WHATAMIFIGHTINGFOOOOOOOOO!: the MvC3 Zero Thread

that combo was 4 bars AND x-factor…it had better 90% (at least).
another character that i see some very long combos with along with Joe and Chun

man i was dying while reading all the comments on here and eh about zero being broken and whatnot i bet they are the same fools saying dudley and ibuki were godtier broken so op’ed in ssf4 lol smdh
on another note zero looks very good i loved his lvl1 super DHC in skrull’s lvl1 inferno very sexy

This. Remember people actually saying Dudley was the new vainilla Sagat.

The zero films were a bit deceptive tho’, it was a whole bunch of ‘the other guy drops a combo, zero does a long one’.

His combos are mad long sure, and he looks like he’s amazing pressure, but his damage isn’t actually all that high, even with the long combos. He’d do a crapton of chip tho’, it might not matter if you block him or not :wink:

edit: Also, looks like Rekkouha (sp?) has the same advantages as gamma quake for KFC’ing. (If I’m right) you can do it, KFC out, and get the damage bonus on the move after the fact. It’s like hit-confirm power up :smiley:

For him I’d try Rekkouha > KFC > Ground chain of choice. or even rekkouha > kfc > rekkouha

With MvC3 pushblock being how it is, his chip game might not be as dangerous as you’re making it sound.

I like how when you’re looking at the “discussion groups” before you enter the MvC3 boards, this thread’s title extends into the advertising sidebar. :rofl:

I just ignore mvc3 pushblock for these discussions, it ruins everything :stuck_out_tongue:

Well to be serious, he seems to be in the same position as felicia and cap, a ton of potential options, if his approach methods really work right (his command charge doesn’t look nearly as useful as an 8WAD).

edit: Tofu, it fills me with joy each time I see that for some reason :smiley:

I completely forgot JYB was Zero’s voice when that Level 3 activated - for some moments I thought there was a Japanese VA jumping in. Good shit, my prince.

That voice sounded too much like Zero’s Japanese voiceover in TvC. Methinks that was a really quick cut-in.

The fact that Zero still has command dash will probably mean his pressure with an assist will be scary, pushblock or not. Not everyone’s going to mash pushblock in all their attack strings, or you could just do teleport outside of a block string.

His combo with Down+C into Forward+C (Sweep into multi-hit dash slash) being able to re-combo with the same string even if he goes on the other side is great, it means he won’t be restricted to corner for longer combos. And he’ll be able to bring them at least 1/3 of the screen away with the option of the air attack in normal combos.

I’m also really curious at exactly how fast his level 3 super is to travel full screen, if it destroys EVERY projectile in it’s path, and if it can hit multiple opponents. I think it can potentially be an assist punisher as well as a full-screen punish for anything horrible whiffed, which would make this way more amazing than Dark Hold was.

Zero also does appear to have a conventional air dash in this video: [media=youtube]XP8O85GPNgw&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL[/media]

Once at 0:51 and possibly again at 2:12

The first one is his command dash special move from TvC. In that game you have three variants on the ground and it’s different in the air.

On the ground it’s short distance, long distance, and a V shape going up to down, like a weird jump.

In the air the light version made you go straight down, which is in the video, while medium and hard are the same in the air.

I’m wondering if they gave him different properties for at least one of his moves due to the launch button.

The second one looks like his air back dash, omg if they gave him that it’d be great. He could go a certain amount of distance but stops his trajectory by pressing a button, making him stop suddenly.

right you are, it’s like thor speed at least.

i find it odd how they chose his MMX 3 theme and not the one that gets used more often ( MMX1)

at :51 he actually does a normal airdash(he has no red after images) and cancels it into his command dash upwards. Maybe watch from a few seconds earlier. I’m not to familiar with TvC Zero so thanks for explaining his Command dash to me.

…It’s his MMX2 theme…

The return of TvC’s Metaknight…sigh.

Where’s X again? Oh yeah deconfirmed…fuck.

this theme [media=youtube]3rvgzkMqs2s&feature=related[/media]
or this one [media=youtube]BYlYHJ4P4A8[/media]

would have been sooooooooooooo much better for Zero.

Ah ok, I see it this time, there was a lot going on in that part of the match so I didn’t process all of it. The only thing is that in the other game, the air dash is not instant so there’s a small bit of startup when you do a regular airdash. Still, it’s good to know he has this option in MvC3. Ambiguous crossups whoooo

Zero looks so sick, I can’t wait to use him. He was my fucking hero around when I was like 6-14 years old and you better believe I mained him in TvC.

Zero/Ammy - I bet his command dash will be amazing with Ammy’s Cold Star assist.
