been messing with haggars TAC. can someone explain why shuma doesn’t come in at all? i know it’s caused by him being assisted but i don’t know why or how i can further abuse it. i also know the combo itself as far as haggar goes is very sloppy. i can get more damage w/o the TAC.
Won a paid trip to Evo mostly thanks to the mayor and the labwork I’ve put with him! You can see my t8 matches at http://es.twitch.tv/vgmtec/b/306945830 (from 18:00 onwards) and http://es.twitch.tv/vgmtec/b/306953228 (until 50:00). Please review and comment! I know I dropped combos in certain situations, but the tension from having a $2000 plane ticket on the line is not easy to ignore!
lol @ the end “oh my fuckin god!” It was the only lingo I understood in the whole video. Crazy good TOD combos. Seein all this Haggar tech lately is makin me wanna play him. The ONLY gripe I have with your team is, that all the assist you use are pretty much just used for combo extenders. I’m not a fan of that kinda because I’m a old school MvC2 player and all the assist I use are ones to cover me / get in. Different playstyles I guess but other than that nice stuff.
Well, I actually use Gamma Wave as a tool to get in… but in a different kind of way. I can TOD from lots of situations, including them coming at me (anti-air lariat), so I don’t need an assist to cover me or get in, these chars can protect themselves very well. I use GW as a deterrent against bothersome assists (Doom, for example), to prevent them from keeping me at distance from the point char.
I went to Shadowloo Showdown last weekend (I came from New Zealand). I main Viscant’s old team (Wesker/Haggar/Phoenix) and played it in all my important matches. I got some money matches in with the other international players who went over and outside of all the fails, I don’t think I did too bad. They were all first to 4 and I took at least 2 games every match. Clearly Haggar isn’t the main focus on the team, but people did enjoy watching my Haggar and some of the pros did praise mine (though I’d made so many different setups and OSes which I didn’t even pull out in these matches either cause of nerves or I just wasn’t thinking at the time). I always make sure I can play all the characters on my team or else I wouldn’t play the team seriously. So I’ve trained in all situations of all the four characters (Wesker, Haggar and both forms of Phoenix with and without XF) which I think is really important. Anyway here they are:
Hey guys, here is a FT10 I played against my friend at my buddy’s house. It was recorded for purposes of me getting feedback on my gameplay. My friend is much better than me as you clearly see, I only take two games off him in the set.

I apologize for it being one chunk of 46 minute video…the actual FT10 is only about 30 minutes, and my friend didn’t split the footage. I don’t expect anyone to watch ALL of it unless you really want to, but what I’m mainly looking for hear is feedback about how to play this character. Right now my Haggar is extremely linear. My execution was also pretty bad in this set with me dropping combos with both Iron Man and Haggar…something I’m working on. I know there are people here that run similar teams as me so hopefully I can get a better gameplan aside from jumping pipe.
friendly casuals from yesterday morning on the final day of project storm with emphasis on the mayor of leopard pants. skip to 5min
been messing with whiffed up TACs after the qcfS air throw to switch sides on the way down to maintain corner pressure. works on the majority of the cast but a couple of characters have really weird laying down hit boxes that keep you on the same side. and if that’s the case you can use a side TAC to scoot forwards as you fall which has it’s uses, at least with my team
