Sentinel top 5 finally !! Someone is honest about it !
… Its about time godamnit.
Also I like that you didn’t mention Doom, who always do piss bad and dies. Top tier assist, mid tier character
Fixed. Everyone wants to discuss characters viability based on potential ? Doom has a lot of potential. Dude can cancel any normal he does with a dash. Doom isnt mid tier at all.
I must be bad because I’ve been hearing about how he can cancel normals into dashes since day 1 yet I still don’t see how that’s any good or anyone attempting to put it to use.
so because people always have him as an anchor with no assist to back him up that makes him a bad character?
thats stupid. its like tiering Tron based on her play solely as a anchor but people are still doing that so maybe im expecting to much. play a Doom on point with a solid assist(taskmaster is great with doom) backing him up…good luck
If you speak about him overall he is obviously way higher. If you speak about him on point… He is hard to hit confirm. And to land an hit with him is especially difficult.
His rushdown keeps him from better than high-mid. Still mid though.
Doom’s short cancels into itself. He can do 2L 2L 2H S or 2L 2L S.
His movement is awkward, not necessarily bad, him getting a hit isn’t hard when he has assist filling the screen and the ability to get behind an opponent in the corner like Zero. Getting a hit alone is a chore for a majority of the cast.
And then’s Doom damage is stupid and builds stupid meter. It’s comparable to Tasky levels of stupid. Hit 1mil off a backthrow in the corner needing 1 assist + 3 bars when the combo you do builds 2+ meters. Who can do that off a throw? The same combo without the throw is like 1.2-1.3 mil I think.
Breaking loops to go for air throw into more loops is butter.
I know Doom is an hard hitter, builds good meter, and has good health (1.000.000). The problem is, basically, He doesn’t have that many chance to land an hit against for example Magneto (850.000 life point). So all in all, Magnus durability is higher because he has so much opportunities compared to him that 150.000 more life point means nothing.
again it seems like your comparing Doom without assist vs Magneto with assist with assist doom can superjump photon shot then foot dive as a free way in (unless magneto wants to take a risk and do a random shockwave) and Doom can kill Maggy with 1 meter while Mags needs a least 3 i think its 5-5 but yes Mags is still overall better obviously
Oh wait you said mid. Lol I thought I saw you say low. My bad.
Yeah, top tier assist, mid or mid+ on the field. Potential to move up once people get better adjusted to his nuances and show off how good he is outside of 3rd slot.
Random question because i’m wondering alot of things since Daigo and Tokido will compete in MVC 3 : Your opinion on Hulk ? Deadpool ?
Personally i think Hulk is so scary he is on the same tier as Doom. People that say just block his H … it’s not as easy.
Deadpool is a bit slept on, probably top 15 on point, but i’m not sure hence i ask to you about them, because these characters are never agreed upon.
For me, Haggar belongs to Low tier, but Hulk is far more potent, so … idk really.
Ofc these two characters should be on point.
Doom will never be less than mid. You are right here. He is probably one of the sole character with Modok / C Viper (two low tier imo) that can rank higher with time.
I’d say Doom has big problems against characters that spend most of their time in the air.He cant convert a random jumping move into damage.Foot dive is his best air to air combo starter but it is easily defended against.
Other than that, yeah once people figure out his movement options he’ll be better for sure.
I will wait to see a Viper besides Marlin Pie’s do something before I make a judgement on her. Not a big fan of just going by “potential”. The Chicago Cubs always have potential coming into the season and never achieve shit.
Watch matches of Ric0 if you want to see an actual Doom, played on point with his assists it’s very clean and he often gets to kill people off of mix up which is decently fast and when done right negates pushblock.
ROFLMAO @ your sig really.
Same lol at “Sick Duck” nickname. The guy must be cool with such a nickname tbh.
The closest I’ve seen to what you’re describing was a Japanese player running Trish/C. Viper/Iron Man (IMO I think Sentinel would have worked on this team in place of Iron Man). It basically went combo with Trish, throw out Round Harvest before/as opponent is waking up and tag in C. Viper, call assist and start charging Focus Attack for unblockable. That right thar is a dead character for 1-2 meter. Obviously this isn’t a stable as a DHC trick team but the damage is easily comparable to the best that those teams are able to pull off.
Doom will be S tier once people get their heads out of their asses and stop using him as just an assist character and start actually playing him.
Bet it.
If anything, you could say the same with Sentinel…to be honest. I never seen too many pro uses Sent on a point, or 2nd…ever.
Just hit up youtube and can’t find anything
doom should not be even debated on being mid tier. Like it was already pointed out, doom have good damage. A corner carry combo from mid screen, a extended corner combo that can kill with lv3 on ANYBODY (im positive), his mix up game is really good once the person playing him gets comfortable with his movements, plus his level 3 alone should make him the best…I mean HE GOT YOU IN A BLENDER!
I actually do not agree that X-23 being above C tier. She alone is terrible, with an assist she becomes a bit better. Now if your talking about a DHC team then that is she becomes B tier. She don’t have lots of ways to get in on good zoners, ones that got anti-air such as mags shockwave, or doom’s proton array on the ground. She don’t have any moves that have invulnerability other then her weapon X prime, such is pretty slow from full screen unless your opponent fuck up real bad. She have feints to close the distance in mid screen distance but she can be poked out of it unless it is from the the start up. Once she lands, she got a bit of recovery. That can just be one combo in to a dead X-23. This makes me so sad, cause she is such a good character to play as.
@mr. X Check around hadocon or may 4th Starbase stream (not sure on the starbase one cause it could be April 27)
