easier, especially for people that play various games besides mvc2?
If you can kara throw in 3s you can claw
If you can roll cancel in CvS2 you can claw.
it's just a thought.
Super bump! Yeah though my thoughts exactly...
I roll cancel, Rom infinite, and kara throw all using the claw method because its easier to me.
Sliding my fingers = a no.

Hey... I've read all 16 pages of this thread and been prac-in the ROM pretty consistently... but my problem is a little weird. At first like everyone I had problems with the ad df lk part. I tried not using either method but it could never work (only on extremely rare occasions). I tried using slide method but my fingers would accidentally press other buttons or would slide too slow or some other crap. Anyway I tried using the claw method and I'm having some success with it. Problem now is that whenever I want to air dash during the ROM I always end up pressing hp a little too soon before pressing lp. Is it how I'm positioning my fingers while using the claw method or is it that it's a habit from drumming fingers on surfaces thus making me automatically move my middle finger faster than my index finger? Should I just continue prac-in and hope one day I'll suddenly be able to do it in my sleep or should I find a solution as to why I'm pressing hp too soon? Whenever I'm trying to do the ROM and I'm trying to keep in mind to press both punch buttons at once I'll screw something else up since I'm focusing too much on air dashing. Any tips? ideas? thanks for your help.
I know it's a weird problem but...

Wow I just sort of solved my problem. Now I'm literally using the claw method to doing the ROM. Basically i sort of slightly tense up my fingers in a very "claw" like position. Heck the tip of my middle finger is literally vertical to compensate for my earlier problem. I started out before hadn with only 10 hit combo(rarely) to going suddenly doing a 29 hit combo. However that was one of but at least now I'm consistently dashing properly more. Now all I need to do is practice more.
BTW, for people who use the claw method, do you guys play the whole game using the claw method even with other characters and stuff you do you guys like automatically switch to "claw position" when it's time to ROM?

on november 1st I actually got 50 hits in and he dizzied out, and i was doing it on cable, too bad i didn't read this post before :sad: but yes, if you practice about 10 hours a week you can get the ROM down in about 2.5 weeks. At least I did, and I mean down as in consistent 5+ reps. Now im going to work on ending the ROM with and without assists.
oh and I use slide method. gl to every new person trying out the ROM, have patience and practice hard! :party:

thanks...
now I've got another question... it's not really about ROM but partly related.
When you guys do tri-jumps with HK do you use the same method as you did as in ROM or does everyone use slide method? If I try doing it using claw method my hand is at an awkward position and I mentioned before I suck at slide method.
So I guess I'll have to learn slide method also huh?

i dont use any of the methods well its like 2 thirds of the claw i dont use my thumb jus the index and middle u can go slowly and the trijump works pretty good.

thumb method forever!
all the other magnus' players here use slide.. i think slide has the advantage.. no matter how fast i try to do the trijump, the slide method is always fatser.. why is that guys? ccan smbody explain it to me? when i trijump using thumb method, magnus floats.. my trijump is fast though but the slide method is a little faster.. why is that?
