What do you mean? It's a fighting game, it's obvious there are combos you need/can pull off. There is actual timing required in pulling them off as well. What, you think it's a macro or a single button press that will trigger one or something? It's called perfecting your playstyle, nothing more.

He's saying that combos, and the ability to execute combos, aren't the be all, end all of fighting game skill. At least, that's the way I understood it.

The possibility to do an inescapable 24-hit, three-super combo off a crouching fierce is kind of a two-edged sword: While they certainly look impressive and take some ability to pull off, it can devolve the game into a "jab first or die"-contest of sorts.
