What are your thought on Virgil of UMvC3?

All I want is stance switching and a absolutely badass devil trigger mode.

Vergil is going to be exactly like hes supposed to be like.

To understand how Vergil could work in a 2D fighter, you have to look no further than everyone’s favourite game engine MUGEN lol.

There’s a good demonstration of the type of gameplay I’m expecting at 15 seconds in that video. I think he’s going to be a range trap/lockdown type of character but have decent up close game. He’ll probably have faster normals than Dante due to the fact that he has lighting fast draws and I’m expecting this to make it in as a projectile counter or nullifier.

You know I remember watching these videos way back in the day, and watching them I realize that Dante not being 1/10th of his DMC3 incarnation in MvC3 was possibly the wisest balance choice Capcom could have made.

i can see him being stronger then dantae myself

dunno why i just can.

You will not forget this devil’s power.

You are not worthy as my opponent.

What if he has a beast form like dante. That would be sick

You can jump down?

He has a Devil Trigger in the game, so he should have one here too.

I can imagine Vergil being somewhat like Spiral but with a better up close game. Summoned swords and Judgment Cuts for zoning (although I don’t think they’ll be as ridiculous for lockdown as Spiral’s swords or Strider’s orbs, but they could), teleports, possibly a sort of dive kick with the Beowulf along with a few combos, Devil Trigger super (maybe alternate costume where he turns onto Nelo Angelo as opposed to his normal Devil Trigger). I also mentioned to a few friends I think it’d be cool if they gave him a sort of super that’s like Jill’s cinematic Lv1 (DMC3 players should know what I’m referencing) but it most likely won’t happen.

Yeah Vergil doesnt have a double jump…

But Dante cant teleport in the air.

Vergil is going to be godlike. And I already called him, so no bandwagon riders in November.

Down D

Pretty sure some of the people on MVC3s dev team used to work on the DMC series. I have a feeling they’ll be as faithful with Virgil as they were with Dante. I just hope he has some good assists.

I’m calling him now as my main so my decision won’t be affected by his tier later on.

stoked !!!

I wonder what assists he’ll have access too, I’d like something unique. Everyone is still holding out for a true Captain commandoPsylocke assist I wonder if Vergil could offer those options assist wise?

It’d have to be a pretty heavy re-purposing of one of the moves he had in the games.

He did use a parry-like move in the boss fights against him in DMC3. It had a lot of active frames and caused a “clash” that stunned Dante long enough to allow him to counter with impunity - you could only jump, roll, or use Trickster/Royal Guard abilities to escape the stunned state and the counterattack (some counterattacks would actually come out too fast to escape in any capacity). If that ability shows up in UMvC3, it could make for a pretty dangerous assist since it would blow up attack strings and let the point character do whatever they want afterwards.

I’m certain that Vergil will be a faster yet more defensive than Dante in terms of gameplay. I played DMC 3 and he has a pretty strong and effective moveset compared to Dante who has like over 50 or more but his Darkslayer style is weaker compare to Dante who has 4 styles of play (5 if you count the Darkslayer in DMC 4). He has great combo potential and if used in the right hands I’m sure he’ll dominate alot of characters in the game.

Plus to top it off he wield a freaking katana I mean seriously how BA is that!

He’ll be top tier as fuck, just like the rest of the Devil May Cry characters, and I’m happy as hell about it.

Glad im not the only one who realizes that Trish is top tier.

i thought it was blatantly obvious to anyone who is knowledgeable about this game:eek:
