(C)(DM)(XX)
HCF + A/C, fw + A, fw + A, QCB + A, QCB + A, "Maiden Masher" QCF, QCB + P
Iori must be in corner, opponent near iori. Do "scum gale" hcf + A/C, opponent
now thrown to corner, with some timing, do fw + A, fw + A, fast...timing is
fast for this part, then do "Aoi Hana", qcb + A, qcb + A, slowly, timing is
slow for this part because the opponent has to be hit up to a certain high,
then finally do "Maiden Masher", qcf, qcb + A/C.

(MID)(C)(DM)
Iori 4 x hit Deadly Flower:
Conditions
- opponent in mid-air
- accuracy needed
- opponent in corner or near corner
- 1 stock of super

QCB + A, QCB + C, dn + A, QCB + A, QCB + C, "Maiden Masher", QCF,QCB + P 2/3 "
deadly flower", qcb + A, qcb + C then pause awhile before executing down light
punch cancelled into another 2/3 set of "deadly flower", qcb + A, qcb + C,
then before opponent lands do "Maiden Masher"qcf, qcb + P
Note:A change from qcf A then qcf C is because the qcf C will hit the opponent
higher.  I am not sure if this trick can be an infinite for iori or not since
after the second set of deadly flower, i cannot do another down A cancelled
into a set of deadly flower again.
