Yes its an overhead. @Code Blue it was done as an assist also.
This is what Seth said when I asked him during the stream questions. And then he proceeded to do it with Nova on point but not as an assist. So I can’t say with 100% assurance, but I’m just going off what he said.
That’s wonderful news! It means even if the Pulse doesn’t somehow cover my needs (and I’m hoping it will), then the Rider Kick will be a fine and relevant substitute on my team. Thank you for sharing this info with us.
who was it again that said this guy is going to have easy combos
I can see some fly / unfly business already
looks like I can get creative again
I’m going to claim the nova combo thread
I’m already imagining he fly/unfly cancel shenanigans.
Going to pair him with Sentinel’s Drones, so I can get the mixups going.
Cool, thanks for the back up clarification.
As long as they keep it organized and not just post the guide combos and leave at that, I have no issues with takes over the combo thread. I hate having to search through a thread just to find combos because the OP decided to just make the thread and leave it at that. If needed, I’ll be happy to take over the combo thread if other people don’t want to keep it up.
I’m thinking Speed Tackle will be his punishment hyper like Viper’s Emergency Combination, Nova Force and Grav Beam will probably alternate as combo enders depending on the combo and DHC options. I’m thinking one will definitely be more DHC-out friendly. They should really make that red health thing optional though
The tackle one blew through arthurs goddess bracelet hyper. Not going to say its beam/projectile invulnerable but it sure looks that way.
I’m still pretty sure Nova Ping pong has invincibility on start, through the first charge.
Its either completely invincible or at the very least projectile invincible since it beat our arthurs fireballs in the nycc video. Naturally id prefer full on invincibility but Id be ok with just projectile.
I just want to say that while Nova looks freaking awesome, his wining pose in the picture on the victory screen completely and utterly terrifies me.
That shall be the thing of my nightmares for the next couple of days.
He’s the only new character without a lvl 3, so capcom must think he’s pretty solid NOT to need it.
I’m just thinking: What placement would Nova be, considering his ability to use red life? Point, assist, or anchor?
I feel like since the red life thing makes him a sacrifice character in some cases, but not enough to be point. You don’t want to sacrifice the point character. So maybe assist or anchor. And the more I think about it, achor sounds fucking scary. By the time Nove is last, his damage potential could help him with cmebacks. And with XF3, he’d be like DP :wow: The only problem is XF recovers red life, so maybe an assist perhaps.
I’m also very hype to get in the lab with this guy. Nova and Ghost both look like they have some very cool combo possibilities. Vergil to a lesser extent.
I don’t get this concern about no level 3. With most other characters right now, a lvl3 is nothing but a giant inefficient waste of meter. Yeah you see a gravity squeeze here an there for most characters the lvl3 is pretty much worthless. I’m just glad he has hypers with versatility. One beam, one reversal, one large radius/OS hyper.
I don’t think we know enough to make that claim yet, we aren’t even sure what his 3 assists are yet which would play a big role in his placement. But Im thinking either point or second.
The way they’ve cheapened airdash, which weakenes air mixups…anyone with a telport sounds like boss in the game, so don’t put vergil down.
I was just talking playing with combo’s in the lab. I think Vergil looks the most powerful of the new guys, with Ghost and Nova right behind him.
From the Looks of things Nova definitely does not need a level 3 he seems like hes going to be a Boss… I really cant understand the massive amount of negativity he has been getting on stream and on forums … The whole “Nova Sucks,Looks Boring, Is Whack or a Clone” thing really is weird. Watch when we start bodying people theres going to be a Nova Bandwagon you heard it here first.
It’s not soo much a claim, it’s just his game revolves around his red life. That sounds like a huge play factor for him. I’m just considering what that might intitle to way more than assist abilites.
I think the most powerful of the revealed characters and in order is…Too hard to tell they all look pretty boss but I really think Strange Nova and Hawkeye will be pretty godly.
Of course its too early to tell, but all teh newbies look decent at worst.
I just think Nova is one of those characters that will benefit from some real lab time. He’s got a very linear move-set, but alot of different ways to apply that moveset. I see big damage and mixups with and without some kind of assist backup.
