Welcome back, MTHanded!
The streams have been hype. Sucked not to be able to bring the hypeness in the official stream threads._dementia said:

It's causing problems for Evo apparently. None of the MK9 DLC will be active for Evo apparently.Ultimoo said:
It's probably better for MK9. You have to realize how wide reaching a very small nerf/buff is in MVC3.Ultimoo said:
Say they made Gustaff Flame SLIGHTLY more vulnerable when it comes out. Not only is that an automatic nerf to Tron because that is the main usage of her in most teams.... it's a nerf on all those characters who rely on Tron heavily like She Hulk. So She Hulk and Tron drop in tiers.
When She Hulk and Tron drop in tiers, all those characters/teams who were weak against this set up get buffed. Any other character who has an assist like Tron (like Haggar) gets an automatic buff because now there is more reason to use Haggar over Tron. Every character (like Dante) who was very good with Haggar gets buffed too because Haggar moved up a tier as best assist character.
And so forth. The fact that there are pairs and teams mean a nerf on one is a nerf on the whole team. Like if they nerfed Akuma Tatsu that's a nerf on Wolverine too.

Checking in and it seems like things have picked up a bit. Zero will definitely have chance to shine as the game evolves. He's an annoying little bugger with tools that nearly rival Wolvie's stuff.

Played some ranked after a loooong break. Kept getting matched up against people who can't play the game. Fought the same M.O.D.O.K./Captain America/... guy 4 times in a row. The only thing he would do was psionic blaster and shield slash and while it's easy as hell to win against those players it's not very fun.
Next I got matched up against a Dormammu/Iron Man/Phoenix team. Guy wasn't much better but I lost due to messing up my snapbacks then dropping a combo on Phoenix when I had the killshot. Ended up chipping her out with Dormammu's Chaotic Flame but she got the 5th bar on the last hit and lost due to poor defense.
The game then matched me up against the guy again. Killed all his characters at around the 60 second mark and had his Phoenix at 10% health. Proceded to run away the entire time using X-23's aerial dives and because the guy had no clue about the tracking version of her projectiles. Eventually he got frustrated the last 5 seconds, used a meter while Dormammu was chilling in the air. Landed. Chaotic Flame. HYPER COMBO K.......Waiting for the other player.
Not very spectacular because the guy wasn't any good, but oh so satisfying. I'm thinking of switching my Xbox Live region to US again though. Had it set that way since 1 vs 100 and only recently set it to my acutal country again. My fellow Europeans aren't very good at Marvel and the game keeps matching me with those same people regardless of how long I wait between rounds. Don't notice any significant lag difference either and if there is any I'll take the more diverse/skilled player base over what is thrown at me now.

He who pursues two rabbits gets two rabbits.
I dunno if I agree with any of these points. His normals are good, but not that stupid. I've never felt like he was difficult to approach, even with strictly melee characters. He's also rather middle-of-the-road on height, so I'm not sure where you're getting your "difficult to hit" stuff from.Dahbomb said:
Don't get me wrong. I think Zero is an all-around effective character. I just don't see anything he has that's particularly problematic to deal with or anything that gives a particularly high return off of minimal investment when it comes to either execution or risk/reward, at least when compared to the current popular characters.
Baroque would be absolutely retarded without Mega Crash to keep it in check. It would make XF3 look like child's play. And I don't really want Mega Crash in this game; I like spending my meter on hypers.Prototype-03 said:
Those systems worked fine in TvC imo but I wouldn't want them to be x-copied into Marvel.

Nah, Mike Ross got #1. I don't think anybody would have thought he was going to catch that many bodies at SS.

I didn't see any of his matches. Do you have a link and a timeframe for some? Would love to see him do well at EVO in both AE and Marvel.

Oh no. Just in general for hype things, on that list.

As much as I love Mike Ross, #1 has to be Justin Wong vs. Tokido at CEO. Japan beat USA at Marvel. If that's not number one on a list leading up to EVO, what the fuck is? USA vs. Japan is Marvel is going to be the talk of the tourney. We all know Japan is going to body everyone in AE >_>
Bionic marn definitely should be higher too. Also, where's Smooth Viper vs. Noel Brown irl? lol

A really good video of a ranbats in japan where they play "american" games like MK9 and MVC3 (tokkido is there in the video). Guess we found out where Tokkido has been getting soem work in.

Cup your hands around the button and blow into it with your hot air breath (not an insult, I can't think of the damn proper name for it). That's a pretty quick fix that I've used on my stick once.
Also, I've seen a lot of Wolverine talk in this thread. Though we aren't talking about the right problem. His dive kick is fine really, what needs to be nerfed like hell is Berserker Slash. Seriously H+Assist xx Berserker Slash L/M/H is all you need to start a combo. That there is 50/50 block and leads to real big damage. Honestly, dive kick is incredibly easy to block - it's not even an overhead.

Hmmm, I see that being true. Personally I've never had a problem with hitting something before dive kick hits me. I almost always empty jump when in the air (Wolverine exclusive strategy now that I think about it :lol), unless I know something will be safe from that kind of stuff or I know I'm at a higher ground advantage.
Also, when Wolvie OTG's and has to call assist after landing Dive Kick Ground Bounce, doesn't that nerf some of the damage from the second part of the combo? If it does, I'd rather eat that damage than the one from the ground which leads into a Wolvie only combo.
I've always found the Berseker Slash stuff a lot more infuriating. You have to be incredibly lucky with that, as it's essentially a 50/50 on the block left or right deal. You can bait Dive Kick and block > advance guard, pushing him right outside of range again.
I'm not saying Dive Kick isn't a problem at all though, that thing has a seriously chunky hit-box. I'm just a lot more convinced that Berserker Slash is what makes Logan so dangerous.

Ultimatly that costs you nothing, just be ready to tech a grab and you're good, if you have the right assist you'll be able to punish it. The only issue I have with dive-kick is the otg element of it, maybe even the stupid hit-stun on counter hits. X-factor cancelling my blockstun and then killing him in a free combo has become my favourite was to kill Wolvies.
As Touchdown says, berserker slash is a huge issue. It's better than other teleports as it's invulnerable up to the hit, utterly safe, and has a huge hit box meaning it takes less effort to set up that other characters teleport mix-ups. That along with his instant overhead with the ease in which he combos after it, and the amount of damage he gets off of his combos with the dive-kick extension are his best tools.
Using the dive-kick as a way to get in is a vastly over-rated tool, it's easy to see the angle he'll come in at and punish if he does it too high and as I mentioned before it's a free character kill if you have x-factor.

That Lupinko post is DEFINITELY referring to this famous money matchup and only one character of clockw0rk could be coming for Neo like a freightrain...
Well that confirms what I suspected to be the most likely announcement Capcom would make about any new cast. STRIDER IS BACK. Now if we see cyclops, psylocke, rogue, cable and iceman you will have most of the deadly team build characters back.
One at a time I will see the past return to haunt the present.
