NNNNNGHHH! So hyped - I actually booked Friday and Monday off for Evo. I can't afford to go this year but at least I can get paid to sit at home and watch it.enzo_gt said:

The Morrigan combos just make me feel like shit when I notice how much damage she is inflicting...Dahbomb said:
They really need to shorten the intervals between her Shadow servant blades for more damage potential(especially in the corner)and they need to fix her finishing shower by increasing the speed and damage of the missiles.
My friend is experiencing the same thing. I have not dealt with such disparities in a while, but ranked was so broken at first that this was a regular occurence.shaowebb said:
I'm constantly amazed by how shitty large companies can be when it comes to making a decent game. Makes me want to go back to BlazBlue.
Yeah, you want to avoid picking ranked and player directly. Always start in offline arcade or training mode with automatic player/ranked matches. The manual online search function is broken in this game even now.KorrZ said:

Hahaha awesome. I don't play IV much anymore either, but I still know how to play it. Marvel has gotten the majority of my attention.
Good to hear there's at least a handful of GAF in attendance.

He who pursues two rabbits gets two rabbits.
Not really. It accelerates damage scaling quite a bit as-is, and the clone doesn't get any X-Factor boosts. It's difficult to combo into as well (pretty sure that requires specific assists or DHCs), so it's not always feasible to activate it later in a combo where scaling has already set in severely.Dahbomb said:
It's really only useful as a zoning tool. It doesn't add much to combos unless you get them in a Soul Fist loop from fullscreen.

It drives me crazy that Taskmaster's arrows OTG and are so fast while Morrigan's missiles are slow and can't even OTG. They get beaten by many hypers as it is so they're pretty much useless outside of Shadow blade combos. Probably one of the worst hypers in the game, but I can't complain too much since her level 3 and Astral vision are pretty good.
I've actually come to notice how good Shadow servant is too. It beats a whole bunch of hypers in the game cleanly. It just SUCKS ASS in the corner.

I've come to terms with the fact that I don't have the execution to do the things I want to with Iron Man. As a mobile footsie character I feel like I can play him well, but the combos and resets I need to do as a phoenix player just aren't things I can do right now. I've been practicing one fly combo all day and it's fucking driving me nuts. Especially when I found out that the invincibility frames for alpha counters don't carry iron man into the active frames for repulsor blast, I lost a lot of hope in my play style. For the way I play Iron Man right now, Doom does everything better, and I already have much, much more experience with him.
So with that in mind my main team will now be X-23(Ankle Slicer)/Doom(Rocks)/Phoenix(Drive)
I considered Taskmaster because I have a lot of experience with him as well and he's easy to use as well as the DHC trick, but I'm more comfortable with Doom and I feel like I can build meter with him better. Unfortunately, Dormammu is on backup again. I was surprised at how quickly X-23 appealed to me. It's like playing Dudley.

why would you worry about alpha counters if Phoenix is on the team, don't you want to conserve meter for her?
i'm finally starting to use push blocking believe it or not. lol some of the things i should be doing i'm really picking up late like hitting low. don't know how i got so far in ranked not doing those things regularly. still not used to push blocking though. but now i can at least push away fast characters like morrigan before she can get me and push other characters away like akuma and spencer who are tricky at blocking. i'm also regularly throwing now too. i'm coming for you sixfortyfive and getting my revenge.

man i have the opposite problem of push blocking away punishable moves. i'm so used to doing adv. guard that i forget its better not to use it sometimes.
and does anyone have a good way to get in on phoenix with wesker when shes doing the h fireballs?
yeah i'm definitely not push blocking everybody away since some characters are highly punishable with taskmaster and haggar. i'm only push blocking problem characters. you know one thing i'm noticing on ranked is the lack of weskers. wonder if its because he seems to be gone from most tournament winners teams. i still play plenty of them but definitely not as much as i used to.supasmashed said:

We do not, and I think it's generally because of a lack of Spectator Mode.

For me, moving forward, no spectator mode, no buy.smurfx said:

I'd buy it used if that were to happen and I'd have only gaffers to play with since none of my friends would even touch it without spectator.

I instantly leave any lobby I am in where I am not the next person to fight.
I'll pay full price for Super MvC3 regardless of the turnout. I fully accept that Capcom owns my wallet on this game.
well that is why i said it was a ranbat not an endless lobby like the sf guys have. i was thinking of making a even list of players, do an initial pairing so that everbody starts playing at the same time. (is up to the players to record the matches if u want gaf to see them) doing it once a week and at the end of the month the one with the most wins, well winsKarsticles said:

Because Repulsar Blast pulls opponents into Iron Man like Magneto's Hyper Grav, I can get a full combo that will build well over one meter. Using it as a reversal would have been invaluable, but it's not possible.

I'm running Wolverine/Zero/Sent these days. I haven't played Sent all that seriously since the nerf, but I'm realizing how abusable drones can be when both of my other guys can teleport behind you. Zero's on Shippuga assist to combo off Wolverine's air throw -> slide, and Wolverine's on Tornado Claw so Zero can extend combos with OTG dive kick.
works good man
works good man
Self-comboing off of Repulsar Blast? That shit is hard and unpredictable unless you mean as an assist. Best thing about Repulsar Blast is that if you catch someone in a combo with it, it basically allows you to fish for a reset because even you won't know which side they will end up at so how can they?God's Beard said:

I'm looking to pick up Thor. I think he's very underrated.
Thor/Dormammu/Doom.
I just need to get the 3D0C off every time with Dormammu.

This actually sounds pretty cool. I can always spare the few minutes it takes to put matches in as well.Tobe1 said:

Hsien-ko just gets a mix-up as a result, and you have to be in her gold armor. It's highly situational. Shuma-Gorath requires very strict timing. Zero just has to do what he always does, but have Sougenmu active at the time.
Zero TACing into Sentinel, his natural partner, builds 5 bars of meter in one combo.
Also, I just fell in love with Hidden Missiles all over again!

Love that last match background...
Oldschoolgamer
The physical form of blasphemy
So he burns one bar and makes it right back off of a TAC?
lmfao.
That with the lightning loop = free meter for days.

I just fought three matches in a row where my opponents ran away for the last 20 seconds of the match while I played as Hsien-Ko. It is so fucking infuriating that it nearly gives me a headache on the spot.
Oh, and I can't fucking wait for Capcom to smack Magneto's smug face with the righteous nerf hammer. L electromagnetic disruptor is broken and nigh unbeatable thanks to his far superior ground hyper(like Shadow servant, but good) and Sent drones. I can't transform and even if I could I can't beat disruptor with a DHC because I'll get knocked out of the sky without inflicting a single point of damage. Shadow servant would do the trick but it is usually far too short to hit him.
old piece of shit

Magneto and Sent just got fucking terryfying. I definitely see people abusing the shit out of this once word spreads. SWAGGITY SQUEEZE ALL DAY ER DAY!Oldschoolgamer said:
