Smashers are Too Good @ MvC3

[VSC.D-Torr]

It was a prominant tool in MvC2 for Storm DHC Hailstorm to punish assists and could work the same way. Use a quick startup Hyper then DHC Hailstorm. I could add more to this but Smooth Criminal nailed it.

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

The most important thing about the Hailstorm DHC is IMO that it ****ing wrecks the assists, and Morrigan needs her Missiles/Vajra.

 

[#HBC | ZoZo]

It reduces the oh so obvious startup, that's why you want it :v

 

[da K.I.D.]

Xonar has the important point nailed.

Storm on point isn't touching morrigan but that dhc fks up so many days its insane.

Also note that when justin pooed on chris g it was also because he got in on her quickly and made sure he did 950k in one combo, even if it was off a throw.

The storm dhc was a back up plan incase plan a above didn't work out.

 

[BSP]

I'm starting to get annoyed with seeing Morrigan in videos :\

 

[VSC.D-Torr]

Xonar has the important point nailed.

So did Smooth Criminal and myself.

When we specified DHC Hailstorm, we explaining it as if it was common knowledge that DHC reduces startup. Xonar's post does help though since a lot of people forget that aspect of DHC'ing.

no the only thing helpful was what i said sry

 

[da K.I.D.]

So.... Any smashers at ufgt this weekend?

Also, who you guys got you're money on?

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

UFGT? Who's there that's worth noting?

 

[VSC.D-Torr]

UFGT is one of the "True" majors in the EVO season, so I'm pretty sure competition will be strong there. I know Noel Brown, Fooblat, Chris G, Dieminion, Justin Wong, and Flocker are there. I don't think West Coast is there other than the EG crew.

 

[da K.I.D.]

I feel like col.cc should be there too.

Also, as good as he is, fooblat seems out of place in that line up

 

[VSC.D-Torr]

He's the only one that hasn't won a major in any game, but he's a threat so I put him there. I also forgot DJ Huoshen, he's there too.

Edit: Marvel Semis is about to start: http://www.twitch.tv/leveluplive

 

[da K.I.D.]

I feel like haggar is the kind of character that you always have a chance to win with, but won't ever be able to beat enough smart players in a row consistently to win a tournament

 

[VSC.D-Torr]

Marvel Top 8 should be hype tomorrow. Really looking forward to the Spider-Man player that took a few names at UFGT. Name escapes me atm.

Who's still in it? Where can I look at this stuff? I was too busy to watch the livestream.

Who knocked ChrisG into losers? Also, Viscant? Swag. That Dieminion segment? REALLY Swag. Any major streamer recording this stuff for youtube?

 

[clowsui]

leveluplive has a terrible reputation for slow uploads sadly

 

[Smooth Criminal]

Briiiiiiiiiiightsiiiiiiiiiiide

Smooth Criminal

 

[da K.I.D.]

Who the hell is brightside? And why do I get the feeling like somebodys going to pop up randomly and be like 'i played smash with him for 2 years'

Also those guys don't stand a chance against jetm in skullgirls

 

[stingers]

brightside is a chicago player, plays spidey, idk the rest of his team tho honestly

 

[The Nameless Wanderer]

Brightside visits the other Ultimate thread in the Light house.

Good stuff for getting in top 8.

 

[TL?]

Yo brightside! I was live monstering so hard at UFGT8! It was insanely hype at the venue everytime he even touched a character.

 

[da K.I.D.]

If any vids get put up to yt, post them here asap please

 

[DtJ Composer]

I got 17th in the Divekick tournament.

Got Fraud Detected in pools winners by Floe



Also Brightside v Viscant was in my roommate's pool. That match was so hype, Brightside had all of chicago yelling for him in this cramped little pool area lol
Brightside plays Spiderman/Dormammu/Wesker

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

So I looked at the official SRK tier list for Ultimate... Why the **** is Dormammu so high?

Then again, I shouldn't really trust them, as the support tier list that goes as reliable has Doom below top. Dude. Doom has the single best assist in the game by a wide margin. Yes, I get that his DHCs and Alpha counters are meh... Hidden Missiles, **** off.

 

[#HBC | ZoZo]

Because Dorm is REALLY FRIGGIN GOOD, that's why.

 

[The Nameless Wanderer]

Dorm has like, amazing everything. Damage, assists, Supers, hitboxes, mixups, and camping/anti camping.

The only thing I can think of that's a negative is his size, but the dude is so mobile.

 

[Budget Player Cadet_]

I know he's good, but I haven't really seen much of him. Most of what I've seen is him getting shut down by Morrigan.

 

[stingers]

dorm doesnt even get shutdown by morrigan lol

 

[choknater]

not even phoenix, apparently.

 

[DtJ Composer]

Those fresh random chaotic flames mang

 

[VSC.D-Torr]

Dorm is alright.

 

[choknater]

you like that?

 

[BSP]

Those fresh random chaotic flames mang

I imagine that would do a ****load of damage to morrigan
