Making sure. There is no way to combo off of Dark Phoenix's burst outside of XFC right?
Reorganized and edited OP again to make the most useful information most esaily accessible. Added Karst's Google Docs spreadsheet, among other tiny things here and there.
Man, at the time the big glowing X-Factor thing was such a big deal and complaint so I went all out trying to make those banners as obnoxious as possible. But they take up so much space goddamn. :lol

So I had a dream that I was in Miami and I beat Yipes in a FT5 money match alternating teams every time I lost, one of which was Magneto/Superman/Thanos/Green Arrow/Phoenix. In the middle of the match, he gets up to go watch the God of War movie in 3D, so I go to the airport to pick up my package which is a computer, and it starts raining indoors. For some reason I kept claiming that I had never played Marvel before, and no matter which team I had I could yell out Log Trap in real life and it would just show up in game and hit every time, pissing off Yipes. And my Magneto was the Marvel 2 sprite and I would go for resets like every hit, and would just change into different characters without tagging like SF2 rainbow edition.
oh god zak bennett ran a train on the FGTV house. he even perfected fchamp. go to like 17:30 here for when he startys: http://www.twitch.tv/fgtvlive/b/322979331

Geeze. They weren't prepared at all. At least Fanatiq recognizes the importance of taking ammy out.

So I'm messing about with UMvC3 training mode in "Lowest" damage setting. Man does it scale back the damage of long combos!
I wonder if people would consider testing out that mode to see how it stacks vs the current TOD meta.

Damn you karst! Zak Bennet Chaotic Flamed a blocked EMD

The current TOD meta keeps a lot of characters viable. Imagine a meta where Zero still TODs most of the viable top cast as they are already low health yet someone like Storm has to hit him 2 to 3 times to finish him off. Or imagine if someone like Nemesis couldn't TOD but someone like Spencer still could. Right now the meta makes it so that a lot of mid tier characters are viable because they are within the TOD range, the top tiers are just overkill in terms of damage meaning if you scale back the damage the mid tiers will be hurt more and it will be business as usual.
With lowered damage it would put the emphasis back on characters who consistently get hits and have better mix ups. It greatly nullifies the threat of characters who don't get many hits in but when they do you most likely die (like let's say Tron on Abegen's team).

Killer Instinct had the C-c-combo BREAKER though! I always did short 3-hit combos in that game just for that reason.
I agree on all accounts, but it doesn't help if they disappear if he gets hit.
Then extend it a little less - Trish would be your point character anyway.
So good. You should take the time to play more folks here.
Will watch if true.
Tron can loop supers until death, but I'm talking more about a character's ability to open people up. If you can't do that, nothing else matters.
I'm not saying that other characters need Hidden Missiles, and I think we both know he has great normals (just bad mobility). But ask yourself: if every other character had an assist on par with Hidden Missiles, what would it look like? Tracking Purification wouldn't even be as good as Hidden Missiles.
And way, way easier. I ran Spiral sometimes, and I churned people down basically just by mashing buttons with occasional hcb motions.
Looks more like a classic Beholder to me.So Capcom must have finally traded someone for Shuma.
The female faces scare me.
Thanks!
So sad I missed this. Watching now.

Pick three characters you like and play with them until you're comfortable using them IMO. Then come back here for team advice.
From what I see, they aren't worth the trouble at all.
Some can be easily countered.
Not enough time to incorporate it into your game for EVO. People want to stick to their BnBs. Infinites will only really become a problem after EVO.
LMAO @ that CJ vs Zak Bennet set. There are no words......
Why would they? It's pre-EVO, there isn't enough time to invest in something this whose risk:reward hasn't even been completely thought out for most player's styles and teams.
Edit: Timestamp for the CJ vs. Zak, Dah?
17th hour is when he starts playing, it goes Neo then CJ set against Zak. Also the Chaos Tide troll is at around 19:58.
During the entire time Fanatiq is glued to the TV and analyzing every movement, tech and mix up of Zak. Anytime Firebrand does the instant overhead he just shakes his head, he knows that shit is scary!

Bennet tried to do even the very first part of Dormammu's a few times and couldn't pull it off (it's the same movement as his Firebrand setup off of a side TAC in corners). It's just really hard for some characters.
Firebrand should be able to combo off of his instant overhead solo like Wolverine can!

Man I've always tried to do volcano -> j.S but that shit is so inconsistent for me.
BTW, you play on PSN or Xbox?
Wolverine can't solo combo off of his instant overhead without an assist, X factor or Berserker Charge upgrade. Also once Wolverine does his instant overhead and you guess right, you basically avoided his mix up. Against Firebrand pinned under Cold Star.... you are getting opened the fuck up.Firebrand should be able to combo off of his instant overhead solo like Wolverine can!
I won't lie, it's hard for me as well, although I can at least see the timing now. Only problem is making it safe/turning it into a reset if the j.S whiffs. I need to learn how to Bold Move mid match after a whiffed j.S.
Xbox here, but no live.
You and me both, man.
Dante can Bold Move a whiffed j.S? That's news to me. I guess I've never really tried since I never use j.S without canceling into Hammer/Airplay or outside of combos. I'm still not positive that would make it safe given the inherent no command period after a Bold Move.
Yeah, you can bold move the j.S on first contact with the ground on hit, block, or whiff. You can also Dash Cancel which leads to stuff like this.
Well I could just play my best team all day! Btw, did you think the Chris team was solid?
I honestly think of Tron as the same archetype as Haggar though she has much more mobility. Haggar theoretically has a hard time opening people up, but watching Bum's stream aka House of Crack, you see people get bopped AT LEAST once, that's the way it is with Tron. It's hard to do it but once you do, they have a dead character, alot of characters are like this. Tron is definitely best played on point now that her assist isn't god tier.
Tracking Purification wouldn't be as good no, but it's a start to making it alot better right? It also has a faster start up than Missiles. It's attributes are also a little bit different since it sends youre opponent flying. I think the best nerf people would agree with missiles is that it should disappear when he's hit. I would think that's the best OR nerf the hitstun.
That's not right since it went Neo > Fapnatiq
It's character/spacing dependent but yes he can...
Thanks for the link. Vid's blocked at work, but I'll check it out once I get home. I actually do recall playing around with bold canceling Helm Breaker waaay back. It was so long ago that I forgot about it. It seemed like a spotty whiff confirm and I recognized at that point to never do naked j.S's, so I never really explored it. I didn't know about the dash canceling, though.
Nah he can do it against most characters in the corner. Mid screen not so much but, you play Wolverine more than I do so =p.

Was practicing Magneto's fierce fly loop bnb earlier. I was getting really frustrated because it's hard for me to do the adf H consistently. I'm trying to get down as many reps as I can but can only get like 3, and then my mind like automatically tells me to press S. Any tips for practicing the reps?
Again I know that but that still falls under situational category. I would rather attempt the instant overhead with an assist because it works in any situation rather than be worrying about spacing or character sizes. I really only attempt a naked instant overhead if I want to go for the kill with XF (and that's usually like hail mary because if I miss it I wasted X factor) or if it's against Sentinel.
Also Berserker Slash.
Just keep doing it. It's really not bad once you get it in your muscle memory. If it's hard to do so, just make your fourth button a L + M macro and slide your hand over to do the reps.
If the other character is dropping, you just add an L to the rep (i.e. H, H, L, H, H). From there you can transition into hypergrav loop.

Will try this out, thank you =)
I think this is my biggest problem currently with where I am in learning Magnus. I don't even do it consciously, but after like two reps, an S comes out and I just rage at myself for it. If it's not that, then it's getting a straight forward or upward/downward air dash when I'm trying to do the df/up fierce loop midscreen. Funnily enough, the loop where you throw Mag Blasts for the juggle, dash under S and continue is easier (in the sense that I go "oh OK I get it") for me.
Sorry I wasn't clear on one of my points.
"If the other character is dropping, you just add an L to the rep (i.e. H, H, L, H, H). From there you can transition into hypergrav loop."
These are two separate points. You add the L to the rep to pop the opponent back up. Then you can finish your fly loop. Once you finish your fly loop, THEN you can transition into hypergrav loop. I taught myself how to do fly loop into hypergrav loop so I don't think it's the best way, but it's the easiest that I found-
Ground magic series, launch, H, adf, L, H, fly, H, H, (for however many reps), at the very end, if the other character is slightly under magneto, L, H, unfly, falling H, st. H, L hypergrav. This isn't the optimized way and you can only get like 2-3 reps of hypergrav loop after a full fly combo, but I think it's pretty easy doing it that way.

Ryu: Challange Me!
I am jumping on PSN NOW! Just message me.
Just randomly participated in a local 32 man tourney last night and got second place. Feels good man. People who don't play against a compentent Wright have no idea what to do because they have zero experience against him. I was really shocked I made it that far considering the competition. I lost to a guy who played an amazing Morrigan, Dorm and X-23. More people should anchor X-23. In X-Factor almost every move she has is safe coupled with an easy unblockable lvl3 makes her one devastating opponent.
Karst this guy was doing this crazy Dorm combo. I can't remember it exactly but it was something like...
Hit confirm to B&B and end with a dark hole > OTG assist with X23 during dark hole hit stun > purification > one of the spike liberation moves > Bomb Hyper > Teleport above as Bomb Hyper ends > Air S > Purification > Chaotic Flame
I know thats not 100% correct but that was the general flow of the combo. It did like 85% damage to Hulk only using two meters. Shit was crazy.
