The Ultimate Magnus Thread. The godlike stuff

I didn’t watch FR but I did see the archives and saw him in the team tourney. Saw nothing of his Magneto though, it was just Wesker wrecking shop.

haha yeah sadly he didn’t get to play on stream much.
but yeah Sami is Georgia’s Bum. He bodies all our guys, but he doesn’t enter anything lol.

sick team in the works with this mag/storm/morrigan. also gonna upload some more stuff to my youtube this weekend since nothing is distracting me this time.

Is there any footage of Magneto against Captain America? It seems stupid but I have lots of problems against this character, specially when he is backed up by Unibeam.
Also I’m in love with Magneto + Eye of Agamotto assist. The stationary orb does wonders in terms of mixups, but lacks in terms of damage due to scaling. That’s why I’m considering changing my order to Magneto/Doom/Strange instead of Magneto/Strange/Doom, then I could TAC into Doom for some infinite. But Bolts is a better assist for Doom then. I’m so confused O.o
For a stylish Swagneto + Eye of Avocado assist try regular Hyper Grav loop (H only one) > HG > sj add > air H > H > Call Strange > HG > GRABITATION!! > H > S > TAC or finish

For X23, EoA stays out long enough that you can do S+EoA sj.H TA L (bounce on top of Eye) s.S sj.H TA L (bounce on eye) s.S > rest of combo. Seems like you should be able to do some nice troll shit like S+EoA xx TK gravitation loops.

@guiarroyos You dont need to change your order to TAC into slot 3. You just need to use your Agamotto assist midcombo, wait till strange goes offscreen and Doom’s “ASSIST READY” flashes, next to his character portrait and TAC at that point, before Strange’s own “ASSIST READY” flashes.

Yes I know about this, but if you confirm from Eye or Bolts you can’t use it again inside the combo D: Then I need to spend Strange’s Level 3 to kill higher health characters.

just wanted to say thank you to all the regulars and “new comers” for keeping our threads alive and well during the 2 years this game has been out. keep up the good work everyone!

@guiarroyos: oh yeah you’re right. Doesnt strange have a TAC infinite?

Also if you see maziodyne ask him for some tips because he mained that team (mag strange doom)

Anyone know of a good set between two high level players, one running point mags and one running point vergil? I’m comfortable with the matchup, but I need to be ready to make it through the waves of point helmbreaker + wesker pistols… derp happens.

Hmmm… Ray vs Flux, FGTV for the magneto+vergil fest (both on the same team and against each other), not a lot more. Fanatiq basically never plays outside of tournaments now.

You can catch RayRay vs flux on House of Crack archives for a few sets. However, both magneto and vergil are on the second slots, so I don’t know how much of that match-up you get to see.

Does anyone play point Vergil except for Andre?

Doesn’t Wenrich & Padtrick play a lot of point Vergil?

Winrich plays Wolverine/Doom/Vergil IIRC and Padtrick fell off the planet.

Thanks for the suggestions kanta, I’ll see what I can gather from those sets.

Being a vergil player (imagine that) I really frown on point vergil. But it doesn’t make him any less viable, and I intend to be ready for him. Thanks everyone for the ideas.

Killer Kai uses point Vergil now also. He’s the only other top player that mains point Vergil. Clockwork was doing point Vergil on the side for a bit…but that’s about it.

Any recent footage of him against a point Magneto? I can’t find any on stream =/

Doubtful, you could try looking over TRB footage since Helix and Snaketits play there.

I’ll try that.

Sadly no viable TAC infinite was discovered for Strange yet… but it’s ok, normal TAC into level 3 works when you need a character out of the fight.
I’m using the 3 Strange’s assists for now, even the Daggers of Denak, it tracks and it leads into some nice incoming mixups.
