H. P. Lovecraft would be proud - The Shuma-Gorath thread!

these are nice things to hear, especially the possibly higher priority on mystic smash

sorry for double post, but did you guys see the full UMvC3 cinematic?

Shuma actually makes an appearance, and he’s FUCKING HUGE and tearing up shit. ya get a good look at him too, he’s not some little snippet or anything.

but I’m not sure whether I should be hype or salty, since he’s depicted so fucking huge and badass while the one we all know is… well… you know XD

also, shoutouts to Tron showing Sentinel how to throw a real punch

Can we get a link. I wanna see, I wanna see!!

Awesome trailer.

That trailer was FUCKING AWESOME. I loved, loved, loved, loved, loved, loved, loved, LOVED it.

I honestly wasn’t expecting Shuma-Gorath to appear in it! Hell, I wasn’t even expecting the full trailer to be anything more than we had already seen in past trailers! But Capcom went out of their way and made it twice as long. And not only that, they threw in all of my favourite characters! MODOK, Sentinel, Hsien-Ko, Firebrand, Taskmaster!

The music was awesome, too, and it looked so fucking epic! Overall, excellent job here. Bravo, Capcom! You always know how to please me!

Remember Macarratti, When Shuma isn’t in his own dimension he has a limited power-supply. It probably takes much less energy to be in a smaller form than a larger one.

Shuma and Nemesis are the two characters I’m watching the most at the moment. Only thing is, it’s very hard to find videos of anyone doing UMVC3 shuma stuff yet.

Nice to hear that Frank/Shuma is good.

Frank/Shuma/Dorammu here I come!

I’m calling it now, Frank will suck long term in this game.

“You’ve always disgusted me.”
“FUCK YOU.”

should of been the dialogue.

Wow, Shuma like a freaking beast in the trailer.

Oh how I wish Shuma had a status buff hyper that let him grow bigger.

Nah that would make him a bigger target. besides his comobs wouldn’t work if he was much larger.
What he should of got was something like Hsien Ko’s hyper armor power-up so he could get in easily.

You say that like Hsien-Ko’s hyper armor helps her get in.
Or hit people.

Ground Mystic Smash H would be near broken if Shuma couldn’t be knocked out of it.
He would be like “OH HAI DOCTAR STWANGE WHATCHA DOIN THAR?” Bounce

What he should’ve got is a clone hyper similar to zero. Imagine how “mystic” that would look, and also help his rushdown game immensely for a few seconds

Well I guess Shuma got around pretty well this time.
A couple nice buffs, a good bitch (Hsien-ko), and a cool alt.
I’m pretty content

Yeah yeah, that’s all very nice now SOMEBODY PLEASE MAKE SOME VIDEOS TESTING STUFF OUT :frowning:

I need moar shuma!

Wow, Shuma feels a bit heavier in ultimate. He recovers a little bit slower after an air mystic smash, so his medium (chomp) is harder to hit with after this loop:

C.M, C.H, S, super jump, air.M, air.H Mystic Smash, (land), M, C.H, jump, air.M Mystic Smash…and so on.

Also, his 1,250,000 loop in x-factor level 3 still works, but it only does about 780,000. Man, I REALLY loved to 100% everyone with x-factor. I don’t know why, but I tend to do an accidental mystic ray after M, c.H, S in ultimate. I VERY rarely did this in vanilla, but it’s happening a bit too often in ultimate. Maybe his charge moves have changed a little somehow?

seems like Shuma actually got a lot of changes they didn’t list in the changelogs, if everyone’s not just tripping balls and imagining things.
