Writing the "Dear Victor" letter made me think that I should run some sort of "reverse clockw0rk" team with Doom in the front and Strider as anchor.

I was assuming that the recovery animation on Maximum Vergil where he sheathes the sword again was cancellable but the uploader implies in the comments that it's not, doesn't that make the move unsafe on hit if you use it while you're close in? I must be missing something here because that'd make the move terrible and nobody else has commented on it.

I've seen it hit and end with the enemy right under vergil's feet and it's still safe. I don't know where you could get the idea that it's unsafe on hit.

Well, given that Maximum Spider has a very specific element that is lacking in the other moves (short of Phantom Dance looking like how Maximum Spider used to look), it's pretty obvious that (A) Vergil's super looks absolutely nothing like Maximum Spider and (B) Maximum Wesker is a dumb name in the first place because the name of the move isn't Maximum Spider-Man. At least be consistent with your nicknames.

But yes, using the wrong move names confuses people in this thread who aren't stream monsters or 4chan/reddit trolls and who do actually refer to things by how they are named ingame. It's not like there isn't already a set standard for these things that are easily available to literally anybody who has the game.

Seth Killian was the first to call it "Maximum Wesker"

Hey just in case people are looking to use Nova tomorrow I'm gonna post some scrub observations :c00l:

First: everything he does is unsafe. everything.

Second: you can make it safe using grav barrier and jav attack and then do the move, or better, use an assist.

Third: the only move of his that you can make "safe" by itself is human rocket punch M or H mid air as they will go through blocking opponents if they aren't in the corner.

Fourth: it's really easy to get 600-700k with him one bar.

Fifth: It's really annoying how hard it is to pick up opponents with F+H after hitting them with air.S. Basically, if Air S only hits them once or twice, don't bother, just otg into super with DPM L.

Sixth: you can pick up your opponent with strider's assist from almost everywhere with DPM L into super, but if you're half screen away or so you can dash F+H into full combo.

Seventh: can't seem to figure out any tech other than his basic combo. Most of his moves have insane startup and recovery so using them in combo is unadvisable. You can get a QCF L in there with red health for a wall bounce or a QCB L for more hits but no follow up after the QCB L (unless you count super)

Seth Killian said most of his specials are fly cancellable. Which ones?

People getting F'd in the A by Vergil: Vergil has no crossups on his normals (i think), no airdash and his teleport is reactable. Always block low against Vergil.

Also, the berserker slash-esque move will ALWAYS cross up so when you see it come out hold forward.

Ran into Viscant playing Ghost Rider/Strider/Hawkeye on ranked earlier. Have never played against GR before. I let myself get excited when I saw his gamertag, was starstruck, choked bigtime and lost :(

Any anti-Ghost Rider strategies if your team doesn't have any teleports?

Keep in mind that none of GR's moves go all the way full screen, so he wants to keep you at a very specific range. Any teleport character can just back out that range and then teleport behind him.

Guys, I was hoping you could help my scrub rear end out. I've been practicing Dooms new BnB, but for some reason the second footdive sometimes misses. I've got everything else down I think, if I connect with fH S, but usually the forward H pushes the guy too far away to be hit by the S footdive.

So what am I doing wrong?

Make sure Doom is right above their head before you do the first foot dive.

If you want a slightly less terrible team you can also use it to set up inescapable Haggar/Tron/Nemesis level 3s. Ghost Rider and Modok don't work though. Who else has a super grab that isn't a hit grab?

edit: works with Phoenix Wright, Dr. Strange, Rocket Raccoon, and Iron Fist

edit again: actually whoops i forgot to properly test those last ones, hit grabs can be blocked or combod into, only actual grabs will work regardless

I'm actually using Thor/Strange/Doom. I planned on dropping Thor but they hosed with Dante and Magneto so much that I can't use them seriously until I get used to their new combos.

Does it work with Strange for real? That's really cool.
