UMvC3 General Discussion: You can't control it

There’s nothing that goes through it during animation. It’s completely invincible. Bionic Arm doesn’t even go through it IIRC.

It has a cap on how much damage it can absorb. I don’t have the Bible with me right now, but maybe someone who does will enlighten us on the exact number.

250k but it doesnt specify whether thats chip or not. Nonetheless you’d need a fast super so that PW has no time to get evidence and even then, you’ve wasted a bar just to get rid of his shield

Ghost Riders jumping S kills Wright and Maya shield pretty consistently

Super Skrull can command grab through Maya
Akuma can do Lv.3 and go through Maya
X-23 Weapon X prime go through Maya

Maya shield is a good move but not super great

Im not 100 percent on who, but I know certain characters characters can punish his gimlet on block, wesker might be able to, I know dante can if he is on the ground when he fires it, spencer prolly can from the right distance. Plus, if you activate a hyper as the arrow is coming certain hypers avoid the arrow entirely, I saw my friend do it with vergils devil trigger, and while im not 100 percent on why it happened, its something for you to mess around with when you have the chance.

I don’t have the guide on me right now so I can’t give you exact figures but I know that move is very negative on block. You should play him if you like him, he is loads of fun, but I prefer him on point, I predict(and I could be wrong of course) as an anchor he will probably suffer the same fate as anchor cable. A keep away character isn’t very good if the opponent isn’t coming at you, which your opponent prolly won’t do when you have lvl 3 x-factor active. I prefer him on point where he can have drones and peekabo to really make my opponents life hell.

PW is definitely a hot trend online. The strategy I have been seeing a lot is having him on point, collect evidence, hit turnabout mode and tag out. A solid finish if a match goes on long enough.

Fuck hawkeye…

I think I need a change of pants. I just played a fucking VIEWTIFUL JOE online. And he didn’t have a Wesker on his team. Or a Sentinel. or Hawekeye.

Hawkeye and Ghost Rider seem to be the two most used “new” characters, for their ability to mash H/hawkeye greyhound assist. Hawkeye in general however is great regardless.

"Vergil is broken"
How? I’m being serious on this. at least on my end he has a tough time getting in, though to be honest I’m never using him to his fullest. I’m just asking what makes him “broken”, in that I’m assuming there’s a scrub tactic I’m unfamiliar with and not something akin to wesker’s “123” bnb that kills everything.

“Phoenix Wright is used a lot”

Out of 300 matches, I’ve fought 5 phoenix wrights. As someone who still uses Phoenix, I’ve fought even less of her, which is weird coming out of vanilla. Taskmaster still seems frequently used. Seeing more Caps as well.

I wonder if Nemesis can grab through too, though the range is shorter than it seems.

Hell, Hsien-Ko’s Pendulum on point plows through Wright’s shield and into the lawyer. Not to mention teleports, which most of the top tier enjoy.

Speaking of Hsien-Ko, it’s kind of like the fuss over Gold Pendulum in the beginning. It’ll still be good, but overrated because of the effort required to obtain/maintain it. At least that’s my opinion.

And speaking of dealing with problem assists, do people still not SnapBack? It really helps if you want to eliminate a problem assist early. And if you don’t want to deal with that character now/finish off the current character, you can silence the assist with a snap too.

I can attest to this. PW really can’t do shit against Ghost Rider. It’s an awful matchup for him, at least before he gets evidence in trial mode. It’s possible that you can hold your own against GR if you had a knife or photograph in trial mode though.

Definitely not someone who you can reliably Maya shield against.

No lawyer can do shit bout Ghost rider

On the ground it should be punishable on block (I hope…), but I mean the potential of it being able to be used in the air making it unpunishable to most and instant no matter behind, in front, above or below. But I do like Hawkeye and he’ll probably be on my mess around teams. That arrow spam + lockdown/Chip/Slide…/Instant punish super spam especially in XF3 is derpp as hell though lol, but I guess a lot of chars are crazy there.

You can throw Phoenix Wright while he’s in Maya’s shield…Just because TAC is hard to guess, doesn’t make it uncounterable, don’t let Wright leave after he gets his evidence (if you let him get that far…)

And good, this game needs more invincible assists, people are allowed to press buttons far too much

They all ended up in hell because they couldn’t take his trial.

You can grab Wright through it. And thats “all I need!”

Also Shinkuu and stuff can blow her up.

This game just needs an invincible gtfo shoryu that doesn’t lead to ToD combos like we had in mvc2. I dont want to relieve the whol haggar assist thing from vanilla. On topic ah how i miss mvc2 :confused:

Yea the arrow is pretty vicious, I love it sooooo much, especially if you have someone in the back that can dhc into big damage(the arrow itself doesn’t do too much damage), pair that brother with sentinel in the back and any arrow can lead to anywhere between 400k - 600k for 2 bars. Still trying to find the perfect character to dhc into, dr strange seems pretty good since he is the only character that can convert it to damage anywhere on the screen.

Otter, you’re usually the first one to log in. On live anyways, it’ll ask the second person to connect if they have a login also, altho’ you can’t connect to another persons console without it being a HUGE pita. (Edit: namely ‘associating’ the account with the other system, whgich deassociates it with the old one)

 
About PW, I think it's gonna be a while before he's taken seriously, if ever, relying on the RNG and hoping to either get lucky or do some weird TAC setup to get into turnabout is more chances than I'd wanna take in a ocmpetitive setting.

Exactly. Give Ryu/Morrigan etc. invincible DPs that are punishable on block and imo we have a much better game.
