Why do you play Dante?

In yo, In yo, In yo, In your face

He will get in no matter what…

it doesn’t matter if they patch the dhc glitch or not when dante and certain other chars can get 3+ bars from a 2A. using dhc glitch just means you don’t have to watch as long.

but anyways, to stay on topic… i use dante because he’s dope.

DMC3. And the fact that he can do everything. And airgrab into 900k. And the fact that he’s one of the only 5 characters in this game I have fun playing as. And combos people can watch for hours without getting bored.

Jam session assist. Just the fact that he’s a great character is a huge bonus.

I think it’s cuz x23 weapon xprime DHC into tron king kobun is a DHC glitch. It unscales the damage. I’m not sure but I think this is why he says he can get touch of death kill.

nice, never seen anyone else with 1000 gamerscore in dmc4. I did absolutely everything in dmc 4 AND DMC3. I als oown every devil may cry game, so choosing him was pretty obvious. Im just glad he came out like he did in mvc3, they translated his gameplay perfectly.

Because it’s fucking Dante.

DMC3 heads know what I’m talking about.

Because of the DMC3 combo videos…

That was the game

According to Capcom the Sentinel nerf patch was planned before the game was released, I’m sure the same can be assumed about the other glitches given how quickly they were found.

I may be wrong, but I honestly feel that the DHC glitch is a little harder to fix than say Sentinel’s health and certain infinites. With say an infinite, you change the property of that particular move that creates the loop, but the DHC glitch has so many facets from so many different teams that figuring out every single one could take time.Then apply that the programmers have to code new properties for everyone of those DHC’s seems like a lot of work. Perhaps they do fix it, what else does it break in the game with those new properties ? Again, I could be totally wrong and they fix it next week, but we’ll see.

Sticking to the topic, I run Dante cause quite frankly their is no Strider. I loved all of Striders options from MVC1/MVC2, so he seemed like a natural replacement.

The dhc glitch is much more simple than that, I believe that it occurs in the same exact way for every single character. It always starts with the character being hit getting locked into a cinematic state, and only requires a dhc afterwards. Any dhc triggers it. It looks like the game engine was never given a proper response to a fixed, cinematic event being halted midway, and the result was the damage/hitstun scaling reset and the opponent spiraling upwards. This seems like such an obvious issue to any game developer however, that I think it was intentionally left in by Capcom. I realize that Sentinel benefits slightly from the dhc glitch (he requires being in the corner, but Dante/Magneto are very good at setting that up for him) but he is really outclassed by other characters at filling this role, both for obvious reasons at midscreen and especially in the corner (D-loop). With this combined with Sentinel’s health nerf, I feel that even if Capcom was not aware of the glitch originally, the fact that the two have cause significantly more character diversity in competitive play might be enough for them to leave the game the way it is now.

As horribly broken as it is, it’s not like regular dhc’s can’t kill any character in the game anyway.

Back on topic, I use Dante

:rock:

This, the 40+ moves made me real hype for this boy.

I play Dante because I really wanted Ryu from Breath of Fire to be in the game and he didn’t make it but they gave his outfit to Dante as color 3.

Somewhat unrelated to this discussion, but wouldn’t it have been much cooler if characters defeated by Dante dropped red orbs? Even if they were purely aesthetic, it would have been so awesome. I love how much of Dante’s feel they got right, but that addition probably would have kept me playing Dante forever. lol

I approve of Liquid’s idea.

Dante has been my favorite videogame character since 2001. Also, my first man-crush. I can’t NOT main him.

Buddy, Hand Vs Eye.

Oh god, I love this. Dante is already brimming with DMC fanservice, though. I dunno if I could handle that.

His combos are amazing…

Dante has bitch moves. I love playing like a bitch.

Dante makes MVC3 amazingly fun when you’re adding extra moves in between to extend combos. And the moves are sexy as hell. Don’t get me started on that sexy teleport as well.
