Hi there i have to disagree with you guys in some chars, even if the post are from 2008 i find this game has pretty good balance however im not a pro of this game so i might be wrong, in fact thats why im here. whateva I find not that hard to defend against wolvie + berserker rage players i think its waaaay easier than mvc because wolvie cant combo his stomp, that makes him so vulnerable when berserker raging cause player can only stick to ground, control wolvie on air in berserker rage is hard, so its not that hard to time him and air f punch him, ive did it many times even with gief.
Omega red players are a pain in the ass but i find that players that use him sucks vs mech gief and hulk or blackheart and mephisto teams.
Cyclops is a pretty good annoying char too, i played with dudes like killa gambit or kenn234 and they know a pretty good semi inf combo.
Chun li is one of my favorites and i think she deserves to be in top tier, she is like a lighter version of mvc chun li, her air dash makes her so annoying for players plus she has a semi infinite that is easy to pull, almost like mvc wolvie infinite, also i saw killer gambit did a pretty cool combo with her that takes almost 50% life and with a good assist she can do it pretty good.
I think dan should be in mid tiers, if you know how to play him he can compete vs other mid- high tiers his throws are just so sick when i play him i mainly use throw game, combo to super are easy and do awesome damage, his kicks are sick too, one thing that no one sees is his otoko michi just rules, just like morrigan eternal slumber people think that 3 meter supers are garbage but since you almost never use a super with dan you have those 3 bars always, easy you can knock down a char with low life and do dans otoko michi, since its unblocble and doesnt takes ages like akuma shun goku satsu it can end matches with very low risk, obviously its just a move to end battles and can be used in few situations just like eternal slumber but i think people just dont dig some moves when they have pretty good ptencial, im not saying dan is a top tier but he can be a serious deal if you know how to play him.
Mephisto+ blackheart teams are a pretty annoying team too, players that use them are so annoying they make you go defense almost 90% and with air judment day and meter building with demons coming and coming they can chip you to death, if they dont kill you match always goes to time over and thats just so annoying.
i find spidy is a ligther version too of mvc spidy, i agree sakura has the worst moves, but she have 2 or 3 decent options, plus she has a good range, dhalshim a cool dude in this game just like in xmvsf he annoys the hell with his pressure and his air throw + super makes ALOT of damage.
Gief plays the same as mvc gief, his airs are annoying plus he has a corner headbutt inf that looks so cool, cap its not that good his jab hits like a cheerleader in this game, not even useful to do the jab combo, does almost the same damage the magic series combo, but his cartwheel just rocks and stars and stripes combo do good damage.
Shuma gorath is a greath chars aswell, his double is his best attack, does a lot of damage and has invincible frames like shoryuken, plus he or she?? can drain life too, good moves, ken, ryu, akuma are good mid tiers akuma assist sets good combos, shadow well he sucks and bison is a good char too nice throws and can super combo.
I like to know why not a lot people play this game on ggpo i mean i know why people play mvc but why almost nobody play this except for players like jlw, juno, killer gambit etc ?? i find this game is the least broken of the three, almost no infinite in this game, but i might be wrong with my perceptions, i would like to know why this game is not so popular?
