Boulder Punching 101 - Chris Redfield Thread The Director's cut

So my idea won’t work then I take it, or at least it wont work properly. What about his other hyper, you never hear about or see that one in any videos.

yeah it wouldn’t work. YOu could totally DHC from floating bomb into chris’ level 3 tho’, its one of the few ways we know to guarantee a hit.

Why woudn’t his second hyper work?

Push you back too far I think.

Yea seen quite a few vids doing that, but since it costs 4 meters i doubt its something im gonna be doing consistently so I was trying to see if he could dhc into his other hypers. Needless to say this is a tad disappointing, but im sure with time we will discover some good dhc’s for him, outside of the floating bomb level 3 one.

Two quick thoughts:

  1. Does grenade otg?
  2. Can you kfc into normals? I’ve seen hyper into hyper, but I’ve never seen hyper kfc into normal.
    If so that might open up options from last resort hyper. Something like ground magic xx boulder punches xx last resort kfc before rocket , ground magic to launcher, air magic, otg relaunch. Maybe…

Does Chris have any overheads?

Yeah, I’ve done it a few times with V.Joe

Chris can lay prone and fire his gun for great chip. It is stupid that it doesn’t count as a low attack. According to them he has no follows coming out of prone. I hope there’s more to it because I’ll hate to see a potential awesome move have limited application

Haunts seems to absolutely love chris Marvel vs Capcom 3 Preview for 360 from 1UP.com doesn’t say anything new though, he has ridiculous keep away but terrible AA. Although I personally didn’t know you could combo off his shotgun, thats nice to hear.

Even with the lack of chris love in the forums im definitely going to main this character. With all the options to keep the ground on lockdown, and the amazing duck that im assuming is going to get you out of proton cannon, HPB, possibly shinkuu, and plenty of over beam hypers (alot of hypers in general really) its looking like alot of people are gonna get destroyed because they’re expecting chris to be great. I was wondering though as far as the grenade hyper goes does the freeze on the first grenade hold them there for long enough to DHC into a level three from iron man, or wesker, or (insert other level 3 hyper here)?

no one hates him…we all secretly love this guy lol

I think it’s just because Chris just isn’t very exciting, but from all accounts he sounds like he’s shaping up to be very good according to the people who have actually gotten to sit down with him. At first I didn’t think much of the whole “Chris is the new Cable” talk it’s it’s starting to look that way. All he needs is a HVB.

But would we all marry and raise a family with him? Hmmmmmmm?

well…hes already spoken for(points at wesker)

OT, but what happened to the RE thread?

I don’t think it has anything to do with how exciting he looks but simply because there just isn’t anything to talk about, 80 percent of the matches we see him in he is an assist character, and the few times we see him on point he is getting rushed down and destroyed. For a while i actually started to get worried that he might suck on point to be honest since we barely saw any of him, it was nice to hear haunts think so highly of him.

Can someone tell me what his assists currently are? He used a landmine one a lot in those videos but it isn’t listed as one in the first post. I hope he still has the grenade one, but I could see the mines being good for corner pressure.

Unless im mistaken its mines, uzi, boulder punch.

Hmmm… in theory you should be able to connect Chris lvl3 after Trish’s Round Harvest hyper as well.
