Tatsunoko vs Capcom: Ultimate All Stars/PTX-40A

From SuperCombo Wiki

Introduction

THIS IS A PERFECTLY BALANCED VS.

Gameplay

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Is a giant
  • Can hit hard
  • Has a ton of armored normals
  • Unblockable missiles
  • Really good overheads
  • Can pull off sick combos off stray hits
  • Fairly easy yet damaging combos for a VS game.
  • Is a little slow, has to commit if dashing
  • Jumps have 13 frame startup and can be punished during this period
  • Can fight zoning but struggles a tiny bit
  • Because he is the shorter of the two giants, juggling him is easier

7 - - - - Low/Hard Knockdown PTX pulls out his chainsaw... then he doesn’t, he just explodes the entire ground in front of him. Enjoy that 50/50. After doing this, you can easily VS Tackle or Caliber Execution right after.

19 - - - 1600 Low/Sweep PTX does a quick sweep. Can easily link to 2C or 3C.
Move Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Damage
(Billions)
Properties Notes
21 - - - 7037 - Honestly, I forgot this normal exists. There’s very little reason to use this aside from the damage, I guess. Hits twice. Could be an anti-air.
Move Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Damage
(Billions)
Properties Notes
25 - - - 8969 OTG Very little reason to use this in neutral, but it's great in combos or after L-P Buster. It hits OTG, so squeeze out that insane damage. If you’ve got some BBQ, you can OTG twice.
Move Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Damage
(Billions)
Properties Notes
18 - - - 3600 Launcher Kind of forgot he even has a launcher, hitbox is really low. It’s not useful for much.
Move Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Damage
(Billions)
Properties Notes
16 - - - 7200 WallBounce PTX’s grab, tech with 360C. Make sure you learn this because if you don’t, PTX can make this an infinite.

Properties Notes
9 - - - - Overhead Jumping knee, pretty decent.
Move Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Damage
(Billions)
Properties Notes
12 - - - - Overhead Jumping kick, very rare that you’ll see this.
Move Startup Active Recovery Block Adv Damage
(Billions)
Properties Notes
15 - - - - Overhead PTX takes a seat in the air and lets out exhaust, has a VERY wide hitbox and starts up fast. Expect to see it as a surprise overhead when combined with Baroque.
If done as an oki option, it can be very ambiguous.
