Any chance you might reveal the name of the guy doing this to you? I know someone who keeps posting videos of himself doing exactly this and it makes me lol everytime.
discomilitia mate. haha yeah he does post a lot of vids up of this lame tactic 
i just looked up discomilitia. how in the world are you at a loss against this guy? he’s constantly up backing, all you have to do is dash in and grab him. he’s not doing any mixups, it sounds to me like you just aren’t blocking.
great, i take the day off to play diablo and now my eyes are bleeding from discomilitia’s youtube videos.
i do block… lots. after that post ive come to the conclusion you are just out to criticise my op. i block as much as i have to… its blocking thats the problem.,. ya just get held down by that assist. its not easy to get round. i need a beam assist or something, i was just hoping it didnt come to changing a character… if you genuinely know what im on about and have fought someone using this tactic then you would know exactly what i mean… say you have some skills that can get round it? the point is is that you had to think and use your skill and full concentration and experience to focus just to get in there… where as he is just mashing H like i said… its a simple scrubby combo… yes there are ways around it, I use meteor smash and inferno… then what… im stuck without meter and no way of gaining any.i guess ive just been stubborn in not changing out members of my team… looks like i’ll have to.
holy shit you’re losing to THIS?!?!?!

As someone who plays Wesker/Sentinel/Strider (don’t judge), there are lots of ways to get around drones. first of all, you can happy birthday him if he’s trying to call drones and teleport at the same time. It’s a guess but you’re wolverine so dashing towards Wesker is kinda what you do anyway.
You can super jump to avoid drones and then divekick on the way back down to avoid air throws, although he can counter that by mixing you up as you land with teleports or he can counter your divekick (no one does this). This is the easiest way to deal with drones, is to not block it.
Drones are very slow to come out. You don’t have to respect the ‘threat’ of drones like a beam assist or Akuma tatsu, you can just get in there with your primary assist. Sentinel is also out for a long time. You can just hit him with one attack to make the drones disappear. Once drones are out you obviously need to not get hit by them.
If he’s always doing the heavy teleport, you could just block crossup after you see him do a gun (because, like you said, he always teleports with gun).
Deadpool should be shutting down drones and getting you in at the same time… why aren’t you getting a mixup when he blocks deadpool?
LMFAO.
It *is *him. Can’t believe it. I’ve got him on facebook and XBL because I only just realised there were other people in Chester playing FGs. We’ve not played, but he’s posted a few vids up on facebook recently and I was watching them cause he’s apparantly going to PvC4 this sat up north in Middlesborough, and fuck me I thought he was trolling. I was sitting there thinking:
“Right, Wesk/Sent/Strange. Err, that’s odd, he’s mashing gunshot teleport over and over and calling Drones. Hmmm, maybe he’s just messing around, he’s playing a guy in the US so the connection’s probably shitty. He’s still mashing it… OMG. HE WON?!”
And then it’s the same for the other vids I’ve seen, maybe with one against you perhaps, dunno. I saw him play Dorm too and it was:
Teleport H (not even crossing up lol) > falling H, st.H, st.S, j.H, j.S, Flame Carpet > Repeat xN
Just gotta keep playing and improve dude. If you work hard enough at it you’ll look back at this and think why the fuck couldn’t I beat this before?
I really want to teach him how to use Wesker now.
Hahaha there always seems to be a rant about Wesker on the first page of this forum
i’ve given you advice in damn near every post i’ve made. i just can’t get over how badly your friend is playing. there’s no excuse for someone who claims to be damn good at this game to be losing to a Wesker doing nothing but jumping.
and u know what you play wolvierne and if that guy plays that …divekick/OS grab will werk his ass
seriously the whole time watching this guy play no one thought to grab or throw out a projectile or superjump to stay back. and no assist calls at all.
you’re not that good get that out your head now. thats why ur losing because you think your better then him when really ur not because ur losing to THAT
and he’s not even using drones the right way. all he doing is jumping back> gunshot>teleport into j.s then he does TAC’s. you have all that time in the world to grab his ass.
lets take that mach i just posted.
the ghost rider player was just spamming j.s. a good tactic but not againist UPback. he should had throw his long ass command grab which can lead to good potential dmg. dorm…are you kidding me all that dorm had to do was call tower and throw out a couple of dark holes. would had blown up sent and wesker. plus he’s backed by jam session wesker would not get in.
u need to sit down and train on this because with wolverine/deadpool/skrull you should not be losing to these kinds of tatics…period
Sounds like you’re more flustered with the ease of the tactic rather than the effectiveness, which is a bit silly to be honest, who cares how easy it is? There are obviously going to be more execution heavy and less execution heavy characters, you shouldn’t really be complaining about losing just because your friend doesn’t have to do simple QCF motions, if you spend a lot of time on this game ( as you’ve stated ), those should be second nature to you by now and wouldn’t be holding you back.
But anyway yes, Wesker/Sent is a very cookie cutter and effective combination, and maybe those characters fit your friends playstyle better and thats why hes doing better, not simply because its “cheap”. Hes using a very game changing neutral assist but it doesn’t sound like hes using it properly, although Wolverine backed by no way to clear the screen probably has a tough time dealing with it at an elementary level I suppose. Doesn’t mean you have to change up your team though, plenty of people play poorly optimized teams and do just fine.
Have you tried changing the matchup? Switching to Deadpool on point, and raining down guns, because neither Wesker or Sentinel can cover that area of the screen, if he teleports up to you, its obviously being done raw, and can easily be air thrown. The best way to deal with drones is just not to let yourself get locked down by them, even if you happen to get locked down, it doesn’t sound like your friend uses command grabs so you should have no problem pushblocking your way out of the situation. Super jump over them and take advantage of when the assist is on cooldown, or you can just raw Air Super and you’ll probably chunk out half of Sentinels life and deter him from calling it again.
Heck, I mean you could even put Super Skrull on point when you have 2 meter and wait for a bad assist call and just Meteor Smash Inferno XF Inferno and get rid of the both the problems right there.
Although some of this advice could be way off, I don’t play any of your characters and I actually don’t play vs many Sentinels.
You say that but that shit is hard for Thor to deal with. Why he gotta be so big and slow?
Ever heard of a salt thread bro? You’d fit right in with all this weaker salt. I’ve never understood using him on point though. Put him on anchor and if you lose the other two Xfactor that shit. Game over
LMAO, that video was fuckin’ hilarious, I don’t think he ever used a single L or M! And I can’t forget about dat Bolts of Ballsack, hitting Dorm 3 times in a rowXD
I don’t have any experience with what to do with Thor. i’ve just been answering this guy with his team in mind.
cheers for all the advice. those videos aint exactly what he does to me… he just constantly calls the drones out. non stop. and comes at me with teleport. and i cant get two meter with skrull on point ^^ because i cant get near him to get meter. i am good at this game. i know i am. and my friend IS a scrub and has even said “I use this team to be a total scrub, its piece of piss…” he knows he wins with it… that video and none of his others really show just exactly what he does with me… like i said, i dont always lose…
He got him in the infinite!
Top secret tech: Bolts of Ballsack don’t hit crouchers.
Use skrull and it should be easy to punish sent. Just wait until he calls the assist then meteor smash into inferno.
