Just curious, any other Chris players around? Would love to see how others have teams set up using him. If any on here exist that is.
I main Chris. I usually have him on point either as Chris/Zero/Dante or Chris/Zero/Hulk when I'm not feeling Dante. Sometimes I have him second for DHC glitch after Dante.
 
I'm trying to level up my Ammy a little before going again to the weekly tournament this weekend. I've already started to use the airdash->4jC option select to get in, but when I get a throw I don't know what I should do. Can I combo into something other than Okami Shuffle? I tried using the slow super, but they fall before I do anyways =/

Speaking of slow combos, I really don't know any besides j.C(charged)x4 into whatever, and (glaive)236A(charged)x4 into whatever...

If you're willing to use two bars, you can use a throw as an DHC glitch using the slow/shuffle hyper. I do it with King Servbot with Tron, but it should work with Wolverine/Wesker/Taskmaster too. I don't remember if throws in the air lead to combos, in corners it does, and ground forward throws do, I'll test it later.

I usually use Tron as my slow combo starter, but with Ammy you could do.

S - > j.C(charged) -> j.C(charged) -> fully charged qcf + m -> S -> j.C(charged) -> j.C(charged) -> fully charged qcf + l -> optional okami shuffle

that's what marlinpie does I think.

You can get about 5 reps in anywhere on screen, and if that isn't enough to kill, a simple launch into air series + Shadow Blade will.

I use Chris on my fun team. Chris/Iron Man/Sentinel.

Best Chris team I have seen is Chris/Zero/Dante. It's a legitimately high tier team.

Also SolarPowered don't worry... I haven't bought a single DLC this generation. The best DLC this generation (and one I got) was easily Burnout Paradise which was a considerable expansion that was FREE. I respect that people would like to have DLC characters and there is demand for it, so I don't make a fuss about it and I only wrote down my problems with it because the topic was brought up. Otherwise I don't bring it up because it's pointless.

Captain America's Back Flip now has invulnerable frames. It is seen cleanly going through Firebrand's fireball. I can't believe people missed this.

That's day 1 Haggar. Look up the first WNF with MVC3... Floe used it with Sentinel after even Haggar combo to cross up/mix up opponents with it. It was hilarious. It's not invincible but it shrinks his hit box so much that it goes through a lot of shit.

Justin Wong is pretty godlike in pretty much everything except anything related to driving :)


Anyways. Does anybody know of a good tutorial on dante. Trying to learn bold canceling and its the hardest thing in the god damn game.

There are several ways to Bold Cancel. There's the plink method that I think is considered the most 'reliable' by most Dante users. Basically, you do the motion, then plink S and whatever button you want together. Let's say M for Stinger > Volcano. Since the M comes out second, it'll take priority and you'll do the Volcano. I guess the reverse could be done for teleports - down, down, L/M/H plinked with S.

I use Pad, and while the plink method does work, I use my thumb and thus I usually end up hitting the two buttons at the same time. The method I use and have an easier time doing is basically double tapping. I do the standard ground series, then Stinger into the DP motion while hitting the Bold Move. Then I just double tap the M, and it comes out. This is the method I've found to be most accurate for myself, but if done too slowly you won't get anything. I'd recommend testing out both methods and seeing what works best for you.

A video tutorial of the plinking method for reference.

I bet he'd be pretty beast at Smash 4 if he entered a tourney during the first week. Beyond that, it's if he really wants to get good or not. He won that MK9 national tourney during the first week, didn't he? The guy is a fucking genius.

I'd love to see the reactions from the folks that don't consider it a fighter if he actually got deep into the scene.

Niitsuma also mentions that there will be a new downloadable mode that changes the way you play the game, but that they wouldn't be talking about it at this time. He adds that there is still some undiscovered technology out there that players haven't discovered yet.

While I know this was just a joke, there really is no excuse for not being able to pick the same character more than once in local play now that six color palette swaps are going to be in the game.

The real worry is whether or not I will build a new team. THAT is what you should be worrying about.

I'll fight you, too, one of these days. Maybe we can have a Hsien-Ko battle.
Cute low tier > top tier.

@Smurf, It's Citanarf. I'll invite you to a game.

I just beat some guy who pre-emptively taunted during Trish's Round Harvest hyper. I lived by the magic pixel. I ended the fight with a taunt. Personal policy is to taunt the taunters. :p
 
IMO there is only one taunt good enough to finish a match with and that is the mightiest of all taunts. Thor's epic trashtalk. I did that to my little brother during the end of a friendly match, then to both my older brothers.

gg's frantic. that spencer was whooping my ass at the beginning. nice to see marvel gaf have some variation in characters. you can always practice against different characters. somebody sent me a game invite while i was playing with frantic. sorry that i didn't accept but i was playing against frantic and i was planning on leaving once the set was over. btw i hope it didn't seem rude leaving after i got the 10th win. first to 5 or 10 is what i usually play.

I started getting sloppy around the second half of the set. Kept running into Haggar, and not really planning my attacks all that well. I was also dropping so many combos. I really need to practice Bold Cancelling mid-match more. I usually go for easy undroppable combos with Dante. XD

Your keepaway game is amazing, though. I also learned that some things I didn't realize were punishable, are actually punishable. Always nice to know that sort of thing so I can stop doing it on reflex. XD Very good set, good games all around. That one match where it was my X-Factor-less Spencer vs your Zero and Haggar I did NOT think I was going to win that one. That was a very footsie heavy match. XD

smurfx said:

Nah, it's fine. First to tens is a nice amount for a set, I think.(Unless it's a 10-0 set, in which case it leaves the desire for a nice salty runback.)

Edit: Why does every Dante online seem to use the WORST possible combo for him? They don't seem to realize that doing Million Stabs in a combo reduces damage by about 125k. Sure, it gives them at least fifteen extra hits, but it drops his damage to some of the worst in the game. Whenever I encounter one of these 'Million Stab Dantes', I feel compelled to style on them with full, feature length Dante combos. My greatest victory is his standard intermediate combo into Million Dollars, DHCed into Bionic Lancer, link the Armor Piercer into a second Bionic Lancer, and DHC back into Million Dollars for the kill(it was on a full health Wesker, hence why they survived all that). Feels good, man.

I think I have a problem.

Dude Million Stab is STYLISH. It's Dante's BnB in pretty much all DMC games except DMC2.

You would be surprised as to how many people don't understand the concept of hit stun deterioration/damage scaling.

It's stylish, I'll admit, and I always used it in the DMC games... but it's really only good for stylish combo videos in MvC3.

Dahbomb said:

I understand that, but you'd think 4th-1st Lords would realize by now that it's not that good in combos. *shrug*

Fairly certain Million Stab is Forward + H (H H H)

Oh yeah, I think the other is Million Carats. I use Million Stab all the time as an opening move. The range on it catches people off guard half the time. Pretty much never use it in combos, though.

Ah, but I'm also calling an assist at the same time, usually Sentinel drones, and by the time Million Stabs has finished, the drones are hitting you, maintaining blockstun long enough for me to launch a mixup :)

It actually sucks when people don't block it sometimes because I'll have to go into an air combo, but I can't TAC while drones are out and if I Killer Bee them they run into the drones and the combo drops.
