Such a waste of life! The Wesker Video thread

I finally got the hang of this last night. I’ll make a proper video sometime, but I thought y’all might find this interesting.[media=youtube]X356AMBazjk[/media]

I’ll add annotations later, but here are some fun things you can do.

A bunch of resets for Wesker. One of the main things stopping me from doing these before were Traggar. Now these should be more viable. Obviously not good to rely on these but using once every while is a good thing.

My product of boredom. The three minute and twenty-seven second guide to making you gooder at UMvC3. An intro to the basics of Wesker/Doom. Yeah…it’s not a super serious awesome video and it’s not very good, but what the heck.

Just threw together a quick little video of my Wesker BnB after some troll told me I was lying when I claimed I could do 1 million for 1 meter with Wesker.

The quality is ass, but considering I recorded it using my pos phone camera duct-taped to a chair, it came out alright I guess lol. The actual video starts at around :35, the rest is more or less just me ranting.

There’s some additional info regarding the combo in the description, by the way.

I’m about to head to (get bodied at) my locals, but if someone wants notations I’ll write em down later. Granted, the combo is simple as hell.

Edit: Ok… YouTube fucked up the description so I’ll just rewrite it here

[LIST]
[]-It’s easiest to do it with a ground bounce assist.
[
]-In theory you could do it with any assist that has enough active frames to hold them in place so you can QCF+M, but you’d probably have to omit the launcher portion due to HSD. So you’d QCF+M -> Teleport -> cr. H xx Phantom Dance instead of cr. HS, j. H xx Phantom Dance If HSD is STILL too high, omit the cr. H and just Teleport -> Phantom Dance (Or just Phantom Dance… but the teleport helps with positioning imo)
[]On larger hitbox characters (and in general really), it is easier/necessary to go straight into palm after j. S instead of doing j. S, cr. H -> palm at the beginning of the combo
[
]With the right assist, you can do 800k meterless without ever having left the ground (except the beginning, that is). I’ve still got to work on my hit confirms with my new team order, but I eventually intend to use this tech exclusively for resets if I figure out a way to push the damage even higher
[]You don’t have to start it with a j. S, it works off of cr. M just fine.
[
]There is some potential for missile shenanigans here as well, I’m just really worn out from things lately and don’t feel like tampering with it.
[]I’ve always said this… but I feel it to be a good time to reiterate. Dark Wesker is a waste of X factor.
[
]You can do a similar thing out of command grabs by using the light version of it and proceeding to Dash -> cr. H xx palm
[*]For that matter, it works with pretty much any starter, though obviously there’s a damage difference of varying degrees.
[/LIST]

You spent like 90% of the video being condescending and like 10% on the actual tech.

Doesn’t even look like new tech, just looks like the -3 day video of the glasses-off Wesker loop that everyone was going crazy over when it was on front page, just with a ground bounce assist added ( In fact I think the video that was front paged hit 750k meterless/no assists ). Shouldn’t get so offended by SRK/Stream monsters.

Grats I suppose though, Wesker tech jsut seems empty because these forums are so inactive ( I assume its because Wesker is so autopilot to play that no one needs to discuss his tech, or so they think )

No kidding. Hence the reason I said skip to :35 for the actual video. Wasn’t supposed to sound condescending (except maybe towards the ones who led to the tone of the video in the first place)… not surprised it came off that way though given that I’ve been frustrated about one thing or another for over 2 weeks now. There’s only so many times you get called a liar before you tend to not be so chipper about the matter. The one mentioned in the video wasn’t the first, just the last I remember. Anywho, it was more of a call to explore -everything- rather than assuming someone else will spoon feed it to you, regardless of the character involved. But I digress…

If it or something like it has been posted already, I apologize. Although, considering how many times I’ve been called a liar for it at this point, if it has been posted, it must be very obscurely known. But I digress again…Like I mentioned, I don’t typically read these forums, so a couple of quick scans of them might not have been sufficient to reveal that. And the people who create the combo threads around here seem to never keep them updated, so locating such a thing is difficult at best.

Oh well no worries, I know how frustrating it can be dealing with some people on the internet. Its not that obscure, I mean, a youtube search of “UMVC3 Wesker Combo” will bring up pretty much your exact same combo and was posted probably 6~ Months ago ( I couldn’t find the video that was posted before UMVC3 was even officially released but thats where I first saw it ), along with plenty of notations for the combo in the combo thread.

1st combo in this video.

Although i’m not sure how exactly you get 1 million, i’m not a Wesker player whatsoever, not sure if i’ve ever even played him in a real match but I did go into training room real quick to replicate what you did ( same assist and all ) and I wasn’t able to get that much. I had similar damage up until I had to Phantom Dance ( little less, around 730k~ ) but my Phantom Dance only brought my damage up to like… 850k-900k tops. Even did it from the same side, fully mashed or unmashed. Anything special you do to make Phantom Dance do more damage?

How the hell did you find that. Would have saved me 30 minutes and alot of grief -.- Ah well. It at least lends to the point of not necessarily needing a ground bounce assist for such a thing.

Anywho, are you doing the teleport after the wallbounce palm, or just trying to dash and make it connect?

Haha I told you, I just typed in UMVC3 Wesker Combo into youtube, 2nd video that pops up.

I did both and got similar results but I also did st.H instead of cr.H maybe thats the difference, not sure on the properties of phantom dance.

Yeah I think I looked up “wesker palm loop” or something like that. I spent more time looking on here for it than YouTube though. Should have dug a little deeper, but like I said, I’m worn out lol.

Also, using standing H would definitely make a difference. Surprised it would make that big of a difference though. At what point are you doing the stand H though? Early in the combo or at the end?

Like right at the end when you do HS, j.H xx Phantom Dance. I might just be missing some parts of the combo too but who knows.

Nope that wasn’t it. Doing like the exact same combo, teleport into cr.H S H Phantom Dance and i’m sitting at around 730k damage before super, caps at like 880-900k.

Hrm… only way I can get the damage that low is by not teleporting properly after the palm (you should end up behind them, not in front). Are you sure your damage isn’t on low? Here’s the transcription for my combo though:

j. S, [cr. H xx QCF+L…Teleport L, Gunshot OTG] x2, cr. H xx QCF+L…Teleport L, Assist… Gunshot OTG, QCF+M xx Teleport L, cr. HS, j. H xx Phantom Dance

…The hell is up with SRK’s editing thing retaining old data lol.

Oic, I was doing Cr.M xx QCF+L, L, still coming up short on damage but its pretty close, just sitting at 940-970k.

Sounds about right depending on how PD hits. There’s a method to the madness of getting all of the hits to hit (though, 1 hit tends to go absent at will), but I’m not quite sure how to put, in words, how to do it. You’ve just got to kind of get a feel for it.

Haha well it doesn’t matter to me because I don’t even play Wesker, although I might pick up a pocket team of Wesker/Doom/Strider or something. Not sure I like using the cr.H loop over the cr.M one though, I can’t really hit confirm into the cr.H loop it feels like, like off a lmh xx palm hit confirm. Either way its only a slight damage loss. I like Wesker more as a reset/grappler character anyway

hey guys im just picking up wesker I know I could be doing better combos, but could I get some match critique please?

[media=youtube]Ld7dPCJy07k[/media]

I was asked to put this on SRK, so here you go :slight_smile:

These are combos much more different to the ones you’re used to, solo and with assists (I used my team for this but they all still work depending on your chars) and includes a glasses on gun loop and some Dark Wesker swag.
If you want me to do other videos such as mixups and resets, feel free to request it.

Yo CKeegan, thanks a lot for that vid, gdlk combos! Mixups and resets video would be great!

Would love to see further works from you!
