What characters did you drop in vanilla and why?

Classic Fighting Games Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom 3
121

Started: MODOK, Wesker, Doom:
Mained this until the day Shuma came out

Transitional: Shuma/Taskmaster/Wesker
Really long transitional team.

Final/Current: Shuma/Arthur/Wesker.

Shuma needs a good assist to get in and do heavy damage, Also he can do high-low mix-ups at insane length when combined with the daggers.
In addition, Arthur’s daggers rape all other projectiles especially when upgraded.
Also Arthur is a monster of a character when you have at least 3 meter and x-factor remaining. Also his level 3 GRAVITY SQUEEZE has so much herp it’s derp.
Wesker is on there because I need an OTG, also he’s derp.

122

The only character I dropped was Wolverine simply because he bored me to tears.

I like to do a little “exploring” with my characters and what I got with Wolverine seemed to just be very one-dimensional. Everyone else I started with I still play.

My 2nd team hasn’t changed at all. Only one character has swapped between my 1st and 3rd teams.

123

In kind of a stupid move, I dropped Wolvie for Tron. I wasn’t using Wolvie to his max potential back then, so I picked Tron up for her assist and 'cause I was mesmerized by Clakey D’s Tron half a year ago lol.

124

Morrigan, Iron Man and Hsien-Ko.

Pretty self explanatory I guess. Also dropped Dante because I don’t have the execution for him.

125

Started with Wesker/IM/Felicia.

Dropped IM and Felicia for Doom/Magneto cause I’m like, a total tier whore

126

standing h does EVERYTHING. anti airs, beats lows, safe on block, high priority and you can kara command grab with it.

127

Dropped:
Super-Skrull - seemed to perplexing as a character and I didn’t feel I could learn him and went with others.
Doctor Doom - My day one team was called “Doctor Weskmaster” consisting of my 3 favorite characters. Unfortunately I felt Doom’s learning curve was a bit high, and even though I did learn a lot with him, I wasn’t consistent enough.
Dante - I was thrilled when I figured out his Bold Cancels and flashy combos and he ended up taking Doom’s spot perfectly but in the end, the same thing happened, I wasn’t consistent. My execution wasn’t high enough to hit those combos all of the time.
Wolverine, Tron, Akuma team - Too herpy for me. It’s sad that even though I don’t play him anymore, I still have a pretty nice Wolverine, but who doesn’t?
Sentinel - Once I realized he’s more of a liability, I decided it was time to get rid of his big ass.

Who I picked up:
Zero - I found that I have an amazing time using Zero, both with my results and how fun it is for me. His gameplay always looked really cool to me and because I can pull it off, it makes for a fun experience.
Jill - Well, I don’t know her yet but I plan on practicing with her so I can use S.T.A.R.S Wesker, RE3 Jill, and Nemesis in Ultimate.

128

Its not very good by itself neccesitating an action on block and is horrid on whiff. I think you mean c.M the true ‘I beat everything you have on the ground LOLOLOL’ Man. Wesker. What a cool guy.

129

I dropped taskmaster not because of his changes but because I am bored of playing taskmaster, and there are way more intresting characters to play like viper, firebrand, doom, frank west. I actually like taskmaster’s changes though the Charging star into the stab in grab which is safe on block looks ridiculous. I also like his Mighty wing Arrow cancel I am bummed they took away his arrow lifts though It was his only real technical attribute.

Edit: I dropped wesker for the same reason the guy is just way too boring

130

LOL let me get in on this

Morrigan: she was my day one point characther. her combos dmg was crap and she was high risk/low reward. i didn’t want that in a characther so i dropped her.

ironman: i acatully still like ironman to this day. but it was some things about him that i didn’t like either so i dropped him. i may or may not mess around with him.

taskmaster: i acatully had fun with taskmaster…but he’s too assist dependet for my tastes.

chun: i was one of those “mash derp legs till it works” ppl. but i never had fun with chun and her combos was too low for my taste.

felica: i loved felica when i played with her. but i could not do any of her combos…i said bye bye to this pussy…cat.

chris: chris was alright but im not really a zoner. and if i was a zoner he need tools to cover every possible area…(which is why i got doom on my team lol)

tron: i used her for her assist but when she came out i couldn’t do nothing…messed up my whole team.

i think thats it. somehow i decided to pick up wesker and i had doom on my squad since day 1 and akuma is there cause he got a great assist and i can play him like i want.

131

this is one of the reasons why i use wesker, cuz no one keeps bitches in check like he does.

that pimp slap should have been his snap back move.

132

Started off with Dante/Pool/Sent, doing jetstream into super like a boss. Dropped them after I got stomped a few times.
Picked up X23/Mags/Sent, and quickly dropped them as well after I realized I hated X23 and Magneto’s more damaging combos were hard as fuck.

I then started using She-hulk/Shuma/Dorm up until a month ago when I decided I wanted to use M.O.D.O.K. (I love the way he can control the match after you pick up some momentum), so I built a team for him consisting of Skrull & Spencer. I’ll probably replace Skrull with Frank, Nova, or some-nother new guy that has an assist that can extend my combos in the sexy way Skrull’s Orbital Grudge can.

133

The changes they made to Iron Man (and Magneto) makes me consider never playing a high execution character in a Capcom fighter ever again. Such horseshit. The fact that there isn’t a larger protest is a sign that hardly anyone outside myself put any real time into playing this character. I’ve put in so much time and labbed out so much shit in Vanilla with Iron Man that people aren’t doing with the character - and now none of that shit’s applicable due to him (practically) not having a tri-dash or double jump. This character is WAAAY better than most people give him credit for (in Vanilla).

I’ve considered heading over to Capcom Unity and raising a hellstorm, but I’d practically be an army of one, and I guess I don’t care THAT much (I seriously did consider not even buying Ultimate because of it, though).

But yeah, I’m probably going to drop both Iron Man and Magneto, not because they won’t be good, but because they likely won’t be anywhere near as fun to play in this game. I’m not sure who I’ll replace them with, because Ultimate’s got a ton of conflicting shit going on design-wise. I have no idea what characters will actually be fun to play until I have a firmer idea what the game is going to play like in relation to its predecessor.

134

Original team: Haggar/Iron Man/Sentinel

Dropped:
Iron Man: This was at the beginning of the game’s release when I didn’t know how to do anything, and eventually stopped using him after a while cause I was bad.
Sentinel: Dropped when I realized that I would never improve since all of my matches ended in Level 3 X-Factor Rock’em Sock’em Robots fights.

Played Briefly:
X-23: Played on a team of X-23/Taskmaster/??? (I honestly can’t even remember who it was at this point). Wasn’t a fan of the playstyle all too much, also was during my “I’m free” period when I first picked up the game.

I switched to a lot of characters, but I always generally stayed away from Wesker/Dante/Zero (to this day I haven’t played Dante besides four or so missions in mission mode).

Eventually went to: Haggar/Hulk/Taskmaster

Since Taskmaster is my only really good character, and Hulk is easy, I stayed at this team for an incredibly long time, and it’s still my secondary team that I use just in case I don’t feel like playing my main team (since I need improvement with one of my new mains) and I’m still pretty decent with this combination.

Main team: Haggar/Doom/Task or Doom/Haggar/Task

Bringing Doom in cause I like the character, character is good, if not a bit odd to maneuver, and fun to play. Plus dat level 3.

For Ultimate, I have the feeling that I’ll be dropping Haggar, since character loyalty may not be enough to get me to keep him, and I will probably drop Hulk from my main team (might play him on a backup team, might not, no clue yet). Task I’m keeping for sure, since he’s my best character out of the three far and away. And as well as that, most likely Doom, because that Foot Dive Kick is gonna be sick, and I really want to improve with him come Ultimate.

135

I can actually have fun playing as every character on Vanilla, except for one. I can not stand playing as Trish. She feels like an incredibly gimped version of Dante that tries to make up for her shortcomings with traps, even though traps don’t really mesh well with her fighting style at all.

136

I was really upset about the changes they made to Magneto when I first heard about it, but when I spoke out about it, everyone just nagged about how he’s still going to be godlike and how I don’t deserve to have an opinion about it. Which is horseshit.

If you actually put in the time to learn a character who is relatively difficult to learn, you shouldn’t be punished for it. I would take a Magneto who can do all of his vanilla BnBs at half damage because he’s that fun to play.

Fuck it though, I’m gonna suck it up and find some good shit in training mode.

137

Started with Shehulk, but I didn’t know how to rushdown with her and lost to screen clutter.

Moved to Hulk but I was confused cause the commands for Gamma Charge and Gamma Wave were switched from MVC2. I also wasn’t used to Gamma Charge changing direction depending on what button is pressed instead of what direction you hold.

Ironman was looking like a good character, but I was dropping a lot of OTG smartbomb combos and I hated the fact that I couldn’t utilize his more technical combos (part of the reason why I don’t play combo heavy characters.)

MODOK was going to be my ultimate zone character but as soon as people started superjumping over all of his screen cluster, I had to cut him out until I mastered his mobility game. I also didn’t know how some of his mechanics worked like jamming bomb and analysis cube.

138

Yup. We’re not allowed to have any fun that isn’t within Capcom’s parameters, apparently.

139

Magneto/Morrigan/Dante was my first team. But I just used mags to spam distruptor so I dropped him.

Morrigan: I dropped her for a long time but I know play her as one of my top 7 1000+. My main problem was the lack of damage, but I’ve found ways to make her work for me now like the prostitute she is. Get me that money girl.

Spencer: Saw Combofiend and has him at the end of a Wesker/Task team, but I’m just not really feeling him so I dropped him.

Dante: He is currently on my main team, but I did drop him for about a month. I just wanted to win matches and as opposed to Wesker he requires some execution to use online.

C. Viper: I currently have a thrd/4th team with her. I origionally dropped her because I couldn’t get those box dashes down on my pad, so I didn’t use her for several monthes later. But yesterday I randomly got the box dash down to the wire on my pad even online with wireless lag so she’s back.

Trish: While I did enjoy the boobie jiggle on there hopscotch, I not that much into zoning and spamming. But In the last two months I picker her back up.

Taskmaster: After playing the game for a while I got tired of how boring he was, so I dropped him. Then I picked him back up for my main team again.

Ironman: I really wanted to make it work and put a lot of time into it. But getting in was hard, and his zoning is subpar, so I dropped him.

She-Hulk: I originally hated her and vowed to never play her. Then I random picked her and liked it so I used her for random teams I made. She’s like my 5th most used character.

Dr.Doom: I had serious trouble getting in, and I not that big a fan of zoning. Plus his buktooth loop was hard as hell for me on the pad so I dropped him. But like Viper yesterday I random picked him and got the loop down so now I use him.

Transitional Teams:
Wesker/Dante/Taskmaster
Wesker/Taskmaster/Spencer
Wesker/Dante/Trish

C.Viper/Task or Dante/Doom 3
X-23/Wesker/Akuma 6

Slap-Back? it only now occurs to me that wesker was not buffed enough - OH LOST CHANCES.

Wesker is the pimp of the nation he’s the one character I’ll never drop even if he was nerfed into oblviion I’d waste the spot just to remind people how weak they are and that they oughta try harder. I’m supportive like that
