Check out my Skrull play! The Skrull Video Thread!

Random thought, I was watching Marlinpie vs Flocker on the twitch.tv/live_oratory stream and saw the friend request “DjHuoshen wants to be your friend.” … I lol’ed

Thanks a lot for the reply. I know that sometimes i do j2H by reflex and I’ve been telling myself to do it less often. I am still constantly working on my gameplay.

And you are right about some of my command grabs. thing is is that my assists can get blown up if im too close so maybe its better when I go for full-screen command grabs.

Also, I usually play Magneto over Doom but that might change in ultimate. And i didn’t get a chance to do the combo into magneto assist correctly. Hopefully I’ll be going to play with the option-select crew more often so i can develop my gameplay. Once again, thanks for the criticism. It helps!

skrull anti phoenix???

I wouldn’t say anti-phoenix as in beats her for free, but XF stocked Skrull vs XF3 Dark Phx might be her closest to 5/5 matchup. She really has to respect his options. It’s sort of makes her play around him the way others play around her, there’s a lot of random factor and she absolutely cannot toss salty balls. Air XFC imo takes the vanilla matchup and makes it much safer.

It’s sort of like getting into a fist fight with a bigger dude and then pulling out a hand grenade lol

Skrull is her worst matchup, but its still a 50/50.

And I quote, “No TK Shot is safe!”

Here are some casuals with a buddy that I recorded a while back: [media=youtube]TzagKC1zcxY[/media]

congrats on your win my dude…funny how they were crackin on your gamestop pad…to asking where can i get one lol

Im not amazing with Skrull, and I have issues approaching which makes me throw out random command grabs, but overall I am average IMO.

Ignore the Double post. I lose a lot, but I did decently with skrull in this first video at [ 9:00 ]

Your Skrull is pretty good Vaxtin. If I could offer a word of advice: Stop sitting still. Blocking is important but waiting is just begging the opponent to give you his best set up. Also you made a lot of good guesses but even the bad ones would have been safer if you would remember to call a cover assist. The main thing is that this game favors offense, so don’t hand your opponent the advantage.

Yeah standing still becomes like training mode for the opponent. Moving around gives him a harder time trying to set something up. That’s why I kinda move around when I got the distance.

Anyone who wants ot be in this video let me know.

Skrull can get on that front page again!

^ What is this, his chin is not fantastic enough to be Skrull

I played Flocker last night in the Finals of a tournament ran on the Option-Select stream.
Check it out if you’d like: http://www.twitch.tv/optionselect/b/301236561
The Finals start at around 50:00.
Also you can check out the road to the finals in the archive and I’d love to know what you think.

Watched you play last night. Don’t forget after an airdash you can hit L and that will let you be able to block after you recover from the L. Otherwise you can’t block while airdashing and falling down after the airdash. Also to change things up, instead of going for the ambiguous cross ups, you should occasionally backdash and throw 3H. If you hit them, they’ll airtech and you can get an air command grab in for free with plenty of time for the confirm. You’ll have to only worry about them teching forward, and even then some chars cannot avoid the throw if they tech forward.

I guess one could say you
Puts on shades
brought the pain

YEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

lol seriously though good shit bro, was rooting for you against flocker but hommie is just too damn solid, plus after a while he read your dash unders and started punishing you for going for em.

Still haven’t got used to not being able to block during airdash. I havent been playing cause my stick broke :confused: But i will try to use that now because it messes me up on the way down.I will also try throwing out 3M. I was kinda rusty so I was getting caught by stuff I shouldn’t have, especially on his incoming characters.
I’ve also been experimenting in casuals with crouching M on incoming characters. Acts as a decent anti-air and puts skrull a low position making it harder for him to be hit. Thanks for the criticism. I greatly appreciate it.

Sorry I didn’t deliver haha.
And yeah sometimes I would try to empty dash but I wasn’t blocking correctly. Next time bro

Hey guys. I don’t play Skrull, but I have a friend who does. This is his first time playing Marvel since way back in May, and since Ultimate came out, he’s trying to, not only relearn Skrull, but pick up arcade stick too! I commend him. :smiley:

Now I play with stick, so I try to help him with that, but I’m no Skrull player(I’m a Spidey web-head). He asks a few questions in the video; If you have any tips or hints for him (Skrull or stick-wise), let him know, preferably in the comments of his youtube if you can. I’m more of an SRK-phile than he is, since he is only just now becoming more of a tournament player

Stupid YT is not letting me respond right now /facepalm

Here’s what I could fit in the comment box:

"Been there dude, switching to stick you’re just going to be bad for a while. Outside of the obvious time/practice I found getting a cheap octagonal restrictor gate made dragon punches and quarter circles feel much better.
As far as good teammates for Skrull that not everyone’s using (and yeah Vergil is on everyone’s team right now) try playing a little bit of Taskmaster, Dormammu, Doom, or Sentinel. I’d post more but I’m running out of space, practice Skrull mission 8 for some good tech!!"

Some bnbs for ultimate

Some tech to use with vajra assist.

I’m almost certain that more damage could be added before little ping pong thing, but this was a fairly reliable way to get the extra damage. It should also work midscreen, but calling an assist at the right time while wave dashing is beyond me.
