Brawlhalla Scythe Combos & Strings Guide (2023)

hello everyone welcome to the video my name is coslex today I am teaching you guys how to play Scythe in barhala if you're gold new maybe Platinum this video is for you I'm just teaching you guys exactly how to improve at scythe and get better let's start with the basics though just to make sure everyone's on the same level we gotta talk about all the attacks on site and their purposes okay first attack I want to talk about is side light um if you don't know uh scyther's active input here I'm going to turn the sounds a bit down Scythe is active input so the side light has two variations so I'm just going to reset the bot here really quick there's normal side light which pops them upwards but then if you hold forward you get that forward side light let me actually show you guys by turning on my controller really quick okay as you can see if you hold forward they get sent forward but if you let go or if you just hold up do the same thing they get sent upwards uh the holding forward side light can go into different combos so for instance you can hold forward into down light or if you don't hold forward you can go into neutral light I believe you can get this up to like two or one Dodge frame depending on decks I'm not so familiar with the Dodge Rams um but that's the same thing with down light so downlight uh if you let go it kind of goes back you can even hold back or if you hold forward kick some forward and again it's different combos right that was not very tight I don't use that combo very often it's definitely not tight um but yeah there's definitely some options you can do um but yeah uh this is called active input if you don't know the mechanic so if you're new to site um active input just kind of sends them in directions that you want to send them um neutral light does not have active input this is just the setup tool that just kind of sets them up into the air which then you can go into other moves that do have active input kind of like neutral air let's talk about the Aerials uh so neutral layer you can send forward like that or you can send backwards like that I'm just kind of doing it you can you can hit it grounded but it's like it's very like specific hitboxing um but yeah that's a forward version or the back version can go into other combos or you can like Delight screwed up to timing I don't play psych that often but I know how to play sight um but yeah anyways so that's a neutral layer next to the side air this is the side there actually one of the best sighters in the game in my opinion I think this is a really really good cider really good for killing especially off stage um this is a move that you're going to want to use the finished combos uh very often um and then we talked to a neutral layer and cider down there is kind of like the opposite of neutral layer you can send them die going downwards or you can Chuck them back and that leads into side air and other combos two more moves you got the recovery it's a very good recovery you can kind of like adjust the movement of it so see I'm like holding forward that gets sent forward so I hold back you kind of like stop the movement a little bit see how like I'm holding back a bit um it's something that people don't really think about but movement in general is very important um so you can definitely like mix it up uh it's just good to understand how attacks move your character um and then next there's also a ground pound this is a great spiking tool um it also is a true combo follow-up which we're going to be talking about later um and yeah it's just a really good spiking tool the hitboxing is really good it uses an activator hitbox so you don't actually have to let go it will auto let go for you um but I still like to let go um as you can see when you swing it downwards because actually I was me letting go there's a little activator hitbox do you see that little circle that's the activator hitbox um when it hits the activator hitbox it actually initiates the move which then throws the combo out or the attack out so that's all all the attacks on Scythe um there's also certain purposes like this is obviously for spiking this is for either like continuing strings or like maybe Edge guarding to a neutral you have your grounded attacks or like down airs and whatnot um they all cover different zones so if you were to like actually draw it out um like take a look at this so if we're talking about dead zones on Scythe so Scythe has like side light which kind of covers here Scythe has down light which kind of covers here and it's the same on both sides so like down Light Side light this is like the spacing um there's also neutral light which kind of covers like this um keep in mind you can even like Dash neutral light so you can like kind of cover like this area whatever it's kind of like these circles you can kind of cover and punish a circle here Circle here there's nothing directly above it um however Scythe like in general just has some really good options you can kind of punish anything in different situations it's one of the most like well-rounded kits it doesn't also cover this tall this is it's like it's to here but still it's like it's really good you can also like jump narrow as well so there's like a lot of other options but uh Scythe in general just has very very very strong coverage um not many dead zones whatsoever for you to kind of get in on site uh be like playing Scythe uh as well so I struggles more with like killing and also damage build up if you're not good okay let's talk about some basic tight strings so you can do things that have like tight Dodge windows so like even like the light side air like this that's two Dodge frames right there I'm not so familiar with the exact Dodge window so please correct me if I'm wrong in the comments of some of these um but like there's like enlightened air that's like two Dodge frames um you could probably end like Sarah four Dodge Ram sir or Dare in there there's a lot of these like Tight Windows like that's three Dodge frames you can kind of get creative with it there's just so many of them um I really recommend just hopping into training mode make sure the bot is set to damage reset and position reset put them in the center of the like Lobby you can and put them in the center by switching it to bot control mode and then just like position reset damage reset and kind of just have fun um I know you don't want to hear that from like a guide video you want me to teach you the best strings but really Scythe is such a creative weapon you can do so much with it um just kind of practice hitting these combos see kind of how the flow works just have fun with it that was the first thing I did when I was practicing Scythe where you just want to like continue these strings and just kind of see what works um especially against players it's kind of like I wouldn't say like you're experimenting but you can even watch some top players see what they do um and see how the sandstorm hit these really long strings as you can see some are definitely tighter than others so here's a really good option I just want to teach you guys it's a really tight option so obviously satellite goes up to end light but here's the option this is actually true on like certain attacks and defense neutral light neutral air and then you can kind of keep going so like mayor Sarah is actually a true combo on very specific circumstances as you can see there I got I think the Enlighten there is like one Dodge frame yeah and light and air is one Dodge frame and then there Sarah is true so you can actually do this true it just depends on the character let me show you um so I believe you can play zero against High defense so it's got zero against oh no like Roland I think you can get this true it's very situational it's not situational just really depends I'm not gonna do that there you can see that in there Sarah's trip just depends on the defense so this is like a really good damage build up site tool option and then you can kind of just keep going with it you see how crazy that is um that's probably the best option I see a lot of sight players go for this and you can kind of just keep going it's just um Nursery basically so it's and like jump in there Sarah narrow jumps there and there jumpsuit yeah you might want to do a recover if you run out of jumps don't jump in there folks you can kind of just keep going after that it's just really good damage to build up especially um it's just a tight option so if your opponent doesn't have a Dodge then this is really good um if you don't know already um if you're new Dodge is in brawlhalla you get them back in the air every three seconds approximately so if you see them dodged in the air you have three seconds to hit them with like as many follow-ups as possible if they touch the ground they get it back in about a second and a half um so just watch out if they touch the ground but for instance like take a look at this if I set the roll end to spot Dodge right and then I get this read and then you can kind of keep going all of those hits until that last recovery was confirmed um That's How Strong sight can be if you catch these Dodge ones so just really like keep that in mind and then you catch another Dodge reader and you kind of keep going right um Dodges are everything on site that is how you improve it's understanding how you can kind of keep following up so for instance if you hit a down light then they Dodge then you can go for this combo right and then I dodge again you get that other Dodge read this is how Scythe works you practice these combos that are fun you see how tight some of them are like uh let me stop the Dodge like I don't know their side like two Dodge rims right that means they probably can't jump out of it maybe on frame one jump they're probably not going to jump out of that so if you catch a Dodge then maybe go for that option right and then right if you hit the side light and you go for a neutral light then you hit this catch another Dodge and then you bring them off stage you get what I'm saying here a lot of Scythe is paying attention to dodge reads so here's how you practice that okay in training do what I did before that I told you guys damage reset on position reset on but then make the AI Dodge randomly what this will do is it will make you practice reacting to Dodges instead of reading Dodges reacting is very important uh so for instance if I do a side light see how they Dodge and then I can kind of do something you got this dodge back because you touch the ground so spot Dodge there I'm in a position to react Dodge it again we're gonna string them Dodge again I could have kept going so we end light Dodge down I was not ready because I'm bad Dodge down I should have went forward there I was getting ready to be light it's gonna get Dodge again and we keep going you kind of like get used to them having guards right um it's just kind of practice around with Dodge so you know it doesn't have a okay guys Dodge back there whoops um it's just literally remembering that timing it's about three seconds in the air second and a half if they touch the ground and just practice your strings kind of have fun you get a Dodge and we're gonna go he touched the ground there so he got it back touch the ground or maybe dance I already did I caught it without down there down there dodge down he's gonna have his Dodge again okay that is again and you can like dare ground pound and whatnot you kind of get what I'm saying um there's just so many like ways for string on site that's like you kind of just have fun with it you can literally create your own combos be creative it's really fun this weapon um it's probably the only weapon in the game where I'm like I'm not teaching guys a ton of set Combos and strings you can really be creative there's like unlimited possibilities with sight um you can hit some of the nastiest strings obviously there's a lot of recurring ones that you'll see but you're only gonna like get the practice by just kind of having fun and training and just like play sight just have fun now before I go I want to say one thing there are some true combos on site um there's some situational ones beside the edge I believe you can like recovery side light it's really weird or like recovery Ser um but also off stage you can actually dare ground pound as a true combo it's a bit hard to set up in training um if you are going to set it up in training here's kind of how you do it is you like set the bot to like reset off stage um and then you have to like make sure they're damaged is kind of like enough and then you can even like dare into like Darren stuff like that it's like yeah there's a lot of options you can do off stage a lot of it just comes from like practice see that that wasn't true because I kind of fat fingered the input um but it can be maybe a bit later in health actually it's a bit of a tough input I remember the first time doing it took me a little bit like okay so that's the right damage so it's five again you get a feel for this over time this is why I'm not telling you guys to just practice these true combos because they're pretty situational a lot of them and it's not going to be how you improve on site how you improve on site is just practicing Dodge reads and just practicing neutral um just understanding how Dodges work in the game I got four dollar trims you can get this true I'm just kind of bad right now I also like I don't play Scythe professionally but I can play at a top level um but yeah it's just kind of just having fun seeing what works create your own Combos and I'm gonna link down below a combos video it's telling you every Scythe true combo um some video I recommend I I don't know which one yet but I'll make sure it's good if you want to learn these specific two combos check that video out if you like this subscribe uh do your thing I'm actually gonna play one game with Scythe um you guys are just gonna see like a couple Clips just to show you what I'm talking about I'll play an experimental a lot of Scythe is just winning neutral and then what I talked about like learning how the Dodge system works and going for fun creative combos see I took a Dodge there and then I'm just gonna confirm them off stage so keep them off he has his Dodge all right just keep him off stage see what I mean it's just like watching out for dodges and just practicing your attacks I didn't even need any two combos there nothing that dare say is a really good option if you just catch a Dodge almost there we go I got that dark ground pound I thought that was me it's cause versus cause I'm the Artemis guys I promise no spot Dodge no Dodge oh I jumped there I thought I was gonna hit and they're good no way they just disconnected that's how you make people disconnect with Scythe everyone thanks for watching um obviously true combos help um especially if you're trying to go pro but um if you wanna play Scythe just do what I said thanks for watching this video I'll see you guys later peace
