The Queen of MAHVELL 3!: The Morrigan GD Thread

DS had some weird motions for supers too.

Cryptic Needle!

Didn’t do a whole lot of damage but none of it was recoverable and it was a good fullscreen punish.

Every other super command in that series is some whacked out Raging Demon nonsense.

HK MP LK 2 LP MK HP

Wtf is that shit?

That’s the one! And it could full screen punish instead of soul eraser!

The motions were weird because of the (es I think) moves using up the normal actions.

It’s funny too, I know like none of the names, comes from playing on arcade boxes without decals. Our names for them were awesome tho’!

I’ll just come out and admit that one of the biggest reasons I’m hyped for Hsien-Ko in Marvel is because it means my scrub ass will be able to do Tenraiha on a pad. >_>

I remember one of Morrigan’s specials being something like

F, HP, MP, LP, F

Or something like that. What the hell were they thinking lol?

The context of my statement was what to do instead of Drill Kick when without meter.

Hmm, you sure? I always heard it as “shining”, but it’s Engrish so…

Make it like Megaman’s Rush hyper from MvC2? It would be neat if it synergized with Astral Vision. Have we checked to see if Astral mimics her hypers at all?

Haha, yeah. It was so terrible.

Video? I’ve never heard of it.

:r::lp::mp::hp::r: was finishing shower, if I remember right.

And Karst; I looked for it on youtube, but there’s nothing specific and from the 10 match vids I watched it was like never used.

I just find it really sad that the simplified MvC2 versions of characters have in general become the standard (look at poor Anakeris, or Sentinel for that matter)

Edit: The move was she shot a tentacle out of her arm that impaled them and shot spikes throughout their body. Also gave the poison visual for the duration of the move hit.

Darkness Illusion: LP LP 6 LK HP
Finishing Shower: MP LP 4 LK MK
Cryptic Needle: 6 HP MP LP 6
Astral Vision (VS2): LP LP 6 MP HP

I think Valkyrie Turn was the only super she had that had a normal motion command, lol.

damn my memory >>

But yeah I’m sure I’m right about the other thing. They were all tap motions because of the way supers worked in that game. qcf was the super soul fist, dp was the super shadow blade, etc etc.

You seem to be a bit of an expert, ‘shadow blade’, right? :smiley:

Yeah, it’s Shadow Blade. (It also happens to be unsafe on HIT in some aerial combos in TvC, FYI. Don’t tell anyone.) Lilith’s is Shining Blade.

lol @ expert. My local crew just happens to have been busting out Vampire Savior on weekly game nights recently. We’re all garbage at it though.

EDIT: Also, there are a lot of unused motions that could have been used for supers in Vampire Savior, so I don’t think it’s an issue of the designers having to work around overlapping commands. It’s just a quirk of the game. Morrigan has no QCF/HCF kick commands. I don’t think anyone has reverse SRK commands. Demitri’s Midnight Bliss uses some bizzaro-SRK motion (263) while his super SRK uses the normal motion, so it’s not like they couldn’t have just done stuff like that for everybody if they had to. The one advantage that weird sequential input supers have in that game is that they can be chain comboed into, whereas motion supers cannot.

yeah true. Well except for cryptic needle >>

It is, unless you count the versus series.
also if you hope on ggpo for vsav don’t play it like sf or your gonna get the taunt gallery cause in reality you can’t play darkstalkers like street fighter and expect to get good.

Ah. Well, if you happen to trip over it, I’d appreciate seeing it. I have a vague memory of the attack now that you described it, but nothing’s better than a true visual.

MvC3 has brought back a lot of things for Felicia at least.

I wish I had a local crew, or game nights…

At risk of going offtopic, I’ve always wondered why the FG community is destructive rather than constructive

I think that’s just the internet, i.e. the real soul of people when they can act under the conditions of anonymity.

I found a screenshot of Cryptic Needle. I would love to see that return.

Will Morrigan still have these kinds of mixups like in [media=youtube]9TYRreZW03A[/media]

I like how peeps alwys think we got answers :rofl:

I wish she had that super where she would jet off the screen then fly back in and make you have to guess where she was coming. The would be stupid with assists.

Yeah, that was Valkyrie Turn. Too bad it was always slow as hell coming out and easy to see where it was coming from. All one would need to do is look at which way Morgz would come in at and block her rather than the assist if it even lasted long enough for the super to activate.

It did do massive damage if it hit though.

@ Testament: We don’t know her full mixup potential yet, it’s too early to tell. She does have ambigious crossups, a command throw with good range, and a stupid fast high/low game though. Astral Vision also looks promising.

Fun fact (iirc) Morrigan was SGS’ing before Akuma.

I always thought that move was super lame looking and could never figure out a use for it.

You’ve OBVIOUSLY never used the move before. There are no shenanigans to make Valkyrie Turn not suck.
