Had two satisfying matches today. In one a high ranked guy decides to get cocky and teabag my second ko'd character right when he dies with his Akuma. Cue 20% health Taskmaster destroying his last two characters who both had 2/3s of their health left. Now I know that's not at all uncommon in this game, but punishing his dick move there made it so much better.

Second one was mainly because of Capcom's cruelty of prominently displaying RANK DOWN BATTLE before the match began. Guy seemed super determined not to lose and got a very big head start on me, but the sick motivation I get from possibly ranking this guy down made me eke out a Time Over win. I'm guessing the keepaway I played those last seconds pissed the guy off even more as right after the win I got the Connection lost, game has been terminated message.

It's weird, sometimes stuff like this gives me a skill boost, other times I completely choke because I get too hyped over being so very close to beating High Lords or First Lords and I start making very punishable mistakes. I'm still not that good, but unlike in the past I'm starting to hold my own against players that are good. On the flipside it makes losses against garbage Akuma/Sentinel//Wolverine/Dante/Ryu teams a lot more frustrating. No diss against those characters, I'd estimate my team selection is quite hated as well, but I'm sure everyone has played his fair share of those teams using the more spammy tactics and nothing much else.

Nah, DS3 Analog, surprisingly I can do them a bit better on the d-pad but then I can't do QCF/Bs consistently, so I stick to the stick because those are more valuable to me ;(

I wouldn't recommend that personally, doing shoryukens on a DS3 analog is hard as hell. You should try to keep your inputs to the bottom right (if facing right) the most because it is easy as hell to go up and have them jump.

You will probably notice that you do random jumps a lot. That's the analog at work. I play on the D-pad, much more accuracy.

From the description it seemed more like Tron's assist is less OP, not useless. It was never completely invulnerable but now it's going to be slightly more punishable. And I don't know if we should be continuing this discussion as it's still unconfirmed if it's real or not.

I sent EventHub an email about this, hopefully we can get a reply soon.

tron is like EX-messiah kick stupidly good right now, it get you out of rushdown so well b/c of the great priority and how hard it is to punish. take that away, and she's just a really awkward character with great damage but needs to be inside to pull it off.

curious though....does she get more out of level 3 x-factor than most characters? maybe thats why people love anchoring her?

I used to use both the D-Pad and the Analog before, but then I resorted to only using the analog since it is less physically-taxing. It seems I might have to do that again unless I want to keep losing...

She gets a pretty nice X Factor damage boost. She's a mini-Sentinel. 200% damage boost same as Spencer/Wesker.

D-pad hurts at first but you get used to it and your thumb gets a callous formation on its tip. My left thumb is harder than my right one for this reason.

WHAT? I had no idea it was that much, I always wondered how my crappy anchor Spencer was winning me matches, the more you know lol

Just got confirmation from EVENT HUBS that the patch notes are FUCKING FALSE and someone is trolling hardcore.

Event Hubs said:
Hello, someone is trolling. That story didn't go up on the website at any time today (April 10th), someone just created a fake link. Also, Capcom hasn't made a habit of releasing their patch notes, so they're not going to release them to the press to put up.

If Capcom was going to release patch details, it would be about the old patch that nerfed Sentinel's health, but as far as I know, those details won't be published.

It's possible this could change, but my understanding of it is generally Capcom doesn't release patch notes for their fighters, with some very rare exceptions. Anyway, I'd say this is very fake.

Hope this helps.

I believe that's what you're supposed to do with a bnb, sir.

I really wish you could save replays in this game :(

I'd totally save some of my cooler matches but I have no capture equipment and no desire to get one. A replay mode with a smooth upload to Youtube function would be an awesome feature.

My capture setup is pretty ghetto and I can't play and capture at the same time. I don't need much to be able to play and capture at the same time, I just haven't done it, heh.

I should get that done, though, because it would be nice to be able to upload so more people would be able to tell me what I'm doing wrong/right/etc.

I got confused, and I thought he called himself a "corner god."

It's weird that Dissidia (both games) has a feature to not only save replays, but convert them to a format that lets you watch them later on your memory stick or upload to Youtube later. And yet, MvC3 does not.

the magnetic blast input is really awkward. essentially what I do is 1 rep of the 'ghetto rom' than go into the the fierce flight. it takes the person into the corner no matter where you do it if you SJ up/forward on the relaunch. does 505K meterless, 1.5 meter. i posted the exact inputs last week.

my corner combo is a ghetto hyper grav loop. much easier but not nearly as good, but still 515K meterless dmg and 1.5 bars. overall i prefer meter to damage with magnus, I very rarely use his lvl 1 hypers.

You don't know any BnB combos, Q?

That shit looked more like some souffle shit. It took everything I had to avoid smashing something. Still had good games regardless.

My rank goes like this in terms of usage.

X360>DS lite>PC>Wii>PS3>Dreamcast

I rarely used the damn thing and I'm still trying to shake that bad habit of using it for other things(movies and music). The only multiplayer game I have on the thing in Marvel.

LOL, and I jacked your corner DP combo. It was so inconsistent especially with big characters.

I finally started DHC tricking in actual matches (Spencer to Wesker). I can't express enough how awesome having a touch of death combo is.

I love the Wesker, and Spencer combo, they make such great teammates. One meter I get 650k+, two meters touch of death, or 850k+. Seriously, this team is so mean, but my Spencer sucks fatty balls at the moment.

Ranked is making me rage so hard now. Got knocked back all the way to fighter again, just when I felt things were improving. Been fighting nothing but high, first, second etc lords all day, and I often run into the same damn people I was so glad to get a win in only to get utterly destroyed the second time. I was going for 50 wins and then stop for a while and I've been stuck on win 49 in one hell of a losing streak that just won't end.

I'm guessing the quality of the matches improved towards the end?

I just started using a wired connection instead. This should help improve the quality of all my matches from now on.

Stop playing then.

I've had those losing streaks before and trying to break past them is no use. A situation like that one calls for a nice break from ranked matches and some fun in player matches.

Just did. After I got that last win. Before I got it I ran into the same guy four times in a row. Was on the road for a OCV the fourth time, then he started superjumping + magnum the whole time and I couldn't counter it for the life of me. In the end he beat me again with a sliver of life. God I was pissed. Will never consider ragequitting but it did get me to the point of standing still when the situation was super desperate, which is something I would never do otherwise.

Guess I need some time in the lab. I can do America's favorite combo fine in training mode, but that and assist use after an aerial combo with Wesker is nowhere near ingrained in my muscle memory yet. Also kept dropping simple MMHS combos with him, getting to the MMH then whiffing the S, and with Taskmaster I kept screwing up my second swing after the launch.

Yes it got better after you got back. It was stuttering so much before.
