Couldn’t grab her in between the gap, couldn’t fit in a short or anything in the gap really. Tried to do a Napalm Pillar but that wasn’t working out. In one of the instance a cat head just randomly hit me.

Check the Valentine thread. I’ve been more or less out of action from this game for a month. I just got beat by a dude jumping around like an idiot and doing random buttslams into catellites. So…I’m gonna have to check how the hell to anti-air both this bitch and Cerebella since they have some fruity angles that keep hitting me out of things I thought would anti-air.

I’m verily confused though, people seem to be doing a lot of random shit that works. For some reason some of my matches have looked hella MvC3.

There’s recovery after the Cat Heads are called too. Hold up on the stick and you can see how long Double is stuck there after Cat heads are called.

[Pertho]

Hmm…I’ll try this stuff out later. Thanks for the replies.

[MWisk_2]

Damn, “Capcops” are everywhere now… we are losing our freedom.

Each time Ravi talks about DLC my hype levels go through the roof. In the meantime I’m theorizing some new IPS combos, I suggest you guys to do the same. I’m kinda scared that the scale might tip a little in favor of some ratio choices. I hope options will still beat raw damage in the end.

THOTH doing it for the Soloberra pride.

I need to run a set with him.

[Mr.X]

Everyone needs to watch this and learn

I kind of saw this coming when the Salt Thread got deleted with no explanation.

Isn’t a/the salt thread … kind of … talking about the game though? “Fuck motherfuckin Fortune and the fuckin NOMNOM ARRRRRRRRRRR” is at least… related :oops:

We mentioned this to Steam when we met with them at GDC, and they said they don’t really do that themselves any more, and they’re transitioning that kind of promotional stuff to DOTA2.

Fuck TF2. Dota2 Skins/whatever are WAY better, holy crap. Do that. Yesyesyesyes.

skullpanda14: parasoul needs striped panties

[Hecatom]

That is what I’m referring to.

I don’t want to give him the attention, but someone is convinced that the controller patch completely changed everything about the game. Like Valentine’s move speed, AI, etc.

None of that happened, and he’s convinced it did. Mike tried to correct him, and he now thinks we said he was “lying” and is doubling down.

NOTHING has changed since launch, but he’s convinced it has.

bro, you can report his account and posts in his blog as defamation

He can teach you the ways of random 360s. ^^

Soon are the days that there will be no Nom.

Only this:

The grand finals for WNF wasn’t even worth watching. I felt disgusted that Thoth was in it and not Mike. I’m not riding on Mike’s nuts but he’s more interesting to watch than Thoth. And probably would have put up a better fight against Mega Man DS.

[Ian_Conway]

It just feels like the play today was sloppy, when this game gets more optimized this game is gonna be way better to watch.

• nope. i find her much more ambiguous with the her double over heads, which can cross up, or she can land and go low/throw. much more ambiguous. as hard to block as mvc2 magneto due to these mixups/speed. other characters don’t have this, and are much easier to block.

Everyone has some fairly ambiguous setups. Everyone has good resets. I mean, even Peacock can make you guess four ways with the right setup. If anything, I find Filia’s resets easier to react to and block simply because I know that they are coming (or maybe because I am used to blocking Magneto after ten years of playing MVC2).

In the case of most characters, they have a choice of doing a long combo for big guaranteed damage or risking a reset for bigger, non-guaranteed damage. In Filia’s case, she doesn’t have the first option unless she is willing to burn three or four meters. The Filia player has no choice but to go for the reset every time, so I am always ready and it’s just a matter of guessing right. Against a Parasoul or Fortune player I often find myself getting trained to expect that they will do the full looping combo, only to suddenly find myself getting reset before I can react.

Only game I played was JJBA on it with people from France so I wouldn’t truly know but if it’s possible to have 130 ping+ on 2 or 3 delay smooth then I’ll jump higher than a cat trying to catch a fly out of joy.

I play MVC2 on PSN and it uses GGPO-like netcode. With rollbacks, the game is playable even against opponents with over 200 ping.

So I’m thinking the changes to the IPS and assist damage is going to make solo characters much more powerful against teams. Since there aren’t going to be nearly as much extended combos, it’ll be much harder for a character in a triple team to do heavy damage to a solo in one combo. While solos should still get enough mileage to kill on shorter combos and only 1 or 2 resets.

I agree the change will benefit solos, but honestly they needed the help. As the game was shaping up there wasn’t much reason to go solo. I can’t even figure out why people solo with Fortune right now, since even with two characters she can TOD a solo.

Green Vial nerf on top of new IPS just seems like overkill for nerfing Val. Either that or if the decrease isn’t by much, then it may be rendered completely pointless by the new IPS anyway. I think my BnB is still good, but what’s a busty based broad to do when she wants some swag combos? I do like the Flatliner changes, but that’s pretty minor.

My BnB is almost completely unaffected by the IPS changes, but Mike might have killed it with his nerf to j.HP.

With the hitbox of loading the vial being able to hit, you would be able to load multiple green vials during a corner combo. Over time, I am sure Valentine players would figure out a way to abuse the shit out of this and make combos that lasted well over a minute.

I agree with this, but I think it’s simply better to get rid of the hitbox on loading the vial. It’s cute, but it’s the kind of thing that will either be abused on degenerate reloading setups or ignored completely. There is no middle-ground with it.

lol at the WNF… most scrubtastic solobella i witnessed in tourney play.
[media=youtube]hHHB00Nu3Ak[/media]
lmao at Mike Z not wanting to shake his hand…

[Sanger_Zonvolt]

Mike Z was out of there faster than Sonic the Hedgehog.

[pali]

LOL i like how someone with the name ratio 4 cerebella says that. The scrubbiest easy mode high dmg for being stupid character there is, derp derp i can cancel anything to grab super weee half health for being a retard i don’t need to learn anything.

As said by me earlier

[Master_Chibi]

I think Mike mentioned you could only combo with the head and rekkas if it was the light punch version.

Also that just looks way sexier then om nom nom loop ever did, haha.

[The_Duke]

It’s anchor wesker again. We’ll get over it.

[Dark_Radiance]

When is this damn patch coming?
