The only problem with MVC3... is you

You have no idea how sad and dull that explanation sounds.

I’m not demeaning you mind you, but if that’s what shit is going to boil down to that sounds pretty damn pathetic.

Now see, there’s good sides and bad sides. Arguably the fact that the match is still relevant until the round ends is a good thing. But in reality it’s not that cut and dry, the losing player is and always will be at a massive disadvantage. Sure it sounds horrible when you frame it the way you did, but to do so is disingenuous

Someone’s never played a good IM or Anak player… but uhh, even ignoring that that’s pretty much what he’s saying, you make a mistake in MvC2, a character dies… provided the other guy isn’t retarded and can do his basic as all fuck combos and hyper loops.

I’m not seeing how that’s really relevant to my point. I assumed we were talking about at least modestly competent players. If we’re talking about players that are that moronic, then yes, X-factor Sentinel standing in one place pressing nothing but H and S is horrendously unstoppable.

Sad and dull, but still relevant… The bitter truth is, if you get reverse OCV’d, it’s almost guaranteed that it’s because you fucked up.

Chun X-Factor vs Hulk X-Factor

Yeah, I see your point now. They are on equal grounds because both can use X-Factor.

Great post click on nominate

Welcome to Die, deal with it, this is Marvel.

I agree on most part of this Thread, the structure and all, please keep up the good work!

one character
no assists
unless it’s someone crazy fast in x-factor, how are you getting opened up?

if you have 3, you can just pin him down and open him up, burn time off his x-factor.

How is that sad and dull? You took out 2 of his people. If you had to use your own X-Factor to do so then you deserve to be eating a lvl3 x-factor it’s only fair. If you haven’t used X-Factor yet then you still have the advantage because when you’re down to 1 person you can activate level 3 x-factor and then you only have to kill 1 person and not 3.

Unless there is some special way to kill all 3 people without even giving them a chance to touch the ground (see: AHVB and then guard break AHVB the next guy or ironman infinite then guard break ironman infinite the next guy in MVC2 that everyone loves and adores) that I’m not aware of there is nothing wrong with x-factor. It adds a unique twist to the game.

Hm? Iron Man infinite? Snapback to assist launch infinite? Not to mention that both lead to a free guard break?

It’s true that these can be avoided (if I keep them in mind), but so can the things in MvC3 (…if I keep them in mind).

And it’s true that Iron Man isn’t exploited these days, but I don’t see unblockables exploited in MvC3.

Chun can fuck up your whole team easy. There is no running from level 3 Chun. It’s easier said than done, and if you use an assist, it will most like die in collateral damage.

That’s not pathetic it’s common sense.

Somebody has lvl3 XF, maybe just maybe I should let him have his temper tantrum and jump in after he’s done. Oh look, if he gets lucky enough I still have XF factor myself - to either finish him off or save it as my own safety net. And the beautiful part: All the points against XF are now in my favor.

I see nothing wrong with Bruce’s logic, it’s more or less a rewording of the ‘fight fire with fire’ mentality that SRK also preached before everything turned Pacific.

Are you being sarcastic/trolling? I can’t really tell. Are you trying to say x-factor is a broken mechanic or that hulk is better than chun-li? Make up your mind.

If someone gets in on your with no assists, you either screwed up or they are much better than you.

Ugh, sarcasm? Just pointing out that just because two people can use X-Factor doesn’t mean it’s equal.

Haha pretty much.

My plan for going up against level 3 X-factor is just to block.

No assist no nothing. I’m not risking a double kill for any random reason. With no assist I can see overhead coming pretty easy since the screen is not filled with shit. If they start spamming super for chip then I just super jump and try to wait it out. No point trying to get him with random launcher into death.

I blew so many OCV the first couple days by trying to rush down level 3 X-Factor and ended up 1v1 cause he/she hit the assist.

You can call assists pre-emptively ( or when you get an opening ) … run away vertically if your team can do that ( Chun can’t handle it ) , stall with projectiles/hypers… It’s certainly not a hopeless situation.

I was talking more of the literal dependance and it possibly being overly promiment in every match. It kinda dulls matters down because I dont see a reason to not save it for your last character. Not yet anyways.

I can play defense, rush her down, or let her open me up kill one of my characters and get my new character in, XF and then hold her off with my own juiced up character.

They can both kill you if they land a light attack/jab and follow it up. Sounds equal to me.

Hulk has armour. One misplaced hit leads to more damage than Sentinel here. Just sayin’.

lol

ur the man now, dawg

So what if you should only use it on your last character? It was clearly meant as a comeback mechanism.

When else would you rather use it?
