Actually I heard that Daigo was riding shotgun with Phoenix in a chariot made out of Hsien-Kos, Captain Americas and Arthurs bones and that it was being flown into war by a fleet of mango Sentinels.
Watch WNF more. You see that a lot as it can catch people off guard. About the only thing I’ve seen that IMO rivals that for clever tricks is She-Hulk X-Factor cancelling out of Dark Phoenix transformation blockstun and hitting her with anti-air hyper.
Also on a more serious note what really killed Justin IMO was the sheer number of overheads that Tokido’s Phoenix hit him with. Also RE: Phoenix rushdown vs. Wolverine rushdown I would still say that the latter is scarier as whether it’s X-factor assisted or just regular assisted his throw game is so much scarier than hers.
Taskmaster is so good. How can people not like him? Been playing him since day one, still got rage messages from people saying “AMG WTF IS THAT CRAP!”.
Seriously, throwing up your hands and crying foul after getting beaten at your own game is 3rd grade stuff. It’s time to grow up and get back to the training room. People have been downplaying Phoenix for the last month or so and it just came back around.
If Justin & Friends do start to use Phoenix, I will laugh my a** off. I will await of what will happen until SMvC3 comes or DLC that comes with a patch, hopefully
This game’s mechanics are just making it worse as we go on, I really thought that if you put in work in this game you will get rewarded (not as in combos).
Its seems like it to me if you want to win pick two of your favorite characters & Phoenix/Wolverine
The main problem is a combination of characters plus XF that makes the game thoughtless. If they tone down certain characters plus the XF system the game will be fine.
Guess what? Capcom will NOT patch MvC3 to tone down those bullshits. Instead, they will release Super MvC3 for 49.99 so people will ditch this game and buy the new one ASAP, only to find it has even more bullshits. Then Super MvC3 Ultimate edition will be announced.
The momentum shifts in CEO finals involved x factor level 1. How do you tone down the lowest version of x factor? Or should the game evolve to prevent one touch kills?
People just really don’t get it. Its not just the fact Phoenix can go Dark Phoenix, its that it changes your whole mentality. Yeah Justin died to Tokido’s Wolverine but thing is even if Justin had gotten past Wolverine he still has to contend with both Sentinel then Phoenix.
The mentality that comes when facing a Phoenix player or someone who has Phoenix on their team is that its fighting on two fronts. Not only are you worried about Phoenix getting 5 bars and having X-Factor after killing her team, its that even if you just focused solely on Phoenix, her other 2 characters are pretty free to do what they want with you. Which is pretty much what happened during the 2nd set of the Grand Finals of CEO. Justin focused on getting Phoenix but got so ahead of himself that Tokido’s Wolverine got the first grab and XF’d to kill Justin’s Wolverine and the tempo completely was in Tokido’s favor. From then it was an uphill battle with everything against Justin and everyone was pulling for him to clutch it out. Sadly it didn’t happen and even Yipes was salty as was James Chen. It was an exciting Grand Finals to watch especially to watch Justin reset the bracket on Tokido after coming through Loser’s Finals with such a narrow come from behind victory over Chris G.
CEO was everything that people made it to be as far as hype.
I’m sad that America got beat at AE and MvC3 but I don’t deny that it was some extremely exciting finishes.
It just comes to serve notice that America needs to step it up and overcome to onslaught of the Japanese at AE and refine techniques and strategies against all comers in MvC3. I hope the results of CEO and Revelations will only strengthen the top players of America and their resolve to win and we’ll see some more exciting matches to come.
Well right now the one character that for sure makes XF1 retarded is Wolverine. His power level is way too high for how fast he is and his health pool. All they really need to do is tone down the damage Wolverine can do in general by nerfing the damage on his normals and he will instantly be only as stupid as everyone else in XF1 and not a cut above the rest brokenness.
Wolverine getting the first grab is not really something you can control. Throws are one frame in this game and Wolverine is among the fastest characters in the game. Sometimes you’re just going to get grabbed first. The problem is XF1 ensure Wolverine can turn a random grab into a death combo which is absurd and needs to be dealt with.
