Can you break out of combos?

[_Insert_Name_Here]

You can only break out of combos if you use hidden missiles as an assist.

UMVC3 is all about abusing top tier characters, unblockable moves, X-factoring yourself to victorys/infinites, and shit ton of teabagging.

Abusing top tiers, yeah, kind of. Everything else is just… no. Especially the last one.

Use Hsien-Ko with gold armor or go play something else

Hidden Missiles can work too

You can break out of combos online.

Just yell as loud as you can into your headset until the other guy drops the combo.

SALTY uses ANGRYPOST on NEW USER! … … … it’s not very effective.

I totally see how new players to the game can get way intimidated by people who master basic BnB’s… they don’t understand the “Dance” yet. Cut the guy some slack.

And how many tourneys have you? AND HOW will that help him get better? You new kids need to stop being bitches and take the hit if you get hit. Why cut him slack? Because hes new? He wont learn shit if you pussyfoot with him, Ill tell it to him straight.

HEY NEW GUY DONT GET FUCKING HIT, simple as that if you get hit they will combo you, learn BLOCKING SPACING MIND GAMES AND OPTIONS… oh wait are those some of the key elements a good player possesses ? WELL GEE if you learn these things ( and a LOT of you guys need to learn this shit ) you will be much better off then Crying about the game. PLAY instead of COMPLAIN.

A match is BASICALLY a war between two people, they shoot you ( hit you ) its gonna hurt unless they suck and shoot badly ( terrible combos,no hit confirms, AKA they dont do max damage ) so its a lot like war. Especially Marvel, a game were getting the first hit may decide the match.

TL;DR

Take the hit if you got hit because it means you messed up. Accept the Mess up and learn from it.

To be fair, a 100% combo is only guaranteed to kill one character, so it actually means you didn’t defend properly at least 3 times, or called an assist at the wrong time to get happy birthday’d.

the game should be about skills, not a COD-like fighter.

ok then are there ways to prevent getting combo’d? other than advancing guard?

I’m going to call you out on that statement. If you are getting hit it is because you lack defensive skills. The fact that you don’t understand how to not get hit, is that you lack the matchup knowledge to even understand how to put up a defense. All of this is knowing your characters, what they are capable of, and knowing what your opponents characters are capable of.

All that is a skill in itself. The only way to prevent being combo’d is to know specific knowledge about every possible situation in the game, all of which is character dependent, and being able to summon up the correct response to one those 1000’s of situations in a millisecond.

First step is that you need to understand your character’s offensive and defensive tools.

Asking “How do I not get hit?” is about as useful as asking, “How do I win? but please give me the one paragraph version.” That is not how fighting games work. You won’t get far in Marvel with that attitude.

You have to go study your characters, figure out the easy to do combos, play around with some hard to block setups and traps. Learn your mixups and do some hard work like everybody else.

I just scream obscenities and/or whisper sweet nothings into my opponents ear until they drop the combo. Isn’t this day 1 tech?
