its one hell of a good poke, beats out most jump ins I’ve tried it against. huge reach and since the mirage feint cancels move you forwards, you can always follow up on it. you usually can hit confirm on reaction too.
Not sure if this has been found, but I’ve been using a different C hop loop:

hop B C 2C arrow attack B C hop B S (2C in the corner) arrow attack B C S air combo
Tested it out of the corner and it works midscreen.
X-23 BnB:
5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land, 5M, 5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land 5M, 5H, 5S, sj, j.5M, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land, 236M (charge) xx 236LM
X-23 BnB (easier variant):
5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5H xx j.236L, land, 5M, 5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5H xx j.236L, land 5M, 5H, 5S, sj, j.5H xx j.236L, land, 236M (charge) xx 236LM
Wow this thread helped me a ton.
I wanted to play her just because but if I go over it in my head.
Good meter build. DHC options. Good assist. Damage potential. It’s all there. Wonder if anyone is gonna break her and make her really look GDLK. Was watching a match earlier and Yipes said he wants to play her. Wonder what we can all see down the road. I already play her on point, gotta ton more to learn though. Breakfast, then off to the lab.
I found that doing a dash into a TKed Dive Kick catches a lot of people by surprise more often than not. This is an overkill combo but you could split the entire combo into 2.
1.Weapon X Prime into Mist (DHC reset)
2.Okami Shuffle into Weapon X Prime into Weskers Super Counter (DHC reset)

The dive kick isn’t an overhead but TKed Dive Kick is really good since her Talon Attack does have a lot of priority but doing it from high in the air can cause it to whiff and get u in trouble if you’re not careful. TKed Talon Attack increases the speed of the attack by a ton since you’re doing it the instant you go to the air and it has a broke ass hit box that will pretty much outprioritize any physical attack that isn’t invincible. Higher in the air Talon Attacks are still good for crossing up moves that are difficult to hit like Tron’s fire assist. Just aim it on top and behind the assist and i’tll beat it clean and allow u to even start a combo on her.
Nice combo btw.
So I guess the new BnB for X-23 is:
5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land, 5M, 5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5M, j.5H, land, j.5M, j.5M, j.5H, j.5S xx 236L, land, 5H, 5S, sj, j.5M, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land, 236M (charge) xx 236LM
instead of:
5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land, 5M, 5H xx 214H, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land 5M, 5H, 5S, sj, j.5M, j.5M, j.5H, j.2H xx j.236L, land, 236M (charge) xx 236LM
It seems to be easier and does more damage.
Hey guys, this is my first time in the mvc3 forums but I’ve been reading in the forum for a while and i have been using x-23 a lot, online mostly.
With that said I’ve been using the following BNB. It looks flashy, but is also pretty easy to pull off, online included. Its not the most damaging combo, but it is good if you’re just getting used to x-23’s advanced techniques.

Let me know what you guys think.
Is there away to combo into WXP w/ drone assist?
Actually you can, I saw Tatsu do it by calling out sent drone assist before doing an otg ankle slice then comboing into wxp. I’ve seen him do this at mid-screen and in the corner so I’m assuming it’s consistent. The only problem is that I can’t seem to recreate this in training mode at all. Either I otg to fast before the drones reach or I otg to late and my opponent gets up. I just can’t get the timing for it.
I feel like I’m starting to get the hang of X-23’s movement as a weapon, you can really surprise people and mix things up as well as make things miss with her ground dashes.
Posted some new videos over in the video thread, check em out and let me know if you have any feedback.
Air tag to Sentinel combo [media=youtube]tNsJwiudOU4[/media]
Hitstun scaling resets so you can do crazy shit. Works off an up exchange (medium-big chars) or down exchange (everybody I’ve tried). There is a lot more you could squeeze out of this too. Not optimal for this team because it could just DHC Trick but ya know…
Nice find, definitely will apply this to my X-23/Sentinel/Iron Man team, I gotta try some aerial Exchange fly combos w/ Tony Starks too.
Did you? Couldn’t see them, must be going blind. I did watch ETR’s vids and that reminded me I should use more Neck Slice with assists to cover me during the charge up time. Also been trying out feint strings, but it’s a pain since my pad doesn’t read qcb inputs well anymore. And that exchange combo looked mad lol.
I’ve been recently having a lot of trouble with dormammu, flame carpet is really annoying to get around. He can push block you into it and if hes in the cornet you cant cross him up. He can also teleport when you superjump or do something in the air to get space.
Very, very difficult. I tested this a bit as well, and it’s too situational in order for it to be an effective tool. Stick with another assist if you can, such as Dormammu, Ammy, or Deadpool. All should work fine!
Outside of the corner, you need a lot of air movement with Dormammu. M Talon attacks at the correct heights (To avoid chaotic flames) and a mixture of Down-H are your ways to get behind him. Is the player really content on throwing a flame carpet down and spamming Dark Holes and Purifications? Weapon X Prime. You beat all his super options. Also if you’re close enough, and he’s not doing too much you can command grab right over it, with room to land and set up some BnB situations.
I think the matchup is pretty even, but yeah the flame carpet can be annoying. Just get creative!
You can definitely cross him up in the corner with M mirage feint (qcb+M).
Also, Dormammu is pretty tall, so I’m pretty sure X-23 can instant overhead the guy with J.M as well. If you get him in the corner, I would say that’s a good thing, keep him in there and go to town.
I know that some of his specials, I think Purification and Liberation, one of them, I can’t remember have deadzones where they can’t touch you, I’ll hit the Dormammu thread and confirm this.
all slices and all feints lose to flame carpet.
