I'm not talking about during combos sir!
Jump back and flip a coin between qcf.L and qcf.M! Now and then throw in a grounded qcf.H because hey, why not?
Hold that shit.
It's basically whether you want Magneto backed by Sentinel Force or Sentinel backed by EMD, and whether you are more comfortable using XF3 Magneto or XF3 Sentinel for comebacks.
We are THE BEST.
W...why would you suggest this?
That's actually an amazing counter pick team for both Morrigan and Phoenix too bad he is garbage with all the characters.
Hawkeye is okay with fighting from fullscreen without meter most of the time, especially if he's not up against teleporters. He really has to pick his shots carefully if he doesn't have another projectile assist to fill in his gaps though.
Bon Voyage -> raw tag Doom. I don't do it often, though.
I thought you might just not understand the game well when you suggested that he should use Hypergrav over EMD, but now I'm thinking you might be trolling.
... Nobody thinks hypergrav is good until they play against my Captain America team and can't block the incoming mixup because the timing to block the crossup is nowhere near what it looks like. Then they lose a character because Captain herp-derps with insane damage.
Anything hypergrav can do for mix-up setups, another assist could be doing better. I'm sure your setup is really hard to block, but it'd be just as hard to block if you used a good assist for the setup, too.
It's pretty much good for everyone.
You should watch some videos of FChamp using Magneto/Sentinel/Dormammu and find out.
Sentinel doesn't need combo extensions. He hits over 800K with 1 bar alone. He needs independent pressure.
You make it sound like there's no benefit to having multiple horizontal assists, or like poorly balanced teams never have to deal with snapbacks.
It doesn't work with EMD and my team is Captain America/Sentinel/Magneto so saying another assist could be doing better is irrelevant because those characters aren't on my team. I have a version with Sentinel assist but it's just not very effective since drones are slow and Captain America can't maximize damage off every stray hit since drones hit weird.
Yeah but Hypergrav is better for certain characters.
And early on in Marvel there was a top player in California that still used Sentinel rocket punch assist. You can justify anything. That doesn't mean you can't use another assist.
Well first off, you picked off one of my many examples and didn't really answer the other ones. But, EMD doesn't really help with pressure. Sentinel needs help with mixups. Hypergrav helps with this.
There isn't really a benefit to having multiple horizontal assists if one of your horizontal assists overshadows another essentially making it useless. If you run a teleporting character, why would you use slower arrows when you can use near-instant EMD? If you are using a zoning character, why would you use EMD when you get task arrows that cut through nearly every projectile in the game? Hypergrav provides something to the team that EMD doesn't.
This really makes my head almost explode.
You can do whatever the hell you want.
EMD helps a lot more with pressure than hypergrav.
Assist recovery time and dead characters.
K.
I never said "Sentinel is a good anchor". I suggested that Taskmaster is the worst of the three characters to have as an anchor. Sentinel is definitely not a "terrible" anchor though. Terrible anchors are characters like Haggar, Tron, and Hsien-ko, characters that have almost no hope of making a comeback. Sentinel is very, very capable of making comebacks, and he gets a free out of incoming mix-ups.
When you're on the receiving end, it's goddamn embarrassing.
Someone said...somewhere, that it bounces based on whether you used LM, LH, or MH for the input.
That probably contributes to the "best feeling in the world." I hate it too, though. :|
That did the trick! Thanks!
You said another assist could do the job better. What other assist is there that's on my team that can do the job that I need better? I'll give you a clue- there isn't one. Your quote was directly about MY mixup and my mixup relies on my team.
Exactly. And hypergrav is a viable assist. If you can't think outside of the box, that's your own problem. EMD is an amazing assist, but not for every character in the game.
Do you even read the things that you quote? I didn't say anything about hypergrav being good for pressure. Hypergrav is much better for mixups. If you do fly, call hypergrav right before you cross up, and then fly to the other side of them, they probably won't hit your assist and they'll get pulled in so you get to start your combo with a juicy j.s. Hell, if they get scared of that, they'll block and you get stomp, unfly, command grab shenanigans.
Sorry I'd rather have my assists add something to my team than being primarily useful when my other assist dies. And unless you're running a dedicated zoning team, you probably don't have a need to spam assists as soon as they recover unless you want to get your assists blown up.
Sentinel IS a terrible anchor. He's an absolutely horrible anchor. Sentinel has maybe slightly more hope of making a comeback than Haggar (although when you play Jan's Haggar often, you beg to differ). Taskmaster is a far better anchor than Sentinel and that's undeniable. Yeah Sentinel sorta gets out of incoming mixups, but he has to burn x factor to make it safe so it's not exactly free. That same x factor can have Taskmaster chipping you to death with arrows.
I should have left this at my initial judgment of you. I will now.
Maybe he is going as a fan? I remember him saying he enjoyed his time there last year.
didn't he lose the match though?
