Well, apparently the UMvC3 patch is live and I hear they nerfed a character. That’s good, I can think of a couple characters that need nerfs like Wesker, Doom, Zero, Spencer.

…wait, they WHAT?!

2884

I think wesker and Spencer are the only characters that should receive nerfs really. Zero and doom are not relatively easy to use. zero dies hella quick and Doom just has that foot dive bullshit that the scrubs keep eating cuz they luv pressing buttons.

2885

I’m sorry Muji. It just wasn’t the Wright thing for Capcom to nerf. But hey, everyone universally agrees that his assist wasn’t broken since it takes a year and your first born to set up.

2886

What did they nerf? The turnabout assists? They take away all of the invincibility? Or some? If its some invincibility, I agree,. If its all, then that’s stupid

2887

Well i think zero should be nerfed zero hitboxes are really stupid plus he gets TOD combos from almost any hit. Plus unless you have an invincible super or gimlet he’s really safe. i don’t think how hard a character is to play should have to do anything to do with whether the character gets nerfed or not.

2888

Okay, so viper, dorm, Modok ect… Are hard characters to use and their output damage is amazing and they have ToD combos too. Maybe we should nerf them by your logic?

2889

I was watching SCR yesterday, I feel like he is the most unimpressive “top” player. I can’t believe he wins most times. When he was playing Clockwork I was like WTF how is he winning.

He’s like Tebow looks horrible but wins. don’t know

2890

My two beefs with Zero are the Buster-cancel as part of his neutral game, and his OP-as-fuck hitboxes. ToD is an inevitability in Marvel, anyway, so unless Capcom starts comprehensively patching out ToD combos, there’s not much of a point in getting salty about it.

Spoiler

As an aside, ideally ToD would only be possible given specific assists/DHCs…but that would require so much playtesting and patching that it’s not feasible in the slightest

If he was dropping combos everywhere until the last 20 seconds of the match, maybe. I think he’s more analogous to Tim Duncan - boring as fuck to watch, but just plays really solid and basic. Everybody else is known for something (ChrisG has weird teams and is godlike on throws, Marlinpie has crazy fingers and blocks with his face, Justin Wong makes other people choke, etc.), but Noel just plays a team of characters with the lowest effort-to-results ratios in a non-complicated style.

Then again, Tim Duncan is a class act, so maybe that comparison isn’t really serviceable, either.

2891

Notsoy, true. That’s what I mean but unimpressive though. It just has that same end to as Tebow, it feels like people should beat him, just like it’s feel like other teams should have won against Tebow but some how they both win.

2892

Hey guys, just here to post about what an awesome time I had at HAz’s this saturday. Shout outs to not looking at the clock and choking against Haz in Marvel.

Also, I’d like to know if anyone is willing to help practice with me or tell me where/who to go to get better in marvel for when the real ranbats start, as I’d like to place highly next time, but for that I’d need good sparring partners.

Anyways, thanks again guys for the great tournament this saturday, had plenty of fun.

2893

Depends on where you live. Armando (aka Angelic) hosts weekly gatherings at his place in Tempe on Wednesdays. We’ve got some guys up at ASU, and a few others over in Mesa who might be looking for training partners.

As for me, I live in Mesa and could also really use a training partner. I haven’t played for a while, probably because I find it hard to stay motivated when I keep playing so poorly (probably because I’m mostly a training mode monster/theoryfighter with a terrible neutral game).

2894

I’d love to give you some help, but I’m in north phoenix around the paradise valley area, so it’d be pretty difficult to go all the way to Mesa just for sparring matches. Anyone else closer to my area though who would be willing to let me in some sparring sessions/would like to spar some time?

2895

Yazawa, you need to get with danimitsu. He rarely posts here. But if you send him a pm, he’ll get it. He lives on 7th st and greenway.

As for nerfs. Zero Spencer and wesker don’t need nerfs. They are just solid all around characters. Wesker was better on point in vanilla imo. He still has matchup issues as well as everyone else

2896

Sent him a profile post(no idea how to PM on SRK), anyways if we’re talking about who needs nerfs, I strongly agree with Spencer getting some kind of nerf, I swear a lot of spencers do the same shenanigans and get away with it because of how safe spencer can be. Espcially since he can end any block string with a zipline, he can just keep pressuring you or runs away to safety, so damn annoying. As for Zero, once you get used to learning where to block with his teleport shenanigans, he’s not so bad, but I agree his normals are too good and that one touch can lead to death/near death. As for wesker, I haven’t had as much trouble, unless he’s in level 3 X-Factor, that’s when you really need to stay on your toes, but aside from that he’s too basic to really get anything going.

2897

Spiteful you need to contact daddy soon so we can play more often like we discussed! 623 628 1801

Also fuck Jimsauce you Fucking scrubby as ignorant “I collected a check from the World cocksucking games” quoting this motherfucker!

You dumb fucking truck!

2898

Just zone out Spencer if you got a team or character that can do so. He just got nerfed now too since they fixed the throw tech glitch. He had to be really careful on how he uses the grapple to get inside

2899

I got Frank/Vergil/Strange, Frank can somewhat zone with zombies, but not fast enough to keep spencer out, and strange is too slow with everything and can get bionic armed pretty easily. I’m not saying spencer is the best, but he does seem to have too many get out of jail free cards to use.

2900

Yazawa, I’m by 51 and Cactus, don’t really play Marvel since I don’t have it, but will play/learn some, down for some AE or KOF13 as well.

2901

Just got AE myself, and I’m very much interested with KOFXIII, however unless you have PS3, I can’t really play either of those since my stick is having issues right now and I can only play it on PS3 consoles. Anyways, if you teach me some AE/XIII, I’ll teach you some marvel stuff. Send me a pm of when you’re able to spar and a phone number if you can.

2902

I really didn’t intend to start a conversation about who needs nerfs or anything, I just wanted to illustrate the absurdity of leaving strong characters intact while nerfing the absolute worst character in the game’s best tool. I would be on board with nerfs to my actual characters like Zero and Doom, but Wright? Give me a fucking break. There’s a difference between wanting it nerfed because it’s imbalanced and wanting it nerfed because it gives you trouble, too. If you let me get away with gathering 3 pieces of evidence and tossing away all bad evidence, a raw tag, a TAC, and/or a shitty combo into Objection off of a punish, you deserve to have to deal with a (Semi) invincible assist. People act like Tron was unbeatable in Vanilla when you could bait her and attack while the assist was on cooldown. Same was true for Wright, and this is assuming you even let him get to that point to begin with.
