[Newbie] Magneto Thread - Q & A

sj, addf, attack???
super jumping then dashing down + forward very quickly and attacking??
Just so simple?

Why does it called “triangle” ?? … never mind, just wondering…
initially i just though that is :
sj. addf (to the back of the EE), then do a overhead rh… cos it look like “triangle”.

Ok. Thanks for it and the combo; SS^SSSSSS/ (light kick, fp, rh whatever)
Actually, i am not very sure what is all the SSSSS mean… ^^'
Anyway, thanks for your explaination.

loofah, what’s funny, is that he understood my explaination better than yours.

edit:
it’s called triangle, because magneto, storm,… ironman, dhalsim, whoever… makes a triangular form with the jump

yeah i kno… wierd…

achoms razor (or however you spell it) the simplest explanation is often the right one :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks for both of your kinding response.

i understood it now, so the infinite is using the trijump too.
i am trying to learn it now.

TQ.


i think regular jump airdash down foward kick is more useful because the opponent wouldn’t see the instant flash effect as well as hear the noise :badboy:

play’in arcade wit mag!!

i need help playin on the arcade cuz my friend told me its just lik playin ps2 and i only play on the ps2 so i said ok and when i got on to play i got my ass handed to me i was mad cuz if i would hav play him on ps2 i would hav beat the shit out of him!!! :mad: :mad: so any way post trick of how to slide your fingers or something so i can play well on are arcade

Uh?

Practice.

i used slide for 2 years, but recently noticed using my thumb instead of slide seem to increase my execution percentage noticeabley, but thats beside the point hehe. finger slidings just doing an air dash like you usually would, and then quickly bringing your fingers over lk or hk depending on what you’re doing. i had to hook my middle finger around hk so i wouldnt nail it by mistake, and my friend can finger slide on a ps2 and dc controller just as good as arcade, so its just practice like everything else

lol hahahaha let me guess tri jump wont come out…

get DC, MVC2, joystick. sorry but marvel sucks on ps2.

sell ps2 version on ebay. it’ll pay for DC/MVC2. i don’t know why mvc2 so expensive on ps2 when it’s a pos out of all the marvel versions. some went for $64!!!

use thumb method when u wanna tri.lk,use slide when u wanna tri.hk easier to me though :rolleyes:

Tips for comboing jump-in hits with ground hits?

I’m aware of jump-ins like 2 lks, an hp or an hk, and an hp with hk, but any recommendations on how to get the 3rd hit (on the ground) to combo with any of these? The timing for the dashing is really hard for me.

do tri.jump lk or hk its faster cos its lower then normal jump height that will leave u ample time for u to dash in.and the best thing about tri.jump is u can do it repeatly quickly
to do tri.jump u must super jump[normal jump also applicable] and quickly press dash down/downforward and lk or hk together

Yeah, I tri-jump when I jump in. But I still can’t get the 3rd/4th hits to combo.

EDIT: Maybe I’ll try tj lk lp mk as a jump in…

you dont necessarily have to tri-jump faster, just do the commands a little later. or if you’re better at aiming attacks, aim for them kneecaps! haha. the lower you hit them, the closer you are to the ground and thus you land faster.

this is more of a personal problem…sorry to say but u prolly play on pad or same gay shit and u control better on that stupid d-padso its a personnal problem so go buy a dc/mvc2/mass stick or u can sit on ur ass and suck with the paddle u have :pleased:

I’m using tj. lk -> tj.hk pretty consistently, so I’ll think I’ll start using that.

Which is superior? XMvSF Mags or MvC2 Mags?

Due to lack of characters because of the shitty japanese MvC2, I can’t learn Magneto. Is there any major differences between him in MvC2 and XMvSF(saturn/ver 3.0)that would make learning him in XMvSF a complete waste of time?

I can already play him a bit(ariel rave, Hyper Grav xx MT etc.) but I need to learn tri jumps, wave dashing, rush downs and all things things like that. I’m just not sure how differently they play since I can’t select him in MvC2 to compare my self.

Would it be a good idea to do this?

it is, but mixing it up isn’t a bad thing :slight_smile:

Hi, trying to get my Mags down and actually tourney threatening, but I was wondering how to setup ROM from Psylocke AA assist. I’ve seen it done, but when I sj. lk lk it connects and all but my dash goes under them every time no matter how much I delay it. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!! (Oh, if it helps, I’m playing Mag/Psylocke/Cable)…
