He said it on the F$%@ Slasher show.
Anyone remember that penny arcade tv episode that got linked when vanilla came out? One of them said something like, " I can’t wait to play Iron man I love that character" and then the other goes " You can’t ‘SomeJackass’ is playing him". I lol’ed.
Lets not be those guys. If you want to be a special Zero be the one that no one can fucking beat.
other than wesker, this guy could possibly be the best character in umvc3. He’s like dante with ouroboros. the only thing really holding virgil back in my opinion is the fact that he got nerfed in the H&H patch (the float), but then again, i don’t play him.
Again that proves you don’t know about the character. I hate when people make wild and dumb assumptions about a character they don’t even play or have seen played at a even remotely high level.
Meh no one is gonna bandwagon Zero. Holding down a button is too much for the ABCS-BBCS crew which is like 90% of the MVC3 population.
Man I hope thats sarcasm cause id be tight cause ive spent the past two weeks burning that shit into my head. I feel for the level of execution and the fact it requires bar makes it fair enough, or at least as fair as magento flight combos or spencer zip combos… I dont wanna havta pick the sons of sparda to get good damage lol
Zero combos got like 20x easier in Ultimate because you don’t really have to switch charge buttons anymore, due to no shippuga loop or Steb ender. It’s not even hard now.
Still, it’s more work than doing Wesker combos.
And in all honesty, lighting loop is OP. One meter for like 400k-500k is silly. It’s fair in the form of the Vergil DHC, but for Zero to do it himself is kinda dumb.
The problem isn’t the lightning loop… is the minimum damage scaling of Zero’s Specials…
I mean… 30% is WAY too much…
if it was 15% then lightning loop would do like 200, 250k damage for 1 meter (fullscaled) and that would be pretty fair IMO… as Rekkoha does 180k damage fullscaled.
True. Dante’s damages is scaled down to like 2% or something stupid when you max out the hits. Just ain’t right.
The funny thing with the lightning loop now is that even if you fuck it up, just going for it does more damage than if you’re ending your knockdown combos with a rekkoha. I pretty much use rekkoha now only if i plan on dhcing or if my execution is beyond bad that day.
^ Yeah it’s retarded, Sougenmu, Buster, L Raikousen then 2 TK Raikousens does more damage than Rekkoha AND gives you tonnes of possibilities for mix up. Currently writing and recording a load of setups that can’t be tech’d forward/ rolled out of. Before I saw Wesker’s Gun Loop I’d have said it was by far the stupidest shit in the game.
that’s actually quite interesting, go for a few reps then reset them with the shadows, sounds quite stupid honestly.
Yeah, if you end your air combo with a knockdown and have buster charged, never go for rekkoha for an ender unless you wanna dhc. Just jump dive, buster, raikosen XX sougenmu while charging, jump lv3 buster into raikosen and already you’ve done more than a rekkoha.
OK even I have to admit that’s kinda stupid.
Well with the lighting loop around, who needs Zero/Anyone DHC’s? Might as well take DHC’s out of account when building teams, at least for the sake of damage.
still far more convenient and practical to dhc if your team allows it, but yes no point in building your team around that anymore unless your execution is garbage.
hell, now that you mention it i might switch back to dante/vergil order. dante needs an assist badly… shitty anchor imo.
i wish they’d remove lightning loop
even if you fuck up after 2 lightnings you end up with more damage via chip anyway lol
Shut your mouth. Be careful what you wish for.
It’s not like you can mash Rekkoha for extra hits. /self-justification
If they take out Lightning loop they need to at least make zeros moves do WAY more Damage or WAY less hitstun and Give us a wall or ground bounce move ( didnt we discuss this MONTHS ago where we all asked for this move **Hyouretsuzan **[media=youtube]2nncCaq8h_o[/media] ( the ice dive )
Something else of note is that even though I can only lightning loop on one side, it’s also easy for me to switch sides mid combo if I have to in order to get them on the right side lol…
who needs to be ambidextrous in this game?
