You lack discipline oh foreign knight! The Arthur Thread

So am I the only person who’s gonna still rep Arthur despite what Keits said?

The guy has to have SOMETHING going for him, just look at him.

I’d try him out as an assist lol

Can someone appoint me to this article…

Shoryuken - Capcom’s Secret Las Vegas Marvel vs Capcom 3 Event Summary

I don’t see any reason to be discouraged by what Keits said. He didn’t say Arthur was terrible or anything; he said Arthur was awkward and that doing well with him would take adjustment, maybe moreso than a more straightforward character or a character returning from MvC2. As people get used to him and figure out how to use his projectiles to the fullest, I imagine that “He is pretty damn hard to win with right now” will become something more like “He is tough to use well but can hang with the rest of the cast just fine.”

I main Setsuka in Soulcalibur so no character’s learning curve scares me.

Bring him on.

Do we know how fast Arthur’s Torch assist is? I assume it OTGs, but if it’s too slow people will be barely landing it.

I wonder if art has a over head? Can anybody answer this question, about him having a over head? because with him not having any type of dash air/ground this is very important to be about to keep people off him… I know we have assist but…I know that his gold armor has a timer and after that it breaks but does anybody know if once you start with the silver armor will it break if you do NOT use gold armor at all?thanks in evidence… I can’t wait to use him and ammy together.

No way, he is the first character I am picking. I am determined to main this little knight.

Loving Arthur gameplay vids, looks like a promising character. To me, he’s like a battery mixed in with a strong lockdown assist.

Start him off at point, lockdown with daggers and assists, and build plenty of meter in the process. After you’ve gained enough meter, Golden Armor DHC into someone who puts good use to the meters. Now you have a point with potential for damage and a strong assist (particularly Fire Bottle Toss, but the other assists may be useful too).

I have a feeling his Dagger assist might prove useful. I’m not completely sure how it works though but it might have combo potential (course fire bottle probably does too but I’ll be testing them all thoroughly on release)

Either way, yeah I have the same strat. Arthur/Ryu/Doom, and after some time I’ll DHC Arthur with armor upgrade to RYU (preferably to punish something like hail storm due to its slow ass start up)

So who’s looking like a good match for arthur team wise?

Teal Arthur

Can someone get me a moves/assists list? I’d like to update the original post.

assits as far i know:

Dagger throw
Flame bottle

The third is named Heavenly Slash. I would assume it’s some kind of sword slash, but I don’t know that it’s been seen in any videos thusfar.

As for when he’s on point, I believe qcf+A is the dagger throw, and mashing A more throws more daggers, up to… eight? during a jump.

:qcb::2p: is the Golden armor hyper < true. you get also a time bar over the hyper bar
:qcf::2p: is i guess dagger toss hyper < not sure.
and SRK motion maybe lvl 3 hyper < not sure.

Keits: QCF and QCB + buttons throw stuff (lol)

oh and 3rd assist as Shdowninja64 already said is Heavenly Slash it’s a launcher if i see it correctly on the selection screen

The video with MikeRoss playing arthur was promising imo.

he wasn’t playing him like arthur tho’, needed more crap thrown.

Whoever was in charge of Arthur and made the “Fire Bottle” move got their Ghouls N Ghosts mixed up with their Castlevania. Shit’s a torch son.
