UMVC3 SRK Tier List/Theory Discussion. (NEW THREAD NOW AVAILABLE)

I agreed that tournament play matters when tiering? When? Anyway, tiering is character merits. Tournament play generally leans towards easy but good characters.

Thor is legit in this game. He has a very solid projectile (light mighty spark), great air mobility, and pretty solid confirms. The buff to mighty strike is excellent and gives him such a legit way in and if it hits somewhat close to the ground you can confirm into a launch.

If Thor touches you then you basically die, he does massive damage, can take a punch, and has some nasty resets if he really has to use them. His command grab also isnt too bad.

He still has meh assists and meh DHCs (unless you have a team that can DHC into Mighty Tornado then that DHC is Godlike).

I quoted you? Ever read what I say?

Edit: I get it. So your saying (earlier) when playing in a tournament the cheaper you are the better. You left two different statements and one was imcomplete unless put with the other. So it was just plain vague i guess. Still doesn’t explain why you bring in the question of the players? It makes sense to do so but not in the manner you presented. Which still questions marit of the player and character. Whole response is still very vague. Also, Play in general not just tournament leans towards easy cheap tools of the characters even when tiering. If you based off the tier list on perfect computer fighting each other, it would be really difficult to tier characters. You must consider human error and reactions. I don’t really have an the definitive answer to tiering but i’m just understand your analysis tiering.

Well now that the saints loss i can go back to being salty about marvel…damn o well good job to othe 49ers…anyway shoutouts to RDK winning with DAT TRISH technology

I believe that what he was saying was that the reason people don’t rate MODOK as high is because not many people play him and they don’t play him super well.

Trish tech? Divekick…

Yeah but he made the statement that he was better in vanilla and said players (meaning all) aren’t good enough. I guess I shouldn’t take it literally but he’s suggesting that when tiering and tournament play is completely different. Like being cheap in tournament play makes you better but not in tiering. Isn’t tournament just playing marvel is supposed to be? Cheap. But tiering is supposedly just based on qualities and this is actually very hard to determine which character is better. It’s seems very difficult because you can just be in endless loop. You can be like zero beats dorm at this but dorm beats at this but zero can counter that but dorm can use super, etc. Or you can make the argument that well this character has all these tools which automatically makes him top tier. Tiering i think it should be part human play but shouldn’t be based solely on tournament results because that’s all we can go on? Sorry this is getting really philosophical.

unblockables, rdk special (whatever that is lol j/k) the normal shit that he does and he is doin a new combo i hadn seen from him using wesker to do to more footdives

You think too much.

ironman/drones looking pretty solid. was rooting for joker to go the distance

TBH though drones helps everybody. It is such an amazing assist. It makes any character look way better than they actually are.

repulsor with drones cover is fucking annoying

That’s true, but not all characters are equal when it comes in their ability to cover drones calls. Repulsor hits basically everywhere and has good projectile durability, so it makes the assist call pretty safe.

What stream was this?

Drones do help everyone, but IM gets quite the boost and Joker was putting in some work. He was making repulsor + drones look sick since you cannot AG. Makes drones almost guaranteed which leads to IMs up/down airdash mixups which are among the fastest in the game if not the fastest. I dont know if anyone else gets that kind of boost. Plus the long distance hit confirms he was doing with them during normal zoning patterns were pretty good too. Problem is that his reliance on drones for everything opens him up to happy birthdays quite a bit which happened in the tournament a few times. This doesnt make him high tier obviously since there are plenty of weaknesses to his approach but an IM getting that high with such dominant play makes you wonder with the way some people talk about IM.

So true. I played a guy that used Tron/Doom(rocks)/Sent that made Tron look so broken.

drones are way too good

i kinda wish they programmed sent a little different with them

as in, make his health like 1.15 million but when he uses that assist, he takes more damage than any other assist would (so it’s still like he has 900k as an assist), just to keep it balanced cause really, his health being so low holds him back on point (slightly)

it was the nemesis stream

but it’s over now
nini and rdk were also on the stream

It’s +12 on block, what more tech does she need?

a sword.

oh wait, she has that too.
