Spider-Man changes for UMVC3 2013 update?

give spiderman untechable web balls again. or an air web throw Kappa

The problem with spidey is this:

He is designed as a point character, but has no real way to open opponents up; at least not nearly effective as other points. Wolvie has instant overheads, huge normals, and left/right mixups. Wesker has command grab, teleports, counters, and stupid normals. Spencer has a command grab and a healthy dose of too much dmg for each correct guess. Mags has high/low mixups and better air mobility. Everyone of these guys have an easier time converting random air hits, and not to mention that those guys also have better assists

All this, and spidey can’t even have a standing magic series that works on everyone D: C’mon capcom. Really hope they come and fix this

I don’t really find it difficult to open people up with a beam assist compared to Spencer and Wesker. Spidey does have an instant overhead with jM, midscreen crossups, triple/double overheads, low empties with zip drops, etc. The problem with his tools is that they’re not as braindead as Spencer’s overhead or Wolvie’s BS crossup xx speed up, they need to be spaced correctly to be effective. A pushblocked jump-in sets it up quite well though but you will need a beam to get a good confirm.

That said, Spidey does need some hitbox tweaks together with better web ball chip and damage to improve his runaway/keepaway game. His assists could use some buffs too.

much like how frank, phoenix wright, ammy, morrigan, and ironfist (kinda) have assist only moves, i think spiderman can benefit from having (at least) one also. currently, all of his assists are less than decent. maybe something like a web trap, or a web ball that travels in a parabolic arc, or a multi-hitting melee assist. i’d even be happy with some modifications on web ball. whatever it is, he desperately needs something better in the assist department.
also, spiderman has no issues getting hits on people.

You guys are completely missing out on whats really important with this character. Why does he have 2 red costumes and 4 black ones? What the fuck? He has the worst alt colors in the game.

Blame it on Marvel. Also, he only has 3 black costumes with 3 reds and 1 white. I have to agree though that the color choices were quite whack, especially the alt one.

I consider the Fantastic 4 one a black costume also.

I can’t blame you.

personally, i’d like to see his black and green alternate return, with a slightly different hue of green.

As far as costumes I’d prefer to see the final Bem Reily Spidey costume that he had in the comics that he gave to his daughter May.

I feel that they should have at least one unmasked costume of almost each hero or villian on the marvel side. Like Spidey as quick change Spidey w/ his web backpack n his costume w/ no mask. Also would love to see cowboy wolv w/ cowboy hat, tank t, jeans, boots, big ass belt buckle.
