As much as I love Cable in the comics, I’m going to stay away from him for a while. I used to have a decent Psylocke, but I can’t do crap with her anymore for some reason. I’m thinkin something along the lines of Cyke/Sent/Doom right now, and I want to build my Cammy back up. I’m going to borrow my friends ps2 version and tinker with it a bit. Thanks for all the keen advice guys.
Cosby owns you all
BTW DLJ what are those, Dinocons?
for the cammy training/advice you should probably ask the twin-anthony for that he has a badass cammy.
I can actually remember most of Cammy’s combos. I’ll ask him about that one where you do that w.punch like 14 times in a row though.
you see we each have our own techniques with each character, every dude who plays MvC2 at least has a certain good character.(top-tier ruins the fun sometimes :tdown: ) so it is good to play with other decent characters :tup: .
I post tommorow.
laterz dudes
That long double jump combo is useless unless you reset it by jumping on the other side. If you launch them, do two hits, cannon drill xx into super, it does much more damage.
And Cammy’s cool, but essentially get’s beaten by blocking low unless you get tricky with her. I think something like Cammy/Sent/Cyke would be cool. And Wolf your team actually sounds pretty creative. A lot you could do with that one.
And yes, that’s Soundwave and his cassette tape bitches.
Hey guys. GG to everyone. I guess I’ll try to contribute the little knowledge i know about this game. Sorry about the cheapness of blackheart and Cable/cyke. The sticks were all weird for me and I’m so out of practice. I’ll try to make the tourny but I doubt it. Plus its not like I’ll win. Work/money > marvel :sad:
super magneto, oh well i wish i knew that you guys were having mvc2 tournies at the other locations at the time, oh well. maybe we could get one together sometime, i’ll bring some cash for first prize.
spin4u, yeah, fighting against you would be great… i always love a great fighting game, and having rivals to test your max potential is what i live for. i’ll let you know when the phone company quits working me half to death, and i’ll fly in to town, hopefully before christmas. i also just picked up playing GGXX, it is a pretty awesome game afterall. yeah, juan teached me real good in 3rd Strike, but i still can’t parry worth a damn. and best of all i haven’t found it in freaking tulsa yet, so no practice for a while.
good advice on collosus btw… i actually use him more often than i should, probably. he is a solid higher-mid-tier in my opinion, if for no other reason that he is great against sentinal (probably second-best against the giant robot, with Cable as first, of course), and his super-armor makes magneto much less of a threat. but there are other reasons! he takes second least damage in the game, and has murderously powerful combos and single hits. the problem? he is slow as hell, has no projectiles, and not much of a good mix-up game. so, “solid” in more meanings than one. also, while he has usuable assists, they are not among the best. :karate:
and yes the queer that is cyke is a damn good fighter in the game, though not really as powerful as he was in x-men vs street fighter, he is very useful. the main problem is that he takes damage like the little bitch that he is, so don’t screw-up! lol
What are you talking about? Cyke takes regular damage just like Cable, Ruby Heart, and CapCom.
Anyway, this is all you need to own SA…
yeah cyke takes regular damage, but is much easier to punish… he eats more damaging combos than other characters his size and strength. lanky bastard.
lol, do you mean that SA cannot defend against rogue, or that you could wipe out every player in SA while they are distracted by ashley judd’s juggs? :wow:
cyclops is pretty good fighter :tup: and he is a keep away character, well when i use him against rogue or t.bonne and probably storm, other less than team RST. that is pretty much the only time i use him. joe’s team :sad: . colossus is great but he sucks against playing storm and cable(probably magneto)its cool to see other colossus players :tup: .
yeah, don’t get me wrong, i’m not saying that cykes sucks. as a matter of fact, that was the only thing i had to say about him, as far as weaknesses go. his keep away is good, but in previous games, i utilized a sort-of “mix-up keep away” with his medium punch optic-blast, and that is obviously no longer available. also, his MOB was easier to combo into i think. anyway, he is still really strong, as you can see with some of the best players around using him as their primary assist/back-up character. messing around with him, i think that his command throw even does a little bit more damage now, doesn’t it? not only that, but in this assist-crazy game, it is easy to juggle them even more after the command throw. hhmm… cyke’s command-throw–> Captain-Corridor? ouch, that would be a nice chunk of damage. i’m at work, can someone check for me if it works?
hey what characters do you play with?
can you list?
Omg omg omg The new season of smallville sept 11… I can hardly wait:)
Exxxx*hmmmmmm u gonna pass by swm… Tons of scrubs for you to bust:)
Cyclops this playa was deadly in x-men vs street fighter standing Rh into mob was 79% damage or mob to a blocking character while mashing was something like 34% DAMAGE…Retarded-
Cyke in Mvc2 ehh jumping Rh seems to beat lots of stuff out…His uppercut has like a frame of invincibility so I try to abuse when I can.
um combo video I think i’ve shown all my tricks:(A little from column A, a little from column B. :cybot:
This one’s for Fox, most annoying Psy in SA…
Flanders scream
More random pics…
obviously as a serious competitor i had to learn to use the top 5:
storm
magneto
cable
sentinal
cammy
mix and match those in any order
but i really don’t like them. i mostly learned them to use when i must, and to learn all their moves and tactics, learning the way a person thinks when they play with those characters, so that i can defeat them with the characters i like…
characters i PREFER to use when i can include:
MECHA ZANGIEF (second fav character in whole game)
collosus
all shotokans
thanos
strider (duh)
blackheart
juggernaught
the hulk
silver samurai
cyclops
captain commando
captain america
omgega red
chun li
dhalsim (i miss honda)
doom
hayato
spiral
venom
felicia
gambit
characters i will NEVER use other than to learn how people think when they use them against me:
amingo
anakaris (seriously, no demitri!?)
bb hood
charlie
dan
guile
iceman
roll
megaman
servbot
sonson
tronne bonne
spiderman
character i am most pist about: wolverine. both versions are NOT from MvC1… otherwise, he would have those combos! (ie j. d+HK, HK, /\ LK,MK,HK, Super-of-your-choice) also, wolverine is one of the toughest fuckers ever in a storyline, why does he take damage like a bitch? and after all these freakin’ games, where is his HEALING FACTOR??? make it a level 3 super, whatever, but where is it??? wolverine could take out any sentinal by himself. damn, he took on Galactis for crying-out loud!
thus, the ONLY time i will ever pick wolverine in this game is with my Ryu/Chun Li/Bone Wolverine Team. talk about high/low HELL for my poor opponents! (you CANNOT block high & low at the same time.) unfortunately weak against zoning and AHVB. surprizing a very good team against traps, even the best of traps.
still pist about wolverine being so weak… how can spiderman take damage better than the berserker!!?
sorry if you were expecting me to list specific teams, but i mix-and-match. i have been playing this game religeosly since i learned of it’s existence years ago, and i mostly play for fun now… the only teams i use on a regular basis anymore are
Team Fuck-you Up: Ken, Ryu, Akuma
Team Make-you Whine: Strider, Doom, Blackheart
Team Dreadnaught: MZ, Collosus, Juggernaught
all other teams depend on the player i am facing and his own strengths and weaknesses, and whether or not he has the skills to be a threat to me, or i want to play with him, or hurt him.
finally, the best character ever from any game that you will almost always find in my team, especially when i am playing for keeps: Ryu. he has the BEST. STORY. EVER.
First off, Cammy is NOWHERE NEAR to 5.
2nd, if you’re gonna use a Strider team like the one you listed, BH would be perfect as your starter. Cover the ground with Doom, jump and throw demons till you get at least 3 bars of super meter, DHC into Strider’s orbs, and there you have it.
3rd, Woverine/Sent/Wolverine. There’s a guy in Cali who uses that team and kicks serious ass with them. He plays them fast as hell and EVERYTHING he does is covered so avoid getting hit and to make up for the lag of some of Wolverine’s move. In MVC2, the Wolverines are less about big combos and more about mixups and speed.
Felicia is actually only good for taking on Strider/Doom. Her sandkick super is fast as hell, as SOON as Strider activates his orbs, counter with the kick super. If you’re fast enough, it’ll take him down or at least make him block for a little bit. Not to mention her regular sand kick move beats Doom’s assist.
Gambit and Cyke are a great tandem. There’s a lot of ways to combo off of his AAA into a super into another super for great damage. Just remember that Gambit’s launcher (d fp) beats out pretty much any jump in move.
Anyway if you want more info just ask me at the arcade or something or IM me at DrumlinerJoe on AOL. Peace.
Owns SA, part II…
drumlinejoe, lately cammy has proven to be among the meanest point characters in the game, and her AAA is very useful. the only thing she lacks is the ability to fly. in any case, i don’t actually believe in “tiers” quite the same as everyone else. i believe that the only reason some characters are considered to be so far and above everyone else is because their abilities are new, and there are new tactics that can be used with them that people have hardly seen before. magneto and storm have speed and great combos now, and people are just not used to dealing with that. rogue is a powerhouse in many places right now, because of her “triangle assault” game. (but not so much as magneto and storm, because that is the only new tactic that people have to fear, coming from rogue) sentinal is new, and totally different than any character before in some ways. when people first played well with him, he was nearly invincible, but they soon found ways to beat him. becoming more and more common, he becomes easier and easier to beat. remember when very, very few people could beat a good Cable user? AHVB x 3 seemed to be the move that would nobody would ever beat. now most people can beat the crap out of those weaklings. the point is that currently, cammy is in the top tier, though she won’t be there quite as long as the other top four, because she is not completely new and different, like Cable and Sentinal, and her game has not changed drastically, like magneto and storm.
first of all i always appreciate advice, and want to thank you for offering it. keep it coming, i always want to improve my game. but, as for my strider/doom/blackheart team,i start it out in different patterns, depending on my opponent’s choices and my mood at the time. you are right, sometimes blackheart as a battery is good for the match, but sometimes i just want to control the match from the very, VERY start, and that can be difficult with blackheart at times, but always very very easy with strider. other times, i will start out chipping with doom. no set pattern, i can flow between tactics, whatever works best for me at the moment, or more precisely, whatever is worst for my opponent at the moment. also, because blackheart’s supers have slow start-up time, it’s difficult to DHC him out if he gets in trouble. and quite frankly, some characters he should not be on point against. anyway, the order i listed them in is not rigid. “kokoro is not a rigid mental attitude, it is whatever attitude you need to win.” -f j lovret
yeah, i’ve heard of that. (reference to wolv/sent/wolv) and by no means does wolverine suck, not at all. like most characters, he can be pure evil with the proper assists and tactics. HOWEVER, he was at his best in MvC1, and i really don’t think they should have toned him down. anyway, most of my complaints on him are meta-game. (wolverine is the only comic i have ever seriously collected, one of my all-time fav fictional characters, so i am a bit biased here)
felicia is under-rated. she is a great rushdown character with strong mix-up, and can cancel her normals and specials into supers VERY easily. anyway, i like her because she plays much closer to wolverine in MvC1, and lets face it, she’s freaking hot. agreed, she will never be more than middle-tier, has a hard time against certain characters, and dies against MZ without super meter to burn. and while she doesn’t have major priority, she is hard to punish afterwards, if you can just get the offense started to begin with.
yeah, gambit and cyke work well together. actually, his AAA is great for pretty much everyone. the only time i would pick someone else’s AAA is, for example if i want Ken’s invincibility, capcom’s <width>range and damage, or blackheart’s tracking ability. as for gambit’s launcher, it has great priority, but he’s f*cked if you can make it whiff. (which is still difficult to do, i agree) but yes, they go great together, too bad for cyke that gambit isn’t gay. if you’re fast with cyke on point, you can have a killer mix-up with gambit’s projectile assist. i also like making them block gambit’s projectile and command-throwing them with cyke. just don’t hesitate! if they don’t block but get hit, they don’t recover quick enough to punish cyke from his whiffed throw anyway. probably works well with his real girlfriend rogue, also, using her kiss. don’t know for sure, i don’t use her much anymore.
again, thanks for the advice, keep it coming.
