The Queen of MAHVELL 3!: The Morrigan GD Thread

We need some videos if possible, this sounds sexy as hell

It will be pretty hard to make a video of it since I don’t have a camera here.

I’ll see what I can do though, it’s one snazzy looking combo.

Perhaps this was covered, but if Finishing Shower is used during Astral Vision, does the double summon missiles?

No, using any other Hyper immediately cancels Astral Vision.

I’m probably going to feel really dumb after asking this but… how do I do Morrigan’s Deep Crescendo? It doesn’t appear to be on the command list yet I need to do it for one of the missions.

Forward C

Did you post the damage of DI being 405K?

No, but thanks for the heads up.

You can combo into finishing shower by using H shadow blade that Finishing shower pointed up.

Wow, the info that’s getting put up now that we’re close to release is making Morrigan sound better and better :smiley:

what would you say are morrigan’s pro’s and cons??

Took out some older shizz and added some new ones. Keep the info coming boys.

I’m going to try some combos using Deep Crescendo today, it seemed promising.

You forgot to remove j.:d::m: j.:d::m: from a couple of combos. That input doesn’t work, after a j.:m: you can either use j.:h:, j.:s: or a Special/Hyper.

Can’t think of any cons aside from having slightly below average health. Miss Aensland looks terrific. I feel she won’t be needing any specific assists to work.

EDIT -

Here’s a X-Factor CKC without Astral Vision:

3 Meters, a bit over 1.050.000 damage in Lvl 1 X-Factor, over 1.300.000 damage in Lvl 3, works anywhere. Sexy.

Also, :f::h: - Jump - j.:m: j.:h: j.:s: - Land - :m: :s: can be applied to any BnB for extra meter. Doing a BnB with it ending with Finishing Shower turns a 1 meter combo into a meterless 1-meter combo, and you barely lose any damage. You can also add a :h: before launching, but it gets complicated depending of the spacing and how long you take to cancel into a launcher.

I finally understand why people were calling this game a Fighting Sandbox. I never had as much fun in training mode as I am having right now.

EDIT 2 -

OH BOY OH BOY! Just tested the differences between different strengths for Vector Drain. Each strength gives less range for more damage, Vector Drain :l: doing less/having more range and :h: doing more damage/less range.

That being said, Vector Drain :l: has insane range - considering she isn’t a grappler. It’s around 3 background squares in the training stage, and around the range her standing :m: hits. It does 120.000 damage, and you can tick it for some mixups.

I think this is Morrigan’s best incarnation ever.

The lack of a real dash takes a little to get used to. But it seems feasible to work around.

Her dashes are sexy. Another good thing about Astral Vision is that corner combos become possible midscreen since pushback is not a factor when using it.

Also, I’m wondering how she will fare against some of the popular characters like Dante, Storm, and Sentinel. I don’t think we will have much to worry about and I hope I am right on this.

I also think she will be completely fine. She’s more mobile than ever, and she has a solid damage output. You can go combo-video-mode on big characters like Sentinel, specially with Astral Vision.

damn that sounds awesome. i was lurking around threads and after my one day experience with this game i was thinking of having morrigan, dante and ammy as my team. i dont know how good that is, but i was also thinking about wesker, storm, taskmaster, sentinel as well on my team. maybe chun because im liking chun, but not sure if she’d be good for the team. i know little to nothign about vs games so i cant really decide. anyone other recommendations on the combinations?

Some interesting info I found out:

You can cancel any normal and special into flight. Shadow Blade - Flight - Shadow Blade is actually possible. Now I just need to find a practical use for this :rofl:

I haven’t seen this talked about for as long as I’ve been creeping this thread, so I’ve been wondering; can shadow servant be used in a similar way to magneto’s magnetic shockwave hyper? ie. end an air combo with j.:s: land and go into shadow servant. If so maybe some testing should be done to see some combo’s ending in shadow servant as apposed to finishing shower and see how they stack up.

Yes, you can. The thing is that Shadow Servant is garbage in the corner. Use it if you want to carry the opponent to the corner.

Canceling specials into flight sounds neat. One thing I am disappointed about flight mode is that you can’t call assists after super jumping and activating it. That threw some of my ideas with Dante’s Jam Session out the window.

My teams with Morrigan are Morrigan/Sent/Phoenix and Morrigan/Ammy/Dante so far.

Edit: I also like Trish and Morrigan together.
