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

I think after most if not all situations where M Cat Spike or Delta Kick are blocked you’ll be within range for M Hellcat.

Loving Doctor Strange/Hawkeye paired up with Felicia right now. Calling out Eye of Agamotto assist after an air combo is great. I can Sandsplash and the assist holds them there so I can easily connect Dancing Flash, or just leave the assist out and dash back because the opponent almost always rolls away from it. If they decide to just roll back/wakeup and block they take the chip and the mixup. And Hawkeye is just Hawkeye, so he’s damn amazing.

Hey Everyone. I’m back on the Felicia bandwagon since ult. made her all kinds of gdlk and I’ve got a quick question. Right now I’m using her sand splash assist and I’m having some issues with it crossing up randomly in the corner. I’ve tried varying the timing on the call and I haven’t found any specific reasoning to it. Anyone else have trouble with this or have tips on avoiding it?

P.S.: What’s up, 645. (This is BDP_Ash from HSV.) Next time you guys head over for RCR we need to run those casuals. Hopefully, my Felicia team will be up to snuff by then.

I just walk/dash backward a little bit before calling the assist.

Yeah I have the same issues with the assist, weird, I try walking back but doesn’t always work :frowning:

YEA! The same thing happens to me. I noticed it happens when I’m point blank with the opponent while he’s in knockdown. Walking back helps it work more often, but it’s not guaranteed. Serious problem that has cost me, and probably many other, important matches.

Time to write a letter to Capcom. 0|

Somehow I’ve gotten this far in life without knowing that Cat Spike H is an overhead. Or maybe I knew but forgot.

Too bad it seems to whiff on a lot of crouching characters.

Works great against Sentinel :wink:

Thanks to the auto-mashing card, I now know that the maximum number of hits on Please Help Me is 82.

Anyone ever explain why the ADK hits and misses on certain happy birthdays? It has all to do with mass/body priority in the happy birthday. For instance, if Wesker is on point, and you happy birthday Wesker and Wolverine, ADK WILL WORK. Same with Sentinel and Iron Man, or Sentinel and Akuma. If you do the reverse, where the point is the smaller character, ADK WILL NOT WORK. Must be a bug where the assists don’t trigger the 2nd ADK hit for some reason, since even if you’re comboing just the assist, you don’t get ADKs on them. Same reason that Sand Splash OTGs only one character in a happy birthday situation as well. If you can realize who’s body is the fatter of the two mid combo, you can make the decision to ADK or jS on the moment.

From what I’ve heard, when you are doing a Happy Birthday, assist characters will not be affected by ground bounces or OTGs, but then again, That’s never the case for my Dante HBs.

Hi! I’m just beginning this game (from a Brawl background, eek!) and I have a few questions, if you don’t mind. Sorry if they’re really obvious (they probably are) or if these are just the wrong questions that a beginner should be asking (if they are, then what are the right ones?).

What is Felicia’s best approach?

And if you (as Felicia) block a move, what is Felicia’s best way to punish it, if you have sufficient frame advantage? (Maybe depends on distance and the degree of frame advantage?)

Thank you very much! :slight_smile: (And again, many apologies.)

IMO, Felica’s best approaches are easily wavedashing and ADK. Despite the egregious priority and positivity of ADK, however, it can be beaten out by some moves like Morrigan’s shell kick. Still, Felicia is a melee fighter. Wavedashing alone is tough and ADK spam can get obvious. Always remember to back her up with a good assist that can undoubtedly control space well.

It really depends on what is blocked.

b+H I typically use to punish moves such as Sentinel S or whiffed attacks in general due to the fast start-up and high damage combos she can begin off of it.

There are also standing and crouching :a: which are 4f and 5f respectively.

As already said, her best ways of getting in are via wavedashing and (A)DKs. Cat Spikes can be used to close that final gap, but I personally find them more useful when used in strings at break points where she can enforce a mix-up. The 3D Run, while fun, gets punished fairly hard at the end, but it allows her to have obnoxious left/right cross-ups with assists. She’s going to get push blocked a lot also, so delayed crouching A’s are great for catching people mashing it.

I was trying out Felicia (Buckler)/Tron (Bonne Strike)/Arthur (Dagger Toss)

What do you guys think of this? I want to keep these characters and preferably keep Felicia on point but do you think I should switch my assists up?

I don’t know too much about Tron or Arthur, but the assist for Felicia is probably the best pick. Sand Splash is really only for combo extending like most other OTGs in this game.Since Tron and Arthur both can OTG themselves, then the problem has already been solved.

Slide assist also allows a team to have one of the few invincible cross-over counters in the game.

Quick update: School is coming up, and my recording buddy is in Seattle right now. DELAYS. DELAYS EVERYWHERE.

So what X-Factor stuff do you guys do, I stick to the infinite, I love the way it looks, great damage and the salt is always fun, but sometimes I feel like I’m wasting time. Is it worth it to use the infinite?

Also I’m curious what kind of tricks the community use Kitty Helper and EX Charge for, they seem underrated.

You can cancel Felicia’s Heavy Attacks into EX Charge to make them safe or for kara command grabs, though most of the time you’d usually get advanced guarded in which case Delta Kick M comes into play. Personally, if I’m feeling confident, I’ll use Kitty Helper, start doing EX Charge, and mash L so Mini-Gief keeps harassing the opponent while I gain meter. This is a bad idea as most people will just dash right over to you, but you’d be surprised how many people just sit there and take the chip damage online lol. If I wanna play smart I use Kitty Helper + Assists to make Felicia’s already tricky corner pressure and mixups even more godlike. Or just pop XF2-3, summon Kitty Helper and chip the opponent to death.
