Marvel vs Capcom 3: Comboing assists

[starfeeder]

Regarding the point at 0:26 that assist characters always take 150% damage, is that still true?

I thought it was discovered that assist characters actually take more damage if say, the opponent performed a hyper but the point character managed to block it, leaving his assist to take even more damage.

[starrburry8]

Wow. The abundant illiteracy and blatant douchery breaks my gaming heart. I am still surprised at how dumb posters can be.

[Pyrobaconstudios]

Oh god.. didn't this game already have enough ridiculous ways to quickly kill you? Man, this just makes me miss anti air assists with invincibility frames even more.

[Detth2you]

I can infinite kill a Phoenix assist with launchers

[madskilliz]

what does he/she mean by OTG? idk what that means

[MrOusama7]

@madskilliz On The Ground, attacks that can hit an opponent that is laying down on the ground for whatever reason.

[ScorpionMK99]

[6o9tenstars]

@crisiscoreffv2 Well, to be honest i have alot of hope for mk9, but thats just because i like Kabal as a character so much. A part of me really hopes they fix the issues with it. But another part of me knows its going to bomb.

[dizziikid]

u cheeesed madd hard -___-



[foghorn2002]

I managed to get an infinite number of launchers to kill an assist character. I noticed you tried it in the video by opening up with a combo. Did you try starting with a launcher? Or is there anything to that.

[6o9tenstars]

@foghorn2002 you can only do that when the opponents point is still on the screen, unless you've found some sort of glitch. What characters were you using

[foghorn2002]

@6o9tenstars I'm sorry I overlooked that detail. Yes, the point character was still on screen. Killing the point character while the assist character is out and vulnerable also does not allow infinite number of launchers.

[Devhawk124]

What does ^ mean?

[jeremycarrier]

The information in the video over complicates the strategy. When you snap-in a character, 1) you need to be snapping in the assist you're currently beating up and 2) you only have a limited time to do it before they are invincible. The amount of OTGs, Wall-bounces, etc are irrelevant.

[6o9tenstars]

@jeremycarrier Again, this is not true. If someone has a high damaging otg and they could do 4 of them in the time allotted, they already arent allowed because they're restricted by the system. So people KNOW this already when they step into training mode to try it instead of getting angry and wondering why they arent allowed to do it more than twice.

[modelzx]

This is really good. Builds and saves meter. Look at Dante's meter at :37. That's starting out with one bar and using one to snap back.

Also, imagine the situation they showed with X-23. You catch Sent-assist and point with a combo into snapback (you snap Sent in while Sent is on-screen). You put all that damage on Sent and after you're done, Sent comes in with little life and no red life.

Or in the second X-23 example, kill the assist and the original point comes back in, minus his red life.

[Matsute]

Can they still escape from moves that essentially locks them into an animation, such as Dance Macabre?

[DukeP00L]

Nice video but painful font

[Mundus66]

I don't really see a point for the snapback my teams usually DHC really well, so if i hit 2 opponents i usually just finish my combo and then DHC. It kills Sentinel as assist with all my teams, plus does more damage to the point character than snapbacking does.

The exception might be the team where i have Haggar and he is the 2nd character. But then i just do 2 DHC quick.

[6o9tenstars]

@Mundus66 Not all teams dhc well, combined with the fact that you're spending more meter than you're gaining if you're dhcing.

[Sawa963]

Nicely done video.

[fkylw]

I can not do million carats that fast. How do you do it that fast?!

[pwnzjoo1]

Ah, I guess if you only have hypers that will drop the assist...

[pwnzjoo1]

Is there almost ever a reason to snapback instead of, say, double hyper? That should literally always kill the assist and deal huge damage to the point.

[darkarsenic]

@pwnzjoo1 phoenix teams, if you combo both characters like that they'll build tons of meter, or if you don't want to deal with a lvl 3 x-factored whatever they have left. or if you don't have 2 hyper bars, just one. maybe even if you just want to stall out time or something.

[pwnzjoo1]

@darkarsenic Wow, GREAT phoenix point. Thanks for that, I'll remember that.

[syxx573]

@pwnzjoo1 i agree

[6o9tenstars]

@pwnzjoo1 Saving meter instead of double hyper. X really takes advantage of it because she has dirt nap.

[pwnzjoo1]

@6o9tenstars Ah, another very good point. None of my characters have such a potent L3. Thanks.

[6o9tenstars]

@pwnzjoo1 l3xf if x-23 touches you she kills you, gains 3 meters, can dirt nap, hit the next character coming in, and otg off of the l3 into a kill on everyone in the game. So its like, any character like that, you give them the ability to touch you only once or twice and they evened it up.

[pwnzjoo1]

@6o9tenstars Yeah, my friend has been learning a bit about X-23 (some of which came from your videos), so I already know about the X-23 XFC nonsense. I don't think there's a single character in the game with as strong of a level 3 as her.

[spikeyguy777]

@pwnzjoo1 shuma goraths is just like hers actually.

[pwnzjoo1]

@spikeyguy777 I don't think it carries the same level of "instant death" though, could be wrong. I thought you couldn't combo after his?

[spikeyguy777]

@pwnzjoo1 yes you can- you can actually do a combo into chaos dimesnion power up, then combo after it into the actual lvl 3 hyper....or catch an opponent tagging in just like x-23s...

[Ary3h]

Amazing stuff man, thanks a lot for putting out an awesome video like this.

[thehottyguy23]

similar to marvel vs capcom 2

[NostalgiaGoggles]

REALLY informative. This will hopefully help me use snapbacks more in my game.

[gosisthebest]

rob loves men

[TizOnly1]

Excellent

[Calcos323]

Very helpful vid.  I always forget about Snapbacks, so keeping this in mind may help me.

[DimitriLionheart]

@Calcos323 good to remember for Pheonix...what? I use pheonix and it annoys me that people say im cheap with her when ive been beaten by alot of snapback strategies >_>;

Just saying its allways good to snap back....the thing I allways forget is the assist counter :/

[iroTrizak]

good stuff
