When I look at the original youtube.com/watch?v=zr-5BgyUBMo , I shake my head; I was getting hit, empty Beasts, taunt and got hit, etc. So I wanted to make another one for a while. The old one had Jude with every chars' skills and all of them active, but this one aimed to be more natural, using Jude-only skills and setting the default STR to 4500(uses the same file as the old one).
To deal with Chromatus, I use a set pattern. At start, I throw a few Demon Fists to weaken the Iron Stance, then wait for him to attack. Whatever the attack is(hopefully a normal attack), I will Snap Pivot it. Then I need to use the Assault Step + Cerberus Strike to break his Iron Stance enough to use Rising Falcon's ground version to lift him in the air, which I can only do properly if I'm behind him. I want him to counter on this hit. Chromatus counters in the air are always Dark Projection, and due to RF's trajectory, his DP will not only miss me, but I will hit him as I land when he lands simultaneously. I then backstep to cover his DP-recovery flip, and follow up with Talon Storm. The 3rd and 4th hits lift him slightly off the ground, where if he counters on the 4th or 5th hit, he will guaranteed do DP as a counter(counters earlier, and he's considered grounded, so he'll do whatever). I have just enough time to throw a Palm Strike into Dragon Shot into his DP. Dragon Shot has invulnerability frames on startup just like Leia's Eagle's Rage on startup, so I can attack while voiding Victor's own attack. Afterwards, I quickly attack him again and down him with Shattering Demon Fist. I will use Snap Pivot 2(Pivots when holding guard) if I have it active; else, I'll either backstep or use DS on wakeup to avoid whatever wake-up attack he uses(works inconsistently), then repeat if I can. Don't get me wrong, I still lose a crapton during the chromatus phase, despite the title, but its easier to manipulate.
The hard part is the normal forms, I guess I could SDF cheese him and he'd go down quickly, but just beating him that way defeats the purpose of the fight for me. Against sword, the combo work is simple, but passable, but I need better gun/hammer algorithms; no need to completely grounding these forms if he has no air counter, but I don't have to abuse it either. Guns have range, and hammer has superarmor on artes, making it a bit tricky to deal with Jude for me.
I don't count the glitch as a win... could have sworn I've seen this from someone else =02.... I thought it was funny though.
