I just don't think some people realize how much bullshit top players have to deal with in AE.

At least in Marvel you have your own bullshit to help you deal with stuff.

In AE you get knocked down you just have to sit there and take it.

I don't want to have this argument but the irony of this is that I'm watching marvel, hearing Jwong talk about teams that make you watch movies, while reading this post.
 
Unblockables, vortexes, weird hitboxes, spamming, uhmmmm stun? Did I mention unblockables?

One hit dead, Zero, full screen foot dives, unblockables, xfactor 3, happy birthdays, xfactor 3 Vergil, Morrigan shenanigans, Doom missiles, and more unblockables as well.

At least in SF4 you can play a footsie game and try to push someone into a corner. One hit in umvc3 turns into a combo that backs them into the corner and then hope you guess right when you come in.

Yea, they're about even lol.
 
PACK IT UP FLUX! DAMN SCRUB!

Yea man Sakura one crouch MK turns into a 50% corner carry combo where then you have to eat a super ambiguous/unblockable setup.

Its not much different.

Marvel neutral at a high level is the same concept just in a different game engine. Try to push your opponent to the corner where you have a major advantage.

Sakura is hard to play against if you don't know the matchup.

You'd think ChrisG would be winning in SoCal but for the past two weeks, he's been shutout. Alex Myers beat him in a mirror match and just last Wednesday he got taken out by a Balrog player.

Damn you sure as hell know a lot about the game without watching it much...

LMAO @ full screen foot dive though. That shit can be punished by everything. And happy birthday is always the result of a user error so I don't know why that is on there.

LMAO at you not responding to the other stuff. But that's ok, Dahbomb loves umvc3 and his idol Jwong.

Its funny you bring up Chris G bro.

True story he just lost to a Haggar player. Oh and the week before that he lost in a mirror match in Marvel as well.
 
Dat upwards lightning conversion. For some reason you rarely see people confirm that.

EDIT: Both of them got the jitters there. Some really bad chokes close to the end. Justin could've won the second game.
 
I just can't get hyped by marvel anymore: the game is so full of shits that it all boils down to who gets the shittiest thing first.
I just can't get excited anymore by those interminable combos and mix ups on incoming.
Going to bed, I'll catch up on AE's top 8 tomorrow...

EDIT: wow, didn't read the argument before posting... I just came to post this, without realizing it was coming in a middle of a "heated" discussion... Oops.

Watch out now, you'll rustle some feathers of some posters in this thread who have skin made of toilet paper.

Nah man, from what I saw, no one was throwing insults. We were just having a discussion, the whole point of posting on NeoGaf. People disagree, that's why we bring in our points. If you honestly thought we were insulted then I don't even know. We just don't appreciate it when people just question an audience for their preferences when the same can be said about the other. You like miracle whip or regular mayo? Do you man, don't have to take a dump on someone for liking something you don't.

Nothing wrong with not getting "hyped" for a game anymore. It happens with me for a lot of fighting games. Then something will happen and I will be all for the game again, lol.

This has always been the case in Marvel though, in the early days of the game up until now. It's what makes it different and serves as a foundation for the series. You have to create something that your opponent isn't ready for (or the audience isn't ready for if you're watching), which makes it hype.

It's also what makes the neutral even more demanding of the players. It does upset a lot people that it demands a lot of the player though, and people like hucast21 sort of play it off as not mattering because they try to apply Street Fighter conventions to Marvel like "it has no footsies!"

You see that doesn't bother me but god forbid you say something negative about a game in FGC.

Sensitive is an understatement.
Oh right, because negative comments are always better than well articulated criticism, right?

This is an example of probably the worst problem of fighting game threads at large on GAF.
