Another Marvel Madness video with Iron Fist.
Looks like his St. :l: is machine-gunable, which is always nice for hit confirms.
Another great showing, to beastly once he connects with a hit.
The only Rocket Raccoon assists we know of at the moment are a double projectile assist and the log trap. I hope the net trap is his third.
Wow, any of those two assists sound great. Log Trap probably will be better to stop air approaches, but if you already have a good AAA, then I can see the double shot working.
Oh yeah I keep forgetting about Doom. The thing about hidden missiles though is that the duration is going to open Doom up to some severe punishment so you’re gonna have to be really good at staying next to someone to protect Doom. It could definitely work well though. I’m liking the look of Vajira for the quick and repeated harassment factor.
Iron Fist/Rocket Raccon/Dr. Strange
Team Kung Fu Cosmic Mystic SWAG.
That’s what I’m going to do haha
Gotta admit, dunno what I’m gonna end up with, But I’m so gonna try to make that team work… 3 characters I wanted most in marvel.
Also, people were complaining that flying kick wasn’t invulnerable from the start… as utterly insanely brilliant as it would be to just have him come onscreen mid kick, seeing that he jumps in and THEN does the special, him being hittable for the short time before the special starts isn’t that surprising… It’s still a pretty good GTFO since he seems to come onscreen behind the point character (usually)
Raccoon has this attack where he can crossup even in the corner for crazy resets and mixups, so I think using him on point would be better sou you can crossup and call Rising Fang to a really hard to blockable
I’m using Doom Missiles to keep that little idiot in block stun once I get in one combo and he’s dead. I don’t think RR will be mush of a problem for me but that’s because my main team is Pool/Hawk/Doom.
I still think the RR/ Iron Fist match is fine because once IF gets in RR is dead and with assist like hidden missiles it won’t be hard. RR will have to play perfect for quite awhile because in all his vids he doesn’t look like he does alot of damage.
RR will have to rely on his distance game because IF will have way better priority on everything up close I’m sure. I think getting in won’t be a problem with IF’s amazing wave dash and a nice cover assist.
Yeah but Doom missiles take long to come out, what’s to stop Raccoon from burrowing underground to avoid it completely? Ground traps and projectiles are gonna slow Iron Fist down as well so you can’t just wavedash all day. Not to mention, Raccoon’s air mobility shits on IFs and he’s a tiny character so landing clean grounded hits on him will be a mission in itself. All of that is not even taking into account the assists RR will have to back him up.
All I can see are bad games from Raccoon :shake:. At least if we touch him once, he’ll die.
I can switch to my Deadpool/Task/Doom team and kill him quickly if need be. But really Doom missiles is worth it because of how it knocks RR out the air and will pin him down for enough time to mix him up.
Can’t we use the Dragon kick to cover space quickly anyway? RR’s hyper hit low so the kick will go right over it really and it has at least some invul on it plus IF’s hyper fist of fury has some kind of invulnerability on it and decent range as well so it’s not this helpless battle at all imo. RR isn’t super fast either he’s not slow but he can’t teleport so he’ll have to rely on super jump to escape which isn’t great.
IF plus Missiles or Hawk arrows = danger for RR and potential happy birthdays imo. I feel so many are underrating Iron Fist when he’s gonna be a reset character killing beast when the game develops.
Edit: how long can RR stay borrowed? I’m guessing not to long because that’d be annoying and cheap as hell lol, not mention a muuch bigger prob for IF.
Doesn’t ironfist have an invincible start up hyper? I hear RR has low health so he might just be worth that Hyper X-factor hyper if the matchup is tha tmuch of an issue, or maybe even a dhc chain.
its not invincible on startup, sadly
You can’t do Dragon kicks raw. You have to cancel into it from a rekka and I don’t think you can do it on whiff. Even if you could, you’d just be whiffing shit from full screen to get Dragon Kicks which will get you killed. Fists of Fury is only temporarily invincible after the flash IIRC so you have to be just in front of them to blow through anything with it. To put it simply; it’s no Bionic Arm.
Raccoon doesn’t need to super jump to escape at all imo. “ROC-ROCKE-ROCKET SKATES” in addition to burrowing and floating will make him hard to catch without a good assist.
Well fuck it then he can try beating my awesome Deadpool/Tasky/Doom team then. I ain’t got time to be dicking around wit no burrowing shit.
He’ll just be a bad match then but not that bad because one mistake and he’s dead because IF hit hard as fuck and RR has bitch health so it’s not that bad, IF need to be weak somewhere.
in the most recent marvel madness, maximillian did :lp: rekka whiff into dragon fang, so at least you can do that.
That’s pretty insanely telegraphed though, ‘hey look, I’m doing a point blank special across the room for no reason, really!’
Precisely my point lol. It’ll sure be fun figuring out these matchups, I’ll tell you that.
i dont think Rocket skate has a hit box
if thats the case RR cant just skate his way in on anybody
