"Beg For Your Life You Inferior Race" Super Skrull thread 2.0

Don’t think there’s a combo thread, but the first post and the wiki has some basic combos.

The level 3 lands depending on what two buttons you press.
L+M = left side
M+H = right side
L+H = middle

idk if this is known or not but today I was messing around with Skrull against sent and I found that in the corner after a naked meteor smash I could connect crouching(or standing) light, medium into launch. I didn’t mess around with it too much but all I could get was meteor smash, L, M, S, d.H, S, H. It might be possible to connect an inferno at the end but I didn’t try. I tried connect L after meteor smash against taskmaster and I couldn’t get it to work, so it might only work against large characters, or maybe even just sent but hopefully someone can figure more stuff out with this. Again, sorry if you guys already knew about this.

This , why is there no combo thread yet?

Yup. You can actually get in a H after the initial L, M. It’s situational though, considering Sentinel has to be against the corner.

Also, I found a 100% combo against Sent using Skrull’s Level 3 (no assist or X-Factor). It’s off the instant overhead, and can be done either in the corner or midscreen. :slight_smile:

I’ll record it when I get down to recording all the other stuff I’ve been meaning to…well…record.

EDIT: Well, I edited the annotations on my first two videos… Notation on the important stuff has been added.

We need a combo thread, some should do it, with the nice smiles and all, and video of said combo if available, as well as damage output, if x-factor is necessary and if assists are.

I’m at work right now but now that I’ve settled on Skrull on my team I’d be happy to do the combo thread. It will keep me from trying to change characters again. If nobody else makes one by the time I get home in an hour I’ll make it.

I wouldn´t recommend using the command grab that much since it has tons of recovery unlike She hulk´s. When people start jumping forward on Skrull that is when the problem starts. He already has good damage so don´t risk too much with him. What i recommend is trying to bait their jumps and go for the air throw.Yo JamalisVenom fix the Rolling Hook Command. Its 3 times forward H. And please Ender make the thread. I think Skrull is the only one that doesn´t have a combo thread yet O_o.

Just heard combofiend might be running skrull on the stream tonight, not sure if this is true but if you’ve got time this evening(or tomorrow morning for all us east coasters) y’all should check it out.

Somebody said that he´ll use Skrull, Capt. America and Deadpool. We´ll just have to wait.

In my opinion, Skrull’s strength lies in his Elastic Slam game. It really is a 50/50, but with an assist covering you (such as Ammy’s Cold star, or Tron’s Gustaf Fire), you can afford to throw them out more sparingly.

If the opponent begins to jump forward on you, start throwing out df.H’s… It has worked pretty good for me, in terms of keeping the opponent at bay.

This.

Tron Fire makes almost everything Skrull does dangerously safe and if the fire hits, he can command grab. It’s crazy.

Sorry sorry been away for a while but I have returned once more and I’ll get the updating.

You´re very right man. Tron is perfect for any character that can set grab situations. Has anyone tried Skrull on anchor position? The dude is insane on level 3, does ton of chip damage with his supers and has good comeback potential. I personally use him on the second slot with tasky on point to build meter and tron assist. I know it can be hard to get in with him without assist but hey.

How do you start Skrulls offense?

I’m having the worst time opening people up with Skrull or even starting the match with him for that matter, I know his decent bnbs but it doesn’t matter if I can’t get things going.

It just seems like as soon as the math starts I’ve got some wolverine/Zero/ammy frothing at the mouth just mashing buttons at me and I can’t do shit about it.

Right now my team is Skrull(tenderizer)/Spencer(armor piercer)/Task(forward shot), I know Skrull isn’t the best point character but right now I just have him there to learn him.

Your team is going to have a very hard time opening people up since you have no high/low assists to help with your mix-ups. Your best bet is probably mind games: get good at runaway, bait guards, and follow up with command throw. =/ The main reason I play Skrull as anchor is because his mix ups are so horrible and it’s very hard to get in with him. He’s best used when the opponent is getting desperate or feeling too comfortable.

Just be patient, don’t hesitate to advance guard when you are in the corner and remember with Skurll, even if you get one openning, it’s going to do you wonders. If you opponent gets to spammy/campy, you can try a meteor smash to hit them from behind to inferno, and go for a reset after that. Honestly, assists are really important for Skrull, and your assists don’t seem like they can help him land a ton of openings (but probably could help him extend combos). I use Tron Fire with and Disruptor with Skrull, and it works wonders.

Perhaps switch Spencer for Wesker or maybe She-hulk? I would say x-23 but her dmg is laughable at best. Unblockables are nice, so is that really the only way to make Skrull offense viable, just slap in a character with a high/low assist?

trying to create a team for skrull offence just seems like its going against the design of the character. he can command grab any body from more than half screen away, tenderizer, rolling hook, forward heavy and df heavy all have stupid range. and he has a teleport attack that beats almost all projectiles. i dont know about you, but that just screams, defensive/reactionary character to me…

Combofiend played a very good skrull. He had him as anchor and made a great comeback against floe on the first game. What i really enojyed is that he used the d+H loop all across the screen. I think he did 2 or 3 reps but it was great watching him clutch by doing that in the heat of battle. He had Deadpool for OTG but Captain America didn´t help Skrull in any way. The captain´s assists are not good. He did his best with no assists backing him up though. He then switched to his real team on loser´s bracket. Floe sent him to Losers 2-1 and Clockwork eliminated him…again. That Dark Phoenix.
