Hey, I’m trying to get into Marvel, but I’ve literally had about a few hours of practice just working on combos. So yeah, I pretty much still have no idea how to play the game or some of the nuances.
I’m reading up on the stickies and any other helpful info, but there is one thing that I’m wondering. How would I practice using assists? I mean yeah, it’s one thing to use assists leading or following up combos in training mode, but as far as incorporating them in real matches, set ups, keeping people away (assuming I have an assist like CapCom), etc.
Sometimes even in training mode I forget to use assists simply because I’m not used to using them. Is it just gonna take real matches to do that or is there a method I can do to practice this?
you either wanna start with sent (switch to drones, strider works off of them) or strider.
it really just depends on how comfortable you are with your sentinel, if you’re starting with sentinel you can use sent/doom to get some stomp patterns and build meter, because you want to do damage but sents purpose in this position is to build as much meter as possible to dhc into strider orbs then strider can do his thing. a drawback is you can lose your strider much easier via snapout unblock or sent getting killed into unblock. starting strider is still the best option though because you get. strider doom off the bat, then sent doom which is pretty sketchy but loses to most aa’s and finally doom runaway if it comes down to it
i think its combofiend’s other team. i THINK its mag/im/sentinel but sent is switch to drones.
Alright total scrub question here and it’s been the main problem with my Sent
How the hell do you aim his RP?
When I’m in the air and I wanna punch up it goes straight an I’m not sure exactly how to do it.
Do I do Tiger knee motion or what?
Oh and also…
For Striders ourbouros setups in the long run is it better to teleport above or behind them?
Mostly looking for opinions as well as the most safest way on this one.
I know you can counter sent 's RP with cyke’s GS. normally u can GS into optic blast super with the right timing, but is that an option on sent’s extended RP, or will cyke just hit the RP, knocking sent out of the optic blast super allowing him to block and possible counter, or will the whole combo still work? just unsure. thanks in advance
I’ve saw many a combo in combo videos where an assist is called in during an aerial rave, for some reason during an aerial rave my assist does not come out.
I’m playing on the PS2 version if this makes any difference.
This is merely a standard combo video which appeared near the top of the list of youtube videos because I wanted to find these assists during aerial raves.
Here’s just one combo video that contains them, I’ve not even watched them all yet and the video is still running but as soon as I saw it I copied it.
depending on the character you could press DF, but 1: that would result in a downwards diagonal airdash, and 2: not all characters can airdash in multiple directions (chun,tron,omega red, etc.)
you dont have to sj. either, you can airdash off of nj as well.
you either sj.(or nj.),
(for a reg AD. hold fwd),
tap PP…
or you can simply double tap fwd (or whatever else direction), whilst in the air…
When in super jump, press hk, then press pp and assist.
Characters who have those normals that make them drift attack down like Iron Man, War Machine, Wolverines, Dhalsim get put in normal jump mode so assists work.
i am sorry if this was asked before but, how long does it take for you guys to get used to air dashing, or using the sticks in general? i recently want to drop cable commando in favor of having more options for magneto and storm teams. this transfer is very hard and made me forget the basics. all while not having any strategy in the first place. i would like to know from the more experienced people if possible is how you come up with your strategies or ideas. since im relatively new to marvel overall i play with no idea in my mind on what to do, i call assist when the opponent gets any kind of closeness to me. and i generally find it hard and frustrating and want to quit at times but i dont. so sorry about these stupid questions you probably heard millions of times but i appreciate any help and hope i can become a better player.
Thank you.
hey idk if this has been posted before (search didnt work for me :sad:) but i’ve seen match vids of where for ex. guy1 is using cable and he beats guy2’s character and cable is going to jump in next, then guy1 is going to go for the common gaurd break of shot with the gun and then AHVB, but guy2 stops it by doing one as well. ive been trying to pull this off but can’t seem to get it to work and end up getting AHVB. anybody know if its all about timing it right or if ur suppose to push block? idk im lost
