Well he can’t build in the videos posted, and he doesn’t build meter while he has the swords summoned either so it looks like he might be a little intensive on the meter if they don’t change that up prior to release. Plus since his lvl 3 might only be accessible in DT mode, it pretty much means you’ll need 4 bars to use it, that move better do like 700k or something.
Yea pretty sure it OTGs. We’re trying to figure out if you can follow up from it though without blowing x-factor, hope so. Or at least make it so you can blow devil form lol (1 bar follow up…better than nothing I guess)
Maximum Vergil lets go. He looks so solid man.
Haha!! I was right! I totally called that Vergil would have a slash dimension hyper!! It’s over in the ultimate marvel thread. I’m so happy. Maybe I’ll be right about the servbot head hyper for Frank. Here’s hoping.
Anyway, to the actual character. I was really worried he’d be a clone of Dante. And for once I’m so happy I’m wrong. I LOVE that Vergil gets to use Beowulf, it really makes me happy. Although…4 hypers? Damn…
Ahh. In the vids, Vergil seem capable of canceling various specials and normals into his teleport. Depending on the teleport’s reach and quickness, you can perhaps use it to extend ground to air juggles? Like Helm Splitter, High Time>Teleport into the air>Air juggle, relaunch, Air combo or something.
Yo, we in there. Looks like I’ll finally have a legit third character now instead of the constant bouncing around I did/still do in Vanilla. Mad hype for Vergil for sure.
Vergil plays pretty much how i expected him too and i even got his theme that would be remixed lol.
Didn’t care for his voice over lines. I know it’s the same actor from DMC3…but they felt and sounded flat to me. His voice sounded emtpy.
Guess he isn’t motivated.
he looks like a more powerful dante with the tradeoff of needing lots of meter. whereas dante could build a ton of meter during his combos, vergil looks like he’ll need meter beforehand to execute the crazy stuff. his normals look better than dantes overall, and thats saying a lot.
I’m not a DMC fan, but I definitely see some things he has that will work with my team very very well.
Looks reminiscent of Dante’s Cold Shower>Stinger>Bold Cancel teleport setup. Does this mean Vergil also has a Bold Move?
I wouldn’t go so far to say Vergil’s normals will be better than Dante. Dante already has great normals. To me, Vergil looked overall faster, and more hyper meter dependent in combos (meaning combos will be no-where near as long as Dante). I mean…Vergil has 5 possible hyper setups now? Dante only has 2 (DT not a true hyper). That, and Vergil looks way more zoning based than Dante (maybe due to the speed of them).
wasnt that how he sounded in DMC3. i cant recall him being the most enthusiastic guy in the world. he seemed more the condescending mature type to Dantes more playful arrogance.
Don’t like the voice over. Same voice actor but, He doesn’t fell like the Vergil I know from DMC3.
P.S he’s 3d model(box around the chest) looks weird. I think they use wesker’s 3d model and added the head.
Overall I’m hype for vergil
it’s a new change to umvc3, at least current build. They allow characters to build meter during power up supers.
His stance seems kind of odd for his character. I realize he just straight walked at Dante calmly during boss battles, but I feel his stance is to stiff.
Also, pants were removed from my plane of existence when Vergil was leaked for this game.
he DOESNT BUILD METER with swords out. you can see it plain as day in the same video.
As long as Vergil can do rising sun, lunar phase, and atleast 3 starfall teleport cancels mid-air as a long ass bnb like Dante… I’m happy with life in general
It looks like it cost one meter to call swords around him, and another to put them in ~projectile mode. From the same vid
