MvC3: You are Defeated: The Magneto Combo Thread

[maxkwondo]

Thanks a lot for the input. I’ll give it a try next time I get a chance to play. I can do the H adf M H to fly cancel part fine, I think the real problem is not hitting the next attack (whatever it is) fast enough. I’m still being careful with my fly cancels because I sometimes get stupid team air combo instead hahaha. But I appreciate the advice, and hopefully I’ll be able to develop my Magneto some more.

[Spiegelmann]

I think we should post a Q and A on the first post as well to deteriorate questions coming up?

That being said, I have a question

After you input FLY is it possible to link to L or M FIRST before hitting the H to make it easier for some of us noobs trying to learn these loops?

EDIT: **For those of you trying to just get the hang of the Magneto Fly Loop this is a WONDERFUL way to learn it.

Input: S-jump H-airD-m-h-fly-L-H-air dash-H in the corner to do it. When you start getting comfortable with how the rhythm feels, just take it outside of the corner. Also, you can get rid of the L once you have a feel for it if you want. I choose to keep the L there to make sure I connect after the fly. I find combos are always easiest to learn in the corner due to the lesser knock back. double edit: I just tested this outside of the corner and it also works. In fact, I think its a much more reliable way to constantly land the combo. It comes out 4 frames faster than air M or H and since it is a loop you can get pretty solid damage regardless. IMO, this is a great route to take because it ensures you land it consistently. Dropping combos= bad news bears.

Also, for pad players: Map one of the triggers to be two buttons (LM, MH, LH) so you just input two button presses. It’s not that hard to do this on pad once you get a feel for it, incase some of you play on pad like me.

**So, the combo I am doing is:

CRL-CRM-CRH-S-H-air dash-M-H-fly-L-H-Fly-H-Repeat to do S to assist pressure, lvl 3 hyper or whatever.

If you spend like a good hour in the training room, you’ll eventually get it. Easily one of the games hardest bnbs to learn next to Vipers and probably Dooms. (I’m not a Doom player but his stuff looks hard.)

Wow thanks so much for this. I’m finally starting to get the hang of this thanks to the L attack. Now the only thing I need to finish getting down is the timing between my air dashes and air H’s.

That’s the hardest part for me. I end up mashing A and C to try and get dash C as quickly as I can.

I wonder if you can sort of plink C and dash with A and B so it’s just one motion…

+:h: ~ :l::df: allows you to do it almost instantly.

I see now dude. I was doin like this before: :l:+:h: ~ :l:. Shit is so much easier now lol thanks man.

I’m new to this game and I have sparked interested in Magneto. Could someone list for me the easiest Magneto bnbs/combos they can think of?

[FROG55JON]

you can unfly in flight combos if you want to go for hyper gravity in the corner just unfly drop H, Stand H, Light hyper gravity into magnetic tempest. or you can go for shock-wave mid-screen rather that otg you get more hits

[theDUKE]

I’d like to know more about this “ShadyK loop” if you guys could explain it a bit.

From what I see it started with the same Magneto ROM in the corner for 1 or 2 reps then mag would do SJ backwards, J.C, ADDF, Land, s.C, L.Hyper Grav, repeat.

From what I understand it builds more meter and does more damage than just repeating the Fierce Fly (ROM) Loop.

2nd for explaining it.

I’ve already figured out that after the first hyper grav I have to SJ back asap so the opponent will float towards me in the air.
I manage to hit the jc s.C but the l hyper grav always whiffs. dunno what I’m doing wrong.

If you are doing the ROM in the corner and are able to combo into s.H xx L Hyper Grav…[Immediately SJ upback, ADDF > j.H, land, s.H xx L Hyper Grav] repeat.

[Yar1n]

Is it from ROM only?

I thought I can do any combo into hyper grav and then go for it.

Just did the magneto Rom for the first time. I’m feel so behind :wasted:…

Congrats, been working at it for the last three days.:annoy:

Trying to do rom inifnite, any tips on getting super jumps to come out consistently? the rest of it seems easy outside of that

let the stick go to neutral as soon as you do addf

I’m still having a lot of trouble with mvc3 rom, and i find that strange because I’m very strong with execution.

I have spent a lot of time switching characters so i haven’t spent a lot of time on it, I’m using this button lay out

A, C, A1
B, S, A2

I find it akward to addf with A+B so I’ve been doing it with only A+C for dash and then C again for the combo.

I’ve only gotten a few reps down and it isn’t consistent, but with all these posts of people saying they are making progress I’d figure i’d ask for some help.

[Detrimantix]

Try super jumping straight up, it’s not necessary to go up+back on most of the cast, might make it easier for you. Just keep practicing, it took me awhile.

Speaking of the Rom (H Loop) I can get it consistently on most of the cast up to like 20 hits, but the smaller characters like Wolv or Ammy seem to be a bit trickier, is there an easier variation I don’t know about or is it better to just go for something else on the vertically impaired?

[Dedemaru]

Anyone? Easiest Mag combos?

Also, Magneto (Electromagnetic Disruptor)/Thor (Mighty Smash)/Dormammu (Black Hole)

Does that seem like a legit team? Am I missing something that a different assist could provide?

[rogueyoshi]

snip

for the double tap method, you have to hit C really fast after you hit dash. personally, i would get down the A+B~C method though. its done like a reverse sf4 kara grab

snip

you pretty much have to eye it. pay attention to their current height and do your j.Cs accordingly

snip

i think the fly combo and BCB loop are both good starts

[Hedgeshot]

So a page back, I posted [media=youtube]xa6I9kH1VJk"[/media], which carries midscreen to corner, no assist, one meter and does 795k. I haven’t spent much time on the ROM loop (ie can’t do it yet!) and am curious how its damage/meter compares. If you do a ROM loop starting with jS, 2H and ending with the Hyper Grav loop into Tempest, what is the damage done and meter gained?

[GodOfG_mblers]

Dmg 770-800K, meter 2 stocks

Edit: 794,6K

Suppose I’ll put some time in on the Rom then because it covers a fair amount more screen and gets better meter.
