It isn't mandatory, but it will make the combo easier.<br />Trial 09 - Easy Way:<br /> 1 - Press LK+HP to activate HD Mode.<br /> 2 - Do "↓↘→↓↘→ + any punch"<br /> 3 - Keep holding ↗ during the super move.<br /> 4 - When Maxima jump and start to fall do "↓↙← + LP+HP"<br /> 5 - Do "↓↘→↓↘→ + LP + HP" in the moment you touch the ground.<br /> 6 - During the super move do "→↘↓↙←→↘↓↙← + LP+HP" to complete the trial. Try to do the entire motion slowly and finish it in the moment the last attack comes out, and also keep LP+HP held after finishing the motion to increase your chances to get the "max cancel".<br />Trial 09 - Hard Way: this combo won't work with the normal jump, unless you change Takuma's position. At this specific distance the challenge mode puts Maxima, you have to use Hop or Hyper Hop to get faster in the ground to be able to hit the neomax.<br />- Trial 10: after activating HD Mode press HK immediately, since this move is slow, if you delay it Takuma will probably block.<br /><br />Controller Layout:<br />- Arcade:<br />LP LK LP+HP LK+HP<br />HP HK LK+HK LP+LK<br /><br />- PS4 Pad:<br />LP LK<br />HP HK<br />R1 = LP+HP<br />R2 = LK+HK<br />L1 = LK+HP<br />L2 = LP+LK<br /><br />Total time spent (Easy Route): 10 minutes
