Throw shit at them, then instant j.A until you hit.
How else do you plan on getting in for combos? I find that airdash j.s is the fastest and most reliable way in, and its not too bad to hitconfirm off of. Jump m has too wonky of a hitbox and jump a has nowhere near enough range to be reliable.
yeah, Jump S is pretty good for starting combos. Comes out faster than J. H too.
omg itās Omegablackmage. I know you =p
And j.E is a great attack yeah. How are you gonna hate on it o.o Itās got great range and lasts for awhile so you can fall with it from pretty high and still land. With a good assist itās guaranteed too (Ammy cold star assist is a great way to lead into it)
I canāt for the life of me figure out modokās combos. i donāt know which normals cancel into others.
i get rushed down something fierce when i play this guy⦠its humiliating. How do you guys keep people off and push offense?
Whats the most amount of cubes someones got off a midscreen combo? Not including throws and no starting midscreen and ending up in the corner.
As a general tip, at the start of the round, abusing Modokās ability to fly higher than the enemy can jump and still call assists is gold
I use haggar to push them back. I think itās essential for any Modok team to have a āgtfomā assist. Once you can get them off of you, start barrier, analyze cubes and psionic blasts to keep them away and to start the zoning.
I am so bad with Modok, I get rushed down fo freeeeee.
I was originally playing Modok/Akuma/Shulk, but I really really need an assist that gets people off of me right now to do anything.
So, I went to Modok/Sent/Tron. Tronās fire is really good, but I donāt like using Sent. I love the character, but he is too crazy right now and I want to win with Modok, not him. lol, I couldnāt even get rushed down with Sent on point because you can combo into his c.m if they get caught by Tronās assist.
Things I want to work on:
-Utilize head attack more. I feel like this is some holy grail of mobility if harnessed correctly with Modokās awesome flight.
-Dealing with super jumps. Once I get my barrier/goop/cube obstacle course going, people just s.j over and land behind me or in between me and my aegis.
So, any tips, Modokers?
Personally I like to actually back myself into a corner with him, I know itās probably a terrible idea, but I run Modok/Sent/Haggar, I could not even imagine using Modok without Haggarās double lariat. But if you are in the corner and they super jump, if you use his standing light it will hit them if they try to jump behind you and push them forward, as well as a well timed psi blast which will push them. I sit in the corner and when they jump I bring haggar out so they land right on his lariat, then do L analyze cube because they tend to try to roll towards Modok, then psi blast them back, seems to be working fairly well.
Just picked up the Brady Games strat guide and alot of the info there is extremely useful. For example, looking at the data, MODOKās hyper psionic blast has the most durability points of any projectile or beam hyper, meaning that if you activate it in response to someone else activating their projectile hyper, you WILL beat it out. This makes MODOKās zoning game even BETTER, since he doesnāt have to worry about random projectile supers beating out his barrier. I was activating it during the cinematic for Danteās Million Dollars and I won every single time.
The only exceptions to this are hypers where multiple projectiles are shot that arenāt in direct line of the beam (and therefore wonāt be negated): Sentinel Force (eff him!), Trishās, I believe Task Masterās arrow shot and any others that go under his beam.
If anyone wants to start a thread for MODOK frame data, Iāll post up what I can; I just canāt start it myself since I may not be able to maintain it on a regular basis.
[edit]
Oh yes, and according to the data, itāll even beat out Zeroās level 3 sword slash, lol (sword slash has 100 high priority durability points whereas HPB has 22 frames x 5 high priority durability points⦠or 110 points total)
This guy is gonna be mid-tier at best.
So much for the āOMG troll characther lololololā.
he IS a troll character. heās one of the most obnoxious characters to play against.
that doesnāt mean he cant be mid tier though. look at Dan in SSF4
i invented some new modok technology for massive damage

Haha, look at those little legs go! Thatās a slap in the face if Iāve ever seen one.
Thread should be called M.O.D.O.T. Mental Organism Designed Only for TROLLING
And does the barrier really block hyper projectiles? Iāve tried it and I couldāve sworn it been broken by them each time. I may be wrong though. However I main this guy for the sole purpose for trolling lol.
Something peeps might not know about; his light air psionic blaster does knock down, and since it has relatively short recovery, you can connect a j.A or downward airdash + j.C/j.E in the corner off of it, leading to more or a relaunch.
Experimenting still.
yes i agree. please change the orgasm harder part, its not even funnyā¦
Barrier doesnāt block hyper projectiles at all.
