Smokin' Sick Style! The Dante General Discussion Thread!

Hey guys, haven’t had time to go through his movelist, so ill just ask, is there anything this guy can’t do? The only thing i see missing is a command grab and I may have just missed it. I guess capcom wanted to make sure at least one of their characters was top tier, I really wanna main him but he is probably gonna be the new ken so I may not bother.

No, he has no command grab. No, he has tools, but to think he’s top tier because of that is preposterous. PREPOSTEROUS! Lastly, if the fact that he’s going to be overplayed (and oooh boy, he will be) is discouraging you from using Dante, that’s much too bad. But I’ll get over it. More Dante for me anyways. : )

Thanks for the feedback, I’m going to have pics/vids up of all his main moves but they’re all over the place in various levels of quality so I’d figured I’d do it closer to launch when more people get hands on with the game (we all know some lucky jerk is going to get a retail copy early and post vids, I know it).

can we get the first post updated with stuff like the inputs for his 100%? pls

A video isn’t good enough? At least until we know more about his moves and stuff?

wasnt there a notation for it? i thought someone explained it before

Probably in the old thread, but from what I can see (Not going to be perfect, still don’t know exactly which normal is which button save for the obvious stuff):

A B C, E , j.A j.B j.C, Killer Bee(j.:qcf:A), E, j.A j.B, Sky Dance(j.:qcf:C)>Million Dollar (Mash for more hits), KFC, Jetstream(:qcb:C)>Fireworks>Million Dollar (Mash for more hits).

In the combo vid I posted on the first page looks like you can even do Reverb Shock(:qcb:A)>Fireworks>Million Dollar before the KFC, but more research will have to be done on that.

Can yall try out Jam Session with Dante on point and NOT only an assist?

I looked safe AND you can combo into it.

Yeah, hits from both sides as well. AND it also hits OTG which is nice. Too bad it can’t Style Cancel into anything.

A B C, E , j.A j.B j.C, Killer Bee(j.A), E, j.A j.B, Sky Dance(j.C)>Million Dollar (Mash for more hits), KFC, Jetstream©>Fireworks>Million Dollar (Mash for more hits).

In this combo you posted what is KFC.?

X Factor Cancel, (XFC). Called KFC here.

Ooo I see. Thanks

Well even if he doesn’t end up top tier, I doubt he can be anything less than mid-tier since he pretty much has the tools for almost any situation. But your right, its too early to tell, I was one of the people who thought dudley was gonna be broken tier in ssf 4 and look how that turned out. Whats the word on devil trigger though, all i know is what is in the OP is there anymore information on this mode? I personally am a big fan of install type supers so it intrigues me. And personally there are few things i despise as much as mirror matches, but i guess itll be different in marvel since its 3 on 3.

I havent kept up with Dante stuff so maybe you guys know about this. Otherwise, here is a vid of an annoying ass crossup he can do:

Its from the same guys who seem to be playing MvC3 in their home, and shown us the Hulk 100% combo

Yeah, Seth mentioned this way back in the E3 build. Saying it to be one of Dante’s strengths. And I saw Marn pull it off a few times in the CES 2011 secret event build during the tournament.

During the Team Aerial Exchange, Dante used Killer Bee to get to the ground before his opponent and do super to juggle, kind of like how Zero used Hienkyaku to continue his combos in TvC.

Look do you really think the legions of shoto scrubs that plagued SF4 online who could barely do qcf or dp motions and had supers and ultras mapped to macros are gonna be able to play Dante much less put up with the random stuff happening because they have no idea why they are getting the moves they are getting. Hes gonna require good execution to play. Relax, maybe for the first week or two we’ll see a lot of him but it’ll end up being Iron Man, Ryu and Akuma, etc, etc when its all said and done.

I can see him being used a good bit at tournaments but not until people are comfortable with most of his moves.

This a pretty good video. I like it alot. How the hell did he get a copy so fast. (lol)

Why, I dunno, sounds silly IMO. They should just call it ‘XC’ then.

But that’s just my opinion.

Can’t wait to play Dante!

I was just diggin up some old vids of mvc3 and this vid has a combo in the beginning that was a bit flasher than the bnb I keep seeing. looks cool. wonder if it still works. i saw some pretty interesting stuff from the past.
