[UM] Heavy D!

Quite a few changes for the man. A good thing (and bad for his opponents), he's still the king of pokes into super.

+P will knock away the opponent if it connects.

+K armpit splash is safer to use now.

+K has increased invincibility, but has more lag now.

New DM/SDM, qcfx2+K, if you remember in a vid before, this will power up all of Heavy D!'s specials until the move ends.

How much does the effect of the new DM last?
Also is the original special move gone?

I really can't tell, about 5 seconds I guess.

The original d,d+P is still around for normal powerups. But if you did the DM/SDM, then the d,d+P will actually hit someone just like 98.

+P> Q.Max> qcfX2+P

Any new combo using the shadow DM powerups?

x 2 K, then (corner) --> Jump C, A,

C,

D,

B, cr C

It's from an old preview video, but it's still the best combo I know in this mode.

I can't believe it has not been mentioned yet, his Dwn+D is now cancellable!

Hopping D can hit people who are crouching. Also I believe his far C was sped up.

Nope. I tested it on Kyo (which is as common as it gets), Iori and Yamazaki and it misses. Maybe if they try a d.C or something, but otherwise it misses.

Well, then at least the hit area was lowered or lengthened. I used to have a lot more trouble getting it to hit people who weren't jumping.

-Turns out that Heavy D!'s power-up DM (qcfx2+K) in extra mode (or Ult-Extra) has added attributes when performed on red health without the gauge--the "cool-down" effect of the flashing red health doesn't begin until after the power-up DM is over. That means, you are essentially performing two DMs for the price of one: the power-up DM and the Rush DM (qcf~hcb+P) or the Cannon DM (qcfx2+P).

-If use just the gauge for the power up DM, you cannot do another DM if you're not in red health.

-The Power-Up SDM also has the same property allowing you to do another DM, but only at the DM level.

-Basically, when in the aforementioned conditions (red health, no gauge), you should always do the power-up DM because of the free DM property.

-Note if you do the power-up DM from red health, you cannot charge your gauge manually (via ABC or getting hit) until the DM wears off.

-Hence, if you wanna do the fancy combo: power-up'ed

+P > QMAX > Cannon (S)DM...you have to power up via

~dwn+P and not the DM.

---
Basics:

-d.Bx2-3, d.A > f.A >

+C

-Choose your poison: d.Bx5, d.A > Rush DM vs d.Bx3, s.A, > f.A > Rush DM does Â¤almostÂ¤ the same damage.

-Power-Up'ed ground slam

+K > s.C

-d.B, d.A >

+P > ...

-Power Up DM~(d.B), d.A >

+P >

+B > s.C (This easy combo does around 35%)

-Don't forget to add a crossup C or B before all combos.
