Capcom can be beastly by himself if you use his personal character assist properly but typically you see people spam fire all day so that’s on them. It’s not that you can’t get past his AA assist but it can be very difficult, I agree.
Psylocke is very useful outside of just Magneto/Storm but I guess she is typically seen as only assist also because it sets up easy combos for them but this can be done very easily with other characters like Jill, for example .
ban sim, hes stupid for low tier. I don’t even know what you guys were thinking when you let him in. Granted the players using him weren’t playing sim to his full potential but good lord, his runaway is unrivaled w\in low tier.
I think megaman deserves to be mentioned for a ban. if you played something like mega\ruby\psylock, there will only be 2-3 character who might stand a chance @ coming in. Otherwise, megaman is going to sit back all day and buster douglas that shit.
psy\cammy aren’t worth banning. Even as powerful as capcom is, he shouldn’t be banned either IMO. If mando starts to get out of hand, I can see a ban in place only to promote variety.
Possibly put a soft ban on how many coffins mummy can do if he gets hit off screen. He can literally drain the clock down like this as well as build some bar. If you don’t have capcom on your team or a character that can reach that height, which is like 2 or 3, you have to wait until he falls back down. If you have ken AA and the very last hit of it hits, mummy losses like under 10% life. He’s up there chilling for 10 seconds now and building some bar.
Capcom is vulnerable onscreen for a hell of a long time post-assist so there’s always going to be some way to fry him up. Imo not ban-worthy.
Coffins would be scarier if they could hit you on the return trajectory. AFAIK they are just empty hitboxes on the way back up. Still pretty tricky.
Iceman+assist should beat up on Buster patterns, no? who are your other 1-2 characters? Wolverines can go low and scoop through most Buster crap. Anybody who can Fly/Float/Teleport may be able to set something up vs MM. No idea where I stand on MM ish atm.
I’ve been agreeing with sim and MM for a long time now. MM is a problem for sure
stop knocking anakaris up there, and he won’t do the coffins :lovin: … LOL?
but seriously, IF there were a ban, what would be the limit? perhaps a time limit would be better anyway. because I could also throw out some curses, idle hands, snake snaps, supers, and then go back to coffins…
I don’t think we should ban anyone else unless they become a dominator in the league. If any character starts dominating the league to the point where the other low tiers in the league don’t stand a chance, we should then talk about bans.
Until then, I think the current formula will work well. We JUST got rid of cyclops after all, and this will obviously change the whole dynamic of the league. Lets see who does really well, who doesn’t, and who is “unbeatable” under our current low tier league rules.
[details=Spoiler]just trying to think of some guidelines, but how does this sound:
whatever determined amount of specials we decide (I was thinking at least 5 [so he could at least do 1 of each of his specials + 1 more…or just 5 coffins) + air dash + SUPERSxN
after he has met this req. he must fall to SJ height.
any hit that causes him back up there, even when if he hasn’t come fully down to SJ height resets it.
and then, there’s the thing about game end if it’s coming to win by time out. as many other players would use whatever mobility options they have to win in a the end game, and so to best use anakaris’ skills and not be forced to come down to be chipped, out prioritized/mixed up/hit by faster characters…I was thinking of something where after a certain amount of time left on clock (I just had a general base of 10 seconds) he should be able to stall as much up there as he wants. I don’t even know how long the listed guidelines I mentioned last on the clock, but my thoughts on this. if you knock him up there close to game end and he has barely enough to scrape by, I think he should be able to try.[/details]
yes but let us consider how often he wins the game descending with priority:smokin: he will be a huge challenge, but i at least have a decent idea of what i’m up against:xeye:
i think you’re talking about when anak is falling he generally has great priority, which is useful to bait magnetos into hopefully their death by additional mixup + tron.
but aside from that, it doesn’t win him the game. even when it hits…omega red will just threaten me with a coil wrap anyway and ruby definitely doesn’t seem to care about my descension priority either lol. she does as she pleases!
