I don’t put much faith in Lupinko, but if you are the type of person who does, I would just warn you not to get your hopes up.
We have no reason not to. He was right about everything what, four times now?
The man knows his stuff. Sure, he could be trolling, but he never gave us reasons to believe so.
Wolverine will be different. From the changes, he looks a lot like Skrull or Spencer to me – can’t mash, isn’t godlike, isn’t invincible all the time but has some really interesting and really powerful tools and mobility options.
Everything about this says ‘better character.’ Not ‘more powerful,’ but ‘better.’ More like this please.
its just nice to know there is still a chance for more characters to be in this. im actually more excited for new characters to come than seeing my character i want to be in. but still would be nice.
Berserker Slash? Akuma was only half of the Wolverine/Akuma rape machine.A 50/50 mixup shouldn’t be that easy to get. Did you watch Evo? There were a ton of instances where he was controlling the midscreen with the threat of that move alone.
Ha ha, just imagine. Capcom are scheduled for their last set of reveals. At this point it’s a check list. Every leaked character has slowly been grinded out, and the final pair have made their debut… but the trailer keeps going. Suddenly, Gambit.
i didn’t read ur post right. im sorry.
If lupinko hadn’t said anything and this happened I’d have a heart attack. It would’ve been the biggest surprise ever.
Don’t forget **UNACCEPTABLE!! **It has one punish and that’s X-factor. If you don’t have that on deck, good luck, buster. Beserker Slash is much worse, but that dive kick is pretty damn good.
yeah he controls that portion of the screen well with the threat of zerk slash but you can opt to stay out of it and zone him with alot of characters… if he wants to combo off that slash he has to berserker charge and wont be able to build any meter off the hit. unless of course his homeboy has his back… i know you can do it with other assists but then it as easy cuz most other assists dont go as far/are so easy to confirm off of/have projectile nullifying properties.
i want logan to be good like i want every character to be good just because it creates interesting gameplay… take away his xfactor cheese and his zerk slash game… then whats he left with? seth said himself the changes from mvc2 to mvc3 logan werent major ones but then they castrate him like they did… just seems overdone imo
im no expert or pro tho, just sharing my thoughts and im glad to hear anyone elses
What he’s left with:
Intense mobility – for raw crossup potential even then Berserker Slash just as good as Jill “Fastest Character” Valentine
Strong damage – Once he’s in, Wolverine has some absolutely nasty things he can do to you, including comboing into Weapon X or, if it stays, TC FC loop.
High intensity pressure – if he’s in on you, Wolverine leaves very few opportunities for you to have him not be in on you.
I’m OK with this.
Oh, come on. He could very well be referring to the characters whose gameplay we have yet to see.
Add the nerfs to Wolverine + Swiss cheese = No more mashing/easy to play
I’m totally okay with this.
As with Phoenix, players have to actually learn how to play with her. X-factor is still a problem with her, but it still a little early to tell.
Overall, no more herp-derp as far as I can tell.
On that note, Phoenix changes looking interesting. Everyone is terrified of losing tricky ball mixups, but that interesting stuff on Evo stream with traps will probably stay. Look for Confusing Trap Shit to replace Ball Mixup Shit.
they nerfed his speed and hp too, watching evo… all the wolverines who didnt blow xf1 to kill 2 people were good but not totally shitting on people… he isnt broken hes just too easy to play and he can abuse broken mechanices better than everyone except jean
i was hoping to see tc fc loop on stream but i guess in retrospect that was silly to expect
Raw movement speed buff won’t change his pressure game irreparably IMO. Horror of horrors, we’ll actually have to find different technology, and he won’t show up in like 40% of top 8 teams.
It’s like we’re actually going to be playing a rebalance.
you do have valid points and its always nice to see a reign of terror ending… but i still stand my ground that without xf1 bs logan is A tier with dante mags wesker etc. and the combonation of nerfs to the systems that made him op as well as nerfs to his toolset and nerfs to his stats as a character are way to far in the right direction (if that makes any sense)
You can’t remove XF1 BS from Wolverine any more than you can remove XF3 from Phoenix. It is part of the character as stands.
To whit: “If you remove Wolverine’s divekick, he’s A-B tier with Spiderman and Hulk!” Is it true? Yes. Is it something you can remove without radically changing what the character is and what the game is? Not really, no.
Spencer’s like the only exception I can think of though. I mean, listen to the others…
“SUPER LEGENDARY…BANG! BANGBANGBANG! BANGBANGBANGBANG!!!”
“Take Notes!”
- Deadpool
“It is MY turn now!”
“Consider this over!”
- Storm
I say leave it as is…
im not suggesting in the slightest to remove it, im just observing that xf1 is what elevates him to godhood and thinking after thats taken away, what good reason is there to just nerf him other than lots of people are salty that logan kills two characters in less than 10 seconds (with xf1).
