i was looking in the character profiles since i just completed arcade mode and gallery 100%
and even it says that sentinel is the stupidest character.
also best ending is she-hulks and hagger's. Tron, modok, deadpool and task master were cool 2.

 

[Redact]

well you can play keep away if you need to, but sent has amazing overhead pressure game and an unreactable low to launcher with c.M > s.S. if you get used to doing consistent j.H mixups with flight mode or rising j.H's you'll have people always blocking overhead and its just too hard to anti air the foot.

You wont be able to do any of this stuff online, even the slight delay ruins a lot of his game with rising j.H being laggy.

All I can help you with here is finding out what you have trouble with and fixing it somehow.

 

[Hotdog]

The slightest delay ruins the whole game, can't play properly with any lag at all.

Yea, Rising Air H to Air S works for me everytime

Shopping Centre Fun we had last weekend

First day people started to use haggar assist to **** everything

 

[xXArrowXx]

aaah how did i not know about this tourny

 

[KuroganeHammer]

I can do my combos alright online.

The timings not that hard. >___>

If you play like.... Sentinel......

 

[Redact]

The timings not that hard. >___>

lets see you do this online with sent, this is my bnb (slightly edited at the start based on what I hit with)

*when in flight/jumping in* j.H > j.S > s.M > s.S > j.M > j.M > j.H > flight > j.L > j.M > j.H > j.S > L rocket punch > HSF > Dante Jam Assist > s.S > j.M > j.H > j.S > L rocket punch > That ball super (forgot the name)

With the wave dashing you need in the middle (if its mid screen) along with heaps of the links, its not too simple online lol.

 

[Hotdog]

How much damage does that do Redact?

 

[Darkwing SykeDuk]

get better combos son

 

[Redact]

How much damage does that do Redact?

If done right, should do like 965k

 

[xXArrowXx]

thats intense..
just x-factor and do 1/4 of that work.

 

[Redact]

don't waste yo x factor

play 2 win sooooooonnnnn

 

[undead_moose]

If your playing to win you would still be using x factor =\

 

[Hotdog]

Yea, play to win using XF.

 

[TakFR]

If you're playing to win you should hold onto it until you really need it =P

 

[Redact]

If you're playing to win you should hold onto it until you really need it =P

pretty much this is it.

If you want to win, you dont use your x-factor to make a combo easier, especially if its such a simple combo

 

[Hotdog]

Nah man, XF level 1 Sent. Kill all 3 before it runs out, easy done.

 

[Redact]

Don't need XF to 0-death the entire cast. (8

 

[KuroganeHammer]

Lv 3 x-factor on x-23 = **** imo

She has this ridiculously easy loop that'll kill at least one person. lol

Sent ain't that broken imo/.

 

[TakFR]

Lvl 3 X-Factor kills at least one person with any character >_>

 

[KuroganeHammer]

Lvl 3 X-Factor kills at least one person with any character >_>

Perhaps, but X-23's takes hardly any effort.

It's literally QCF + L with semi decent timing.

 

[Leisha]

Hyper Sentinel Forceeeeeeeee

 

[M]

Perhaps, but X-23's takes hardly any effort.

Except for the fact you have to set up the Neck slice to begin with. Sure that's not hard either, but several other characters have possibly better heavier hitting options with easier setups.

I'd hardly expect any team to have X-23 sitting in the back of a team (or any similar situation) anyway. She's not worth the lvl 3 xf imo.

Eh.

It depends. People use different strategies. Surely X-23 being one of the fastest characters in the game can warrent her being used for X-factor.

Meh-eh-heh. cbf arguing I'm tired kthx. <3

 

[xXArrowXx]

hey so i was thinking.. wow there are alot of good characters.. (i just think it cause i dont know much about the game yet i guess..)

phoenix
hagger
trish
dante
hulk
tron
ama
captain
wolve
x-23
h-ko
morrigan
akuma
doom
magneto
chris
wesker
taskmaster
viper
chun li

thats alot lol i am sure their r more tho =P

crap characters so far:
joe
modok... maybe
dorammu... maybe

 

[Hotdog]

Dormammu is a good keep away character

 

[Zero]

More like

Discuss.

 

[Leisha]

pooor joe.. :<

I'll still use him though since he's chibi :3

 

[M]

Dorm hits incredibly hard. I have Dorm's giant flaming balls of death consume teams in xfactor3, he's so good lol.

as far as bad characters go, I'm gonna have to say the ones who got the short straws were the short characters (not Ammy ofc). Joe might have some kinda weird untapped potential, but specs only, he has no damage, no range, and your standard vitality, backed up by weird specials that seem like they require really careful planning.

Oh and CapAm feels a bit lacking imo.

 

[xXArrowXx]

i feel hes got good range.
shield is good.
charging star is good 2.

wolf and x-23 are short when ducking so thats good against spamming sentinials XD but yeah short characters get wrecked if u combo them XD

 

[CAOTIC]

just got back from an mvc tourney here -- wolverine -- watch that space -- ppl here can so see him being better than sent

i left before it finished but i'm just going to assume toxy won with wesker dante and random 3rd char

everyone should go to the thq sponsored tourney in melb this weekend if you can

also i though redact would do better but he was too predictable with assists and got double-KO'd on two important occasions

nah chuns bad, Ive picked up wesker and im doing better already without even knowing him rofl

 

[CAOTIC]

but she died twice before she even came out -- that's not her fault

 

[Redact]

Wesker/dante/sent is just a better team overall man, i was doing so **** after with them it was redic, i didnt even know how wesker really works and i did hugeee

 

[Hotdog]

Yea, people in Brissy are saying Wesk/Dante/Sent is prob one of the best teams around atm.

I use Wolv/Storm/Sent, lets hope Storms top tier so I can be a tier *****.

 

[xXArrowXx]

inb4 dante's peak jokes.

samurai shot wesker??? :D

 

[M]

Storm is averageish. Learning curve is much higher in this game compared to Sent, Dante, etc.

 

[KuroganeHammer]

Chun bad? lol

Poor Joe. In saying that, he's so much better than his TvC appearance, so I'm doubting he'll be low tier like last time.

Storm is averageish? Eeeehhh. I feel she's quite fast with a lot of big (and fast) hitbox's.

That Ice storm attack thing does a tonne of chip damage too.

It's way too early to talk tier lists anyways imo.

 

[M]

Poor Joe. In saying that, he's so much better than his TvC appearance, so I'm doubting he'll be low tier like last time.

Hilarious. He's the last character I can even see landing a hit on Sentinel, let alone taking one down.

Just cause he's better than he used to be in a VS game doesn't make him any more viable in this game.
