I plink dash on pad. Grind everything that you learnt with Mags out again to mold it into stick muscle memory. Why did you switch from pad to stick? If u don’t mine me asking
I just could never get plink dashing down on pad. And I started realizing that I was losing a lot of matches–not from bad decisions, dropped combos (mostly lol), or even because my opponents were leagues better than me, but because of movement. Not being able to move correctly is a serious problem in this game. If you can’t escape from a corner in Marvel or avoid bad situations in general, you’re screwed. The other thing is that I’m hearing that apparently his “higher level” tech isn’t practical on pad. I’m certainly not high level but I’d be really irritated if I ended up advancing greatly with him on pad but then maxing out because I never made the switch.
Well look at Alioune. He has nearly optimized combos, top tier, movement, and always using top level tech.
Even though he had phoenix on his team he did the tac dash cancel tac that people usually use against phoenix just to build some more meter.
I’d mention Fanatiq but he’s not doing anything that impressive he’s just a ridiculous player.
Finally got up to date on this thread. A lot of good tech and information throughout and probably will be more to come hopefully, Any new people picking up Mags should read this whole thread. Shoutouts to all the Magneto regulars on this one
On the possibility of a patch, viscant suggested that magneto’s only nerf should be his chainable st.L. Couple tgat with Fgtvs suggestion of nerfing his crL and stL chaining on whiff.
How would you feel about this slightly nerfed magneto?
I feel like he’s stupid fair in uktinate. Long gone are the days when I thought he was broken, and I feel like those nerfs would make him fair-er and remove that last bit of derp that he still might have.
Thoughts?
RayRay said the other day he wanted Magneto to be less scrubby lol.
No more mashable st.L
Change hitbox of j.H so it will crossup less
Increase startup of flight mode slightly so you can punish cr.LMH xx fly blockstrings
Less frame advantage on block for mag blast
You shouldn’t be able to instantly block after mag blast
I don’t really mind any of these changes, I don’t really abuse st.L, addf j.H, or autopilot my blockstrings.
I wouldn’t mind any of these but if I had to keep them I’d like to have crossup h or mashable st.L they are very situational but nice to have.
Couldn’t you already punish that block string if you don’t pushblock? Or does it require X-Factor? I thought you just have to do a st.l with most characters after Magneto cancels into flight. Obviously with assists, it’s harder to punish.
I’d like to keep the chainable st.l. I don’t mind the other changes, provided that st.h doesn’t get neutered. 
I dont fuck with that magnetic blast double change at all. Decreased blockstun AND recovery on the ground? nah.
Also, I think you can punish cr.lmh xx fly S, but cr.lmh xx fly xx unfly is safe/harder to punish.
crLMH Fly S is a frame trap(if you cancel the crH asap you can’t even throw Magneto out of it) but is punishable by invincible moves or if pushblocked early and whiff punished.
crLMH fly unfly is safe.
Shame to see Rayray truly lose his mind. I guess anyone would after ZMC lays hands on them during the big show. If Magneto loses all that everyone should. Don’t know why Nova, Spencer, etc should be able to confirm off L mash but it’s an issue if Magneto does it.
Well that’s why both Nova and Spencer are scrubby characters lol.
I think he just wants less fraudulent strategies being used since they’re so abusable, but that’s how Marvel works.
That’s why WE have to come up with more shit to counter the bullshit that already exists just like how niggas did back 6 years ago in mvc2
So this is a thing now:
I’m loving the swag at the end. Good information bro mags!
Cancelling blockstun with his magnetism thingies has already been known.
Yeah but I haven’t seen a detailed video explanation like this one. I found it very helpful.
So does this mean that Magneto is the only character in the game that doesn’t have to just accept the round trip glitch from Vergil? That’s a big deal.
Why do people always come up with the funkiest names for this stuff…
it’s a Guard/Block Cancel.
Magnetic Glitch of Block Nullification v2…
Also, should’ve shown how it punishes wesker st.S and some other safe stuff.
I appreciate the reminder of the block cancel glitch. The demonstration on Vergil pressure is especially relevant. I should go online and just force myself to block cancel something every time I have bar.
I’ve been messing with this and frankly it just seems like a good way to get you killed. With the button mash mentality most players have timing the repulsion into super or whatever is too difficult and will likely lead to a free combo.
