Superior Tech Talk: MvC3 Iron Man Q & A - Ask Questions get Answers

that depends on what character but yes

also j.l aswel

I’ve picked up Wesker recently and Viscant convinced me that Mr. Stark is one of the best assists for him (He’s correct).

Anyways, since I’ll be using Robert Downey Jr., I don’t wanna be left helpless while playing him, so my question is; What’s the best way to use Iron Man?

Another question I have is what would people consider the best way to move around with Tony? I honestly find a lot of his mobility to be wonkey. His wavedashes have weird timing and his triangle jumps aren’t as fast as Magneto’s when it comes to movement. I honestly feel limited, so I was wondering if people found a way around that.

the best way to use iron man is however fits you best , honestly he has tools to do whatever.

you can plink dash

lastly stop comparing him to magneto a lot of characters ain’t as fast as him , just because its not as fast dose not make it useless he is still faster and more mobile than a lot of the cast , like compared to doom stark is turbo charged

/ his flight is the best in the game aswell but Nobody want to talk about that

What I meant is that Magneto’s triangle jumps allows him to hit the ground faster, making it a decent tool to move around, while with Iron Man, he kinda stays in the air longer. I didn’t mean to sound like I’m saying Magneto is superior. There are obvious benefits to this like making triangle-jump overheads much easier for Iron Man, while with Magneto, you kinda have to be a little higher for the attack to hit, so I generally accepted it as an offensive tool rather than a way to move around.

I never really experimented with his flight mode for mobility though, so I’ll try that out. Thank you for your time.

Is this normal? I’m having trouble finishing the “basic fly combo” when i hit S to knock them down to the ground, Ironman doesn’t follow them, he drops straight down instead of down right. Because of this my ground dash to smart bombs can’t reach the person to OTG into special :frowning: what am I doing wrong?

the Combo is cr L, cr m, st h, s, sjc, j.m, j.m, j.h, fly, j.m, j.m, j.h, j. down-h, S, DASH, smart bombs, Proton Cannon.

Are you jumping forward after the double jump? Sounds like you aren’t because that is what happens when you don’t jump forward. Best of luck.

he’s not doing a double jump at all

I just.done this combo n it worked fine for me

I’m not really sure

Yea I’m not double jumping. A video would be nice to see exactly what I’m doing wrong, thanks anyways guys.

I’ve always had the impression you’d be too far away to followup with dash > smart bombs if you didn’t (double) jump forward during an extended air combo. Midscreen, that is.

smart bombs otg from a lot further than most people thing

The timing at range on smart bomb to Proton Cannon is tight. You pretty much gotta hyper cancel the moment you see the bombs come out.

okay I will give it my best, although i think its more of a distance thing when I come down right after i hit them with j.S than a speed execution thing, but I’ll try thanks again.

Okay what is a Tri-Jump…I never understood this concept

Okay I need help I’m new to this series…I bought this game right when it first came out and now i"m looking for a good partner with she hulk and the hulk so I’m considering using iron man. I’ve went through the missions with him and completed all but Mission 9 so I feel like I have a good feel for him and his combos…my biggest problem is I can’t get close enough to my opponents to execute any of his stuff. What is a good mix up or what tactics are good IM players using to get in close enough to execute some good combos!!! HELP lol!

jumping up forward then air dashing down forward

And the reason tri-jumping is important is it allows you to mix-up your approach whether you will use a high attack or a low attack. It makes you really difficult to block.

first i’d say don’t play him just to rush down - make sure you utilize all of his tools whether that means unibeam more superjump smart bomb or even just repulsor blast spread a lot. You’ll want to approach (hopefully with assists backing you up) with trijumps and square jumps, but just make sure you know not to just go all in every time you are using iron man. he has great normals great speed great movement but his hitboxes hit at weird angles so be really careful with HOW you approach.

i tend to mix in squarejump double overhead trijump m and empty trijump (using h to make sure it wiffs) and double jump overheads - i’m working in flying overheads so that i can get a double overhead after i’ve tri-jumped in to keep things rolling and confusing.

Good stuff okay now how do you do tri jumps and square jumps…I never understood those concepts.

oh okay i see so I jump straight up or up-forward and air dash back down?

Yeah, Jump up/up-forward and then dash down-forward or down back(if you want to create some space)
