MvC3: Felicia thread V2: For All your Broadway Catgirl Nun needs!

So basically what you’re saying is to keep your combos short and sweet with Felicia and take advantage of her mixup tools.

Did you notice any significant change to the recovery of Kitty Helper activation? Is it safer to just whip out like Devil Trigger or Sogenmmu?

c.L-c.M-b+H (2) xx Cat Spike M, b+H (2) qcf+H-M, L-M-b+H(2)-S->JC, j.M-H-S, land, M-S->SJC, sj.M-M-H-S, land, Toy Touch xx TK Cat Spike L XX Dancing Flash

Works in Vanilla.

c.L-c.M-b+H (2) xx Cat Spike M, b+H (2) qcf+H-M, L-M-b+H(2)-S->JC, j.M-H-S, land, M-S->SJC, sj.M-M-H-S, land, Toy Touch + Dante Jam Session xx TK Rolling Buckler Uppercut, land, Cat Spike H, land, Cat Spike L XX Dancing Flash

Also works in Vanilla.

The combo I originally posted was basically the 2nd combo (which I use as my staple) with the sjc and normal jump sections switched (to accommodate the reduced tech time after Toy Touch by doing it sooner in the combo) and using Air Delta Kick to cause bounce as opposed to Dante assist into Cat Spike H.

I’m by no means saying that it will work, but I currently use a variation that does work :slight_smile:

Kitty Helper’s total frames have been reduced, meaning activation is shorter. By how many frames exactly though I can’t recall reading anywhere yet.

Umm, no it doesn’t work. Even doing a simple LMH xx RBS > LMHS > sj.MMHS > Toy Touch won’t allow you more than one (maybe two if lucky) attacks after. The other combo doesn’t even make sense, you can’t get regular jump combos after an S so the “land MS” part doesn’t work.
Other problem is you can’t juggle properly after RBS > LMb+HS (regular H works fine) but that’s a minor issue.

From what Max said sounded like Kitty Helper was on the screen for a shorter period of time, hope I misinterpreted that :frowning:

Does Sand Splash ASSIST hit OTG? That would be super awesome.

I’m wondering if my Felicia/Shulkie/Dormammu team is still viable in UMVC3. I really want Felicia and Shulkie on the same team :frowning:

It was hard to gather exactly what he meant. I’m guessing it’s either:

  • Reduced startup and recovery frames on activation.

OR

  • The actual attack from the Kitty Helper has had it’s total frames reduced.

It does hit OTG, but you gotta use it early in a combo or else it will scale really damn hard.


2nd Combo, hopefully that helps it make sense :slight_smile:

Oops, just read my notation. I think I got lazy and copy/pasted while I was baked, because I don’t even know wtf I was typing there! The combo in the video is what I was trying to communicate :stuck_out_tongue:

Was playing around with the theory combo (the first one). Was able to do just s.L-M-b+H xx qcf+H-M, s.L-M-S->SJC and get full j.M-M-H-S after the Toy Touch following the aerial rave. Couldn’t get it to land with the Cat Spike M involved though, so it would probably be better to just launch after the normal jump as is normally the case now.

I guess we’ll find out soon enough.

BTW her alt looks pretty crap :frowning: Looks like one of her concept designs but God damn, could have done so much better.

Yeah I was disappointed to not see Nun Felicia, Black Cat Felicia or Dazzler Felicia. They could have gotten way more creative instead of doing a throwback to an obscure beat 'em up. It’s just ugly. No way I’ll purchase.

You guys need to play Battle Circuit. It’s amazing. Without a doubt, Capcom’s best beat em up.

This although also gives her a green alt, so it definitely serves a purpose. I would have pissed at a nun alt, would have been as lazy as HK’s alt.

Anyone got a clear pic of Felicia’s alt? I’ve seen it but the pic is blurry.

Damn near reminds me of Cheetara.

Whaaaat?! Why did they take away all her combo potential? Now Felicia constantly has to go for resets while most of the other characters get easy death combos? This is bullshit.

So How good is her air delta kick now?

Will I be able to do easy dive kick relauches now?

Nobody seems to really be talking about it is it as great as im hoping it will be?

Please tell me you can do air Delta Kick > OTG ghetto beatdown (level 3).

Yes you can. They transferred all of her combo potential into Air Delta Kick combos and use Sand Splash OTGS better for resets.

You can actually use Sand Splash OTG into Dancing Flash, so don’t worry about her combo potential being ruined or anything like that.

Thats awesome… Now I cant wait for Tuesday!

Ill have to get used to using Sand Splash… I genneraly ignore charge moves but now it seems It would be in my greater benefit to learn to use them correctly…

Can I charge it in the air?

Even in vanilla, Sand Splash is an amazing move and if you’re not using it you’re ignoring a lot of Felicia’s potential. I use it all the time and it almost always connects. It’s great for catching assists, nailing attackers with air to ground attacks (dive kicks, Akuma tossing fireballs) destroying projectiles, especially Flame Carpet, and against people who love to dash and attempt to sneak in jabs. So long as you have meter, super cancel into Dancing Flash and go to town!

The move got buffed so that it causes more hits and deals more damage in Ultimate, which I’m really looking forward to. Sand in yo face!

You can charge in the air, but make sure you do it after pressing S in the air because if you hold back, you get a TAC instead of a charge lol. Think of it like Hulk’s Gamma Wave charging after an air series.

Just got back from a friends house who got the game early and here’s what I found.

-Air Delta Kick seems to start up slightly slower compared to the ground version but interestingly I was able to use it as a runaway tactic for when people are in X-Factor or if time was running out.

-Her XF3 L.Cat Spike infinite is still in the game! I’m so happy I still have a scary anchor character!

-Her Rolling Buckler as an assist no longer causes a soft knockdown, even if it hits first. Means you’ll have less time to hit-confirm off of it. This also applies to her Crossover Counter as well which may kill her ability to combo off of it. This seems to be a universal nerf to most of the assists in the game but I feel it was really unnessesary to do this to Felicia.

This is gonna be so good! <3
