DOA5 - Strategie di combattimento, Combo, trick di esecuzione e altro ancora

Using frame data in Dead or Alive 5

In most fighting games, you'd have to buy a guide or scour the internet to find accurate frame data. But in DOA5, you can see frame data, as well as a wealth of other useful information in about any game mode by turning on the "Move Details" option in the Fight Screen Info section of the pause menu.





The game displays frame data in real time in the lower right hand side of the move detail pane. You will see two numbers separated by a "/". The first number is the number of execution frames of your last move. The second number will display with a "+" or "-" next to it. This requires a bit of explaination.



When you make contact with an attack, your opponent is temporarily placed in a state where they cannot do anything. If they blocked your attack, we call this state "block stun", and if they were hit by it we call it "hit stun".

Now, remember the recovery phase of an attack? Well, if we subtract that from the amount of block stun or hit stun it causes, the number that's left is useful, because it tells us who will be able to act again first, and how much faster. Thankfully, DOA5 does all the math for you, and just shows you the end result, like +2 or -8 and so forth.

So if I do an attack, my opponent blocks, and the frame display reads -8, we would say that move is -8 on block, meaning that I recover 8 frames slower than my opponent does. This means if they have a move that's 8 frames or faster, they can hit me with it and I can't do a thing. On the other hand, if I land a move successfully and it reads +22, I have all day to follow up, even with a slow move.

The key thing to remember about frame data is that you don't have to remember all the numbers. Just use the numbers to figure out what works and what doesn't. Once you know that, you don't even need the numbers any more!

Main combo: 1+PK, P, 236+K (Crit burst), 8K, 4PK, Throw.
Against wall: 1PKKK

The main combo, the one that made it all possible, initially came from Cyric 79 at the Doa 5 gamefaqs message board.

Finally beat Legend Survival mode this morning. Huge relief.
Difficulty, clock time, health regained at the end of the round etc is the same as it was on Champ IMO.
I used Lisa to beat all 4 Survival difficulties.
Her 1p, k move was the attack I spammed the most. It has amazing range and good speed but its main purpose was to soften the opponent up for a Critical Burst<launch<hit<air grab/carwheel kick which would generally take off close to half their health. every time I got floored, I'd try to hit them with the mid/low wake up kick into 1p k and Critical Burst. This made comeback fights a real possibility, when I needed them (mostly against bloody Jan Lee).

The specific combo 1p, k, 6p, QCFk (Critical Burst), 8k (launch), 4p, k, T (air grab)

Against Bass and Bayman, substitute the air grab for 4,k+b

Generally, I tried to stay away from the electric ropes/perimeter as they would screw up my combo or I'd get smashed against them. If you can stay in or near the red circle in the middle of the arena, you're good.
Lisas 7k p (body splash) attack worked great against the AI in general but especially well against turtles (Akira!). The body splash seems to break their guard so you can set them up for a Critical Burst into the afore mentioned combo.
