Yeah, but then I'd need to use Wesker or someone. I'm just trying out basic assist combos cause I wasn't using them with Zero before.Ultimoo said:

Phoenix' health regenerates that quickly? Keep in mind she's losing red life as well. Wouldn't your average 500K BnB finish her off? Isn't that even still a detriment to the team for having such a low health character on point that can't make up for it in damage output unless she has 5 stock?Ultimoo said:
Sorry, I think we're arguing about different things. I was talking to Grecco mainly who was saying that Zero doesn't need an OTG to combo off his throws and mid-range busters, but I said that I hadn't seen anyone actually do it without an OTG assist. Proceed!Parallax Scroll said:
Yes, she regenerates very fast.

I'd say it basically doubles her health at the expense of red health, as long as the opponent is near you during a combo, which means beam hypers or ranged hypers would be very strong against it, not sure about cinematic hypers though. X-factor increased damage would also nullify it, but you're trading x-factor for a character so not sure. Once she's very low, tag her out and hope you get 5 bars, I think it could work.

Her red life heals almost immediately when she has healing field up and you're comboing her. So her life almost doubles unless she's being hit by something that doesn't leave her right next to the other character. Like ice storm or something.

In that case I think you're right. Using Zero's own OTG is only easy if he lands near the opponent (such as in the corner).Ultimoo said:Sorry, I think we're arguing about different things.

I'm having good early results with launcher, M M Buster, teleport down, Shippuga into launcher. I find it easier to execute than Buster > Raikousen L > S.

Which one, the Raikousen? Everyone does that.Solune said:
I honestly don't know which followup is better, but I wasn't even aware of the teleport->shippuga option until I saw ChrisG do it.
Also, watching ChrisG is another reminder that I need to learn to play with my Buster charged. For practice, I'm trying to do Zero's 3x ground loop and start charging on the first hit so I can fire it for a relaunch when I'm in the air. I haven't quite gotten it yet.

Anyone know where I can find the ChrisG match from yesterday? I want to see his Zero.

I actually haven't been watching a ton of Marn lately. Also his Magneto steals like half the show. And I guess the obvious difference is that teleport down requires the corner, while Raikousen works anywhere I think.Solune said:
I played a few rounds of Zero vs Deadpool at long range, using charged buster shots and the occasional sent drones vs Deadpool's guns and grenades. We were generally about even on life loss, but Deadpool still tends to give me trouble when I run Zero/Haggar/Sent.

All joking, but I really don't think Wesker is as good as people say. Just jump.USD said:

Justin is on another level.God's Beard said:
I was tempted to say Yipes too, and I think he's holding back showing what he's got because the little we've seen so far has been some of the most solid play ever. But alas, we haven't seen him in enough matchups. I would say possibly Remix being up there too.Grecco said:
Yeah I agree completely. That's why I didn't place Marn immediately because he seems susceptible to this stuff. Not even choking, just bad luck.Ultimoo said:

Nobody worthy of top 32 will get randomed out by Dark Phoenix. If a Phoenix player makes it that far, it will be purely on skill. Nobody gets that far at EVO for nothing. It's like Skill said, using Phoenix is a gamble, using her over and over in a tournament will make it really difficult to get consistent results.
By the time EVO rolls around, people will be more than prepared for anything people think is crazy. That's why it's the world championship. What I'm really interested in is how many people are going to show up for each game. Has to be at least a few thousand. If anything surprises people, I think there's going to be a lot of hidden Team Hyper Combo setups coming out of nowhere. That, and people using characters' 2nd or 3rd "best" assist for really specific teams. Marvel 3 is going to become a really scary game, really fast.

Its crazy that those 2nds are to Yipes and Sanford respectively (2005 was Duc Do and Justin came 4th IIRC).
As for EVO its gonna be interesting since we got more people to look out for like Combofiend, Marn, Ryry, Chris G, etc and I'm glad to see Yipes is back in the game but i wish Sanford would do the same.
I believe so, but really, Yipes came out of left field and never dropped a combo once. I think dude is intentionally playing low profile to catch people up from under during Evo. He's not entering tournaments where he is actually at and all. I really do think he never dropped a combo once.Grecco said:
Too many good players to remember. I would put Chris G up there too, in top 8. Chris G, Remix, Marn, perhaps Combofiend (yes he's godlike but we haven't seen much of him), Yipes, Wong, and two others I can't decide on.
Thing about Chris G is, he knows how to use X-Factor best and doesn't just leave it for the anchor. He'll X-Factor mid combo level 1 or 2, and carry it through to help kill 2 characters throughout the time its active.
I'm just excited for the next major here. When is the next Evo-linked tourney? Is it CEO?

UFGT, May 27th. Oz's EVO seeding status was given to Shadaloo Showdown; a pretty magnanimous gesture by Oz's organizers.

That's not amazing; what's really amazing is that JWong's mastery of the game is so complete that he can and will destroy people with every single character in the cast, a rarity in a game with 56 characters.
He effing won WCW MvC2 LOW TIER.
No bitching about old school Jill please.

Really wish you could save replays. I use Wolv/Hulk/Haggar (I know, sucks) and the other guy also had Hulk, so I put him on point. Started the round with the Mike Ross strategy, and so did he. Except I was in a trolly mood, so I kept hammering on throw, so did he. First 10 seconds the match was nothing but throws being tech'd from both sides.

Dang, I LOVED using Cammy and Jill on my team in MvC2. The memories came flooding back when I saw that video. Too bad Justin didn't go for the relaunch after Maximum Cammy.

Yes; a list:

It's not just that there are so many good players, but that a lot of players seem to be hiding things, or working on secret teams they haven't come out with yet. It's pretty hard to judge someone when they're not even playing their main team in public.
