WHATAMIFIGHTINGFOOOOOOOOO!: the MvC3 Zero Thread

The thing about Zero, is that practically all of his music, no matter what game he appears in, is awesome. Every single piece of music that features Zero does a really great job of representing not only his character, but the circumstance he is in.

I was just listening to the [media=youtube]YUA58SCGMmY&feature=related"[/media] remix from Maverick Hunter X, and the theme is just so awesome. Does a great job of letting us know that Vile shouldn’t **** with him, that is, until he “kills” him later on.

X2 is interesting in terms of Zero’s music. It was awfully repetitive (thankfully, remixes and the MvC3 theme remedy this), but it was still some damn good battle music between friends (if you didn’t collect Zero’s parts).

X3, while not being my favorite [media=youtube]GP0LuX4G3tg&feature=related"[/media], was definitely my most memorable. I still recall when I first played the game, and I read in the instruction booklet that you could play as Zero at certain times in the game. Then, in the intro level, X gets caught by Mac, and Zero comes bursting through the ceiling. When this music played, I turned my volume all the way up when I was younger.

X4 was definitely my favorite. [media=youtube]b5h4luXEc_s&feature=related"[/media] this piece of music, as well as his gameplay, made him my favorite in the X series. Plus, I actually liked his voice actor during the actual gameplay. The “WHO-HAH-HOOOOOO” and “It’s not over yet” seemed fitting. But then, I heard…

NOOOTHISISN’THAPPENING THEREISNOREASONFORMETOGOONWHAT… WHATAMIFIGHTINGFOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Even [media=youtube]HWnJyEye9r0"[/media] was pretty awesome.

So many good Zero themes, and only one to choose… I’m actually very pleased with the use of his X2 theme, but maybe [media=youtube]TIb54lUauQM&feature=related%27"[/media] wouldn’t have been a bad idea.

X3 Zero theme is the most poetic, heroic piece of fine art ever made.

That said, it wouldn’t fit a fighting game. I was expecting his X4 theme, but I think that their choice to use the X2 theme was good, as the pace of the song is more closely suited to the pace of the game.

I still like X5 theme the most. X music is pretty good all around, but Classic is my fav.

Cept TvC’s metagame didn’t revolve around Zero alone. :stuck_out_tongue:

Lol that’s not what he said.

Partner or no partner they gave Zero an amazingly easy moveset to combo with…he’s one of the few who’s air dash hurts people…I mean really it’s hard to ignore.

I was actually talking to a friend about this earlier. And like you said, the trailers really heavily favor Zero. Hell, the combo he does on Hulk does about 75% of his life. However, if you pay attention, the returning hit on Cap’s Shield Slash plus the fierce Charging Star does about 1/6 of Zero’s health off of 4 hits. Return of the garbage tier health! Its a fair trade, imo.

Plus, the characters who weren’t Zero were dropping combos left and right. I remember near the end of one of the vids, Ammy was in the middle of a combo that should have ended with Zero’s death, but the combo was dropped. And need I recall Wesker’s counter super when Zero was on the complete opposite end of the screen?

The trailers accomplished what they needed to accomplish. Make Zero (and to a lesser extend, She-Hulk) look good.

If you watch both trailers you can see that there are two parts to Zero’s level 3 hyper. If Zero is far away you get the projectile, if up close he connects with a giant slash!

Looks more like the giant slash is the projectile. Zero’s no stranger to blade beams.

Zero’s airdash did not hurt people…also he’s not easy to combo with. He requires you to have his buster charged all the time for combo links, and needs baroque and a good assist to do any real damage. His easier combos are really weak, and in order to do any worthwile damage you do have to rely on the more technical stuff.

All I need right now is an Av GIF of JYB doing his MMPR Morph cutscene, only into Zero and I will be complete.

Dear Zero, I love you yes homo.

We know…we’ve seen your affair destroy lives.

My bad I took a better look a second time and Zero’s level 3 hyper is a projectile. It reminds me of when you fight him in X5 when Zero goes maverick and you take to long in the fight, and he uses a giant blade beam projectile that kills you.

That kills you… instantly. Good ol’ Genmurei. When you think about it, having this as his Level 3 actually makes more sense then Dark Hold. Dark Hold still looked sweet, though.

im stealing this idea =)

Damn, I never really experienced that move in X5. I just watched a video of it… lol. It does make more sense, but I kind of wish that Zero had a badass animation to go with his level 3.

Plus, I still can’t understand what in the world he says during the startup of his level 3.

You should expand upon it. Make JYB transform into an ungodly creation of all the characters he did voice overs for.

I will kill you, that is mine, I called it. When it’s made by someone, I will be using it.

Nice!

Totally down for Zero. Maining and experting for sure.

Sort of wish this thread was called:

“IRIS! IRIS! IRIS! IRIS! IRIS! IRIS! IRIS! The Zero Thread.”

HAHAHA
