And with that, Combotober 2025 comes to a close. Was a heck of a journey and I've loved labbing and going through all these games, and remembering why they rock.

Thanks to @abadidea.bsky.social for hosting the event, and all those who contributed!

Let's get ready for the next battle!

Day 31! Free Space 3! Power Stone!

There was one other game I was hoping to showcase that held meaning to me, but I can't deny Power Stone means a lot to me too. Something simple but awesome to confirm into super to close this month out!

Day 30! Combo That Spends The Most Meter! Blazblue Chronophantasma!

100% meter to 0, activate Overdrive, back to 100% and then burn it all again. That's Terumi for ya~!

Day 29! Combo that starts from across the screen! Marvel Vs Capcom Infinite!

This game is an enigma that baffles me to this day but the more I play the more I'm intrigued to work it out to cook. And that's with the base game, who knows how deep I'd go if I ever went... Beyond.

Day 28! Highest Vertical Distance Traveled! Blazblue Central Fiction!

Had to give Ragna some love this month. Practical? Not in the slightest. Vertical? Very.

Day 27! No touching opponent! I chose BB Cross Tag Battle!

...Personas don't count as touching right? I mean Adachi's just swirling his gun and enjoying himself he's not touching anyone! And Nu certainly isn't either!

Day 26! Combo that involves a wall! SF3: Third Strike!

Turns out you can't turn music off separately on Online Edition

But had fun relearning this combo I figured from yesteryear!

Day 25! Non Fighting Game! I went for DMC 5!

Very rusty but went for more practicality, so went with a certified way to deal with Fury!

Day 24! Combo of two hits! Soulcalibur 2!

I'll be very interested to see other folks entries today, two hits isn't a lot for sauce, but had to get some SC2 since I've been playing it lately.

Day 23! Touch of Death! DBFZ!

There's a whole bunch of ways to do TOD's in this game but I'm glad I took time and labbed till I found my own way to do it.

Also no idea why the video quality nosedived, PS capture for most others didn't have this problem...

Day 22! Combo that uses a taunt! I picked Tekken 7!

Fun fact, a lot of these I use who I was GOING to use as a training dummy. Bryan was a logical choice until I remember this launch has juuuuust enough leeway to get a patented Miguel Woo Hoo.

Day 21! Free Space! Garou: Mark of the Wolves!

I feel this is redemption for being cheeky with SNK day, took a while for this game to click with, it's haaaaard.

#combotober

Day 20! Combo that starts with a throw! Went with Persona 4 Arena Ultimax!

This feels like it's like a frame away from extending into sauce but this was the most practical application I could find.

My biggest takeaway is developing a craving to finish Persona 4 on PS2.

Day 19! Repeated move! I chose Smash Ultimate!

Only works on this stage and only works on heavy characters like Fox but a TOD from grab with 8 As is a TOD from grab with 8 As.

Day 18! Favourite Guest Character!

Big big big prompt but Spawn is defo top 5

Day 17! Tag game! I picked Battle for the Grid!

Favourite is such a big question but absolutely had to get Battle for the Grid in here.

#combotober

Day 16! Indie Fighter! Them's Fightin' Herds!

Recorded a combo, realised didn't need the lights to get the relaunch, accidentally recorded mic and call audio, edited it out, uploaded the wrong file...

I am very pleased I cooked but man did it take a journey to get here...

Day 15! Other Publisher!

I chose Melty Blood Type Lumina!

There's still a lot to wrap my head around in this game but I think this is cooking?
October 15, 2025 at 9:15 PM
#combotober

Day 14! Other Favourite Arc System Works game!

I picked Guilty Gear XRD Rev 2!

Struggled today, really tried to do something spicy but I kept running into a wall to make the combo more me. Settled on just a dust into excitement. Coulda burned another 50% but that'd only be 30+

Day 13! Favourite other SNK game!

...What do you mean this isn't an SNK game, its got SNK in the name and Kyo is right there...

...Might do Garou as penance later down the line.

Day 11! Other Capcom game! I picked Street Fighter 5!

Favourite Capcom game is a big question to answer, but I'm comfy saying Birdie is one of my fav characters to play.

IF NO ONE GOT HIS BACK I GOT HIS BACK! IT'S ALL COMING UP BIRDIE!

Day 11! Free space 1!

Since its relative recent rerelease and my realising it's neat, I picked Plasma Sword!

Hayato was always super neat in the Vs Capcom games and I never found out where he came from until Fighting Collection 2, and turns out where he came from is rad!

Day 10! Virtua Fighter!

Nother game I felt myself getting sucked back into, but sadly not enough time this month. I hope no one can waggle fast enough to get out...
