Astaroth combos! Being this is week 1 of the time I am sure in time we can find out ways to squeeze out a few more points of damage or otherwise get whole new combos going on. That said these should be more than enough to help get you by for the time being!
I will have probably a quick beginners tips guide up in a few hours. That said the more "meaty" systems guide is the essential tips guide that already went up.
@roofiemonger This guy down the comment section named "HeartySnicker" is calling you out as a liar, saying all your combos are bogus man....... What ya ganna do about it? Here's what he had to say.... Many of the combos in this video are not real. At 0:11, 3b 4ka, the opponent can air control backwards and get out without being hit by the A. At 0:41, 22(k) 5ab 22k 22b, the opponent can Ukemi backwards and get out without being hit by 22k and 22b. This combo can do 6b instead of 5ab and it's real. At 1:00, 5kch 2b+k fcb, the opponent can just guard without doing a Ukemi and get out for free. At 1:28, 66kLH 22_88b, the opponent has a 50/50 for getting away between Ukemi right, or no Ukemi at all. You can 22b to catch right, and 88 b to catch none. At 2:18, SC 214a+g 22b 6ba, the opponent can air control backward and block after the 6b. Others may not be real, ie; the wall combo will not be consistent at MANY angles, but I haven't tested thoroughly enough. I HOPE that the other combo guides are more thoroughly tested......
Knowing your enemy is key to beating them. I’m studying these for the sole reason of learning you Astaroth players’ dark magic. This man has been abusing me since the arcade days in sc2
Was my go to style for Amazon my dragons Crown custom character. That finishing move spiraling through the air to slam an opponent feels fitting to the flipping with the axe move she did in the dragons Crown game.
My dad just introduced me to this game, and astaroth was the character that caught my attention on the roster immediatly. Now that i know these combos, ill get to send his nightmare flying off the arena! Thanks for the content.
Next on Rooflemonger: Another tips video for SC6 hopefully, just covering some things for beginners, Goku black bomb loop guide should be up tomorrow(hopefully) and just a lot more scvi stuff! Ivy stuff as well probably in the works astaroth and ivy are the people I got the most time with right now.
Take note, custom characters do not work on some combos, the height difference makes it so you can’t, just a warning if you feel you couldn’t do it right ^-^
I often have to non stop rewind other peoples videos to catch a specific thing, so that's why I add slowdown to mine, so everything is more easily readable.
On the Forward+K counter hit you can hit with the 44K and then still get the down/forward A+G if you dash forward. It does 48 and guarantees a re-stand.
thank you so much sir. It's the first SC i play since IV back in the 360, back when i didn't even take FGs that seriously, and when i noticed a few months ago that astaroth had a grappler kinda archetype i fell in love, but didn't find any discord or guides for help. time to practice!
Those were some neat combos! I knew that 11/33 BK, b+K(while backturned) was possible, but I didn't think about ending it with 22/88B. Also, I never knew B+K works as well for certain mid-air combos as well as it does. If I may add though, I learned for the Lethal hit Bull Rush that I could combo with the max charge bull-rush follow-up into 44B and it seems to work consistently; the bull rush also let's me combo into the A+G grab (against mid-air foe) if I'm close enough to the ledge for a ring-out.

Others may not be real, ie; the wall combo will not be consistent at MANY angles, but I haven't tested thoroughly enough. I hope that the other combo guides are more thoroughly tested.
There is some stuff I got that is tech trap only, but can't work in a true combo sense if they just stay still so I omitted those from the vid. Save those for a more advanced video down the line maybe.
Tbh the rising B combo is flashy, but not optimal. But the coolest thing about rising B lethal, is that you can Posideon's Tide right after and get the full animation for 107 damage!
for the shockwave combo if instead of doing the ground stuff you instead do Down B+K, A+G you get 65 damage instead of 66 and it's incredibly easy comparative.
Nice vid! Some great ideas here. I didn't know you could do 44K after CH 6K. You can actually get 44B as an ender instead of 2B for a bit of extra damage. I like the B+K 28A+G ender for the 214A+G combo in SC, very cool indeed! I was just doing 28A+G before. Also that last SC combo won't work most of the time, you can air control out. You can end with B+K, 236A instead of 6BA ;)
Regarding the first 214A+G SC combo, the 28A+G will whiff vs small characters (ie. Talim) if you do 22B. You need to do 88B instead for the airthrow to connect. B+K 236A ender still works fine with either 22B or 88B.
Good Job, like always. For the first time since i follow you, we are not looking for the same character xD. Zasalamel is my first pick, hope you'll do a combo/guide/tips&Trick for him. Anyway thanks for this one ( Astaroth is my second pick xD) and for all your job.
Just from luck I've had him stomp on the Ai in the arcade mode. In SC1 (OG?) you could so some seriusly funny (or iritating depending the giver or taker) with seigfried lol while not that effective for damage. it was just fantastic at anoying the crap out of your oponents
Big roof is seriously making me consider maining Astaroth in SCVI. Especially since his movement speed seems to have been massively buffed since way back in ancient times when I used to play SC on my dreamcast... 👍👌
There are some specific follow ups that grant you throws. Like Hades Control into either of the crouch grabs. Im curious to see the frames on the CH restand options as well. Most of the time I armor grab. Is it a true reset?
Well if it works, then yeah I guess its a true reset! There are very few resets in this game like you would normally think of in a fighter. The restand will leave you at slight advantage in their face but you still have to do something fast to beat out any mash.
Hi roof, can you do a guide on mitsurugi? I feel he's the "ryu" of this series and it's a good start to explain the fundamentals of this game and for new players to start since he's almost entirely fundamentals.
In time friend! Gotta learn before I can teach and I have a tournament coming up so I am sort of focusing on what I am best at currently at the moment until after Canada Cup.
rooflemonger thanks, Can you post or link the Canadian cup later? I'm interested in seeing you at a competitive capacity. Would be so awesome seeing you own with broly.
Been playing astaroth and knew like half of these my friends will hate this. Seems like the only move fast enough to use under pressure is is his 6k am I missing something?
Do you think Astaroth is a good character ?...I want to learn him, but he doesn't seem to have good tips/trick/tech. No +frame situation on block where he can frame trap or throw... No High/low mix up... :-/
I am not sure friend, sorry. That said people who make troll customs for the most part are not very good players so just rank up a bit and you will stop being matched against them.
Astaroth combos! Being this is week 1 of the time I am sure in time we can find out ways to squeeze out a few more points of damage or otherwise get whole new combos going on. That said these should be more than enough to help get you by for the time being!
Ima get the game today. Can you make a guide for new player friendly.ish characters I should look for?
I will have probably a quick beginners tips guide up in a few hours. That said the more "meaty" systems guide is the essential tips guide that already went up.
@@Rooflemonger tks man appreciate it👍

SPY! SAPPIN MUH ASTAROTHS!
Time to take some notes and study up! This character is too much fun
Was my go to style for Amazon my dragons Crown custom character. That finishing move spiraling through the air to slam an opponent feels fitting to the flipping with the axe move she did in the dragons Crown game.
RANDO DOTO COMMENT!!! I'll square up with you with Astaroth anytime Doto. =D

Now that i know these combos, ill get to send his nightmare flying off the arena! Thanks for the content.

rooflemonger been waiting years for more SC 5 content! Excellent ;)
gat dangit ill fix that.
Any Nightmare content in the near future? I know Astaroth is your boy but I think you played Nightmare in your ranked video too.
I wanna play half the cast just need more time in the day right now.
This guide was simple and effective just like the big boy himself, thanks.
Big boy season truly is now.
Take note, custom characters do not work on some combos, the height difference makes it so you can’t, just a warning if you feel you couldn’t do it right ^-^
This is exactly what i was waiting for.....and man it didnt diapoint...i cant WAIT to watch Alllllll of your sc6 content
Great video and sweet combos!👍. Love the slowdown. Makes it easier to identify the moves. Adding this to my repertoire. Thanks!

Oh, boy!! I was waiting for this! Thank you rooflemonger!

DayDay Espalin I was testing this after reading and you can also get a WS full charge B for 54
evil reborn ost is too good and astaroth will always be my favorite SC character. great guide its helped me utilize his toolkit even more.
thank you so much sir. It's the first SC i play since IV back in the 360, back when i didn't even take FGs that seriously, and when i noticed a few months ago that astaroth had a grappler kinda archetype i fell in love, but didn't find any discord or guides for help. time to practice!
Same. Had no idea grapplers were even a concept in SC. I thought he was just a big dummy with an ax.
I’m the opposite. Loved asta in SC1 and 4 before i took fgs seriously, now i dont care for grapplers but im sticking with the boi

the >k ch to
Thank you! I've already found some solid tech traps and oki but needed combos. I'll see what I can do with these too.
There is some stuff I got that is tech trap only, but can't work in a true combo sense if they just stay still so I omitted those from the vid. Save those for a more advanced video down the line maybe.
I been watching u since day one great job with the videos can't wait until u do the Cervantes combo video
Nice find on the B+K and A+B properties! Now i can really lay in the hurt >:D
Jeez, that first Soul Charge combo tho
I didn't even think it was possible to catch an air grab out of anything other than his launcher moves-
For the close range bull rush combo, you also need to hold a+b, otherwise 44b can’t connect
Love the SC2 soundtrack!
Tbh the rising B combo is flashy, but not optimal. But the coolest thing about rising B lethal, is that you can Posideon's Tide right after and get the full animation for 107 damage!
for the shockwave combo if instead of doing the ground stuff you instead do Down B+K, A+G you get 65 damage instead of 66 and it's incredibly easy comparative.
I was just wondering how to use the air grab in a combo, good guide
Gonna main Geraldo and Cervantes, hope you have time to cover them!
Edit: Also Ivy but you're gonna cover her for sure
Trying to decide the style for my main character, Asteroth's is a main contender along with Nightmare's.
Nice work so far
THANK YOU MR.MONGER
Please do the Nightmare next! Love your videos and enthusiasm, mate!
More characters in time! Gotta learn before I can teach!
Nice vid! Some great ideas here. I didn't know you could do 44K after CH 6K. You can actually get 44B as an ender instead of 2B for a bit of extra damage.
I like the B+K 28A+G ender for the 214A+G combo in SC, very cool indeed! I was just doing 28A+G before.
Also that last SC combo won't work most of the time, you can air control out. You can end with B+K, 236A instead of 6BA ;)
yeah I tried everything on left/right air control, but the last one apparently the diagonals screw with it a bit.
Regarding the first 214A+G SC combo, the 28A+G will whiff vs small characters (ie. Talim) if you do 22B. You need to do 88B instead for the airthrow to connect. B+K 236A ender still works fine with either 22B or 88B.
Good Job, like always.
For the first time since i follow you, we are not looking for the same character xD. Zasalamel is my first pick, hope you'll do a combo/guide/tips&Trick for him.
Anyway thanks for this one ( Astaroth is my second pick xD) and for all your job.
I like zas but focusing on who I know for the moment. After Canada cup wanna play around a lot more with Zas and Sophitia.
Dear Rooflemonger could you do a how to beat character guide (Ivy particularly!) Love the content and keep up the good work!
Many more in time friend just gotta get acclimatized to the game myself!
I know man no problem! Ivy has been wrecking me though lol
1:43
simply bookmarking that wall combo so I can practice it.
Just from luck I've had him stomp on the Ai in the arcade mode. In SC1 (OG?) you could so some seriusly funny (or iritating depending the giver or taker) with seigfried lol while not that effective for damage. it was just fantastic at anoying the crap out of your oponents
SPIN TO WIN BAYBEEEEEE
Big roof is seriously making me consider maining Astaroth in SCVI. Especially since his movement speed seems to have been massively buffed since way back in ancient times when I used to play SC on my dreamcast... 👍👌
LMAO naw bruh....his overall speed has been nerfed ive mained asteroth for years...
I played it on dreamcast too
his knee of death has had a speed nerf that turned it from super fucking useful into sometimes it's all right. This makes me sad :(
A BIG BOI WITH AN AXE :O
So far Astaroth, Nightmare and Tira are the scariest characters to go up against online. Especially in the right hands.
Talim and groh are my biggest fears, mostly cause their turns never end and I play only asta and ivy so far and they slowwwwww
Fuck Yeah! Also spending too much time creating characters too! I've just made Sir Daniel Fortesque from MediEvil. Take care brotha!
'YOU FILTHY MAGGOTS!!!!"
how do you do the second hit of 1aa? i can't seem to pull it off
Ah yes, good ol SC2 music
Haven't got the game yet but I'm a long time fan how is azwel kilik and groh?
Hey nice job man.
22b into k+b is an issue for me. any tips

his fastest moves are back+B, and back+A
Shoulda knoen it woulds been you rooflemonger when i looked up an astaroth combo guide lol
Does a 214 throw into a BK loop?
Do you think Astaroth is a good character ?...I want to learn him, but he doesn't seem to have good tips/trick/tech.
No +frame situation on block where he can frame trap or throw...
No High/low mix up...
:-/
He's fun but in this version of the game I don't believe him to be particularly strong.
Ok but where's Siegfried? Why isn't he getting any coverage?
I duno ask everyone else. Only 24 hours in a day doing what I can here.
@@Rooflemonger I shall be patient
Nice video ! by the way is it possible not to play against custom charackters .. so many are troll and ruin my fun playing :l
I am not sure friend, sorry. That said people who make troll customs for the most part are not very good players so just rank up a bit and you will stop being matched against them.
Please do Taki combos in the near future my friend
In time friend in time! I gotta learn before I can teach :-0
NICE
Big boiiis
Wowzers
come here because I got rekt by his grabs
Pls delete Bardock
Wait wrong vid
Siegfried please 💝💝💝💞
In time! Gotta learn like everyone else before I can teach :-0
Its okay I can wait, just seeing
I'm glad you're at least gonna do it eventually
no hard feelings but I’m hitting that unsub, SC is gr8 and all, but I come here for DB. Thank you for all your past dB content roof
I can’t tell if this is a joke or not, but you do realize that he isn’t quitting DBZF stuff, right?
Pathetic worm
I ain't quitting DBFZ at all. That said if you can't handle a few non dbfz videos by all means smell ya later son. Don't need fairweather subs.
Is he god for beginners?
Yes and no. Simple hits for big damage yes, but struggles handling someone in his face.
@@Rooflemonger so who is (with a big weapon)
