Luvcheez here on SRK has some videos up at his channel 09kluvcheez. He has a lot of vids where he’s using Morrigan’s meter boost assist. He seems to be pretty quick, not sure. See for yourself. Thought this would be relevant since the discussions shifter to her for a bit.
holy crap that almost looks unpunishable. at 0:23 in the second video, she comes out and gets hit but the meter is still given. then 6 seconds later at 0:29 he calls her out again and dante does his gun hyper at almost the same time and she gets out of there without getting hit even though she looked vulnerable during the hyper freeze.
Looks super neat for meter heavy characters, ala Jean and Shuma, but sacrificing an assit that could be used for offense or defense to gain meter might have more cons then pro. Idk
Since it’s harder to build meter while playing keepaway, I could see a battery assist being really good for keepaway Storm and constant Ice Storms. She’s already a solid character and would do fine with just one AAA-esque assist.
Why not? Morrigan rushdown looks pretty good right now. Even better with her clone super (forgot the name) not dissipating on hit anymore. Morrigan’s problem, in general, is that her supers are DHC cancer.
With Storm being so effective on her own, she wouldn’t need but one other assist that helps her upclose, for combos and semi-AAA (like Chun Legs or Doom Rocks). Storm might be effective rushdown, but there are still several characters that are zone-bait. At distance, battery assist that you can semi-spam isn’t gonna hurt against them.
That might work since Ice Storm is so good. But I doubt it does gdlk damage. Finishing Shower on its own does “eh” damage (and “eh” chip. And it’s not that easy to combo. Or DHC. Seriously, why is that super so shitty?)
The only problem with that super is that it does barely any chip. It’s not hard to combo into and the damage is good. I don’t know if it will DHC from ice storm though, cause it would really depend on how far Morrigan is away from the opponent for the missiles to reach the opponent. If she was close after DHC, then maybe it would combo.
You must be referring to the cr.A, cr.B, cr.C, launch, j.B, j.B, dj.B, dj.B, j.C combo we’ve seen in videos which does around 40%. There’s a better bnb into Finishing Shower which I’m sure does more damage, but that will have to wait until release before I can test it again(don’t remember how much damage that bnb did exactly). You’re right about it can only combo from j.C though in the air.
But I think that Finishing Shower isn’t really a good move to DHC into and I don’t think she’s DHC combo friendly(maybe Shadow Servant is fast enough to DHC into?). It’s better to DHC her in with Astral Vision imo…
I’ll probably end up using Skrull… although I haven’t even researched him, I should get on top of that.
My team on launch day will probably be Haggar, Super Skrull, and Doom. Probably some bad team synergy in there but I’ll just use this team to get the basics of the game down. Doom rocks/missles help close the gap for Haggar and Skrull since they might have a hard time getting close to runaways type characters and teams. Maybe someone else can point out the possibilities on what my team can do? lol
But yeah not much Skrull talk. Chun and Trish looking strong enough where everyone forgot him.
