The Ultimate Magnus Thread. The godlike stuff

Allright guys, I need help with two things:

Welcome mixups and Resets.

Someone help a brother out.

My team is Dante(Magnus)/Magnus(Dante)/Iron Man.

Dante and Mags are interchangeable, hence the parentheses.

Honestly, you’re better off using Dante’s assist for Magneto’s mix-ups than Ironman’s assist. Beam assists don’t really do much for Magneto. Dante’s weasel shot, however, is pretty solid. Check out my mix-up reset thread and apply dante’s weasel shot to those scenarios

Does the combo work midscreen? or only in the corner ? If so, what’s his max dmg bnb midscreen… is that the one with j :m: :h: :l: m.blast ?

It works fullscreen and as far as I know is his highest damaging BnB without any corner loops.

God damn it this shit happened to me again in some sets with my friend earlier today. I’m gonna ask desk why this shit happens lol

I can’t use Magneto anymore, everytime I ADDF or backwards with him, I cringe and my fingers stop working.

pussy lol

Does anyone have a way of mashing Gravity Squeeze for max damage without turbo?

Stick or pad? I usually get up to about 90hits when i fully mash on GS. In a combo of course

Stick. I tested with turbo. Gravity squeeze raw is 60 hits mashed with turbo. I can get around 35.

what i do is when after a combo into mashable super, i take my index finger on my left hand and then use my index and middle to mash
(this is my setup btw;
L M H
S 1 2)

Thats the same setup I use. Do you get the full 60 hits off Gravity squeeze? I’m just looking to see the best mash for gravity squeeze.

Yeah, every single time (even when it’s not necessary lol)

bloodabeast, I’ve got a possible addition to the tactics/dirty shit section.

One of the hardest things about Magneto for new players is converting stray hits into full combos, and I’ve spent the past couple hours in the lab grinding out converting to full combos at normal jump height. I’ve been using Fanatiq’s j.:h: j:s: addf :h: but last night I was having a crack session with one of my nigs and it got me to thinking.

How do I capitalize on this when they block? What series should I do when I eyeball the height and see Fanatiq’s conversion won’t work?

I’ve found some pretty promising stuff, I’ll keep this post updated or PM you when I’ve done more research

Do you have a way to capture how you mash it. I can get up to 40 now doing the same setup.

I was just playing my friend and I did the following corner combo on his last character, SooMighty style.

s.:l: :s: sjub :h: addf :h: :qcf::a1:, :qcf::a1:, c.:l:, c.:m:, c.:h:, :s: sjub :h: addf :h:, s.:h: :qcb::l: :qcb:2:atk:

oh god I’m fanboying myself so hard right now

My mother has a camera I can use, but I’m trying to figure out how to get footage of like my hands and the combo simultaneously.

Tips anyone?

Take video of one, then the other, then picture in picture that shit meng. Make it fancy, with borders and jazz music and star wipes.

No star wipes, but yeah, magneto videos need jazzy stuff. It’s become the staple, for some reason.

I’m gonna try to do that sometime on monday as long nobody does anything similar.
