Thanks for the Info! Geeze is that ugly! :lol: Man, someones really missing out if they don’t give him a skeletor alt! It’s just too perfect…
I need a black or white centered color for my color coordinated team.
Sentinel/Wesker/Doom All Black Everything.
I would have much preferred the red purple, but thanks a lot for the info, it was a blow to my honor as a nerd to not know where that mess came from.
1.1 mil health which is above average. Not bad for a jack of all trades type character.
Yeah! Not bad at all! I think his good health and nice range on normals will help him a lot against those higher mobility characters. I think Tasky’s going to end up pretty good in the long run.
I would like to see more of his assists in action, though. I’m thinking his up arrow is going to be the best for a slow character like Hulk to get in with some light, quick lockdown.
The stream from today shows some Taskmaster stuff, one of his Sword Master followups (A quick head butt) is supposedly unblockable.
I also think some of the guys on stream says he has more followups after the headbutt.
Wow, that sounds almost too good to be true. Especially since I plan on using him on one of my prototype teams (Task/Storm/Tron).
I really can’t wait for taskmaster… He seems to be good all around and has lots if combo potential. Spidey SCHWING!
Funny how we still know so little about the guy when he’s playable…
I’m assuming angled legion arrow is DP+LM… but is there any confirmation for that?
And one question for clarity for your OP, does the high version of Guard Master counter overheads? I’d guess it does, but your OP only says it blocks mid attacks.
Not gonna lie, I don’t know much of anything on the properties of Gaurd Master. I don’t see why one wouldn’t counter overheads though.
Quick question: do his falling arrows count as an overhead?
I havent been following this thread much, so srry if it’s been answered already.
Unlikely, especially if Hidden Missiles aren’t.
Although it hasn’t been tested, I’m guessing they aren’t. Similar “raining projectile” moves like Dante’s Acid Rain or Doom’s Hidden Missle can be blocked low, I’d bet it would be the same with Taskmaster. Then again, you never know.
I guess no one bothered to test it, Bronzefist. :c - pretty unlikely, though.
The same goes for his ? Assist (the same upward-falling arrows) - they’re almost similar with Doom’s missiles - but we don’t know if they also track the opponent and other things.
Also, Tasky’s movement is pretty decent, based from what we saw on the streams. And if his Charging Stars do eat projectiles, he won’t have much problems into getting in.
How is Tasky compared to Wesker?
Does his sword have a huge range like Dante’s? And does he use it during any of his normals?
Although I can’t compare Taskmaster to Wesker (I’ll leave that to someone who has had extensive time with both), I can say that yes, he does have good range on his sword normals, standing , standing :h: and jump :h:.
I think Tasky’s HP is above average at 1,100,000. Not bad, was expect much worse from him.
I don’t think he would be much use if his health was as low as 800,000.
