UMvC3: Captain America High Damage Combos (Unassisted)

[SuperSwaggKiDD1]

You gotta respect it Captain America has some good combos

[skippydeenice]

In order to join the tournament, Captain America had to borrow money from Captain China

[TheRunningPanda]

does the infinite still work?

[BrawlersUpTv]

@TheRunningPanda Yes

[kagemaru1987]

Cap and Ryu all day

[wolfeagle847]

Notation on these combos? If not, please add it would be appreciated

[olivermoonp]

Great video

[BrawlersUpTv]

@LolDaMaddin Captain A. and Spencer have very good chemistry I've actually been running them together for a while. That could be a potentially strong team. 3 very good characters together is never a bad thing.

[LolDaMaddin]

@BrawlersUpTv yeah im using wolvie/spencer/captain now and i gotta say it works out perfectly for each character o: still have to work on my captain combos though x)

[BrawlersUpTv]

@LolDaMaddin Cool, that's awesome! The Cap combos will come, just keep playing and practicing.

[Onitori206]

@BrawlersUpTv

My team: Capt. Spencer and Hawkeye/Akuma. Strong chemistry, I've been running that team since meta MvC3 bout time someone realized their potential.

[LolDaMaddin]

You think captain goes well as a teammate for wolvie and spencer? Ive been looking for a third character FOREVER and im considering captain america to be my third man

[shadowslots]

so is that double kick command normal he has worth it?

[BrawlersUpTv]

@shadowslots Very much so, it's his best normal and it's a good footsie and baiting tool if you know what you're doing.

[AJDaEnvoy]

This vid goes raw like no condoms

[runecircle]

Thanks for the vid!

[BatmanTheMaskedDemon]

Show some respect

[wanmigchampo11]

In 1:36 at Sentinel thanks for showing me Air Shield Slash can OTG...

[monkeywolf]

@wanmigchampo11 Only the L version (you probably new that but I wanted to be helpful T.T)

[aredcherries]

sorry dude but they made cap way too strong on umvc..... 800k 1 super..... double jump.... otg shield throw was wat really did it.... they should left cap alone after the double jump buff

[marquisimo11]

I'm trying the basic shield slash juggling, but for some reason they always recover after first hit of the H shield slash. I'm thinking it's an issue of timing, so got any tips? The L shield slash and the M shield hit both times btw, and i can get it up to that very easily.

[Jblank78]

After this video, I showed some respect

[younglife251]

Im trying so hard to get that first combo on ghost rider down, but they keep recovering on the second launch. What am i doing wrong??

[BrawlersUpTv]

@younglife251 Hmm, I don't know. it could be any number of reasons. I can pretty much do it in my sleep lmao..What part of the second launch are they recovering? The actual air combo portion or the launcher into the first hit of the air combo portion? It could be you are hit confirming too late, or you added to many attacks before that part causing too much hitstun deterioration? Or you are using the wrong attack and it's not comboing properly.

[UncleOwna]

@BrawlersUpTv I have this same problem. The enemy recovers after the second launch during the j.MMHS ... inbetween the H and the S. Does which type of j.H move you do matter a lot in this combo? Thanks in advance for your feedback :)

P.S. Now that I look at it, it seems you do a Down+H in that second launch. Maybe that is it?

[hellknight90]

How to play cap? I DEMAND IT. Awesome video. I main cap and i like this a lot

[TelvanniGuard]

Adding more notes onto the Level 3 X-Factor Infinite:

It doesn't work on:

Arthur, Viewtiful Joe, Amaterasu, Shuma Gorath, Storm, Trish, or Dr. Strange

Or maybe the timing is incredibly tight. I can do it perfectly on everyone else except these few.

[BrawlersUpTv]

@TelvanniGuard Good stuff bruh, I will test these out myself as well when I get a chance and update my description with your edit if indeed it checks out that way. Thanks

[BrawlersUpTv]

@TelvanniGuard updated in the description, and I gave you credit there as well. Good job again...

[TelvanniGuard]

@BrawlersUpTv

I'm sure someone has probably figured it out before me, but thanks and keep up the good work Soldier.

[BigCap696]

nice captain combos man!!

[CPTHAP]

Pretty cool X-Factor infinite.

[Arcadiac08]

I noticed that if i end a corner combo with otg shield into stars and stripes i get alittle bit more damage. have you noticed this too?

[chikkengreece06]

are you mashing that charging star?

[mechienes]

for that otg what shield slash is that

[PokemonBr4wl]

@mechienes Light one. It works on the air & on the ground

[Arcadiac08]

@mechienes light shield

[PokemonBr4wl]

Well, I´ve watched this video & i´m still amazed. One of my new teams, it´s main it´s Cap, along with Trish & Joe, i just have a question, which assis is the best of Cap for do Combos? I have now with Cap Charging star. Also, you think that a good start for a combo would be one that confuse my opponent, like mine that i use Trish Low Voltage & with Cap a Backflip, he´s stunned & i start the combo.

This combos are amazing, i just expect more like the one that do Xuses with Vergil/Wesker/Dante.

[vaststrider]

and where is the tutorial by now i wish to see.

[kaio85]

they usually fall out if i try to loop as much as you do with cap?

[BrawlersUpTv]

@kaio85 Hmm, well on midgets you may have to modify some of these combos. I actually have some nice combos I use against midgets specifically & some other slick combos I haven't got around to recording yet. On normal sized characters or bigger all of these combos are possible. Note: Your timing may be off! Throwing the shield a moment too late & or allowing a opponent to float too high/too low after one slash may cause the next slash or move to be off. Nice quick tight inputs are key.

[AshleyLovesBanks]

I love you!!

[BrawlersUpTv]

@AshleyLovesBanks I love you too Ashley. Awww snap, I got a fan club lmao.

[thezxshadow4you]

@BrawlersUpTv I love you both

[Akabane69]

That was sooo godlike~ I'm currently trying out Vergil as point and Iron-Man as anchor and I don't know who to use as my last. What do you, or anybody who reads this think of adding Captain America into the team? If I did, I feel like Captain would be better as a point and making Vergil the middle. Suggestions?

[BrawlersUpTv]

@Akabane69 Thanks man, glad you enjoyed. I've been maining/playing Cap since Marvel Super Heroes. In UMvC3 Cap is a good character more so than any of his previous incarnations. He is very adaptable because he isn't totally locked into just one style of play, so he can find a slot in any team strategy for the most part. Cap can definitely be on point or anchor. So long story short, you team idea is probably very doable. It just about figuring out your strategy and what works for you.

[Akabane69]

@BrawlersUpTv Sweet, thanks for the tip.

[Heed1198]

@Akabane69 I personally like vergil as my last he fucking rapes

[Akabane69]

@Heed1198 Mmm I see, I guess lv3 X-factor and meter does scream Vergil abuse in some ways haha

[SACK0FDUNG]

im so made that they took out the heavy shield slash loop bnb but i guess the otg makes up for it

[xx6lostsoul6xx]

inputs for all of these would be amazing, also on the last combo you did against sent...did you tiger knee that last OTG shield slash? or is it all about screen positioning? i tried to imitate what you did (against a normal sized character not sent) and i couldnt do a jumping OTG shield slash because it always went over them

[BrawlersUpTv]

@xx6lostsoul6xx You can definitely hit regular size opposition using that combo. It is a bit of positioning of course, but it's also being able to throw the shield at it lowest point once you jump off the ground. Practice it in training mode on different characters and such, that way you will know how to throw the shield based on your positioning. I've pretty much mastered it, and rarely miss when going for that combo these days. It'll get hella easy, trust me. Good Luck!

[lilcam205]

Having some inputs would be nice but great job, I recently picked up Capt and he's working out great I can do pretty much most of his shield slash combos and regular otg shield slash combos online which is big because online is pretty laggy and me using the old ps3 analog controller doesn't help much but he's simple enough to use and is very damaging making his effective.

[Tatsunical]

As a Cap mainer, this vid has been very useful. I'd really like to see the tutorial your considering too. Thanks guys!

[mnm121314]

captain a. is overpowered in this game

[jappy88]

Great video. I'm starting to main Cap now and this video helps extend my combos. The xfactor charging star is a first that i've seen.. Keep the Cap videos coming

[Qtflip]

At the near end of your combo to sentinel, you could've just used the infinite rather than the hyper. Damn!!! OpVery nice work :)

[Ser9eiS]

God damn, this game is broken. One little mistake and your hero will die after opponent's long combo.

[ephekt420]

@Ser9eiS

Losing a "hero" in this game is like losing 1/3 life in any other game. Not terribly odd, provided you play at even a semi-competitive level.

[TrogzTheTroll]

@ephekt420 It's not just losing 1/3 of your life. You lose an assist, a possible DHC, and etc. It's like if there was another fighting game and for each 1/3 of life you lost you also lost certain moves

[Panther7718]

This video's awesome. I'd love to see a tutorial video, or annotations of the combo pathway in this one would be stellar too.

[Jkhaotic9934]

DO THE TUTORIAL!

[gmoolah804]

yo from :39-:40 you did M.cs xx L.cs or just 2 low charging stars

[CrazyOdell]

Good shit mike

[thiefofpeace]

god hes so op

[mondazan]

Great stuff bro, gonna work on some of this thx for the upload

[cambomeat]

Captain America can otg after level 3 but too bad it only works in the corner unless you have level 3 X-Factor.

[key495]

Think I just found my point character

[styx87]

@key495 really did you?

[ZzFactorzZ]

hey, when I try the combo at 1:27, the air S whiffs, does it not work if you start with the standard abc? It becomes a good reset opportunity though lol

[Dofarewell]

Wow this is really good, I could use some of these combos now, awesome performance too, I'll subscribe in order to see more videos like this :)

[BOBBYLIGHT123PsN]

can u put the inputs in for that last combo??? lol

[RisingGravity]

Captain America has my respect.

[funniecow1]

Inputs please, I want to pick up this character

[Thurissan]

Respect.

[charlieahart]

He's broke.

[cscorpio1985]

Thank you for the video, im trying to main him this time around as it look more viable than last time. Can you do an in depth tutorial for combos and strategies?? My team right now is Cap,Wolvy,Hawk and its a hit or miss right now on online matches. Thank you anyways, your video will improve my Cap.

[AsianBM55]

Damn, that attempted transition desyncs it a bit.

[BrawlersUpTv]

@AsianBM55 lol its not the transition, that particular combo clip would not act right it seemed like every time we tried to capture it lol. We got so tired of doing that combo over and over we just said f*ck it let it rock. My bad bruh, sometimes in life lol...

[GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0]

@BrawlersUpTv I think Cap was a great character in vanilla but in the corner he can be kinda tricky. He does have a corner relaunch combo but other then that I see no problem with him at all. Now with his OTG shield he is in baby mode something like DOOM's hard knock down S. Both of them never needed those tools and it defeats the purpose of mastering his epic shield slash juggles just like mastering DOOMs air zig zag relaunch combos which I believe are there default play styles.

[GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0]

Worst part about this video is none of these combos are hard and take a ton of damage! That's why its hard to show "respect" for Captain America players now.

[SeattleGameNut]

@GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0 Right, most of the characters combos are easy once you get the idea down of each characters BnB as a matter of fact i think Magneto and Iron man is easier than Cap. Its hard to "respect" people will poor judgement like you.

[BrawlersUpTv]

@GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0 I feel you lol, but I think that is an unfair assessment of Cap. I would beg to differ some of these combos do have a degree of difficulty to them and are challenging to setup in combat. They look simple, but the nature of the character is just that. Cap still has to work for his damage and he is still out classed by other in cast who do things better. Cap can fight in all aspects but doesn't truly own any one aspect. Spacing/timing/positioning rule his whole being.

[BrawlersUpTv]

@BrawlersUpTv Some characters can setup easily and move however they choose on screen, Cap doesn't own that privilege. Some characters in this game are Gods. Cap is indeed good, but he is still only a Titan. A gate keeper between the low and high tier. Besides Dante, Zero, vergil combos are fisherprice easy. Difficulty of combos doesn't determine how legit a character is or isn't. It is their viability against everyone else. Cap definitely doesn't own everyone alone, he just owns bad players.

[GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0]

@BrawlersUpTv I have alot of experience against Cap due to my friend maining him religiously since the start of vanilla. As far as I know Cap can damn near full screen punish anything with Hyper Charging Star so no random whiffs or supers unless you have a counter super. That cartwheel with some assist can make retarded unblockable set ups and he does a ton of damage for a simple BNB if you ask me. I play Cap and DOOM in vanilla myself. I liked them there but they are way to scrubby in Ultimate.

[BrawlersUpTv]

@GalaxYSmokaH4Trilli0 Lol true, true, you are entitled to your own way of thinking. I just don't see it that way. & his hyper charging star doesn't whiff punish everything. It has some startup which means it can get punished. try that against Strider & it will not turnout good. & these are BnB's for me I had no idea so many people would see this lol. Most people didn't even know this and even better stuff was possible until now. Cap cannot juggle like Vanilla anymore either as far as I can tell.

[bryri541]

Can you put the inputs on there?

[BrawlersUpTv]

@bryri541 Damn man, that could be a bit much lol. Let me get back to you on that one.

[bryri541]

@bryri541 How about the combo that starts @ 1:09?

[00Paisan00]

Good stuff. I always mained Cap in vanilla and even though i feel hes cheap at times now. Hes too much fun. Anyway i have a hard time with his air L.shield slash otg. I play on a pad so not sure if that has to do with it. But is it easier to land than jump and shield slash away from the oponent or jump straight up and shield slash? not sure if im clear. either way appreciate it and keep up the good work, soldier!

[BrawlersUpTv]

@00Paisan00 No, it has nothing to do with playing on pad though I play stick. Pad Vs Stick is just a preference at best. I understand what you mean, I had a little issue mastering it too before I figured it out. Don't jump back, it puts him out of position to follow up & makes the cam do weird things. As soon as you knockdown, you should already be holding up. That way as soon a he touches the ground he hops again and you throw. practice throwing the shield at its lowest point, thats the trick.

[ZidaTheBlazing]

This is really good stuff, but I'm finding it not working well for me in matches because of corners. I'm currently using a combo utilizing Deadpool assist that only gets me around 600k damage, but works in corners.

You'd be awesome if you made another cap video that uses otg assists to get rid of cap's corner problem. Of course, you're awesome either way, but you'd be more awesome.

[BrawlersUpTv]

@ZidaTheBlazing Yes, Caps game is definitely mid screen, but he can still do work in the corner. My personal team is Cap, Doom, Hawkeye. I often use hidden missiles to get good damage and OTG in the corner for Cap. I did two vids using combos you will recognize from this vid only they have assist attached. I got over 1mil damage No Xfactor. Also Your combo could be more valuable then you think, hitstun deterioration plays a factor. Starting a combo w/ L will do way less dmg then starting w/ H.

[BrawlersUpTv]

Respond to this video... Watch those vids and let me know, if that doesn't help maybe I can come up with something like a mini Cap tutorial or something.

[ZidaTheBlazing]

@BrawlersUpTv Thanks. I'll have to get around to watching those as soon as I can. Right now, you're the most useful source on Cap I've found. I'm thinking he's going to be pretty popular this time around.

[BrawlersUpTv]

@ZidaTheBlazing Thanks, I just made this vid for fun. I think he will too. I also think more people want to play him, they just don't know how to correctly use his tools to setup things correctly. Or they don't recognize his strength and weaknesses or understand his potentials and limitations, so the only see him halfway. I may do a few more things for Cap, we'll see how if goes. My friends and I are kind of ready to focus on KOF13 and play this secondary, but like I said we'll see.

[Figure1984]

@ZidaTheBlazing In corners, my combos usually go something like - hit confirm jumping S, MMHS, MMH double jump MdHS, spencer wire grapple assist, HS (relaunch), MMdHS, l shield slash and finish with charging star. Idk if this'll only work with spencer's assist, but it nets me like 750k damage IIRC.

@00Paisan00 if i remember right you can TK the light shield slash. dunno if that helps you, but putting that out there anyway

[BrawlersUpTv]

No problem answering any questions anyone may have, just at least read the description first. It may have been answered already. Again, thank you for watching. Much respect...
