Ultimate mvc3 iron man

Since the team building thread what would you think of a Iron Man/Rocket Raccoon/Deadpool team? Probably with Unibeam/Log Trap/Katanarama (or Quick Work) assists. I had a lot of success playing Iron Man on point on my old team I just hated using Sentinel. Though maybe switching Deadpool and Sentinel so Deadpool is anchor would go a long way.

Im thinking about running a Mags/IM team too. I was running doom with missles 3rd today, maybe I’ll stick with that and see how it goes.

I need to test the properties on Protein Cannon though. It does a lot of damage in DHC’s, but for some reason in combos is fails to do much at all. Actually, whats really weird is that in a combo with 600K before super I’ll get more damage out of it than in a combo with 500K before super. Everytime I’ve done the KK combo I’ve never broken 700K without starting with j.S or H. The super does less than 190K. But adding an assist and getting 600k, the super does 230K, like its supposed to. Im really fucking confused.

Joker runs Magneto/Iron Man/Sentinel and he’s arguably one of the best IM players in the world.

For the KK, this might sound dumb, but are you mashing? You really need to be hitting those buttons to get it past 690k.

Also lol Protein Cannon.

I used to be an advocate for IM on point, but I just think he has to deal with too much BS at the beginning of the matcht. It’s my belief that you either have to be able to combo from a throw from anywhere, ToD from a jab, or just completely avoid all the BS that happens at the start of the match through your mobility to be decent on poin. IM can really only accomplish the ToD part. I would probably go with Deadpool (Quick Work)/IM (unibeam)/Raccoon (Log trap) since Deadpool at least has a double jump to avoid most of the beginning of round crap.

I stumbled upon some vid of joker today and became interested in IM as a result. So its pretty funny/awesome for this to be the first thing I see upon clicking the IM thread! Anyway, based on said vids, I wouldn’t want to play tony without sent, but I wanted to ask: if I don’t want mag on point, who else are some of the best abusers of unibeam? I’m sure its pretty useful for almost anyone, but are there any chars who’s cheapness gets fully optimized, or something close to it, from a beam that holds in place? Superficially, wesker come to mind first. Anyone else I should be considering? Thanks!

I was looking back at some of the beta UMVC3 vids, and I noticed something about IM:

[details=Spoiler][media=youtube]zE7P4dKB1YA[/media][/details]His Forward and Back airdash were much faster before.

…why did they not keep that? Thats nova levels of square dashing. God damn it capcom.

Maybe Capcom will buff his air dash in Super MvC3? One can dream…

I see a lot of people are using Dante with IM, now I see why. JS really helps IM control space and even push the opponent towards the corner, and once their in the corner (after getting the opponent to block JS) their dead.

Playing around with x/IM/Dante.

any of you guys wanna help me level up my iron man…hes my fav marvet charcter and i refuse to drop him but i need help. i run arthur(daggers) wolverine(w/e) iron man(unibeam) iron man really helps this team cuz of his asssist and TAC combos. my main problem with him is hit confirming. my tag is deycallmedro if you wanna add me…or send some tips my way…like what should a newbie iron man practice?

Iron Man’s hitconfirms are rough cause of his ass launcher, ABCS will only connect if they are right next to you, which is rare since IM’s not really built to get in dat ass. My advice for hitconfirms is to practice the Krispy Kreme combo. It lets you turn max range cr.M hits into full combos, which makes a huge difference in IM’s game. My tag on XBL is TH3 3NFORC3R X, I need a lot of leveling up too, so feel free to add me and I’ll be more than happy to run some games whenever you’re on.

The speculation towards his changes in UMVC3 was probably the most attention Tony ever got in this game unfortunately. Those days were great.

I only wished for a normal-cancelable dash on top of getting rid of the shitty recovery on his launcher (-30? the fruck?) and Protein Cannon. At least they made his c.H not completely useless.

Good luck playing Iron Man online, if the netplay is anything like PSN the game actually lags whenever you enter flight mode and as a result you’ll miss a lot of combos.

Yeah I gave up on playing random people online to practice, lag makes it just not worth it. But I do feel that playing with other mains of your char can still help, even with lag, you can see and discuss each other’s tricks, patterns, etc.

Any Iron Man players gonna be at UFGT8?

I will be there.

Good shit dude! I’d love to play some casuals and pick your brain about some Iron Man and Doom stuff, if that’s cool with you.

Sounds like a plan to me, I can’t say I have any Iron man mirror matchup experience at all so it’ll be fun to see some Stark vs. Stark, then again why would you ever need it :(.

Your Iron Man is definitely better than mine, but I really don’t think the character is as bad as you think he is.

Currently uploading sets between me and Kei on my channnel, my execution was horribly off the second day and the lag was kinda fing up keis combos.
Also im in a character chrisis…
