Lol true. but I plan on doing shit like 2 hits teleport + assist. Two hits teleport +assist. Over and over. Making a slow but frustrating experience.
This team will be Godlike though for sure.
Again Iāll believe it when I get my hands on the game.
Oh, I agree completely. I hope Sword Storm and Blistering Swords donāt scale and end up being amazing, because 2 meters can be a lot to spend. The game claims to build meter much slower. I was only commenting on his Spiral Sword formation. Deviljin summed it up. Free mixupā¦ great, but because of the scaling, is it really worth it? Just try harder for a mixup with assist, or mxups where you need to push buttons, lol.
If you ask me, almost anything with assist + teleport is pretty derpy. Just the way the game works.
Most definately. Then you add another derpy layer in the form of Swordourboros super and you got a double derp burger.
Iām going to laugh so hard when you guys get a look at Vergilās frame data.
Best post. Period.
Why? Youāve seen it? TELL US.
Talked to some of my friends who got the game early from some mon n pop stores:
Vergil, Devil Trigger w/ X-factor level 3 is the new Dark Phoenix. The speed and damage stacking boost is brutal.
Wonāt believe it until I see. I think any character X-Factor 3 is the new Phoenix. Well, not any. But Wesker seems like heād have similar potential.
Wesker has dat X-Factor Level 4 in his pocket. Heās the real āDarkā.
Why is that so hard to believe? Iāll tell you this Vergil was basically made to be an anchor, when he was developed for this game thatās what they had in mind. A character that with enough meter can decimate an entire team in seconds.
Oh so now add some Phoenix into Vergils Wolverine/Wesker esque gameplay? LOL
Yeah I figured he was basically designed to be pretty self sufficient once he had the meters. Which is probably why heās negative on almost everything because they want you to just durp out on swords and XF so everything is suddenly safe or whatever the fuck. Canāt wait to see people trying to snap in Dark Vergil early. LOL.
I wanna make use of those crazy DT assists so Iāma work a little harder and see if I can get him to kill one character or at least build 2 meters then throw him in the back so I can run his assists. Which will them allow me to run his crazy anchor game.
Iām excited about him being a great anchor, and always wanted him to function as that role. Since when he was first announced. Just donāt think heāll be as broken or āboringā as Phoenix ever was. Not to me anyways.
**Edit: **Am I the only one who finds it amusing that none of the ātop playersā (whereās clockwork) know how to use Vergil apparentlyā¦ http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=oR0sNXGpR_Q#! Lol.
I agree with the fact that Vergil is disgusting as an anchor.
Itās not only as an anchor though, itās just vergil with meter in general.
Spiral swords nets you 2 50/50 opportunities assistless. Teleport front or back(they canāt react, the swords hit too quick), if blocked, back dash to get them out of blockstun, teleport front or back again. As an anchor, with XF/3, the combo is pretty much a guaranteed kill.
His normals are really unsafe, his DT is really good for that added airdash and GIANT judgement cuts which make his blockstrings safer AND extend his combos.
Comboing is kinda akward with all the swords, just gonna have to deal with it.
Can combo off all throws rather easily, airthrows you can simply do dash L>M>H>Stinger>Teleport>blablalba. Ground throw can be OTGād with high time into bubble super. Not sure if the ground throw can be OTGād midscreen though.
Freddy loco was managing to extend combos of hightime using Jam Session which is like the only assist that hits that high, so Vergil/Dante probably gonna be BFFs to get the most out of those J.Ss. Also Bubble Shuffle>DT>Cold Shower BnB works, and considering bubble shuffle is really hard to block, yeahhhh.
Assists are pretty meh though, maybe I just didnāt find the right way to abuse them.
Well his normals are extremely abstract like Captain Americaās so people are most likely getting blown up due to being unsure of where to place them or how to keep them safe. Youād probably see them instantly do better if they just saved him for anchor and just durped out on Dark Vergil. Especially considering Dark Vergil sounds like something any lazy Vergil player can put together and start tearing up a team with. I guess it should have been obvious a character with a level 4 super was going to be relegated to durpy Wesker anchor status.
His point game will most likely take a lot more time to refine if possible. Iād like to see people find a way to make his point game work and itās obvious everyone was getting blown up in Maxās video because they were using him on point instead of Dark Vergil thoughtless shenanigans.
Niniā¦how the hell you gonna play Vergil and not try out DTād Judgment Cut assist? I know that shit has to be the business.
Oh and also let me know how the double air dash and triple jump works for Dante.
So Vergil is the new Dark Wesker, or maybe even worse? I was getting scared of Dark Strider, but this guy sounds even worse to deal with in XF3.
Well, RROD, so no new info till tomorrow.
lesadface.
Itās so obvious this character was basically made to be Dark Wesker the character. Why the fuck would they give someone a level 4 super? Not so they can be gdlk in the front obviously. Capcom must have figured āwell weāve already done a character that revolves around a level 5 superā¦i wonder what would happen if we made a character around building 4 meters instead?ā. Capcomā¦
When people put him in the front they see his Captain America normals and freak out and just figure to throw him in the back where swords and DT just ride his ass to another 9 months of Dark Wesker BS. Hopefully Strange and Strider will play around more thoughtful gameplans. LOL.
