so how long until people start using spiderman in MVC3? another Sleeper like Wolverine

lol, i doubt anybody ever considered wolverine a sleeper.

Spiderman’s good though, he has good trickery and setups. He has to work for them though and most people don’t like having to work in this game.

The thing about Spiderman that makes him good is that hes another one of those characters with a combination of a good offense, and a solid defense as well. On top of that, he builds a great deal of meter while doing his core bnbs and dealing out solid damage as well. It’s really hard for ground orientated characters (Felicia, Wolverine, Hulk,) to approach him because hes so versatile with his dashes and web swing in the air. As a Wolverine main, I can see how Spiderman is definitely hard for him.

I don’t think Spiderman is great…but hes not bad at all.

I’m trying to find an answer for Trons Fire assist. Esco made me hate that bull crap last night. Do we literally have no other option but to snap her in? It seemed like the only thing that could stop it when placed in play was a random hyper.

I personally hate the idea of snapping people in because you lose both damage and meter build for the sacrafice of a CHANCE to deal damage and kill that assist. It’s not even a guarantee. So in a sense, you give two advantages for the chance of one advantage gain.

Key to beating Tron assist: block.

The Genius of this man is astonishing!!!:rofl:

But helper for Helper…haggar will beat her…however…she doesnt lose life every time she comes out like haggar does so you could send her out alot more frequently

@Dont Jump lol luckly i suck fighting with her…i get so OWNED everytime she is my last Character. but i will get her to fighting status soon :pray: i h:sweat:ope

Man, I have the same issue with Tron. You press 1 wrong button and its pretty much free punish too.

Well I didn’t mean to over simplify it but in a lot of cases, blocking is better than pushing buttons.

Unless you’re Wolverine

yeah i agree, but the chance is REALLY HIGH. no assist, no dhcs. Think of it like a power play in hokey wooo

yup, mvc3 is pretty lols. Its fun though. Definitely 10x more entertainment value than SSF4.

I just picked up Mortal Kombat.

It really is a strong tribute to Mortal Kombat II IMO. Which honestly, I’m happy about. Mk II was easily the best mk ever made and they took notice that most people agree with that. Some of the characters fatalities are a combination of their two fatalies in MK II. Jax, sub zero, johnny cage, and kung lao spring to mind. The games levels also are highly derived from the early mks as well (shang tsungs palace, the court yard, pit II, forest,)

The game is really funand entertaining. I’d say Raiden, Ermac, Noob Saibot, Mileena, and Kung Lao have the best fatalies that ive seen thus far. Some of them are extremely similar but some are very unique and awesome.

We’ll see what happens with the game or if i want to go to tournaments for it but it seems to be a very defense game. VERY defensive. I couldnt tell you a word on who i think is good/bad because i just literally played ermac for a few minutes and thought he was really easy to learn and fun. I’ll prolly play him?

The problem is you can’t kill her because she has too much life after a snap out and you have no meter so you can’t get a guaranteed kill unless you just use your x-factor right then and there.

Says the man that uses Magneto / Sentinel / Dante. Oh snap!

Most of you have probably already seen this, but S-Kill confirmed a couple of things about the SSFIV:AE DLC coming out in June.

O_o you know thats not a cheap team at all, right?

I enjoy MK. The story is pretty cheesy but all in all a fantastic job going old school on MK. Scorpion is coming for ya

Who said anything about cheap? We were talking about hard work. Lol I’m just messing with you. My team is cheap and it doesn’t take much work to use them so I shouldn’t be talking. I just abuse the DHC glitch all day. :xeye:

Dreading the day you get confident enough with that combo that I might as well just drop the stick once it starts. :lol:
