Check out my Skrull play! The Skrull Video Thread!

thank you very much!! I’m trying to break him out of Skyrim for once, and back into fighters (so I’ll actually have a local to practice with now :P)

Encouragement helps lots… thanks again!

I played quite a bit on Monday night with the Option-Select crew the other night. I rocked a few teams I’ve been working on. Skrull-Doom-Sentinel, Skrull-Trish-Doom, and Skrull-Vergil-Sentinel. Check it out if you’re interested in running Skrull with some of these characters. I would also love it if you critiqued my gameplay :slight_smile:

Here’s the link. (I play for a lot of part 1 and a bit of part 2)

Also here’s a youtube version of a match against Flocker

P.S. Tune in to the Option-Select stream every Monday night @ twitch.tv/optionselect

Yo Pain you are a based skrull man. At 2:20-2:21 st.L crossed under was hella based. Thank you for posting the vid man.

Here is some advice for the Skrull vs Zero matchup since I play Zero as well. There are going to be times where Zero player will put you in blockstrings and try to frame trap you but Flocker is a different story cuz he keeps throwing his priority around like nothing. So I think you should try out the Doom beam assist to cover the ground so you can actually get some wavedashing in cuz Hawkeye assist can nail sentinel. You can use the sentinel assist for mixups. Also J.(charge)s will be your best friend cuz super skrull’s air dash gets above Zero so you maybe able to tag him with it and kill him but don’t do it too often cuz Flocker was seeing you do it consistently and did medium lightning. Also try to throw out more rolling hook in unison with your doom assist. I saw you use rolling hook in combos but I barely saw any just raw because that move can really throw people off who are ready for dat based skrull swag. Good stuff man. You taught me a lot about the Zero vs Skrull match too.

I feel like you tried to go for the dash under mixup one too many times. You should have baited it and went for a command grab.

I suck… need help

Thanks for the advice. I’ll probably end up playing flocker again in a tournament today. I’ll take all this stuff into consideration. I feel way more confident in the matchup.

BTW The reason I posted was for people to see the link I put of the stream archive lol. That flocker match is more than a week old.Just put it up for kicks. But Thanks anyways! :slight_smile:

I think you’re too quick to meter dump; instead of hit confirming to start a combo you hit confirm to land a super. This is unnecessary and wasteful because you’re sacrificing potential damage you could have dealt. For example, the first hit confirm you had with Stone Dunk you could have possibly taken out both character in a happy birthday possibly not using any meter at all, let alone XFC.

hey guys, I am a long time Super Skrull user, and I do not think I am as good with him as I should be. I’ve been using him in MVC3 as an anchor, and I usually win with his random factor. anyways, since UMVC3 is out, I want to know what is a good team to go with Super Skrull. I want Super Skrull on point, then Hawkeye (plus whichever assist is his best), and a really good anchor. any ideas?

I recommend Strider as an assist for Skrull as well as an anchor potentially. Vajra can make command grab resets safe and can add a fair bit of damage to the bnbs. Even with a terrible strider, xf3 and ourobouros should kill at least 1 char.

I was thinking of going with hawkeye on 3rd and strider on 2nd hmmm…

so you guys think I should use Skrull, then Hawkeye, then Strider, or Skrull, then Strider, then Hawkeye. Is Hawkeye really a good anchor in this game?

That’s what every one is saying.

I start using skrull at 5:06

=/

Try to set up a ground game with skrull. He has good normals and use your air attacks occasionally to be unpredictable.And if you are gonna take risks with meteor smash, try to have drones cover you. Also when you land a grab, you can call drones and combo off of it if you are too far to just Down H them. Besides that you just gotta finish your combos

Hey got a newish one for ya

I’m not a huge fan of using his Flame Kick to OTG because it can’t be followed up unless Inferno or Orbital Grudge (whiff) xx Fatal Buster is used. In your first combo against Fire Brand, I would have done something like Stone Smite, :b::b:, c.:h:, s.:s:, j.:s: xx :h: Meteor Smash xx Inferno. STILL, you got the job done. :smokin: Nice Skrull.

That’s the team I’ve been wanting to play. I’ve just been messing with Ghost Rider and Firebrand though. Hard knockdown plus Skrull’s easy otg and good damage. Yes please. And Skrull and Strider + drones. Too much.

Watch Part 3 for the rest of the last set. I guess it was cut off.

damn, those were some really good matches nasty. and dat arthur, crazy stuff.

I just finished watching the SCR replays. I think both you and spider-dan would’ve done real well.
