First time I took Morri online at all I couldn’t Soul Fist because I canceled into flight too fast. That was fucking miserable. I was impressed overall how good my connection was too you, only ever felt the online delay at the start of round and on incoming really. I’m approaching nearly 1k hours of offline time logged into IMvC3, and probably about 600 of that is Morrigan in training mode, and you hit combos I still can’t even come close to.
The always horizontal arrows was funny as hell, especially when I stood up into it once with Wesker because I thought you’d finally get it right and I wanted to jump it.
Best moment was Darkness Illusioning an EX Seismo though.
The thing with Shuma is, if it’s just Shuma, I can handle him. Shuma+fast assist though and I start to feel helpless as shit, especially with Wesker. Morrigan I can usually at least get space, if not accomplish much. I’m pretty sure tihs comes down to my main team having slow or ridiculously risky assists, I did a lot better when I slapped Hawkeye on, and I can’t complete a Hawkeye combo for shit, and can barely play his neutral.
Oh, and I never had any fucking clue what you were doing with Sentinel. None of that shit made sense.
LOL. . . I was just spitting and picking one of the assist buttons then flying doing a normal and unflying. Sentinel+vajra is ridiculously underrated. It is so good for sentinel.
Most people tell me they have trouble with my shuma because of the mobility. I’ve practiced plink dashing so much that I can do it as fast as possible with about 90% consistency. I’m just easily able to traverse the screen, and I’ve played doom+shuma since month 3 of vanilla, so I’m pretty solid with knowing every possible in and out for using plasma beam as him. Then once I get in, I mash the shit out of standing h+ coldstar. Once you’re in blockstun, it’s over really. It’s why I’ve been saying coldstar is shuma’s best assist, and no one can abuse it better than him. As soon as I get down plink dashing while charge partitioning in 9 and a half years, I’ll be unstoppable!
the trick to doing morrigan combos online. . . or atleast the high damaging bnb is to wait until after you think the soul fist is done. I’m sure you were cancelling into flight before the soul fist came out, which I do a lot online. You have to wait a little longer after the soul fists to flight cancel or unfly cancel.
I can’t even do them offline yet is the thing. 2 Soul Fists max per combo for me currently, and I still just manage to botch flight inputs during combos. I either hit S while I’m at the diagonal instead of when the QCB is complete (negative edge covers this flaw in my inputs in other games) or I somehow manage to only hit down, and back, while missing the diagonal.
I’d think that means she prevents people from playing Marvel. However, Marvel is all about preventing people from playing Marvel… which would make her the most Marvel Marvel character. A paradox…
yeah morrigan combos are damn hard and have specific timing, but the good part is most of it is visual cue based
That stuff just seems like the random stuff I have trouble with as well. I have trouble with viper bk loops because I often come out with ex burn kick. :mad:
So I get done recording a combo after messing it up a couple of times while recording, which is weird since I don’t ever mess up the combo when I’m not recording…
Anyways, I look at the recorded combo clip and realize that the attack info is still on the top right… I forgot to turn that shit off when recording…
Good to finally play someone other than my friend outside of a tournament though finally. I don’t like playing random people, even in player matches, because playing randoms gives me the equivalent of tournament nerves, even though I don’t actually get tournament nerves. If I know, or can physically see the other person, I play normally.
People say forcefield is ass and reactable. Well they haven’t been hit by that Marvel AI tech. The best thing about the Marvel AI is they actually manage to Just Frame Wesker’s super counter and they make it work. Task AI is so godlike he parries lows on reaction.
I actually like Attack Info in combo videos, it actually gives a clear idea of what kind of damage your character is doing with that combo per bar. I really hate when combo video makers choose someone like Strider/Akuma for their combo video to show inflated damage.
Yeah it’s a good move. It funny too because even if you could manage to react to it odds are you wouldnt simply because it would mindfuck the shit out of you since 99% of people have never seen it.
How do you deal with the fact that Doom can’t really kill off of a Jam Session confirm? I’ve seen ShadyK deal with this just through the sheer power of Doom>Dante>Vergil DHC which ends up netting him way more damage than a level 3 ( probably close to twice as much damage actually ), but i’m curious what you opt for when you don’t have that luxury. Not being able to kill off of any hit really sucks and its not like doing Dantes TAC infinite is super practical by any stretch.
Do you just pop the factor if you need the kill? Standard throw or FChamp-esque reset? I feel like even with X-Factor Doom would probably struggle to kill some of the higher life characters without a DHC or level 3, both of which eat a lot of XF time and just resources in general.
I suppose popping factor wouldn’t be the worst thing, playing Doom/Jam or Dante/Missiles is probably one of the better duos to play without X-Factor.
Who cares about not killing off a standard combo in this game? That’s overrated IMO, the most important part is opening people up, and if Jam Session provides that then it’s a job well done, you can always burn XFactor for the kill, snap a problem character or simply go for a reset. Having stronger options and having a easier time opening people up is more important than killing meter positive. I’m pretty sure Doom will still be able to confirm into at least 600k off Jam Session which is great damage, and probably atleast 1million with 1 bar off a XF2 confirm which is great, with 2 bars and a DHC into Million Dollars XFC extension you can probably kill everyone too.
It really is a mind fucking move, whenever I pop it my opponent goes what the fuck is going on. It actually comes out really fast and blows a lot of things up including assist + rushdown character pressure. Like a lot of things in this game it’s simply underutilized. Magneto can actually kill Hulk at the start of the round meterless with stH Force Field OS XF1 Cancel.
im done man.
