You should make a video of MvC2 vertical assists and why they're meta. Specifically, commando vs cyclops, and why psylocke is useful for magneto. I think a lot of people see these assists everywhere but aren't really sure about the differences between one and another.
@Nether23422 жыл бұрын
Community calls them anti air assists and they’re good because they’re hella invincible and assists are very spammable in mvc2. The strengths of each are: -psylockes sets up combos and incoming guard breaks - Cyclops is a much better overall character than psylocke or capt commando so if the rest of your team dies he’s more likely to get a come back, while still providing an invincible assist. -captain commandos assist is actually broken and the best assist in the game by a lot. It’s huge, very active, and absurdly invincible. Downside is captain commando as a character is one of the worst characters in the game.

I know a lot of people complained back in the day about the game only having 4 attack buttons, that it made it too simplified. But imo, there’s just something so satisfying about pressing the same button twice in a chain combo, especially at the speed you can chain one normal into the next in MvC2. There really hasn’t been another game before or since with a similar feeling from just pressing buttons. You have some pseudo Target Combos in MvC3 that kinda does the trick, but it’s just not the same.

You might like Under Night: In-Birth. Those kinds of combos are usually called "rekkas", and UNI has a million of them. Very different game, but rekkas are just as satisfying.
@CrossfacePanda2 жыл бұрын
@@kekker_ I actually don’t jive with UNI at all. I generally don’t like games where each individual hit is low damage, and thus requires really long combos to do any significant damage at all. It’s why I like Marvel: big damage up front, even from stray hits, then squeeze out extra damage if you can and want to put in the effort (I don’t). Also I just don’t like the general feel of combos in UNI; there’s just something very unsatisfying with how juggles work, dunno what it is. Not hating on the game though, it’s well put together, and I get wanting more people to try it. And while I know UNI has Rekka characters, I’m unsure what that had to do with my original comment; maybe I wasn’t clear what I was referring to. I was talking about Normal strings that cancel into each other via double button presses, like Medium to Heavy in MvC2 being on the same button, or Dr Dooms M-M arial string in MvC3. And unless we’ve learned very different definitions (which is certainly possible), those aren’t Rekkas.

1. Switch character kick to cancel off hypercombo or escape from infinity physical attacks from the opponent. 2. Summoning assist or using one long range attack to block or cancel off opponent hypercombo. Then you hypercombo them while one of your characters acting as the scapegoat. 3. Using compatible characters assist to execute infinity physical attacks. 4. All the characters are to be group in ground, anti air, air, dash and etc types for character assist types and their own specialized. 5. After your opponent has finish using his/her hypercombo, you can use your hypercombo as they might be vulnerable if they don't block after that. 6. If you are able to jump behind of your opponent while they missed their hypercombo onto you, you can use your hypercombo to counter them. 7. If your opponent left with only 2 characters, when the moment he/she summoning out his/her assist, you should use team hypercombo to try to kill off his/her assist character.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but I remember that you can only DHC specifically while the “super flash background” is active, which is important for some characters whose supers have enders that happen after the super flash has already passed. Cammy’s air super is the first example I can think of here. It’s also possible I may be confusing that with another game, but I figured it’s worth getting the clarification.

One thing I want to mention that most people never talk about is a mechanic specific to Silver Samurai. Silver Samurai's power up supers for Ice, Fire and Lightning can actually stack 3 up to 3 times. My best friend Alex discovered this years ago in the lab with Silver Samurai. So each super on their own gives Silver Samurai a boost to either his speed, damage, or defense, but when you do that super again it increases that effect. So for example a 3 stacks of Ice, Silver Samurai gets super armor like Mech-Zangief and cannot be knocked out of some of his attacks like he would be normally. So if you do his ice super where he slams the ground and pins the characters down, even if someone like Iron Man does their Proton Cannon super, Silver Samurai will just tank the damage and still complete the super thus locking Iron Man to the floor for a major punish. The Fire Super is probably the most nutty one though, because it boosts his damage output and can make his shurikens and even his fire super lethal in situations where normally it wouldn't be. Try this out for yourself in training mode and tell me what you think. Also credit goes to Alex Alvarez for finding this, I'm sure he isn't the only player who has found this, but like I said, I haven't heard of anyone talking about this.
