I can't find the really good ones I've watched before, YouTube search sucks.
Those combos all seem to rely on your opponent standing there and doing nothing. Can't you just teleport behind the attacker to end the combo?
Yes, even a moderately experienced player can cancel out some of these combos. But the point is to do as much as you can and not give your opponent the ability to do so. Take for example, the first one (with Majin Buu and Kabitokai) he did pause for a few seconds before doing the telekinesis, but you can't dodge those even if the player could turn around, he would have turned around only to be stunned and not able to move.

As far as canceling the Dragon Rush, It's all about timing. You can throw people off by changing your timing.

And dodging the instant transmission is impossible if your back is turned.

To be fair most of my exaggerating was for comedic effect.

As for linking combos, I've done that. Its just to easy. I could beat kid buu on it in one chain using one hand and that is not exaggerating as I did while I was having cigarette with other. I like fighting games. scratch that games PERIOD that offer at least some challenge.

Well what is considered "challenging" is different from one person to another. I do find some of Tenkaichi challenging, especially when I play against my friend. So, to each their own.

Well if there was ANYTHING Burst Limit did really, really well, it was the smextastic visuals. Why NOT make a little artbook out of it?

Did some Photoshop-ing and came out with a decent looking scan-esque image of the cover for that art-book if case anyone else wants it... in case anyone else is currently working on compiling a most completely awesome guide to guides (and other such stuff)!! :wink:
