It occurred to me last night that I need to play sets with people instead of 1-off games like ranked. I'm gonna start finding lobbies/player matches but if anyone on here wants to play some sets I am game.

I realized that playing a single game makes me tend to do really stupid poo poo just hoping it will work since I can get away with it sometimes on randoms and bad players. I'm hoping that playing the same player for a while will force me to do some smarter stuff since the other player should learn my bullcrap and punish me for it.


Congrats. I like to hold the joystick using only my thumb and forefinger with my thumb at 5 o'clock and my forefinger at 11 o'clock but do whatever works best for you.

PSN or XBL? I need partners to play and I can never find Dorkasaurus rex on when I'm not on Neflix.

Send a friend request my way, I regularly get into 30+ game sets with one of my friends and having another playing to go long sets with would be great for more practice and character variety.

Gah, I actually ran into Maximilian last night and completely choked. Didn't help that the east coast to west coast connection was absolute butt :smith:

Also, anyone having a problem on Xbox Live where the list of recently encountered players doesn't update for days at a time? Marvel is the only game I play online, so I don't know if the problem's exclusive to that game or across all of Live, but I remember in vanilla being able to block people right after a match if their connection was poo poo or they were just really unfun to play against, and now I can't.

Oh, and if you're around the east coast, my gamertag's "OneMillionBees" and I'm 4th lord. Feel free to add.

I've noticed the same thing. If you want to message/block someone press select or whatever to pull up the gamertag at the victory/loss screen. I don't know why the tags don't show up in the recent players list.

Fraudulent is a strong word considering that grand finals was 3-2.

Justin's team is Spencer/Vergil/Frank, and he doesn't always level Frank up because he doesn't need to. He does have a setup to level Frank up with Spencer combo, DHC swords into combo ending with DP+M, tag Frank, camera.

Chris also kept starting Morrigan on point instead of DHC'ing into mirror mode when it's safe, and didn't play too much fireball lockdown either. He's still trying to play more rushdown with her

Well the grand finals were pot split anyway, not that that changes it that much. I think Chris G's team still has a lot of room to grow, and it'll be really interesting to see him continue using the third character on the team as a counterpick.

Approaching with Skrull against characters like Doom and Task is my main issue, because they cover space so well with their projectiles or are just plain dangerous to confront in air-to air.

Doom is honestly my favorite Skrull matchup. Just dash forward and scare the poo poo out of him, make him corner himself and wait. All of his projectiles are incredibly slow so you can command grab him on reaction and if he is superjump projectile spamming you can just line him up and catch him in his slow rear end recovery frames. Also you can introduce his footdive to your superarmor.

Plus he can't play his stay in the air forever then foot dive game because of the threat of meteor smash.

This is all super useful. I'm trying to learn Skrull to swap out someone on my team, but all of his attacks have such odd timing compared to the other characters I've played. Plus divepunch doesn't work as well on everyone else as it does on me :smith:
