Dark Slayer Style - The Vergil General Discussion Thread

^^
yea that has been stated a few times already. i dont know how people have come to the conclusion that he builds meter with swords.

i wonder if his slash dimension super is punishable on block. right after he kinda just stands there sheathing his sword for a second and maybe a beam super could actually reach him.

he looks like someone i want to put on my team. i just hope he doesnā€™t have the ā€œcarpal-tunnel-syndrome-from-training-modeā€ execution that Dante has. my hands feel like they want to fall off after trying to practice bold canceling and all its teleport/acid rain shenanigans after like an hour or two in training mode.

his teles seem a little slow.

At first was kind of dissapointed, heā€™s Hawkeye to Danteā€™s Taskmaster.

But thenā€¦ Spiral swords. Too great.

Flashbacks to Kanta-Kunā€™s shop.

You know I wasnā€™t thinking about putting Vergil on my team but then I saw teleports and sword ringsā€¦I think I like dis gai. Definitely experimenting with him on day 1. Thing is I didnā€™t like how Dante played, but Vergil though with similar moves still looks very different, a ryu to akuma kind of thing. Hell if it gets crazy enough he might even replace Wesker on my team O.o

What donā€™t you know? Swords are cool.

Vergil looks beautiful, lol @ haters who claimed he was a waste of a slot till the trailer dropped.
If heā€™s ā€œtoo good/easyā€ heā€™s probably gonna get painted as the new Wolverine.
BUT IDGAF :looney:

I just hope he doesnā€™t have combos as long as dantes, I know they changed dante up big time and his combos wonā€™t be nearly as long Iā€™m just hopin this guy doesnā€™t take his place as in 15-20 marvel second combos. other than that he looks really cool and since his swords are a level 1 I wonder if people might make meter building teams around him, then when u have 5 meters just go to town because you know there will be a certain assist in the game that when paired with swords is just gonna be the ultimate lockdown

Vergil wasnā€™t really an energetic person to begin with.

Iā€™m so hype for UMVC3 now. Vergil turned out the way I expected him to be. Heā€™s quick, versatile, and pretty mix-up heavy. Iā€™m sure with the right assists Vergil will become a great character with lots of things to flesh out and discover as time goes on.

Recent screenshots confirm that Vergil also has Round Trip =O

Vergil 's level 3 reminds me alot of Byakuya Kuchiki 's Bankai.

R.D.T.U.

Mainedā€¦I already see his bullshit factor.

This has probably Ben covered but, why does he basically have LV.1 Ouroboros? :sad: cā€™mon son

Itā€™s like a level 1 defense forcefield that hits on contact, and for another meter you can shoot them as projectiles. So more like a level 2 Ouroboros.

I mentioned in the general Ultimate Marvel thread that Vergilā€™s character portrait changes when he goes into DT. I assume Danteā€™s does the same thing nowā€¦ Donā€™t know if anyone here has noticed or pointed it out.
Figured Iā€™d pass that along.

Except for when he fights.

Vergil plays the same as his MUGEN version pretty much. Go download it for the ā€œbetaā€ test.

Still hope he has some elements of Hibiki thrown in there.

to even get an ouroboros like effect, he needs to spend 2 meters, plus it doesnt look like it lasts anywhere near as long as striders, plus they disappear once they have done hits in close range. i dont know what strider players are upset about tbh. its obvious they arent going to be remotely similar.

On another note. I wonder if those swords are classed as projectiles while they are spinning around vergil, with durability points etc, because if that is the case, id like to see how he deals with beam hypers. it would suck if akuma/dorm/ryu etc could just destroy their durability points and wipe them out by just making him block a beam hyper.

LOL i can already see Vergil being a retarded anchor thanks to LVL 3 xfactor and teleport/swords shenanigans.

I hope his intro vs Trish is ā€œWho the fuck are you?ā€
