"By the hoary hosts of Hoggoth!" The Doctor Strange Thread!

you would have to unfly but I don’t see why not at all

7 Rings is going to piss off beam assist.

Its greatest strength imo will be used as a deterrent, Strange with meter will change the pace of a match with teams who’s utilize beam assist bug time.

Ha ha, Strange v Strange mirror match. One calls in a beam assist, the other activates seven rings to punish, but the first strange activates his seven rings to punish that. Would look so flash.

is 7 Rings AirOK?

nope

Another thing to think about he it comes to 7 Rings is that the beam won’t catch beams from semi or super jumps since the beam looks like it won’t shoot diagonally.

it’s pretty wide though, Wide enough to catch Akuma air lasers at most anglees.

I do wonder now what happens if it whiffs tho, does he stay proj. invulnerable?

The only way the super will whiff is if the opponent is throwing projectiles from complete top of the screen super jump height. Which is rather ineffective considering Strange has a Dante teleport to punish that shit and you can’t call assists at super jump height without funny flight or multiple jump/wall jump based techniques.

Strange is basically an anti zone character. He zones you until enough shit is on the screen to rush you down, but you can’t keep him away either. Which means in theory he will be the counter character to the new zone oriented design of Marvel. You don’t want to be zoned by him because you will get rushed but you can’t zone him or you will get punished. Which will most likely force more zone oriented characters to have to go in on him. Which means he would only really have trouble with pure rushdown characters. Which with good assists I don’t see that being the hugest issue either.

All assists must come from the ground except for a select few so for those that use typical projectile based assists for rushdown or zone, Strange on the screen with meters instantly kills off a majority of use for their assist.

I can’t wait to see the dog fights between Strange and Dormammu.

I can’t wait to see how that match up pans out.

The fight could go either way but I think they will benefit greatly from each others company…

hence why i have them on the same team, that and besides the fact Ima strange fan lol

I kind of think it’ll go in stranges favor, the zoning game is pretty even and he’s one of the few characters that has absolutely nothing to fear from stalker flare.

Q&A is finally up guys.

edit: …and apparently removed by Max.

LULZ.

Max apparently uploaded the wrong video which had issues. he’s rendering the correct one and will upload later tonight.

also, wtf, it said that my IP was banned for a while there… had to clear out my browser’s cache and cookies to fix it.

Lulz trolled.

Max’s Questions and Answers Video for Strange & Nemesis:

lol Capcom keeping it OG with two 7 rings beams colliding in Strange mirror matches, they cancel each other out.

and max mentions his normal are pretty unsafe, gotta make em safe.

maybe cancel into teleport or stuff like that. SJC’ing an RDP motion is gonna be a bitch though.

edit:
@DJ01: Max didn’t really confirm or deconfirm whether or not illusion activates on projectiles in the Q&A

Max didn’t answer whether or not you could do the Mystic Sword loop, but he mentioned answering some questions via Marvel Madness so here’s hoping we’ll see it (or not).
