I agree with everything but the fact that you said disruptor>plasma beam. I would rather have plasma beam. Disruptor might be faster but once that plasma comes out, there’s no way in hell you can beat its durability points. I’m also a little iffy on the gravity moves. I know they will find their ways to becoming broken somehow, but it’s rather difficult because the moves are slow as fuck. The moves are godlike for playing with corpses though.

I think Missiles already provide decent coverage against Teleports with how Morrigan plays. If she’s up in the air throwing fireballs and someone does a tracking teleport onto her, there’s a good chance Doom will be launching missiles up into them from below, or Missiles will be coming back down from earlier.

I’d add that I think you’d really want a comeback character in your second slot. That could be Doom with the right assist (like Vajra, Drones or a beam or something), or it could be someone else entirely supported by Doom’s missiles.

If the whole “Morrigan with Missiles” approach fails, you don’t want another slow grinding neutral game character in that second slot. You’re down a character at this point and the onus is on you to get in there and run it back. I think that’s a better approach than putting all of your eggs in the “keepaway/spam” basket.

I dunno. None of his assists seem overwhelming. I have him first and if he tags out, I’ll chuck a voomerang assist now and then. But missiles Morri (or missiles Joe) is the star.

11564

Theres no WSO until mid january probably.

11565

Probably because Bionic Arm isn’t hype anymore.

11566

Winner, winner! Chicken dinner!

Also you gotta add that Inferno doesn’t just come outta nowhere - it’s the Meteor Smash that gets the hype going. The hype increases cause you know anybody that it hit is about to get bodied.

speakin of gtfo assists, chun li’s lightning legs assist seems more viable this time around. i remember people abusing it before mvc3 came out but after people found out tron and haggar, chuns assist went into obscurity.

but now since all invincible assists are nerfed, chuns assist might actually be a decent gtfo assist now.

theres also hulks gamma charge anti air assist but that means you have to use hulk last. we all know akuma >> hulk as anchor.

The problem is that those second 8 hits will scale near identically to the third 8, fourth 8 etc cause of minimum scaling. This means that a character like Zero can do First 8 hits=400K, second 8=200K, third 8=200K :frowning:

That Nini Heart lady makes some scary combo videos. Why you gotta break Doom, Nini Chan?

Nini Chan is my new favorite trap on SRK.

Demon Hyo was rockin’ legs assist on the Break this week. Worked well for him, he got to 4th place. I didn’t get to see Chun herself in action very much, though…

Didn’t the assist’s priority get increased?

11572

I once tried doing three jump loops with Hsien-Ko.

I remember she ended up dying instead :frowning:

11573

her legs priority got increased and i’d assume that her assist goes along with that.

11574

legs is good but got overshadowed by tatsu,tron,haggar

it was just as good as cold star

11575

The legs priority increase was a typo. I remember talking to somebody who knew Japanese before the game came out and they said it was a mistranslation. That the actual wording was that the priority was decreased. At least when I was playing against Unknown’s Chun Li I noticed the hit box for legs just wasn’t as crazy as it used to be. They were still good but the legs priority just doesn’t seem as oppressive as it did in Vanilla. Everything else she got was buffs including what is basically a meterless GTFO me move so they reduced the hit box on the legs in return.

It was always a decent assist it’s just now there’s an actual reason to pick Chun Li with her buffs.

Just watched the chris G vs pie, damn that shit was so lame. I’m really glad i’m a Zero player

11577

Makes me wanna play a super lame Morrigan against someone I know who plays a rushdown Morrigan :slight_smile:

11578

funny cause i actually felt as if the priority had been decreased. seemed that it got stuffed a bit more than usual and as if it didnt hit from quite as far away. anywho… makes perfect sense in hindsight.

I guess the flavor of the week is that Chris G team. God I hate fighting morrigan. Well I hate fighting any odd under used characters because of the wonky “wtf is he doing” BS.

How do you guys propose that team is beat out?

Vortex and Thunderbolt Ruin Morrigan pretty hard. Optic blast destroys Doom summons and fireballs, certain teleport characters can keep her from starting to do what she wants, etc. It can be obnoxious though!
