He's in the trees! And he's flarking mad! - The Rocket Raccoon Thread

Max described it as such in his latest video, but when I saw it in the reveal trailer, that was the first thing I thought of. We’ll have to wait for the Assist Me! to judge.

Just so you guys know, some health estimates came out and found that Rocket Raccoon has around 750k, which is pretty on par with Strider. Nothing too surprising though.

750 k?

better than I though

Lol I noticed J.S being like BB Hood’s J.HK from VSav. I hope it’s as good because I loved spamming that. B]

It honestly looks better to me.

float cancel ,instant overheads confirmed:tup:

god im going to lose alot week 1

Rocket scares me so much. Logs, Traps, BURROWING, OMFG WHERE THE HELL IS HE NOW factor (To replace X-factor.)

Ugh… I wanna use him so bad!

I want him more. I’ll fight you over him, I’ll do it!
pulls out a knife

I WANT TO MARRY YOU YOU BASTARD RACCOON.

MOTHER FUCKER I/WE MADE HIM WHAT HE IS AND WE STILL NEED HIM! BRING IT GUY Pulls out Megaman X, Looks at him like WTF? and throws him away before pulling out two knives and crouching.

Screw X. I have a gun.

By American standards I have EVERYTHING now! Always bring a gun to a knife fight.

its probably my eyes playing tricks on me…but does pengilum look lower in the new g4 preview then it did in the reveal videos?

the closer you are to rocket the lower it goes i guess

well thats what it felt like to me

Lockdown assist + float instant overhead

You’re welcome.

So what happens if he does the trap super and it misses? Does it become a giant trap on the screen? Because if so…I’m thinking that anti XFactor lvl3 technology:

-lay some traps
-cancel trap into trap super (if it remains active on whiff?)
-spam burrow until you run out their meter?

I can already feel that Phoenix is going to get burnt up by her teleporting right into a trap because he’s underground. God, dont let him be able to call assists too…

It does indeed stay on the screen, and it stays for a LONG time, and you can have more than one out at once.

I kind of feel like his j.H is pretty bad, or at least very specialized, doesn’t look to have a good hitbox. His j.M and j.S are both so great though.

Stressing his bad air normals when he has the grenade and j.M is moot.

What if he has two hyper traps on the ground and burrows. Can he activate X-Factor underground? Rotfl. Will they bounce off one trap into the other trap?

I need Rocket Raccoon to not only be tournament viable but very rage worthy, as are all my previous characters. I need a successor to vanilla Trish.

What I’m wondering is if he activates a trap, whether it be one of his normal ones or the Spring, in XF, and then XF wears off, will the traps have his XF damage, or will they do normal damage? I doubt it’d be the first, but it’d definitely be interesting. Maybe I’ve just been playing too much TF2 lately.

Bad j.H matters for airthrows mainly, altho’ the really good range of the other ones probably helps.

What happens now? I have the impression that it loses the bonus, am I right in remembering that rekkouha xfc rekkouha also buffs the damage on the first one? Whatever rule applies there probably applies to the traps.

Edit: XF underground is a really good question too, seems like it should be possible, but what happens? I presume it just pops him up out of the ground.

And you can specifically chain spring traps. Which is freaking awesome altho hard to set up. That there’s a troll kill.

If he cant combo off airthrow It wouldnt be so much of a loss for me. Seeing as Trish couldnt combo off airthrow either…

Who knows, he might have deceptively long reach. Who knows, he might be able to frame trap an airthrow off of j.M.

With airthrows I was more thinking that he’s not gonna be pushing H that much in the air anyways, I admit I don’t remember what he even does in his air throw.

he can combo off a air throw It’s in his trailer
normal gun or oil bomb for the otg
