Yeah those air loops look really nice. I have a pre-made team with him on it that I might mess around with just to try out his advanced combos. The team is zero magneto wesker.

Does anyone have the notation for dantes long hammer combos? The ones where he otgs 50 times a combo.

Marn ran that team for a short time after the Sentinel nerf. If you start Magneto you can DHC glitch into Zero for some real bullshit damage.

LOL which one. I can provide the notation if you can link a video of it.

I've seen it on stream a couple times. Any one will do. I just want to get a base combo that I can experiment with.

Yeah I always cringe when he takes a characters life with that. It just seems too easy.

You really don't need Hammer in any Dante combo because any where you can use Hammer to cause a Hard Knockdown you can just replace it with j.S. Unless it's a starter with Hammer, in which case this is the combo you can get after a Hammer:


Hammer (air QCF+L ~ QCF+L), Volcano (DP+M), j.M, Air Play (air QCF+M), j.H, *S, Charge Shots (mash H during S), Pop Shredder (mash S during Charge Shots) ** > Charge Shots (mash H during Pop Shredder or S) > Stinger (f+H this will cause the 1 allotted wall bounce in the combo) xx Bold-cancel (Any attack + S), Air Trick (down,down + S), The Hammer (air QCF+L~QCFL... you can also do j.S instead of this here), Volcano > Beehive (QCF+M ~ QCF+M)this will cause the once allotted ground bounce in the combo) *** Volcano > Beehive xx Million Dollars or LVL3 Hyper.

You can adjust the final Volcano/Beehive into Stinger + Bold cancel into Jet Stream into Fireworks for additional damage.


If you want more Dante combos, I highly recommend you check out the SRK MVC3 forum under Dante's character section. Check out the combo thread/video threads, those guys have some really crazy BnB combos, most doing over 700K damage with 1 meter.

There is a huge free styling aspect to Dante, you can adjust that combo to your liking with additional moves if you want.

I have added asterisks where you could branch of to a different combo:

*Here instead of doing Charged shots Pop Shredder, you can do regular launcher, jump H, Killer Bee into day 1 Dante combo (Sky Dance into Reverb Shock > Million Dollars). You can also use the ground bounce of Killer Bee to Devil Trigger and do more powerful combos after the ground bounce, DT, launcher which involves Vortex, air raid and double jump S into combos on the ground.


**After the Pop Shredder you can also do a jump cancelled Air Trick (down,down up + S) to cancel the launcher into teleport up and then do Hammer to bring the enemy down. Or you can add Acid Rains after the Pop Shredder in similar fashion (QCF, up/forward+L ~ QCF+L a few times) and follow that up with Hammer. We are doing a tiger knee motion here for the first Acid Rain input to cancel the jump frames to follow up after the Pop Shredder, same concept as the Air Trick after Pop Shredder.

***As this is a ground bounce you can do additional fancy stuff here. After the first Beehive move you can again do a Stinger Bold cancel into Jet Stream > Fireworks xx Million Dollars or LVL3 Hyper. You also might be able to do the Grapple here with Bold cancelling Stinger to activate the DHC glitch. Also instead of doing Fireworks after Jet Stream, you can try to go for the just frame move Dance Macabre which also sets up the DHC glitch if you get it out and super cancel into Devil Trigger afterwards.


Regular starter for Dante (ie. not starting from Hammer or j.S) is essentially any jump in ground series, Stinger bold cancel Volcano, jump cancel, j.M, Air Guitar. This basically does the most solid damage and leads to generally everything of Dante, even his day 1 combo.

HADOCON II IS BACK.

Does Mags have to super jump to get a tri jump fierce?

Thanks. I think I found one I can use consistently.

Yeah lol, I didn't expect him to type all that out. I was more looking for a video demonstration. SRK should work though since most character forums have good video sections with advanced combos in it.

He did but he didn't provide a link.

I've seen it on stream a couple times. Any one will do. I just want to get a base combo that I can experiment with.

If you want to try practicing hammer combos you can do M, H, S, Mash H, Prop Shredder, After Prop Shredder you can super jump and do hammer, or you can cancel into Air Trick/tele and do hammer after.

If you want to do this then you have to do down, down, up + S version of teleport. It's in my first post along with how to do Acid Rain loops.

Most videos don't explain stuff like this and the Bold cancel stuff either.

 

[jdub03]

Does Mags have to super jump to get a tri jump fierce?

Yes. You can trijump with L using a regular jump.

Interesting views here. I liked the discussion besides it being done to death already. Even more interesting:

That iPlaywinner/Hadocon trailer was hype as fuck.

 

[notworksafe]

Hm. Doom is an weird character to play but he seems like a lot of fun, kind of like a Magneto type but with odder movement.

Any Doomers out there have tips for playing him? I'm messing around with Wolvie/Sent/Doom and Doom is def my weakest link at the moment.

 

[Face it Tiger..]

I mained doom for a while. learn your m&m combos.

Oh duh! Max, forgive me! D:
Watching now!

Anyone else wish there was a 1v1/2v2 mode for versus or training (or both)? The former would really help me focus on certain things, with my characters.

2 videos you should be checking out.

Maximillian's guide to Dr. Doom <-- Watch Episode 4 as well
Psycho's Dr. Doom combo compendium (it slows down and freezes after every hit with notations)

You should probably see the compendium first because Max is going to use some of those combos in his guide too.

Yes, I am hoping for one in SMVC3. They already have that for Event mode.

 

[Grecco]

He does.

Not a shock. I thought the Team Spooky show was more honest about the whole thing.

 

[Neki]

To be fair I kinda agree with Mike Ross, it seemed like Justin Wong has just playing at 60% instead of 100%, and he still won with his "troll" team. It's like when Q plays me. D:

 

[Grecco]

imo he did the job for his good friends (he let them win)

but its been rehashed over and over so no sense into opening this can of worms again. Instead lets talk about hadocon

I guess our definitions of playing to give someone a chance is different.

Watching Hadocon, only been MK9 so far. Button checks in MK9 are still godlike though, shout outs to the best button check config ever.

edit: look, they're even blowing it up on the stream.

Thanks! Watched part 1 of the Doom guide and I'm adding your links to my YT favorites so I can watch them in front of the TV while practicing.

Very good guide by the way, Max. It's already been super helpful!

 

[Alucrid]

TS's like two hour long stream > Crosscounter

As far as PowerUp discussions go.

 

[Dahbomb]

I wished more people would make characters specific guides or combo videos that showed notation plus slowed down/added notations and other notes on the character.

You can't really learn much from random high level combo videos, especially the ones that are more situational to do. They are more for just watching and "OOHs AAAHs". MVC3 has a fuck ton of combo videos already, would like to see more elaborate help videos and characters strat/team synergy videos.

Agree.

 

[TheSeks]

You could say this for most any fighting game video on Youtube, though.

 

[Deleted member 13876]

Couldn't find any matches no matter what filter I used, not even player matches. Spend a good 45 minutes in training mode before I eventually gave up.

Spoiler

It's like I'm suddenly playing on PSN.

 

[Wizpig]

I bought the game around a month ago, £31 and totally worth it, i love it.
I main Chun, Ryu and Phoenix... i'm a noob but the game is more easy and fun than MvC2 if you are a noob (i guess the pro players still prefer MvC2), so i'm totally ok with it.

The thing is... I'd love more free DLC to keep the game alive (not that it has problems right now) but yeah, Capcom.

I think at least those CPU missions could be free instead of 80MSP, right? christ.
Waiting for a deal of the week for Jill/Shuma.

Oh and most hated character...

Spoiler

Hulk? Sentinel? nah, it's Dante.

 

["God's Beard!"]

I haaaaaaaate slowed down notation. I already saw the damn combo, it doesn't look different broken up. If anything, show me the dude's hands.

 

[TheSeks]

Showing the hands is similar to the notations, isn't it?

In any case, the biggest issue with Youtube videos is that they aren't too educational. Sure, you can parrot back the combos if you take the time and mimic them, but they aren't too helpful.

Some of us can't spend all our time in the lab theorycrafting combos though.

No, because you get the rhythm when you can hear the buttons. I listen to the buttons I press and memorize the timing from that so I don't get sloppy moving from screen to screen. Button rhythm never changes, lag does. Slowed down notation doesn't show you anything you didn't already see, I'd argue it shows you less.

 

[Dahbomb]

I am talking about stuff like Dante's bold cancels where stuff like going into Beehive into Jet Stream isn't exactly as simple as doing the two moves together... you actually have to do Volcano > Beehive, Stinger, Bold Cancel, Jet Stream.

When you do the combo in normal vision, you will pretty much only see volcano/beehive/jet stream when in fact there are two extra things going on in there that is not obvious to the naked eye.

This sort of stuff isn't obvious in combo videos but if video makers slowed down and showed where they pressed what and with what particular timing (if needed) then it is helpful for beginners.

And again I was talking about beginner level stuff.

 

[Varjet]

Those Doom combos on the Hadocon stream are ridiculous.
edit: Oh, there's a seperate thread, nice.

 

[Neki]

Those Doom combos on the Hadocon stream are ridiculous.

It was basically a touch of death combos for two meters, no XF or DHC glitch, so good.

Perfect example of what Justin meant about the DHC glitch stifling creativity. That was glorious to watch.

 

[Fersis]

So ive been playing around with these character but i dont have a team yet:
Ryu,X-23,Haggar,Hulk,Taskmaster,Dr Doom.

Any good combinations?

 

["God's Beard!"]

X-23, Taskmaster, Doom

 

[kirblar]

Haggar, imo, is a counterpick character for dealing with all-rushdown teams. He's blown up too easily by zoning to make him viable against a random field.

 

[Dartastic]

How the fuck did I just win a match against a master lord (after playing him 3 times in a row nonetheless!) and rank down from a Lord to a Ranger?!!?

 

[Teknopathetic]

"How the fuck did I just win a match against a master lord (after playing him 3 times in a row nonetheless!) and rank down from a Lord to a Ranger?!!?"


Ranger isn't a rank below lord, your title is based on which ever of your statistics is highest.

 

[Dartastic]

OHHHHHHH

...I always thought I got it when I was on my way to being demoted. Also, I have no idea how the game handles rankings. I can beat high and master lords, yet I can meet fighters that absolutely wreck me. This confuzzles me.

 

[Neki]

I really wanna know what the statistics actually mean. What is stability? D:

What statistics? Are you talking about the stability, defense, advanced defense, offense, and advanced offense categories?
