In regards to Marduk, everyone is sleeping on him. I’ve been playing him since day 1 and the more I learn about him the more I realize that I know nothing. Still so much technology to be discovered.
With Gief, my Marduk has turned into a really scary vortex character. He has setups for almost every type of wakeup option save for some character specific obstacles like teleports. Still in the process of lab research to find an o/s for them possibly with st.HP or st.HK. Once v2013 hits, Marduk will be a beast.
I just picked up marduk. Used Hugo and zangief for bout 95% of my matches. With Hugo nerfs I’m gonna roll with marduk. If there’s any marduk players willing to teach me please send me a message on xbl. LordFlopyRoostr. I’m currently at 7400bp so I’m not a noob or anything.
O shit ark is proximity NYC? Damn i follow ur fights already. Followed them for zangief. My Hugo is a beast but will be brought down a lot with the update.
Holy bejeebus I didn’t realize it until nsreeder mentioned it lol. Two words: good, games. I recall you beating me pretty free in ranked quite a few times lol. I’m definitely going to have to pick your brain man.
Thanks! Thats means a lot. Try Marduk if you still want a grappler on your team. His learning curve is harsh but very rewarding once you get a good feel for him.
Hey Roknin ggs. I’m sure I got lucky a few times, anything can happen online. Oh yeah, pick away. Actually, I could use some fresh eyes for some setups i’m developing. Marduk crowd-sourcing if you will haha. Add me on XBL and we could online training room/endless lobby sometime.
I have a pocket Marduk. But tbh I don’t use him much anymore now that I’ve found Christie. But I might pick him up again once 2013 drops. I know he’ll be better overall and have new combo potential so we’ll see.
Well, I know I slept on him in a personal sense, in that I just kinda ignored him for the longest time. ^_^’ And even with his toolset as a grappler, I’ve run into few good, dedicated Marduk players… aaaand I think you’re all in this thread lol.
I wouldn’t say top in this version, but in v2013… Iono’, things are looking good.
Hell even now, having the fastest command grabs of the grapplers in the game is a very appealing advantage.
Hey guys, I have a match from earlier tonight that I recorded with the intention of putting it on the Alisa forums, but since you guys are so active lately…
Sim/Marduk have been my main team for a while and really started to love Duk. So far liking the changes in v.2013. Even more fun to play now with all this new arsenal we got.
I am playing on xbox- live EU, with the tag Macraiveli
Well I am currently playing Bob/Marduk and that team if anything has crazy damage. Its nice because with Bob in back Marduk doesn’t have to rely on doing EX combos or even combos into anything except launcher because Bob adds so much damage. Bob basically just builds meter for tag into Marduk and then Marduk builds meter to go back. If you have 2 meters you can get as much as 600.
I think Marduk’s new tools are very nice, being able to juggle super is a huge boon, st.mp links are nice adn I think it makes cr.lk st.mp a better tag starter. St.mp,st.mp,cr.mp xx gator slam isn’t to bad if you learn how to plink it and his new combos of cr.hp are godlike.
I wish bob marduk could do the cr.hp, cadc, st.mp ~ cr.hp xx gator slam but you can’t. Instead you have to do cr.hp cadc st.mp, cr.mp for slightly less damage : / oh well
Forgot to say that Spiral Rock (dp+k,MP with bob) tag cancels are hella good for setting shit up. I love it when I know people will mash and I back+mp through it lols
