This tutorial is about a Faust RC combo extension which players like Nage and Kiisha have been using recently. It shows how to do the basic no-item toss version of the combo first, and then it shows variants where you can use item toss mid-combo to possibly increase damage (at the expense of making the combo more difficult, since you have to alter what you do based on the item you get).

There are almost certainly better item combos you can do, but hopefully these at least offer a jumping off point and one reliable method of converting into a hard knockdown for each relevant item.

The songs are The Anthem and Chop Your Hands from Onra's excellent album- Chinoiseries. You can find his soundcloud here: https://soundcloud.com/onra or more info here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Onra

Please leave comments/questions below! Big plans for more stuff in the very near future, so stay tuned!

NOTATION:
(caution: Though the combos work in a variety of spacing situations, if you start too far from the corner, the extension will fail. Also, taking into account varying character weights, the distance from the corner, the item you get, and the fact item throw distance randomly varies somewhat can be difficult! foregoing the item toss makes the combo much reliable and doesn't force you to take as many variables into account.)

The basic no-item version of the combo is:
whatever, pogo, GMW (2 hits), RC, bomb bag, land, f.S (just before bag hits), 66, 2HS, pogo, tongue (p), GMW

Bomb:
whatever, pogo, GMW (2 hits), RC, bomb bag, land, f.S (just before bag hits), 236P, pogo, (wait) tongue, tongue, GMW

Hammer:
whatever, pogo, GMW (2 hits), RC, bomb bag, land, f.S (just before bag hits), 236P, 2HS, pogo, tongue, GMW

Weight:
whatever, pogo, GMW (2 hits), RC, bomb bag, land, f.S (just before bag hits), 236P, pogo, GMW

Poison:
whatever, pogo, GMW (2 hits), RC, bomb bag, land, f.S (just before bag hits), 236P, pogo, tongue, GMW

Black Hole:
whatever, pogo, GMW (2 hits), RC, bomb bag, land, f.S (just before bag hits), 236P, 2HS, pogo, GMW
