Once I get my PS3 hooked back up, I think I'm gonna try a Joe/Deadpool/Nova team. Or some team that contains Joe and Nova, I guess. I really like the dude.

I still want to see the MvC4 wishlist!
Also I hope they can balance karas good this time, in CGH he was godlike and in UAS he was ass.Getting a bit tired of Marvel,
Give me a TvC2 with Mahvel 3 mechanics, and Spencer with Dante (preferably DMC 2 costume and demeanor)
anybody else is just cherry on my cake.

Great breakdown by Ultradavid of the Yipes vs ChrisG set at Summer Jam.
The smart stuff, the adaptations, the mind games, the movement, the defense, the quick thinking, the mix ups... this is Marvel to me.
LOOK AT THOSE GOD DAMN BACK WAVE DASHES!!!!
Vergil with Iron Fist is actually pretty sweet. That rising dragon assist can be worked into combos pretty easily to setup spiral swords stuff and Vergil assists can control enough of the screen to start pressure with Iron Fist. Plus general rising dragon assist screen control with a guy like Vergil is just BS to deal with anyways.
Clockwork vs. Neo FT15 was my first time ever seeing high level MvC2 play. My jaw dropped at the superjumps they were doing pre-matches. I tried for a month to do them that fast and couldn't, hahaha.http://www.twitch.tv/ultrachentv/b/330214515

I think before Yipes and Chris G's set (I think?) there was no video but there was audio of the button check, and basically they kept wavedashing at eachother until one person fucked up.Man even the pre-match wave dashes were hype. I remember RayRay and Fanatiq doing similar exercises before their matches and I got hyped. I also think they do it to psyche the opponent out.

This is how you psyche an opponent out IMO
So good he doesn't even button check during button check

xbox or ps3 version?I'm pretty sure I'm going to pick this up today.

Does anyone have a strong opinion for the best doom assist to support dante? I normally run doom first, backed up by weasel shot and vajra, but when I have dante in the first slot for match-up reasons etc., I'm at a bit of a loss.
I've always run plasma beam, but now I'm kind of questioning that. It scales the hell out of combos if you confirm off of it- so maybe rocks would work better for teleport mix-ups and lock down? It is nice to have the crazy durability of the beam to help win zoning wars, and it can occasionally combo break you out of getting killed because he appears behind your point character. Hmm...

Can't Phoenix just block the spiral swords after transformation?
Learned. Feels good to have 3 of the best anti-Phoenix characters in the game on one team.
Yes
Which means she gets to sit there and block Vergil for the next 30 marvel seconds, which is the entire point. I just showed those as examples of what to do if the Phoenix player attempts to press buttons after transforming.
There's also the fact that most Phoenix players save X-Factor for Dark Phoenix and can easily X-Factor cancel through any of Vergil's attacks and just kill him. I'm not saying it's not useful. It's a really cool tactic, but it looks pretty situational. It's not a guareented kill.
Actually...But she can't guard cancel her way out of swords without using meter, which she has none of after going dark.
You're right in that point blank does take away some of the swords. However, I've actually had the swords 'disappear' during a teleport until Vergil reappears on the other side, causing a crossup, and this was from full screen. I've only had it happen when playing as Vergil twice, and had it happen against me once, but it's like half-way through the super. I've never really been able to replicate it in training mode, so it's probably some random 1 frame chance thing.When other characters are at point blank upon activation I know multiple swords make contact at once, I would believe its 3 at a time. I would imagine that stinger pushes Vergil close enough that this would happen. It probably wouldn't be a very useful self 50/50 even if it's possible, because getting pushblocked at all would probably make it not work.
I have noticed that the swords rotate in the same orientation regardless of what side or whatever action Vergil does. I've noticed before after teleporting behind them at point blank with swords active that one sword will connect and suddenly the gap created from the initial set of swords that made contact made it's way to the other side of Vergil, which makes them have to switch their block (not that it's hard to do that or anything).
I still kind of doubt that anyone other than Vergil players themselves will be able to know when to guard cancel it for a while though.
Goodness gracious. It never ends.
LOL I don't know what I'm doing.
Do missions! And pick Wesker just to practice like I said earlier.
Promote good content shamelessly. Pro players still don't snapback on reaction to guard cancels though, so I doubt we'll see this happen any time soon.
