You do not fast fall the dair. You should either release the control stick until after the dair, or keep it in a neutral position and then immediately fast fall after the dair
I really liked this video just to see different combos but I think most of these are theoretically and would almost never be hit in game…. One great combo that i have found to kill and super easy to hit is knife, dair, up air, tp to knife, up special, up air
Important tip: you need to buffer the dair. half a second before you finish the up special animation press dair and it will come out without fast falling.
This, I was stuck on this for like 20 minutes before my smol brain decided to try input buffering. Still can't make the side special into dair finisher work to save my life I'm sure I'm missing something similar on that one too.
super helpful, thank you! 1 minor critique: your mic is significantly lower than most other videos, just FYI. probably just a minor adjustment to make. keep up the great work!
Perfect timing i just got arya, really great guide. saw a comment you replied to and asked for suggestions on what character youd make a guide on next id suggest finn, personally this games assassins are the most fun for me i just love the high speed and combo potential. i mained finn before i bought arya and so far aryas been super fun
I’m glad you find it useful! Finn definitely seems like the best character to do next. Started learning about him and playing him more yesterday. Will try to get a guide up this week
Up- or S-Tilt -> up special -> dair will almost never be true in game unless the opponent drops his controller, even at low percents because of DI (especially if they use tazmanian trigonometry perk). However, you can Up or S-Tilt-> Up-Special -> dagger -> Dair -> fastfall. That will be way more consistent. My best follow up to that is Nair->Side Tilt-> Up Special-> S-air ( about 60-ish% but Nair can be inconsistent depending on DI). If you don't feel confident you can skip Nair and go for or a grounded S-tilt after the fast fall, or even skip both Nair->S-tilt and go for Up-special after the fastfall but you will miss on some damage. However, for some reason, if you manage to get a grounded Up-special as your combo starter in neutral (which I don't think you should try outside of hard read situations since the start-up is so slow), comboing with D-air happens to a bit more consistent. That's pretty much one of my Bread & Butter for arya. I guess there must be more optimal path and combo routes. When writing this comment I was ranked around 550-600 with arya 1v1, which is not that great so feel free to correct me so we can all improve! If you guys know of some good set-up to stick the dagger, please share.
I love all of the info! I know the dair pillar combos can be hard to actually get in game, but I primarily wanted to give people different combo routes and follow ups to practice to help them get a feel for her combo game. I appreciate all of the info, it is super helpful!
@@ghigoSER S-tilt -> Side Tilt -> Side normal attack. Dagger is arya's side special, where she throws... a dagger (duh), that you can reactivate to dash to the dagger's location (preferrably an opponent). N-air->Neutral Air->Normal aerial attack where your directional stick is in neutral position. (same logic with D-air/U-air/S-air)
Good inspiration on the combos. She was the 2nd character I unlocked because I really enjoyed playing as her on The Lab. I was doing very little damage and not knowing much about her combos, hopefully this changes now. Although, there were times that I really did some sick combos even without knowing much, and I still enjoyed played as Arya even if I was terrible with her most of the time (I have only played 1v1s, not really interested in 2v2s).
@@mrdoodlepoodle9804 it can depend on the position you’re in when you land the up special too and the enemy’s damage. You also need to make sure you don’t fastball until after the dair hits
Hello man, the best arya guide i see today. I just have one question, what is FF in ur combo ? for example "FF side Special". i'm not english :') Otherwise great job, u get a subscriber
FF stands for fast fall. So before the input of the up special you want to tap your left stick you use to move down, and it’ll make you fall back down to the ground faster. Landing will cancel your endlag for some combos, or it can just help with positioning
For the first kill confirm i can do the combo but the final up air doesn’t connect shaggy flys just under where the up air hitbox is and idk what im doing wrong EDIT: I figured it out i just have to fast fall a little when I teleport to the dagger then up b
If you look through the comments, I forget who it was but someone was having that issue and it ended up being because of a buffer setting. If I find it I will post it too
have a problem, when doing the combo that uses dair after special upair the enemy in normla online matches somehow dodges the combo but in the tutorial the combo meter says it is right any solution?
So the pillar combos are really specific. They truly only work at low percents, and the positioning of where you hit them and how they DI matter. You really just have to put in the playtime and be able to react to when you get the right position
So you will have to fast fall. After hitting the dair, immediately input down on your stick or whatever you use for movement. You could also practice fast falling on its own to get it down first
K, great guide here. I really appreciate that. My only question is how pillar combo works in a real match. I can do this perfectly in the lab, but... sadly in the real match, the enemy can run out at first up special > Dair loop. when I do the side normal > up special, the enemy goes higher than Arya, and Dair never hits. So sad :(
So in game it works best on the big bodys. But it really can be DI/positioning dependent. You can get an idea for where they will end up on the travel time to them, and you kind of just have to play and get a feel for it
@@PBLKGaming wait so its kinda positioning problem like I hit them when they are in the air? well, most time when I hit them in the ground, it still goes higher than me. No matter with characters
@@Momo-420 Yeah character heigth/weight seems to affect the combos reliant on Down Air hits, which is most of them. I can do this combos to Shaggy/superman but cant do it to Aria/Tom/velma they always end up higher than me even while using the 10% jump heigth bonus. What is clear you can bully Iron giant with this. I did not play much platform fighters so I dont really get how can i truly affect positioning in the air it seems to consistently have light/small characters above aria.
Hello even when I fast fall on the Down air following the up special I only can hit it like 30% of the time any tips I’m on controller btw I use X as normal and Y as special.
So it should be down air, and then fast fall after words. That being said, depending on percent and positioning the down air won’t always be true. So try to just react to where you are going to end up and use the correct aerial.
Make sure you are using your secondary attack stick to dair, not just down on your movement stick and attack. The down input will make you fast fall early making the dair miss
Drift is just where the opponent goes after your hit, which can be affected by the direction they hold or DI/KBI. Choosing aerials means then using the right move (neutral air, side air, or down air) after
This video is great and is a good guide, but my biggest struggle is dair because I don't know how to do it without fast falling, I get it sometimes but it's really damn hard, any tips to get it right?
@@nuggit9196 I would try using your right stick, as using your main control stick that you use for movement will make you fast fall automatically and you need to do it after the move
This is a very helpful guide. I've been really struggling to figure this game out as Smash is the only other platform fighter I've played, but this video helped me see a lot more of what I'm doing wrong with Arya, and other characters to some extent.
how does he stick to the opponent like that ? is that something inherent with arya skills ? or is he just that good ? cuz my biggest weakness is being able to stick to people so i wanna know how to do that this smoothly
I think the biggest thing is just patience. When you have it ready people are going be looking out for it, so holding onto it and making them worry about it helps a lot.
Yes! So the neutral special itself will only stun, but when you have their face if you use your nair or neutral attack buttons it should steal the enemies move
how long did it take you to be able to pull off the combos "perfectly" and did any of the other games you played help with that? I'm asking bc I want to be able to pull of atleast some basic combos in an actual 1v1 or 2v2 since it feels like I'm just hitting them mindlessly
break the combo into small pieces and you’ll get it easy, focus on doing 2-3 hits then do more. generally the process i take for most fighting game combos
To be fair it’s still hard to pull off a lot of Arya combos “perfectly” just because things like damage, knockback influence from the opponent, and your position when you hit them matters. So it really is having the knowledge of what your follow ups and combos are, and then being able to react and get down the proper feel for how she flows. I had played smash competitively for about 5 years prior to the multiversus release
This is great advice. Start just with the simple combos, or just a few hits and practice getting that one piece in game before worrying about the big combos as they’re more situational anyways
I comment this before watching video so maybe you answered it but... I bought arya like 2 days ago and have only been able to dash after enemies hit by my up special if I input up air right after, which means she launches enemy and jumps herself, then when I press up air she dashes after enemy and immediately up A's her opponent and they fly away. If I only hit up special (up B) she won't dash after them. How can I make her dash after opponents she hits like it says in the move description without being forced to use up A to accomplish it? I can't find any info on this anywhere and have seen arya players do up B dash into different moves. I'm really wondering what I'm missing. I am right when I say just hitting up b doesn't make her dash after her target am I not? Edit: yeah at 1:05 you hit him and she immediately dashed, I can't get her to do that unless I input up A. Is it maybe glitched right now? Am I doing something wrong?
Hm, I’m really not sure. After hitting up special it should just automatically follow up with the dash. I’ve personally never had that happen at all. Are you holding down after to fast fall or anything?
@@PBLKGaming I too, struggle with the same issue, so like, after the up special then I input up air to dash, having to input the dair is hard cause I still fast fall lol, I play on controller by the way
@@PBLKGaming no, I tried holding up, I tried pressing up special and immediately releasing all controls, I can't get her to do the dash without up air. I'm not home right now, I gotta try again later to see if I'm not actually just stupid but pretty sure it doesn't work for me
@@unknownanomaly8362 if you find out if it is a glitch or something please notify me. It is so weird that for some people arya does do the dash if you only hit up special and for a couple people you have to do up air before she dashes. Really makes it impossible to combo with her
If you go to any assassins collection page at the bottom of their passive it lists one of their passives, “glass cannon” which makes the take 14% additional damage
@@PBLKGaming Ok. I just wanted to ask just in case you had this page that had a lot of info. Last question do you think that in the future people will make a dust loop for every character because I really feel like we know so little
@@psych_shock4370 I’m happy to clarify! Platform fighters don’t seem to have dustloops very often, but it would be awesome to have a universal place for info.
That might mean you are fast falling too early and causing them not to hit. The dair follow up is also dependent on the position you hit them/DI as well so you might need to try getting closer or further away from the other character
Im struggling with figuring out what attack is best to come in with vs a standing opponent that can swing and hit me in the air, even when i try n dodge and side normal combo i just get beat,often i find myself at 60 damage before i can land a hit on fin batman or Harley any recommendations for what attack to try n get in with?
Side Arial is good for getting but in most cases especially versus a Finn or Harley (though goes for most of the cast) you’re at a speed, range, hit priority disadvantage. When struggling to get in your dagger is your best bet then you just gotta maximise your combos damage output.
Patience can be really important with Arya since your combo starters aren’t great to approach with. Using movement to bait out opponents, and dodge their moves is really important. When approaching I think sair is going to be your most consistent option, and then once they are trying to recover you look for a combo starter like your side normal, up normal, or knife to catch them with.
amazing arya guide mate, just one thing, sometimes it doesnt let me teleport to my dagger when theyre in the air (im on keyboard, do i have to aim towards the direction they are at the same time as pressing my special?)
It you should just directly teleport to the enemy after pressing side special a second time. As long as you press side special and then wait till after you get the backstab to do another attack it should work consistently
I think that matchup requires a lot of patience, wait for him to use batarang and focus on dodging it and then hitting him. If he hasn’t thrown it yet just wait. Also once you get in pressure him hard.
It just means that the area the enemy pops out of the up special at won’t always be the same depending on what direction the enemy is trying to move, and where you are when you hit the up special. So combos sometimes will require different aerials after that you have to react to/read
you said you can use enemies grounded normal after you've stolen their face but you didn't show it. Is the only way to do Aarya's own grounded normal and then the enemies straight after? or is there a way to use the enemies grounded neutral instantly?
Make sure you are using the stick instead of the button, using the button will make you instantly fast fall. If you are on keyboard it’s really hard/impossinle
@@PBLKGaming Ah, I see. I'll try on controller to see if I have any more luck. Is there a toggle to disable fast-fall or to better manage when it procs or do you feel that having it on the default setting is ideal and the timing is just a little touchy? Maybe buffering the d-air then not inputting any direction while the up-special plays out will work. Will try that.
The game doesn’t let me teleport to the knife fast enough after a sair or up air to keep a true combo going and the game doesn’t allow me to buffer the move either
@@yaboibigsmoke2733 ok The air neutral was obvious one, it was a ground neutral that made no sense but hearing how you have to combo into it makes more sense thanks
After inputting the aerial move with the stick, use your control stick you use to move and flick it down to force your character to fall to the ground faster. This helps because it cancels the animation you are in by landing and allows for more follow ups
Not always, they work at low damage and you have to be close enough to them when you hit the up special. If you are too far away you will need to sair instead, and at higher damage up air
I had access to the closed alpha, and got the game in early access last week. But really I just watched gameplay from the best aryas and tried to explain the basics :)
Disclaimer !! : the advanced moves will not work unless you use a controller, because the Dair on keyboard can only be done if you buffer the hit which means you will never follow the enemy on the descent as shown in the video , instead you will only poke the enemy and he will out run you. It is sad but unless they change how fast fall works on keyboard , arya is not recomended for it.
Actually you can cancel your fastfall during dairs if you press jump same time as attack, then let go of down immediately after. This works on kbm as well.
Arya just isn't very good I personally think she needs a buff, she's way too light and can get koed at like 60-70 by edges. She's just a worse version of Finn. She's an air fighter and gets outclassed and beaten by all the other air's like Bugs, Tom, and Finn.
@@PBLKGaming The problem is that her attack boxes suck ass compared to all the other characters. She is the only character who actually has accurate, or smaller, attack boxes compared to the actual player model.
Arya blows chunks. She just isn't usable because you have to be precise to actually hit anyone. She doesn't really have any true combos and her knife ability is required for almost every good combo, it can literally be broken by any other projectile and it doesn't even reach across any of the platforms. You have to be amazing just to have a chance of doing any good with her. She cannot compete with most other characters, which is why almost no one uses her. They really need to fix the hitboxes ASAP, I'm tired of people just spamming attacks right now and hitting people who are behind them.
Why does half this crap not even work. I tried these combos and they dont even connect on a batman bot. They are decent bases for ACTUAL combos but what?
Are u supposed to fast fall when doing the dair or no and if not how do you stop it from auto fast falling
You do not fast fall the dair. You should either release the control stick until after the dair, or keep it in a neutral position and then immediately fast fall after the dair
@@PBLKGaming so ik I should play on controller but I play on keyboard so is there anyway to do the same on keyboard?
@@PBLKGaming I have seen lot of people asking the same, no one knows an answer for using dair without fast fall on keyboard, its really sad

@@unknownanomaly8362 if you find out if it is a glitch or something please notify me. It is so weird that for some people arya does do the dash if you only hit up special and for a couple people you have to do up air before she dashes. Really makes it impossible to combo with her
@@Zuignap It's patched for me now
how do i use the other characters special when I have their face?
You can only use their neutral air, or their grounded neutral attack. No special anymore
@@PBLKGaming how to i use them thooooooooooo
@@alucard_08 if you jump and neutral air it will use their neutral air, and after a hit you can use their grounded neutral attack
@@PBLKGaming after i hit on the ground it doesn’t use their neutral ground attack wym
@@alucard_08 that’s the way it’s supposed to work, but it might be bugged idk
Really good guide, maybe one for batman next? :DD
Maybe!
Where did you get that assassins take 14% more dmg
I feel like the game doesn’t tell us some stuff like if a garnet gets less knock back compared to someone like Superman.
If you go to any assassins collection page at the bottom of their passive it lists one of their passives, “glass cannon” which makes the take 14% additional damage
@@PBLKGaming Ok. I just wanted to ask just in case you had this page that had a lot of info. Last question do you think that in the future people will make a dust loop for every character because I really feel like we know so little
@@psych_shock4370 I’m happy to clarify! Platform fighters don’t seem to have dustloops very often, but it would be awesome to have a universal place for info.
Hey for some reason my down airs never land when I’m doing the combo can u help with that?
That might mean you are fast falling too early and causing them not to hit. The dair follow up is also dependent on the position you hit them/DI as well so you might need to try getting closer or further away from the other character
you need to buffer the dair. half a second before you finish the up special animation press dair and it will come out without
Ty guys
My down air will never hit how do i fix this
Use the right stick instead of X, this'll fix that issue.
This is a good tip. It likely means you’re doing it too slow, and using the right stick can help
you need to buffer the dair. half a second before you finish the up special animation press dair and it will come out without
How do you not fastfall when you dair
If you are on keyboard you actually can’t, on controller you have to use the attack stick, and buffer it after you hit the up special
Im struggling with figuring out what attack is best to come in with vs a standing opponent that can swing and hit me in the air, even when i try n dodge and side normal combo i just get beat,often i find myself at 60 damage before i can land a hit on fin batman or Harley any recommendations for what attack to try n get in with?
Side Arial is good for getting but in most cases especially versus a Finn or Harley (though goes for most of the cast) you’re at a speed, range, hit priority disadvantage. When struggling to get in your dagger is your best bet then you just gotta maximise your combos damage output.
Patience can be really important with Arya since your combo starters aren’t great to approach with. Using movement to bait out opponents, and dodge their moves is really important. When approaching I think sair is going to be your most consistent option, and then once they are trying to recover you look for a combo starter like your side normal, up normal, or knife to catch them with.
Thank you so much 🥲
So Sair is basically Fair and Bair because this game only has 1 horizonal air option or at least this character only has 1 idk
Correct, in this game there’s just a side air not fair and bair
amazing arya guide mate, just one thing, sometimes it doesnt let me teleport to my dagger when theyre in the air (im on keyboard, do i have to aim towards the direction they are at the same time as pressing my special?)
It you should just directly teleport to the enemy after pressing side special a second time. As long as you press side special and then wait till after you get the backstab to do another attack it should work consistently
Can u give matchup tips like against spambatarangman, I mean Batman 😅😅
I think that matchup requires a lot of patience, wait for him to use batarang and focus on dodging it and then hitting him. If he hasn’t thrown it yet just wait. Also once you get in pressure him hard.
Big W video
Appreciate it!
@@PBLKGaming A really good video, that help me a lot with arya’s combos
@@mouriomar6939 glad to hear it!
will you be covering other/new characters as well?
Yes! Is there anyone specific you are looking forward to?
@@PBLKGaming looking forward too? no idea lol but right now im trying to learn batman
@@TaigaGalette I guess anyone you’d like to see lol
What do you mean it needs to be adjusted for di?
It just means that the area the enemy pops out of the up special at won’t always be the same depending on what direction the enemy is trying to move, and where you are when you hit the up special. So combos sometimes will require different aerials after that you have to react to/read
you said you can use enemies grounded normal after you've stolen their face but you didn't show it. Is the only way to do Aarya's own grounded normal and then the enemies straight after? or is there a way to use the enemies grounded neutral instantly?
I think it might currently be bugged, the tool tip reads you can but it was really inconsistent for me
@@PBLKGaming me too I was wondering if there was a way to reliably do it but i guess not
Hitting the dair after the up special is fucking impossible o-o
How are you doing it consistently? I always fall out of range.
Make sure you are using the stick instead of the button, using the button will make you instantly fast fall. If you are on keyboard it’s really hard/impossinle
@@PBLKGaming
Ah, I see. I'll try on controller to see if I have any more luck. Is there a toggle to disable fast-fall or to better manage when it procs or do you feel that having it on the default setting is ideal and the timing is just a little touchy?
Maybe buffering the d-air then not inputting any direction while the up-special plays out will work. Will try that.
Nice
Thanks!
Does the pillar combo work at 0 cause in vid u started at 15
It does not on shaggy, it does on some heavier characters though like Superman
Ok thx
tysm
No problem, thanks for watching
The game doesn’t let me teleport to the knife fast enough after a sair or up air to keep a true combo going and the game doesn’t allow me to buffer the move either
After the hit you want to teleport after you need to fast fall to the ground to be able to cancel your endlag and then teleport
@@PBLKGaming thanks this helped with the sair but the up air sometimes goes to the true combo and sometimes doesn’t and I can’t tell what causes this
what is FF Upair?
Fast fall up air
For some reason my hitstun combo keeps resetting on the lab (Note i can't input any faster and the buffer is normal so there shouldnt be any delay)
I have the bot on recovery to practice timing it correctly.
I’m not 100% sure what could be going wrong. It might be a spacing issue or a bug with the lab for you then
Arya Stark in this game is like Lucina from smash bros but on crack and has a cheese addiction
So I don't understand how to use your opponent move after the face steal, it seems random
When you steal their face your air neutral normal will be theirs and on the ground you have to combo into a ground neutral normal
@@yaboibigsmoke2733 ok The air neutral was obvious one, it was a ground neutral that made no sense but hearing how you have to combo into it makes more sense thanks
Let’s get a lebron guide!
🤔🤔🤔
the “basic combo” is so difficult to pull off cause i keep fast falling on the dair
Make sure to use your c stick or attack stick if you are on controller. It’s really difficult on keyboard tho
What’s ff? Fast fall?
Correct
@@PBLKGaming ohh okay thank you
do you know a way to dair with arya on keyboard without fastfalling?
Check the pinned comment, someone else was having the same issue
you need to buffer the dair. half a second before you finish the up special animation press dair and it will come out without
So shaggy or Batman next
Finn is next, but I’ve got a lot of requests for Batman too
Subbed
Appreciate you!
wdym by fast fall again
like how do u do it
After inputting the aerial move with the stick, use your control stick you use to move and flick it down to force your character to fall to the ground faster. This helps because it cancels the animation you are in by landing and allows for more follow ups
What is a dair
Down air
what is sair??
Side air, in this game if you use an aerial horizontally it’s the same in either direction. So there’s no fair or bair, so people say side-air or said
are pillar combos true combos so they will always hit
Not always, they work at low damage and you have to be close enough to them when you hit the up special. If you are too far away you will need to sair instead, and at higher damage up air
But what is DI?
DI is directional influence. So which way your opponent is holding when you hit them, it can change where your move sends them
Do Finn next 🥺
😏
My real question is how did u get so good in just two days?
I had access to the closed alpha, and got the game in early access last week. But really I just watched gameplay from the best aryas and tried to explain the basics :)
waht is ff up ?
Fast fall up air
Disclaimer !! :
the advanced moves will not work unless you use a controller, because the Dair on keyboard can only be done if you buffer the hit which means you will never follow the enemy on the descent as shown in the video , instead you will only poke the enemy and he will out run you.
It is sad but unless they change how fast fall works on keyboard , arya is not recomended for it.
This is true, I don’t play on keyboard so I didn’t even realize this was a thing until after the video 🥲
Actually you can cancel your fastfall during dairs if you press jump same time as attack, then let go of down immediately after. This works on kbm as well.
What is dair?
Down air
@@PBLKGaming do you hold it down for the combos or tap it down
@@emberrx6463 tap
@@PBLKGaming ok cool thanks
She seems more robin like than Lebron
True
Arya just isn't very good I personally think she needs a buff, she's way too light and can get koed at like 60-70 by edges. She's just a worse version of Finn. She's an air fighter and gets outclassed and beaten by all the other air's like Bugs, Tom, and Finn.
I definitely think she takes more work than a lot of the cast, some of the best aryas who have her combo game down make her look really strong though
@@PBLKGaming The problem is that her attack boxes suck ass compared to all the other characters. She is the only character who actually has accurate, or smaller, attack boxes compared to the actual player model.
@@Lolatyou332 agree with this
Arya blows chunks. She just isn't usable because you have to be precise to actually hit anyone. She doesn't really have any true combos and her knife ability is required for almost every good combo, it can literally be broken by any other projectile and it doesn't even reach across any of the platforms.
You have to be amazing just to have a chance of doing any good with her. She cannot compete with most other characters, which is why almost no one uses her. They really need to fix the hitboxes ASAP, I'm tired of people just spamming attacks right now and hitting people who are behind them.
She definitely needs a precise and patient game plan, she’s still pretty viable in singles just harder than most
looking cute
Guess Imma just stick with superman
Gotta do what you gotta do
@@PBLKGaming what do you recomend, play on keyboard or in controller?
@@GabrielSilva-yg2ws controller 100%, combos are harder on keyboard because you can’t use down air without fast falling
@@PBLKGaming aighty Imma try controller then
@@GabrielSilva-yg2ws have fun!
put a controller on tha screen
Why does half this crap not even work. I tried these combos and they dont even connect on a batman bot. They are decent bases for ACTUAL combos but what?
