Wesker undoubtedly has the advantage on Phoenix... until you throw Dark Phoenix into the mix. Then, they're pretty much even, maybe with Phoenix having a slight edge. Her normals shooting projectiles will stop a good number of rushes and give her ample opportunity to kill Wesker in four to five hits, tops. She also has an 80-86-hit combo without X-Factor that's fairly easy to pull off and will kill any character in the roster on hit confirm.

I am working on a new MvC3 team known as team "Bad Handjobs"

Felicia, X-23, Hsien-Ko

She-Hulk as a backup character for the team.

I actually am gay, so that doesn't affect me at all. Try harder.
So if you're a gay Phoenix player, does that mean that you're...

...flaming?

I'm currently setting up a thrid team:

MODOK/Tron/Jill -(For now)

Good team or great team?
I don't understand that team at all. I don't understand why you're putting MODOK on point. I don't understand what assists Jill has that could benefit MODOK. I don't understand what DHCs you could have on this that would be any good. I don't understand how this team could deal with Magneto/Wesker teams, Phoenix teams, Sentinel teams, Amaterasu teams, Shoto teams, or anything else really. So no, not good or great.

Hey Serris, high 5 for gay guys who play highs!

Seriously Sentinel is actually a sex robot, rocket punch in the bum x1000.

He actually says "Hyper sexual force" before his hyper too.

Hard drive.....well that is self explanatory.

If his floppy disk is only three and a half inches, I am completely unimpressed.

On a less sexually-charged note, time to try and get to 3rd Lord.

It was a joke team Serris. I feel like Arthur does not have much going for him, but I dunno who I would replace him with

Out of the entire roster, I think Arthur and Hsien-Ko are the two worst characters in the game.
I don't know who's third worst though. It's just that those 2 really stand out as bad to me.

1st Lord Status, In terms of worst characters. Arthur isn't even bad. Tbh no one is this game is terrible they just have the wrong people on their team, and wrong assist's to support them.

He compensates for it by fisting. I also don't think I need to talk about the frying pan.

And who uses floppy disks anymore, seriously. Are you trapped in 1995 or something?

Computer sex jokes are all about the dongle now.

Simply stunning my good man.
You're the only one who's stunning to me, my darling Sentinel-kun~.

Chris and MODOK are both pretty bad imo, I'd say 3rd worst is a tossup between the two of them. Haggar is also pretty bad just because he gets zoned so hard, so he'd probably be pretty low too. This is more of an issue for him than Hulk even since Hulk at least has a projectile and super armored moves.

Arthur is not bad. >:
Nobody is "bad" in the "unviable" sense of the word in this game because the balancing is too damn good. Minato just meant "bad" as in "not as good as everyone else".

MODOK's voice makes me wanna punch somebody.
If you think I've evolved beyond the joys of having an irritating voice, you'd be wrong.

I was thinking Chris too as 3rd worst. I haven't seen much of MODOK yet.
Chris is still pretty good though. I'm just having a hard time thinking of other characters to fit for 3rd.

Yeah, this is what I meant.

I think Arthur is only bad because he doesn't have as much going for him as other characters. His zoning is his strength which isn't that great and his mobility is bad so he can't runaway well to keep his distance. Whenever his Gold Armor timer reaches zero, he's good as dead and can die by a DHC combo after OTGing him.

Hsien-Ko has similar problems as well.

Savon, you should definitely keep trying to improve with Viper. I think you're onto something with her. Also, I think you should give Phoenix a try and see if you like her or not.

if you cant keep full screen distance as arthur, you're doing something wrong.
LOL Have you ever played Minato? He doesn't do a lot of things wrong. This is MARVEL, characters can get in unless your name is Cable. Arthur has no good way of stopping people from coming from above and once you're in on him, you're in. he has no way of getting away since he has the worse mobility in the game. Plus he gets teleport *****.

You do know that once he throw's his **** he cant block at all till he lands right. So it's a free Full Screen Projectile Supers. Since what he throws pretty much doesn't go over 5 durability points.

I disagree. I think Chris is worse than Arthur tbh. Arthur can at least cause a bullet hell like effect with his projectiles, like if Spiral had half of her brain and four of her arms removed and then she was only allowed to throw swords and knives at certain times and her teleport and aerial mobility and anti-air grab and part of her health were removed and OH MY GOD SPIRAL I MISS YOU SO MUCH WHY THE **** AM I STILL PLAYING THIS GAME.

I was rereading an issue of Cable and Deadpool (great comic series btw) and one of the early story arcs deals with Cable's psionic powers growing exponentially since he purged the techno-organic virus from his body (not surprising since his mother was a clone of Jean Grey). The growth of his powers was so great that it was eventually going to kill him, so in order to save himself he lobotomized part of his brain, putting him in a coma for a few issues, to save his life. Deadpool then had to find an alien symbiote similar in nature to the techno-organic virus and bond it to Cable's body in order to simulate his previous life and prevent his powers from getting out of control again. This eventually led to modern continuity Cable, who has almost no powers save for being a strong, well trained soldier who has lots of guns and having very very faint mental abilities (like being able to cloak his mind from other telepaths).

Comic books are complicated.

Anyway, that's what Chris reminds me of in a way - a lobotomized Cable. He has a lot of the same tools that defined Cable, but none of the ones that made Cable such an incredible force in MvC2. He has guns, but none of them are quite like Cable's gun. He has grenades but they don't control as much space and they just kind of suck. He has no DP, and no real way to control the space above him at all. And compared to AHVB, Chris might as well not have any supers. Chris certaintly isn't unplayable, but he's definitely no Cable and a large majority of the cast are better than him.

if you cant keep full screen distance as arthur, you're doing something wrong.
Or you're playing against one of like ten characters in this game who can teleport?

All Chris needs is Super Jumping 236M and Full Screen 236H. Chris pretty much settles for chipping people out. He's really not suppose to even go in just chip, chip, chip. He has pretty sick resets though.


Cable on the other hand. Had so much space control. Plus not that many people could even teleport, hell a lot of people couldn't even air dash or anything in mvc2. His DP was okay, but when he was an assist with psimitar jesus. Loved it. All Cable needed was like 2-3 bars, then hit confirm or punished a whiff attack AHVB. TKAHVB. Then kill off that person, guard break the next person AVHB.

I totally suck at this game and I need to come to terms with it. My ability to combo is virtually nonexistent. I drop the easiest combos, and I am absolutely horrendous when it comes to using assists to help with combos.

BAHHHH HUMMMM BUGGGG!!!! More importantly my defensive game is even worse. One dude did the same combo on me 5 times in a row because I did not block correctly.

for what it's worth, chris can super jump and shoot downwards, which is a pretty good angle in this game. i think he just needs to block well and have good assists and he can deal quite a lot of chip. its not AHVB but at least his super where he shoots a bunch of stuff at diff angles can force people to block as long as he gets the rocket launch upwards

i stall people out with that hahhah

but yeah he looks pretty bad most of the time

Chris with like the hardest hitting corner combo's. So good. I love the Magnum OTG relaunches. Though his easiest combo is like what. L, Cr.M, H, -> H, 623L, 623A2. lol

Well... I think I do a lot of things wrong in matches that cost me lol.
As much as I want to say it's because of online against people, there's a lot I need to work on.

Just do what I do and go into training mode and face the CPU with health recovery on.
Choose whichever characters you need matchup experience on and keep playing until you get used to blocking and hit-confirming/comboing.

Anyway, I might be changing my Zero team up. I'm keeping Hsien-Ko just because I think she's awesome and I want to find something cool with her to make her better. I might switch Sentinel out. It's kind of funny how Hsien-Ko has the highest health on that team.

Properly timed Assists + properly spaced projectiles keep everything except teleports and invincible dashes out.

Yes. I know this. I use Arthur. <_>

@Gates: I forgot about teleporting characters loooool

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure Lei-Lei has 900k health while Sent has 905k.
