B*tches Gather 'Round: The MvC3 Iron Man Team Thread

Joe/Iron Man/Ammy is the optimal configuration for this team. Cold star allows Iron Man to get in and can be used for guard break setups. It has no real utility for extending combos though but Joe’s bomb assist should let Iron Man loop a Repulsor or two in the corner for more damage.

Sentinel is a better anchor than Iron Man. People actually have to respect Sent unless they want to get j.m into death, spit into rocket punch, command grab or the unblockable armour cr.m, whereas IM has absolutely nothing for people to be scare of.

Not like Wesker have to care about anything IM does.

Agreed.

Can you explain / give an example on how to OS his air normals? I’m getting back into marvel and trying to learn the necessary foundation to play the game. I get tagged by air throws constantly.

Also, why don’t we have to worry about dying to Wesker jumping and doing Samurai Edge? Is this in reference to using repulsors on teleport / jump ins? Thanks FuLLBLeeD!

Hold forward when you do a jumping air normal so if they try and throw you you’ll tech it.

I’m actually in need of help looking for an Anchor. I’m planning to go Wolverine (barrage)/ IM (Unibeam) but am having trouble figuring out who would be last.
I just recently started playing marvel and I’m not very good with my execution yet.

Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated. Just from my ability as a player I’m leaning towards taskmaster but not sure what assist.

The rule of thumb in this game with any jumping H normal is to always hold forward when you do a normal. For example, for Haggar’s air pipe, you would hit down forward H. The reason for this is to OS for air throws, because the air throw system is this game in stupid and with Iron Man you either want to hit them with an air normal and hit confirm into your air to air combo, throw them (Iron Man can ADDF L Smart Bomb confirm off any height air throw) or tech their air throw attempt.

Hey guys quick question. I just started running pool/im/skrull but should I maybe change the order to im on point? It is such a pain trying to get in on characters with deadpool without a beam assist, but I build more meter with im than I do with pool so idk which route to go. Oh, and with this team I’m thinking tenderizer for a lockdown off an otg from either im or pool, but if im is point should I switch to stone smite for a wall bounce?

Iron man should be last if you really wanna run that team imo

This team came to mind once I thought of how significant IM’s TAC infinite can be.

Firebrand/IM (Repulsors)/Sent

This team isn’t new at all. Many Firebrand players already know that IM can use Repulsor assist for an unblockable set-up vs. incoming characters. But, thanks to IM’s TAC infinite, Firebrand can get a dead character AND all the meter he can ever need for unblockable>snap loops in one package.

Blackstarr runs this team, its kinda broken

Lol I figured as much.

What do you all think of Firebrand (Demon Missile)/Iron Man (Repulsor Blast)/ Frank West (Shopping Cart)? Good tricks from hard tags from Firebrand into Frank plus the luminous body swap outs and Iron Man has the level 3, THCs, and some abusive stuff from TACs. He also has the lock down assist to set up unblockables with Firebrand anywhere on the map. I have currently been running the same team but with Skrull and his tenderizer assist in the second slot but I am finding myself just not liking Skrull. He is dull and not really hype enough. Would this be a good team swap?

You can also level3 with Ironman, swap for franck waste take picture for easy lvl5.

Trying to put together another alt team that is more… “cheap” for lack of a better word. My main team is Cap (Charging Star) /IM (Unibeam) /Doom (Hidden Missiles). All 3 mesh well enough, but if Cap gets blown up, Iron Man is pretty much on his own since I have Hidden Missiles for Cap’s combo extension and Charging Star to support Tony if need be, outside of a combo. I can run the zoning game pretty well with IM/Doom, but if I need to get in it’s pretty much a crapshoot.

Wanted to back up Iron Man with Plasma Beam, but I’m not sure who can fit in the 3rd spot to compliment them both. The order is completely iffy right now, but all I know is that Tony is not touching anchor. Tony is already a guilty pleasure that burns a hole in the team and I have this “thing” about not copying other teams. I just like to find my own tech.

Any ideas on who would have some synergy? Viper? Nova? Deadpool? Haggar? Akuma? Ryu?

I’ve touched into Nova/IM before, with Repulsor extending Nova’s combos, letting him do L Centurion followed by the M variant. Even managed to get the H Centurion after but I’m not sure how I set it up.

TL;DR - Who can be scheduled in for the playdate with Iron Man and Doom (Plasma Beam)?

Very good technique and good video.

playing Magneto(a)/Ironman(b)/Doom(b)…
and LOVING it.

having missiles falling, while ironman is doing an addf just behind them… beautiful.

hardest thing about this… is how the hell does Ironman confirm off of Disruptor???
Doom gets it easy.

I use Mor/IM/strider [y][a][y]
yea…i know it’s not gonna be winning any trophies. whatev

anyway, for Mor, i like the assists…i use IM’s beam for neutral and vaj to close off the air
for IM/strider tho, i can’t really think of way of applying the strider assist except to just annoy my opp, which kinda works
I wish i could incorporate a combo with it at least. Tho, i use either of them more to complement mor, w/o missles
then i have lv3 strid if all else fails

i switch Mor with chris too if i feel like it

every team with IM sux anyway so…

Yay!!!
