If puzzle fighter is anything to go buy, Capcom sure hasn't forgotten about RE5 Jill

Rest In Peace dreams of MVC2 Jill returning.
 
LMAO. CrackedPebbles is on a whole nother level lol. Also, if you super him it makes him only get stronger. It's like anti kryptonite.

lol! That was a fun KOTH though.

MVC fans like as many playstyles to be viable as possible. Marvel 3 had that for the most part of its lifespan (even though by the end it got dominated by Zero/Morrigan, there were still a lot of other strategies that worked).


Talking about zoning got nerfed despite not even playing the game at this stage is jumping the gun IMO. It's nerfed if you are looking at it from the context of Marvel 3 but this is Marvel Infinite.

Here is how zoning has improved in Marvel 3:

*Because of the tag system, every time you get someone to block your projectiles... it is a potential tag set up into a mix up or additional set ups. Something like Jedah throws his Scythe, tags into Dorm who does Dark Hole into stock up.

*Every time someone gets hit with a zoning move, that is going to convert to real damage. Hawkeye's stray Spritzer attack is a potential combo waiting to happen if it lands if you are on your toes.

*You have more tools to zone with like the Reality stone, Soul stone or Space stone. Both their surges and stone give you some advantage in neutral that you never had before.

*Characters taking chip from normals in the air. This is great for someone like Ghost Rider or characters who zone with their normals like Zero (yes guys Zero is a zoner too) or Dante. If they put Sentinel in the game again then he would benefit from this change a lot.


What has been made worse is keep away/runaway though. Not enough mobility/real estate to do that and there's no point in running away either with the meter gain so significantly nerfed. They want the GG style of active zoning in this game where you are playing more fluidly between offense and defense.

Thanks for the advice. planning to charge right to online after some labs when game drops. And I like GG style so that appeals too
 
New puzzle fighter? Oh mobile and dat art good lord...

Capcom truly is governed by the almighty monkey's paw these days no question about it.
 
I assume it's f2p since it's a mobile match-3 game?
 
Ken is looking more and more likely for DLC. Say what you want, but at least people will give Capcom money for this character

I honestly hope not. I get that Menat is too new, but I'm sure Rashid & Akuma would be preferred by most.

the hottest of takes

ken shows up in an all-capcom game

ken suddenly looking more and more likely for DLC

If you think people are complaining that Venom being a "DLC" character would have an uproar, I can't imagine how they would react if Ken was announced for downloadable content. People would throw money at Capcom regardless, but chances are that there would be alot more hate after being left out of MvC3 (and replaced by Viper).

What stone do you think would be the best for Zoning? I think space.

Well considering that Space Zone "pulls" your opponent towards you, I would imagine that Zoners will probably avoid this one (unless if they base their strategy around the cube of shame, to which it'd probably be silly to zone someone out who can't even move to begin with as opposed to you forcing them to not move). Reality though definitely feels like a zoner's best friend with the ability to set up a projectile that can track an opponent and the ability to have random attacks fly in during the storm.
 
Reality stone might be better option for Zoners awhile Space seems pretty good for Grapplers.

Honestly it might be both. Space can pull and push, and the box can be utilized from a distance or up close.

Likewise you can just throw out reality orb to zone from a distance, but you can also use it for set up like dorm's orb super.

Every stone seems pretty versatile...well except for mind.

Which now that I've said that will probably be the best stone
 
What does the infinity storm on the time stone do? All I keep seeing is that single move being mashed combo. Do you just get an overall speed boost?
 
He already has an appearance within MVCi. So it's not just that. Also SF only has 2 reps, which is a series low.

MvCI has many series lows.

It can turn Hawkeye into Chun-Li apparently. Definitely will be a rushdown character's best friend.

I was about to say "Tatsunoko vs Capcom" but ironically enough, that had three SF characters (Ryu, Chun-Li, and Alex). Who knows if we will indeed see more, but at least Akuma would have been nice. So many characters being carried over from MvC3, and Akuma isn't one of them?

Akuma is just Ryu, but better. I'd rather see them buff Ryu up so he stands a chance, rather than them waste a slot on Akuma just because "He's been in all the other ones". He's too similar to Ryu so there's no point in adding him. In a meager roster like this, everyone needs to stand out.
 
wonder if Excellent Marvelous Adventures will make a comeback. Gootecks didnt play Marvel but Mike did.

I would definitely enjoy that. If I had any guess they'll probably do a string of episodes, maybe have Combofiend back, etc and then they'll just stop and go back to SF V.
 
There were other characters teased in the background of MvC3, doesn't mean any of those characters will be in the game or return.

Yeah... this did kind of piss off a good number of people considering that they thought this was a tease for Megaman to make a return, when we know that isn't exactly what happened.

...

Had to double check the status of the X-Men characters on this poster really fast. Thought there could have been another joke of how "Capcom killed off the X-Men" much sooner than we thought, but it looks it was split down the middle of those that got slain and apprehended.
