Straight Outta Asgard, Thors thread

Ok I’m too lazy to search this in the vids, but does the air version of Mighty Strike hit overhead, or can it be blocked low? Was thinking about whether he can Tiger-Knee the RDP motion and use it close to the ground. If it does work then it should be a fucking great pressure tool and better alternative to his tri-jump at close range. However I’m not too sure how liberal MvC3 is with inputs.

Thor’s finger point explained, and boy is it ever a good freakin’ explanation!!!

that epic Thor taunt is so sick.

Yea awesome news guys. We been wondering about the finger point for the longest :lol:

Nice for him to get a meter-building stance.

Can’t wait for people to say omg omg omg Thor & Phoenix :rolleyes:

Like all Gods, Thor gains power by boasting.

When will he ever have time to finish that speech?

Taunt the entire round and Ragnarok occurs

What’d be really cool is if he was hit during that it turned into a counter, but I doubt that’s the case.

Still, it’ll definitely have to be used cautiously and sparingly, but I bet it will have some very definite uses.

Thor’s legendary smack talking makes it into the game. Good to see.

I wonder do we know all of his assists? Cause that video had me thinking maybe he had a meter building assist, I mean it would only make sense what with him being the God of lighting and all.

yes we know of all his assists. It’s just the the first post is no longer updated. His assists are:

  1. Mighty Spark
  2. Mighty Smash
  3. Might Strike (up-forward version)

Holy shit, that taunt’s awesome. I’m guessing it could actually be practical with some good assists. MODOK’s aegis combined one of Trish’s traps, or would something offensive probably work better?

Hey guys, I made a suggestion on the unity suggestion box that the taunt have a counter component added to it to make it more useful in actual gameplay. Go vote if you agree!

Heed my words evil doers, if thou dost wish to challenge LEVEL 2 odin son, thou will face the divine power of mighty MJILNOR LEVEL 3 Never shall the god of thunder RELENT strike a pose LEVEL 4…Heed my words evildoers…

Niiiiice. This is gonna pure lulz. watch the bandwagon NOW.

That sounds a little unfair to me. That’s a really long counter, and it already builds meter really fast.

I know right :sad:

For the team I plan to run I dunno if it’s even gonna benefit me. In theory it’s great because it’ll get the person to stop running away from you, and actually approach. However most people who play keep-away are doing so with projectiles, so it’s a moot point. Should be good behind MODOK shield though, or halfway decent with a projectile assist backing him up.

the band wagon will last a day before people realize how big a pain in the ass it will be to even do the taunt in a match

game comes out in a month. pretty sure development is done now.

You can’t have it be both a meter charge and a counter :stuck_out_tongue:

I DO Think it should do something whacky if the opponent lets you charge it for the entirity of the speech.

Yoooo, Thor, Pheonix, Doom

Call doom rocks, thor taunts, call doom rocks thor taunts again, call doom rocks might spark to counter assist punishment.
Next thing you know a bunch of bars for pheonix xD

Hmm, this sounds VERY interesting! just use Thor as a battery for Phoenix! XD
