Well if you want to make it really easy for you on stick, just assign A G A right next to each other.

Never helped me. I started doing the input with two hands instead of one and now I see myself actually getting them with the flash, only twice, but it's progress.

I'm still hitting the regular agA on the end of 3(B), SCH K, agA but it seems to miss a lot too.
 
Hmm if that doesn't help you there is another way on stick where your A needs to be either next to your G or under your G.

If its under, use your index finger to slide from A down to G and immediately press A with your middlefinger, like in one fluent motion.

If A is next to your G, slide with your middle finger from A to G and immediately press A with your index finger. Again like in one fluent motion.

I sometimes miss my aga as well after SCH K BE, somehow the buffer window is strange to get used to.
 
Still working on it. I have better luck doing it with either both hands or just my thumb and pointer finger. It's just weird timing it correctly and actually getting the A to go off after ag. I'm trying to think of it as two slides: aG gA, seems to be helping with my technique. When it comes out consistently and as iagA I'll do a video to elaborate. I appreciate the other videos, it's just I feel that I have more professional equipment for recording/demonstrating.
 
I bring my pink down to A then G, and my ring finger comes down upon the A. i have 90% A:G:A consistency. hope this helps
 

Just got to thinking about it, and I might stop agAing completely out of SCH K BE. Just feels to be so random.

Anyone have any tips for the actual iagA and how they do it? I've never seen anyone do it consistently, nor an explanation for it.
 
Is this unique to me, or does anyone else end up in pain after playing Sieg due to agA wearing down your thumbs?

Fucking hell dude, it messes with my agA consistency when my mind wants to combo and my body no longer wants a thumbnail shaped gouge in my digits. I need like under-thumb-nail-armour.
 
This is not unique to you, we all have this pain caused by iaga's. Its the way this move is balanced, you'll get this awesome step killer but you have to suffer for it.

Guess i am double butt fucked btw because i play bass and always have blisters on my fingers from slapping anyhow.
After long swagfried sessions even my wrist starts to hurt because i use the R1 trigger, so i do iaga completely with one hand and the motion my hand does is kinda excessive.

I suffer a lot from physical and mental anguish due to iagA. I made a video for how I input the move, and doing it repetitively isn't fun on the hands. Also the fact that it doesn't want to come out when I input it sometimes doesn't help either.

I really wish they would revert the input to being simple like NM's agA. I don't see why they should make the execution so much more difficult. It feels like I'm playing aPat sometimes.
 
I feel no pain, only the exhilarated ecstasy of knowing that the flicking of my fingers propels 200 pounds of German steel through the air to inevitably crush the face of my foe. The rush of electricity that courses through my very being as I hear the cracking of walls and the futile screams of those who are thrust into the great abyss beyond, the power - MY GOD THE POWER, IT'S THE ONLY TIME I FEEL ALIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIVE!
 
On pad it was square (right thumb) ~ L2 (left middle) ~ L1 (left index).

On Hitbox, it's square (right index) ~ x (left index) ~ square (right index).

In both scenarios the move is divided between hands so I'm not fatigued by doing it.

Play smarter, not harder.
 
Square>X> off with my right hand, then L2 for A+B+K button, no pain, no stress. Try playing Alpha Patroklos. But now that I have my new GIMX, all I press is D
 
Yoshimitsu's 2a:B LITERALLY has caused my thumb nail to dig into my controller because of how much I have used it, that and alpha's 2143a:B
 
I actually debated building my own stick just for Sieg with a button I could press with my left hand near the stick so agA could stop giving me so much drama.
 
^I would just learn it. You were doing it fine towards the end of our last session. Plus having a button to do it without actually doing the input just isn't manly. :P

Do the move with no button binds :D thats how I do yoshi's parting thrust move with only my thumb lol But I still wasn't consistent with parting thrust tho....
 
Lately I've been doing my agA more gently, so to speak, and my consistency has only gotten better compared to when I was trying to hammer it out.

Sometimes it's good to take a break for 2-3 days, come back, and try agA again; seems to make things easier to pick up.
