Wow thanks alot for the useful tips, and yeah i do have a small problem with mashing but i try not to spam because i have a hard time inputting the commands accurately(hoping that it works out) i know its a horrible habit but i have been working on it alot, now the only other problem is being able to pull off long/or otherwise tricky combos(bad hand-eye coordination i guess? lol) but i'm sure like you said  practicing will help with that.

And as for combo'ing in general i was not even aware of what the basic chains for combos for this game was(i haven't yet came accross a tutorial/guide that touched on that subject) but after reading through what you said it's starting to make a lot of sense(the more you know xP). But basically what your saying for some of this is that there will be buttons that you would have to input the second you get done inputting the last one. i have been trying through trial and error to pull off some combos by doing it step by step, it helps for memorization but i often find that some moves take ridiculous(the fun part 8D) amounts of timing to pull off in order to continue, or its just me being either too slow or too fast but anyway it would be best if i get back to practicing with what i have learned here since its easier said than done xD and again thanks a ton for the help i really appreciate it ^^.

Although i have been just a lurker in this thread for about a month,this is my first time ever posting in this thread so before i start ranting questions or anything i just want to say hi to everyone!.
To start off i have not been playing this game long, in fact this is the first KOF game i have EVER played and had recently found out about it, around a month before the console release(i play the 360 ver), and since i started actually playing the game i loved everything about it from the character/background artwork to the great game play graphics.
But since transitioning from games like BlazBlue(i was never really good at that game either LOL) i found that the game play is a bit different and i'm currently having a really hard time comprehending how to input the buttons/movements for combos when i'm practicing, usually what i do is look up combo vids and try my best to learn from there, but often i see that i cant really keep up at all, its like you have to be ridiculously fast at the inputs or they will never go off, but when i did try it that way after some time i found that if your too fast then some button commands wont even register, which i found frustrating at times. Currently i'm trying to practice using Ash, King and a few others but right now my main focus is learning how to play Ash, hes a fun character to use at times(when i get frustrated and start just spamming his DM on the practice dummy until i cool off), but i'm finding it hard to figure out how fast i should be inputting the commands in the combos when i'm reading them,Any tips would be wonderful and very much appreciated.
