It is critical that you pay attention! The Nova combo thread

God dammit Desk… upstaging me… :slight_smile:

Video incoming.

Haha, I never thought to try linking grounded flight combos honestly. That combo is very hard though. His H Loop doesnt seem to work on all of the cast.

BTW Ve are you on Xbox??

The nova combo shows a new way to use javelin to push spencer/nova damage even further.

Okay, I’ve got a video of a universal version of the Desk combo, it is very hype and uploading now. However, it isn’t worth doing on any character but Sent (maybe Nem and Hulk), as the only reason it does that much damage is that you can link Fly>jB, on the rest of the cast you must do Fly>jA and that kills the damage scaling.

ALso, the jH loops don’t work on everybody, but you can easily replace the second jH loop with a L Rocket Punch loop for almost no change in damage.

Like I said, the universal version isn’t worth it as it only does 755k, the Sent version (with Fly>jB)does alot more…

Video is uploading to Youtube now.

Also, I am on Xbox, but my connection in this game is rage inducing and I refuse to netplay Marvel as I will throw my stick through the window… or worse… my television. I’ll play games with functional netcode though.

Nice, your Spencer is much better then mine…

Also, strangely enough… I just finished a video all about using the Javelin for raw tags like that. Touche.

It’s actually good for more then just combo’s too.

Wooooow Dat Spencer

RAGE!!!, but oh well =/

Iron Man would be such a good Character for that team too. Im so ass with him though

Yah I’d really like to learn more about Nova without Spencer, its just so convenient to have, I’ll try to keep posting leads if I find anything new, i found you can add two air wire grapples for miniscule damage after the nova assist in the spencer combo, and I’m working on a way to use javelin more without spencer as well. Theres a lot more to learn with this character, I’m sure of it.

Yeah… I’ve been so busy with Nova and some of the other characters I’ve left my spencer at a pretty basic level. There’s some natsy combo’s you can do with Spencer paired up with the Pulse assist too.

Anyways, here’s my dump for the day.
The new Tricks & Tech talking about Javelin Tags, Danke beat me to it, but thise should go into depth for you guys who use silly characters in silly orders.

And here’s the universalized Desk combo. It’s mad stylish, but not a very good combo if it’s not done on a fatty.

nice vids. that fly/unfly combo really seems to only be worth it on tall characters, otherwise it dumbs the damage quite hard to a level of his other bnbs. stylish nontheless tho.
something I’ve been experimenting with is to use c.mp, into fly into followups as save pressure in matches. works quite well with sent drones and allows you to actually easy combo after a hit - even without unfly if timed correctly.

also, there might be a glitch with javelin giving nova an unblockable under certain conditions. it only happend once and I wasn’t able to reproduce it, so gonna try it again in the following days to see what it was exactly.

I’m curious what combofiends come up with, if it’s true that he now plays nova, spencer, hawk.

edit: gz on front site : p

Ha finally did Ve’s Crumple Combo online =D

High Five. I can’t even do my own combo’s online…

Haha I know how you feel. That move won me the game and got me to 8th Lord =D 35-15 so far.

Lol I don’t even try it online. I just go for the noob Launch->:m::h:FLY:l::m::h::s:->Spencer crumple.

Fly shenanigans after blocked c.m is legit with assists. I’m not good enough to do that on reaction though.

Great find on the javelin tech! I’m gonna put in some lab time with that tomorrow. Nova/Spence is turning out to be so broken haha.

Why is it that sometimes… I get a rocket punch after Fly… even when I look at the inputs I did QCB, S MH… and I get a Medium Rocke Punch… it’s annoying.

Special moves take priority over Fly. MvC3 has a really big kara window, so stuff like this happens alot. Just slow it down and make sure the stick returns to neutral and it won’t happen.

This is the main reason the Desk style combo I posted a few days back is so hard.

Oh, okay. Thanks I’ll work on my execution then.

I have this combo with Nova where I do the normal fly unfly lots of heavys bnb and after the s I call nemesis’ launcher slam(ground bounce) and do centurion rush l then I can M Rocket Punch for wall bounce but haven’t found a way to continue the combo after that. Anybody have any ideas?

Need alot more info then that to help you out. List the whole combo and your whole team.

Nemesis/Nova/Task Master. :m:, :h:, :s:, j.:h:, xFly, :h: , xUnfly, :h:, :s: , j.:m:, j.:h: , j.:s:, call Nemesis, Centurion Rush :l:, Human Rocket Punch :m: and I can’t find a follow up. Now that I think of it I didn’t try this mid screen for the follow up. Usually I end up behind them from the centurion rush so the rocket punch sends them out of the corner. I tried Centurion Rush :h: but it didn’t connect, I was thinking maybe another rocket punch to super or try to wave dash :s:, j.:h: super but I haven’t played around with it yet. Also sorry for previous post was typing it in a rush.

Why not do Cent Rush M after Nemesis hits ?

I tried it and the opponent falls too fast.
