Things you've learned recently

This forum is dead so I figure why not make a recent discoveries thread. I know the xbl warriors are still leveling up and progressing, post up something new*ish that you’ve been working on.

*note- Some of this stuff might not be new to you, it’s mostly variations on combos for max damage without using meter. Hopefully it helps somone.


-storm/mag in corner vs psylocke or mando

dash under as opponent is incoming, s.fp, call mag beam,sjc fk, immediately airdash down whiff fk, small dash s.fp, delay s.fk, sj fp, airdash df fp, delay fk, s.fk.

that combo does rediculous damage for no meter.

a variation of the combo would be

dash under as opponent is incoming, s.fp, call mag beam ,sjc fk, immediately airdash down whiff fk, small dash s.fp, delay s.fk, sj fp, airdash df fp, delay fk, c.lk, c.lp(this pops them up for the corner infinite), jump (lk, neutral mp,mk,fk), rejump and repeat brackets.

that combo will almost kill a character with no meter(depending on health/weight)

using a meter and flying screen deterioration, you can finish with rejump inf, then slp,smp, c.mk( this hits the characters with big vulnerable boxes), s.fkXXstrikeXXsuper


-Same combo idea but a variation for vs sentinel

dash under as opponent is incoming, s.fp, call mag beam ,sjc fk, immediately airdash down whiff fk, small dash s.fp, delay s.fk, sj fp, airdash df fp, delay fk,s.fk

The last hit will pop sentinel up into the air, as soon as you are free to move followup with

->jump straight up airdash df fk+psylocke as sentinel is landing.

for some reason the setup will slide u into the corner, hits the opponent as a crossup/ambiguous, slides u back out of the corner(this part looks wierd) and the psylocke will prevent escape/mashing from sent. I usually repeat the combo if this connects.


-storm/mag corner combo

launch + mag beam, sj fk, airdash down whiff fk, dash s.fp,s.fk, sj fp, airdash df fp, delay fk, s.fk

/\ same combo basically as the first crossup s.fp setup. Use after single overhead or low attack.


-storm/psy midscreen combo

launch + psy, sj fp, airdash down whiff fk, land s.fk, sj fp,airdash fp, delay fk, s.fk


one more storm vs sent midscreen setup

launch, sj fp, airdash df lk,mp, land sj lp XX airdash df float under and behind fp. this will hit him overhead and crossup immediately. (sentinel cannot mash any attacks to prevent this)

edit: if you still have assist available, this setup does a little more with launch + mag beam, sj fp, airdash df lk,mp->followup

you can do at least 5 variations on the above setup, they all break armor, all setup the infinite and are all unmashable. experiment :]

srry if this wall of notation is too ugly for you. I know j360 has all kinds of crap he could share > : []

Nasty :o

Just reading those setups makes my face grin. Ughhh.

I’ve learned that I miss marvel a lot. Would buy a new xbox to play it out here, if the internet wasn’t so shitty.

I was thinkn about ssd vs thrax the other day and I had a really good idea. If strider on point hits storm\sent, you can snap mando in, bird inescapable guard break, infinite. Same with scrub I suppose.

Striders kick teleport does some interesting things. It creates the unblockable, it causes a 50\50, looks damn near impossible to guard cancel.

Good thread. . . So I was playing my low tier team against a Sentinel team. What I learned is that as Ryu, when Sentinel does his drone super, Ryu can LP SRK the first drones and cancel into Air Shinkuu Hadoken to hit Sentinel during his super thus avoiding the ensuing chip damage that would have occurred and hitting Sent with a Super that can be DHC of course.

Since online mvc2 I’ve been working on and have mentioned some stuff here and there regarding the high and low tier teams I play. a lot of stuff involving goofy resets with ironman, ironman combos involving a lot of fierces, air to grounds involving only fierces, air to grounds that require the fewest reps (even only 1 rep in corner at practically top of screen), anakaris assist curse infinites that haven’t been mentioned before, and other general anak goofiness too.

one max damage 5 super DHC that I thought was hilarious:

anak - launch, sj.lp, sj.lk, lpsnakesnapxxcurse super, dhc on third curse to thanos’ power ball (ball will roll up the screen while op is frozen), recover, power ball again (1st power ball should barely be reaching op)xxsonson staff superxxanakaris slap super (dhc once the staff comes back down so that it stays and hits).

your opponent is getting hit by 2 power balls, a giant dildo staff, and being slapped around by anakaris (he don’t want none!) all at practically the same time. :rofl:

derek: you are damn right about texas having some caveman ass internet LOL

don’t play storm much but I’m gonna try those crazy things out later. I’ve seen similar stuff using psy assist at least for the last one. but no assist is noice

damn, I don’t even check the mvc2 boards anymore. hardly

I’ll post some of the stuff I’ve worked on regarding making sure that I can kill 100% (and perhaps even 300%) in certain situations with specific teams without need for resets for example. some of course won’t necessarily be new, but perhaps stuff that people never think about.

Well I ran into something that ruined my match. I got 2 people in the classic tron combo (st.lp, st.lp xxx lunch rush) and only one of them got hit, so I got punished by a RP xxx HSF. Maybe its not new but I never read it before in the forums. shrug

:rofl: :rofl:

Im dying!!!

I must see this.

The frozen effect with the powerballs is interesting in more ways also… after thanos lets the 2nd one go the two will hold for plenty of time for thanos to get up there and tack in a combo… finished with titan crush… that should produce an unrollable OTG if its within a screen distance of the corner… after that you could do lots of stuff… relaunch into something… or just do 3 more powa’s… or combo xx powa DHC’s…

actually you can jump right up after the 1st power ball. the 2nd doesn’t necessarily hold long enough to do such. and yup, already know about what to do if close to the corner.

I sometimes like doing titan crush, falling FK, cr.lp, s.mk (misses), FP throw (if timed right this reset can be very quick), titan crush xx whatever (or if you have anak coffin assist): throw, call anak, dash, cr.lk, st.hk, titan crush, soul

Yeah, two or more people into LR does odd things.

People probably know this by now, but after Tron hits Cable with a drill, he recovers midair and can AHVB her before she can block. There’s a bunch of times/places where Cable AHVB’ing on recovery hits the other person still in recovery.

I’ve been quietly using screen drift for years to hit people with projectiles. With Sentinel flying, SJ up and buster with Megaguy, and as you fall he’ll be screen-dragged into the buster.

screen drift is very useful for curses too. and more deadly. sometimes you can bait them to rocket punch you after throwing a curse…and the punch will affect the screen so that they get cursed. 1 rocket punched anakaris for a cursed sentinel is a fair trade I would say :slight_smile:

In those Titan Crush corner situations I like to OTG just into lk xx bubble plus hulk assist… free corner inf. with your setup anak you will have em high enough… I bet if you whiff dive kick after TC… u can land soon enough to OTG using POWA… which means you can combo bubble for free after. U can also combo SPACE after OTG POWA… pretty much same timing as bubble…

Also something odd with OTG Powa allows you to OTG an unlimited number of times… making cr.lk, cr.mk xx POWA, bubble (repeat)… is a rollable semi-infinite… no one lets you do more than a rep or two w/out rolling… but hot damn there isn’t much left of em to roll by then…

Shenanigans with thanos plus a lot of AAA’s… launcher xx powa + call AAA… pause… powa… similar to your anak setup… anak’s freeze was a nice find to make it bnb instead of shenangigans… most AAA setups don’t leave em as high as anak will…

Super Turbo will never die.

2 tron bonne infinites:

hahah godlike

ughhh, thats nasty?

doesn’t strider have a fucked up ass hit box or something? beats do you know if that works on the top tier cast?

what a crazy fucking infinite and it gave me some ideas

I actually first did it on commando. did about same amount of reps on colossus. I’m pretty sure it works, but it’s very hard to time the shit. when messing around with these infinites I also messed around with ideas for setups and resets and shit (mostly tron/anak/sonson stuff), but not in the vid.

beats with the freshie! 0o
