She’s a joke character in the same sense as Daimaoh or some incarnations of Dan. She’s ridiculous, but still usable. One of the reasons people seem to hate Daimaoh is because he’s a joke character (or whatever you define his type of character as), but Roll is the same.
It’s disappointing to hear about the music too.
Roll/Casshern is one of the best teams in the game
Roll/Daimao are HUMOR type characters. A Joke character is indeed created to fail.
Roll is SERIOUS buisness.
Not everything is punishable via pushblock. Pushblock still gets the opponent way out of your attacking range most of the time. Unless your opponent is using a particularly slow move or you’re using Karas, you won’t really be punishing too much off Pushblock.
Especially since some moves lose all their lag if they’re pushblocked (Morrigan 5C anyone?)
I do dislike pushblock though, but only because it cuts chip damage.
well yeah, if you wanna do stringy shit without using assist to stay safe, or just be stupid stringy period, then you should get push blocked and raped for it. so thats how i feel about that. lol. shit, before mvc1 you had NO assist, and in mvc1 you had limited amount of times you could use it. mvc2 brought that assist spam shit. people should be grateful to not have someone spamming assist in block stun all day with little down time between assist.
tatsunoko got a bad rap because of a few players who were putting down the game due to the karas shit and were riding sf4’s dick to all hell so they could get paid off of it. we all know this. marvel is a ten year old game that developed a lot of hype through money matches and it being so amusing from all the shit talking hype, so its a hard comparison to game that just came out 8 months ago as import only. it will gain some flow once the u.s version drops i think, and things are adjusted in the gameplay.
i fucking love this game.
You’re not the only one.
Also yeah Roll is serious. Don’t let the big round eyes fool you.
Is the US version going to see a re-release in Japan in the arcades?
I still wonder what the hell were the devs into when making Daimaou’s hitbox.
Really doubtful. They don’t even do that for Japanese console releases anymore, which I think is to guarantee a continued stream of arcade revenue due to the home versions not being “arcade perfect.” So it seems like there’s really no chance at all of them patching the arcade version due to a console release overseas. 
What do you mean? Are you talking about them OTG problems? Cuz that’s not a hitbox thing, that’s a recovery time thing.
Yeah, that is a better way of putting it.
But my point still stands that Roll is the same type of character that he is, so if he’s a “blight”, so is she.
The difference:
-People like Roll; people don’t like Daimaoh.
-Most people know Roll already; most people didn’t even know who Daimaoh was until this game.
-People think Roll is cute; people think Daimaoh is ugly.
-People know that Roll can kick your ass; people think Daimaoh sucks and therefore never use him which causes him to stay as the eternal bottom tier.
So yeah =/
Dont forget the uncrashable OTG infinites due to Daimao being unable to get his fat ass off the ground at a normal speed.
How quickly people forget what happened when it was announced that MvC2 would only have FOUR attack buttons. They freaking flipped out and denounced the game before even playing it saying that it would be simplified to the point of lameness.
Those ignorant of the past are doomed to repeat it. :looney:
Oh yeah, there’s that too. How could I forget the most important reason that Roll>Daimaoh in a Roll vs Daimaoh comparison? 
Didn’t Daimaou also have a strange htibox wherein some combos won’t work on him?
Taking Daimao out was probably the cheapest glitch fix Capcom ever did. Not only did they fix the glitch, but they save money on character rights as well.
That and if they took Roll out, who would the lolicons play?
</smartass>
I know I have some trouble doing some combos on him with Ippatsuman, but that’d be because of his floatiness, not because of his hitbox.
I’m gonna miss those Daimao 623C superman Ume anti-air grabs T_T
