The Queen of MAHVELL 3!: The Morrigan GD Thread

What are morrigan’s best assist characters? I’ve seen some say x-23 for OTG assist but anything else?

OTG and/or low assists help a lot, considering that she’s in the air a lot and doesn’t have much of an OTG game by herself.

Anyone else having trouble with :m: shadow blade knocking them too high for finishing shower to connect at times

imo she doesn’t really need an OTG assist
unless there’s some lengthy ass combos that can be derived from it

for approach you want something like doom rocks, akuma tatsu, sent drone (lol), et cetera.
the way i see it is that if you have an assist that takes awhile to be done with, you have more room to pressure them. If they decide to advance guard, most of the time you can get back in with ease. I’ve seen times when approaching with j:s: and i’ll get pushed back nearly full screen lol.

MODOK barrier assist is hilarious in the corner if you can get the timing right.
Can’t be hurt + in their face. They try to press a button, free combo. Don’t press anything? free grab or vector drain
Stupid naki technology. nyahahaha

I can see unblockables being done easily with felicia and wesker assist.
Viper too, if you want to go low.

Having Trish on your team with hopscotch assist makes locking people down pretty simple. That with Astral vision and some well placed soul fists, they really are gonna have fun trying to get out.

Dude, the fact that i know where your avatar is from makes me feel a tad bit dirty to be quite honest.

Isn’t it like…Hell Knight Ingrid? I don’t see how you’re surprised, considering what thread you’re in.

lol, oh im not surprised that he is using it, im disappointed in myself for actually knowing where its from is all. But yea u do raise a good point.

You mean wesker’s samurai edge otg assist?

EDIT:

Does j.M mean while jumping press medium?

Yes.

Anyone else having problems with Morrigan’s 10th mission?

I can’t seem to land the flying light attack like… ever.

Strategy guide says you have to cancel M Shadow Blade earlier than the others in order for that to combo.

Does Morrigan have any invincible fame start up in her shadow blade as an assist?

Last I checked she did.

mirror image activate: A fireball > fly > C fireball > unfly x infinty as fast as you can

have fun with that, shit gets crazy when like one or two fireballs miss or connect and you get off rhythm with your clone, complete lockdown sometimes. Mash sent assist while its going on? and why not, if your clones fireball comes out, it wont disappear even if you get hit. And If someone tags in onto the fireballs its actually possible to bounce them on fireballs/assists for a combo, i know i got up to 9+ hits without changing my pattern. Just a matter of them falling right.

ALSO

can combo off her lvl 3 Hyper, pick up with (magneto shockwave lookin) 623 super, no x-factor or DHC needed

yeah you can combo into her shadow servant after DI. Adds some decent enough damage.
Timing seems kind of weird, though.

The guide says it doesn’t have any invincibility, either on point or as an assist. It’s still fast enough and has a generous enough hitbox to be decent, though.

Damn, they took it out? Didn’t it have invincibility in the test builds?

Yeah it did =[

Pretty sure it had some invincibility in earlier builds, but whether it did or not doesn’t matter anymore since there is indeed a window(albeit small) to knock Shadow Blade out of startup and you can hit her on recovery(after the animation but before she lands). Good thing the range is quite nice.

It’s still a good assist to use to keep people in check though. Especially against jump happy people and flyers.

Range on it is good. It’s that, plus the speed makes it easy for me to do :uf: j.:s:, land, Rocket Punch-:l:, Plasma Storm with Sent off it. Unlike with Ryu’s Shoryu where the opponent needs to be real close (and the timing real tight) for the combo to work properly.
