MvC3 Akuma / Gouki General Discussion Thread

anybody know what his assist might be?

probly a classic, come in and hado, shoryu, and tatsu most likely

Akuma looks like Ryu with more combo oppurtunities but without Joudan. So Im guessing this:

Ryu = Keepaway/Zoning. Probably has high priority normals

Akuma = Rushdown. Relies on Demon flip to mix-up.

Hoping his tatsu assist is still godlike.

I’m guessing the same as Ryu, maybe they’ll have him do an air Hado instead of a ground one.

im guessing its
a-Shoryuken
b-tatsumaki
y-demon flip:dive kick instantly activated

but thats what i hope they are

So much purple…it’s everywhere! :looney:

Wait… what that stage where he’s fighting Doom on some moon and Doom has no health bar? Mission mode, maybe?

^arcade mode
air tatsu has a new function
before mvc3 it would send them down in air combo
now he goes down with the opponent and opponent is in a juggle state

They pretty much did in SF4. Hopefully he’ll have it as a second level 3. If anyone deserves 2 it’s Akuma.

thats what some of us thought in ssf4
but instead we got a useless ultra

i hope tatsu can cancel into Tenma Gou Zankuu like in mvc2
its gonna some time getting used to see that animation instead of his spam version

OTG dive kicks ftw

a dive kick assist which otg’s would pretty Damm useful

but his assist are prob the same as ryu

Notice he didn’t do a normal hadouken in the video, or air hadouken.

Edit: NVM does against cosmic doom

I think it is silly to assume that he won’t have those trademark moves.

i hope all the akuma hater shut up now he fits perfectly with the purple flames and i like the skinny model and evil look

i need the blue GI / Grey hair color!

hmm maybe KZK is a 5 bar hyper

oh btw. we didnt see shaku in the video just noticed

he also shoots one in the Hulk combo air hado into srk :slight_smile:

was it just me or did SGS go through projectiles …

Kongo Kokuretsu Zan will never be a hyper combo/ultra/super for him
and i want a purple gi/orange skin/yellow hair alt!

jesus christ akuma looks pretty fun imo

hop kick floats them now and can be comboed into with demon flip wtf
shit blew my mind, then there was that hurricane kick combo he done.

Hype

Shun Goku Satsu looks especially deadly. An Akuma with 3 meters is an Akuma to be feared… unless the damage sucks.
