The Ultimate Magnus Thread. The godlike stuff

Same here… I stopped using him for the moment while playing with other chars. He just doesn’t feel right and I don’t want to adapt yet.

Ammy is still good but nobody is willing to give her time :frowning:

I’ve adapted but he still feels very weird sometimes

Clocks knows how dog works.

For the sake of consistency, I don’t think jH adf jM xxfly jL jHx5 should be his full screen BnB anymore, if only for the fact that if you connect after an assist (especially a lockdown one like Missiles, Cold Star, or Tatsu), it seems to always drop during the fly animation due to jM. Even then jH addf jH cH st.S jH adf jH jS does more damage and is easier. I’ve gotten jH addf jH cH stS jH adf jH xxfly jL jHx5 to work once but I can’t seem to replicate it.

I’m gonna man up and get that Alioune blast combo down 100%.

I’m finding that the more I adapt the more bitter I get about shit not working anymore.

Yeah I’ve been working on the blast combos since Umvc3 came out.

Not to mention they look so much better.

I’ve actually been thinking of running your team but everytime I use Strange, I forget he doesn’t have an airdash and get blown up haha.

Sadly, Doom works better on this team than Magneto, IMO. New HSD fucks with EM Disruptor assist.

I did my first alioune BnB online today.

The world is beautiful.

Okay I got this team going on in my head and it’s going to be nuts I think;

Magneto-A
Doom-B
Dr.Strange-B

Alright now I know what you fuckers are think (maybe) “Why the fuck is Strange on anchor?” Well I’ll tell you: IP loops x Spell of Ashanti + any level x-factor = Prepare to read a book mother fucker.

Even then the order can change. For instance I’ll do some random derp combo with magnus, then gravity mash and hard tag into Strange. Lay down x2 Yellow(one in the air and one on the ground), call in missiles/teleport( :h: ) :qcb:+:h: (which causes a cross up + a crumple state) then impact loops for days.

I’m gonna perfect this and record it for you guys cause I believe this is some (very) top tier technology I’m working on here.

Doom is gay in this game, so go for it.

He went from being a character I had the utmost respect for, to being icky as fuck. Why would you give a character with a self OTG into combo, a dive kick that causes a hardknockdown? Unscaled combos for days. Not to mention his throws, but that was ok with me.

I’d let doom anchor and put Ds 2nd.

Seriously, you have all the time in the world to convert after a j.S, and it always leads at over 700+ damage with barely any execution required.

Agreed, I was trying some of my old tactics with Magneto/Wesker and it wasn’t working so well. It worked, but it was definitely more difficult.

Is there any room in the world for our man Magnus?

I was thinking the same thing but Doom as anchor. Dr. Strange is a capable anchor but he’s so much better with an assist.

Prove me wrong and me love you long rime.

Fuck it, me love you long time either way <3

How the hell do you do alioune’s combo in umvc? The j.H always pushes them so far away.

is there any possible way to combo with the new moves. I tried everything but they seem to force a neutral state minus using it to get more hits of shockwave… pretty dissapointing =/.

Not assistless, but its really an area that hasn’t been explored very much.

RayRay has some good stuff here:

that is awesome ty for link

Updated OP with Frame Data plus notes (straight from the new testament) & more shit on the way. Love you Aerial <3 lol

Hey guys, I’m having a bit of trouble getting the Alioune Blast loop down. The buttons I’m using are

tridash j.:s: cr.:h: st.:s: xxsj j.:h: adf j.:h:xx Magnetic Blast:l: land, normal jump j.:h: xx Magnetic Blast:l:, land, cr.:h: st.:s: xxsj j.:h: adf j.:h:xx Magnetic Blast:l:, land, normal jump j.:m:j.:h: Magnetic Blast:l: st.:s: xxsj j.:m::m::h::s:

I can get the first two blast loops down perfectly fine but the second j.:h: adf j.:h: xx Magnetic Blast:l: whiffs or the blast goes underneath the opponent. Even using the medium and heavy variants won’t connect. Is there a certain trick to getting this? I’m pressing j.:h: almost immediately after I superjump cancel.
