[ Advanced : 1 : Introduction ] -- // --------------------------------------
_______________________________________________________________________________

A plethora of `Street Fighter II´ clones came out in the 90s, and only a small
portion of them survived. Typically the ones that had some type of 'gimmick'
would end up being the titles to stand the test of time. And while they may
not have evolved to the point where `Street Fighter IV´ is today, some credit
is due to those games they got as far as they did.

`Variable Geo´ is one of those fighters. After all, a fighting game where the
entire cast are all waitresses, and the loser has to strip? That`s original!

AVG`s combo engine can come off as a tad stiff, and may take a bit of getting
used to. Even the simplest of cancels. With some characters (Manami, Yuka), it
can sometimes be difficult to cancel on reaction, or even hit confirm, and you
have to know -for sure- that you will hit with an attack so that you can then
cancel into a special. (Sometimes you even have to wait for a normal attack to
finish most of its animation.) Yet on the flip side of the coin, with other
characters (Chiho) you have to perform the cancel somewhat before the previous
attack connects. It all depends on the character you select.

As what might be expected from early CPS2-type fighters, there are a number of
link combos. AVG does not have a chain combo system, so everything is more or
less a link. If you take a look at the frame data in my MaxFAQ, you will see
that nearly every character`s normal attack causes a great deal of frame
advantage that can be utilized for links. Yuka can hit with Crouching HP, and
cause enough hitstun to link on Standing LK. Ayako`s Crouching LP causes over
12 frames of hitstun, allowing her to link into practically any of her basics.
Even Satomi can hit with a Standing HP, and follow with a Standing LP.

Both 1- and 2-frame links also exist. 1-frame links which involve using the
same attack button, like Kaori`s Crouching HP > Crouching HP, seem just about
impossible to pull off. But others, like Chiho`s Standing LP > Standing HK,
are far easier. 2-frame links, like Chiho`s Crouching HP > Sliding, are a tad
easier too, but still take practice. Sorry, there's no 'plinking' in AVG.

Juggles are also rampant in AVG. Everyone is able to pull off a juggle of some
type, mostly utilizing their special attacks. Eleanor and Manami have some of
the game`s more insane juggles, but each character has their own way to keep
the damage going. In 90% of the cases, juggles can only be fully exploited
against a cornered opponent due to how the characters fly across the screen,
and the automatic pushback the system forces.

Let`s not get it twisted: `Variable Geo´ is/was a hentai series, or rather a
"doujin fighter" in some respects, like `Pretty Fighter X´. It was probably
not meant to have the best type of engine initially. It is playable, but not
really the type of game that can be taken to a great deal of high level play.
All in all, AVG can be very fun, and may involve some time to get used to its
system before you are pulling off some of the more harder combos. The lack of
a training mode doesn`t help either. Thankfully TGL took all the bad parts
about this game and fixed and improved on them in the sequel, but even this
version is worth at least a play through, if not for the story alone.

This is the format that all combos are listed in for this FAQ:

o--- A o--- B o--- C o--- D

o4 :: 4 hit :: Easy :: shouji /
Opponent in corner. j.HK \/ s.LP > s.LK > Sliding
(Jump HK \/ s.LP > s.LK > df + HK)
\
o--- F

A -- Combo Number
The number of the combo. All the combos are listed in descending order
by the amount of hits it does. (Unfortunately there is no in-game way
to properly calculate damage.) The highest combos are at the top and go
down to the smaller ones.

B -- Hit Counter / Combometer
The number of hits the combo will do.

C -- Difficulty Rating
The difficulty of the combo: Easy, Intermediate, and Difficult. 'Easy'
combos are typically basic chain combinations and those with 2-in-1s.
While 'Difficult' involve juggles, links, or specific timing.

D -- Source / Acknowledgment
If the combo wasn`t created by me, credit is listed here where the
source was from. A person`s name, magazine, or even gamertags (in
addition to the forum) can be used here.

E -- The Combo
The full combo, from the first hit to the last. Buttons are denoted by
the 4-button method: LP and HP are the Punches, and LK and HK are
Kicks. Specific and signature moves are cited with their proper
Japanese names (ie - Souryuu Ken, En Ken Fu, etc.) and used within most
of the combos.
Some combos possess button-specific moves in them, such as a `LP Kaen
Zan´. The `LP´ means to use that strength button when doing the move.
Thus, b,d,db + LP. The use of a certain button can deal with things
such as move principles and/or damage. Since Satomi attacks differently
with each Kaen Zan, the LP-version will offer the best overall results
for that particular combo. There are other times where it doesn`t
matter what strength button you use, like for this Yuka combo: s.HK XX
Idaten Soku. If you performed the Idaten Soku with LK or HK, the combo
would be exactly the same.
Each combo listed in this FAQ was performed on Yuka Takeuchi or Jun
Kubota unless otherwise stated.

F -- The Shorthand Combo
This is all the motions you have to do to pull off the combo that`s
above it, but just written in shortened notation. Also useful if people
don`t know the motion of a move by its name.

There is normally a bunch of notes at the end of the combo listings. Above a
note is the number pertaining to whichever combo(s) it`s for. The notes are
there to give insight on complex maneuvers, timing, or any aspects that may
prove to cause confusion.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o1,o2,o3,o4,o5,o6,o7,o8,1o
The last hit of the first HP Hien Geki pops the opponent into the air,
allowing Chiho to juggle with s.HP/HK.

- Combo o1,o2,o3,o4,o5,o8
After the s.HP, time it so that the opponent lands before they are hit with
the second HP Hien Geki. It`s still a cancel, just delayed a split second to
instead hit the opponent on the ground rather than juggle. For whatever
reason, after they land from the s.HP juggle, they are unable to guard for a
couple of frames, which allows the full five hits to connect.

- Combo o1,o9,11
You want to stand close because the L Ryou Baku is supposed to land behind
the opponent. This allows Chiho to hit with the s.LK, which then knocks them
back into the bomb blast. The blast pops the opponent into the air (similar
to the HP Hien Geki), so that Chiho can dash forward to meet them as they
land, catching with her ground combo.

- Combo o2,o3,o4,o6
Getting all the c.LKs to connect, and still keep Chiho in range to add the
c.HP, is very difficult against some characters like Satomi and Yuka. You
more or less have to press LK fast enough so that Chiho doesn`t slide back
much so that the c.HP still catches.

- Combo o5
At least on the Playstation (not sure about any ROMs), when you perform the
Shi Sen Retsu Ken, it causes slowdown. This is actually beneficial for Chiho
because it gives enough time to charge back and execute the HP Hien Geki as
the kunai are flying.

- Combo o9
To make it easier on you, buffer the Shi Sen Retsu Ha during the s.HK by
doing a 360º motion toward the opponent.

- Combo 14
Chiho`s j.LP isn`t that long-ranged, so you have to hit the opponent deep
with the j.HK so you can be in range to hit with the j.LP on Chiho`s
ascension.

- Combo o2,o4,o8,o9
The second hit of the Elirin Sanren Bu gives Eleanor +11 advantage, so you
have to be fast to catch the opponent with the c.HK.

- Combo o3,o4,o6,o9,11,19,2o
Eleanor has quite a few corner juggles that utilize her Elirin Sanren Bu. It
is quite an effective and easy juggle mechanic, but can be tricky to use to
its full potential. In saying that, it might be easier to instead follow the
the shorthand/button input notation of these combos so that you note which
Elirin Sanren Bu is a brand new version, and which are continuations. In all
cases Eleanor can juggle with the first elbow strike attack two or three
times to keep the opponent bouncing. But you also typically have to input
the second hit of the Sanren Bu, which will whiff, but places Eleanor close
enough in range to continue the juggle (ie - Combo o3). The command of the
Sanren Bu is -very- sensitive, and sometimes Eleanor will complete the three
kicks on accident even if you press the Kick button only twice. It seems it
is just an engine flaw, and there is not much that the player can do other
than press the button fast so that it doesn`t accidentally register it more
than the intended number of presses. If Eleanor ends a combo with a Sanren
Bu, do the sequence in order swiftly. The second hit always whiffs, but the
opponent will fall to be caught by the last kick.

- Combo o5,11,12,14,15,21,22
Getting all the LPs to connect -without- accidentally doing the Elirin Mach
Punch is not easy. But you actually have to press the LPs in a rather rapid
pace, but make sure you only press the button the exact times.

- Combo 13
Release down after the c.LP and attack with cl.HK. The charge will be stored
a half-second, allowing you to press up + HP to do the Nouten Punch.

[ Xtra ]
- Combo o2
The Rasen Geri will only hit four times if you input the motion while Kaori
is ascending. Otherwise it will hit three times.

- Combo o5,o9,1o
These combos will not work against Eleanor since the San Shuu does not cause
her to FLOAT. She instead just falls to the ground after the throw.

- Combo o5
This combo is 'magically' difficult because it involves using some strict
timing to activate the throw 'glitch' to work. This is another combo which
is similar to Chiho`s HP Hien Geki ground landing combos, as you basically
are "catching" the opponent with Kaori`s throw on the frame they hit the
floor. But the engine allows it to combo, like the HP Hien Geki. After Kaori
juggles the opponent with the first En Ken Fu (which I found easier to use
the LK-version, but HK is optional too), keep holding forward on the
joystick and press HP just as the opponent hits the ground. Kaori will catch
them with her San Shuu throw as part of the combo, which causes a pop-up to
then allow her to re-juggle with s.HP and another En Ken Fu. I haven`t been
able to catch with another throw.

- Combo o7
The first Shuu Geki should hit really deep against the opponent, around
their legs. Once it hits, continue to hold down on the joystick and keep
pressing HK so Kaori continues to attack while "climbing" the opponent. She
obviously will get more hits against opponents like Eleanor and Jun rather
than Manami or Satomi.

It helps to press both Punch buttons rapidly after the s.HP. That way you
increase your chances of pulling off the Thunder Spark faster to catch.

- Combo o3
Jun is the perfect height for this combo, but some others like Eleanor and
Reimi also work. There is only a 3-frame window that the s.LP will link
after s.HP, then you have to jump immediately and hit j.HK as K-1 is rising.

not knockdown; HK-version will hit once and knockdown.

- Combo o1
This combo should be treated like Chiho`s HP Hien Geki, where you wait a
split second after the juggle to catch the opponent the moment they land on
the ground. Thus it allows the full Satomi Bringer to connect, in addition
to two hits from the Kaen Zan juggle afterward. If you cancel into the
Satomi Bringer early, then just the elbow charge will hit to bounce the
opponent up a little, which still allows for the final Kaen Zan juggle, but
only one hit will catch.

- Combo o6
Getting the second Sliding to juggle can be tricky. Even if you hit with it,
Satomi may not be very deep against the opponent and the HP Kaen Zan whiffs.

- Combo 21
In the open, the LP Kaen Zan is better to use. If the opponent is in the
corner, you can catch with the HP-version.

- Combo o1
I found it easier to hold forward on the joystick while mashing out the five
s.LKs, so that Yuka slightly inches forward to cover small pixels of gaps
and allow them to chain easier.

- Combo o4
For whatever reason, the s.LP > cl.HP will only connect against Yuka. On any
other character it won`t catch, but the cl.HP, c.LK link works on everyone.

- Combo o6
Since you can`t attack during a dash, you have to wait until Yuka completely
finishing her dashing animation before you can execute the s.HK. It`s fairly
strict timing since the LP Ki Kou Dan does not provide a lot of hitstun.

- Combo o7,o8
Linking s.LK after cl.HP is a fairly strict, but not too difficult since
Yuka`s s.LK has a lot of range. Combo o8 is essentially the same combo as
o7, but the s.LK link after c.HP is far easier. Combo o7 is stronger.

- Combo 1o
Immediately do the HP Souryuu Geki after landing to juggle. In the corner
this combo is harder because the game engine will 'push' Yuka away, making
more of a gap between her and the opponent. But it is possible to still hit
with the HP Souryuu Geki.

- Combo 16</pre><pre id="faqspan-2">
The Ki Kou Dan will pop the opponent into the air, allowing Yuka to juggle

The tip of Yuka`s foot from her j.LK is able to catch any average sized

- Advanced V.G. doesn`t by any means have a fantastic combo engine. It`s kind

doubt many people will actually use it because, well, who plays this now?
