GA doesn't get a free mixup on a blocked D1. Pay attention to his stance as he pulls his arrow out. If he jumps, stand block. If his feet don't leave the ground or he crouches, block low. It's pretty simple once you practice the visual queues.

It's still a Mix-up if I have to guess and it's almost instant, lol.

You can interrupt it too because it's not a true block string, but if you're too late Ice arrow will trade.

He's not that hard. If you use 22 or his F22 into MB Herculean Might, that's his setup right there. Once you get them in it once, you can loop it as long as they don't get out of it or you drop it.

22/F22 MB HM, B3, J3, D2. Sets up for another command grab attempt. At least I think that's how it goes. Just watch this video in the spoiler tag...

Not to mention that his Atlas Torpedo is crazy good. Especially when you know how to make it an overhead mixup. People don't know how to deal with that shit. A lot of the time I can get 4 in a row. The MB version usually puts you right in the corner by an interactable so a lot of the time it can add a good 20% or more to your combos.

I didn't say he was hard to learn. I said he works hard for minimum damage. Superman can just close his eyes and flail his arms for the same Shazam gets for making good reads.

That Brady video is interesting. I guess he does have some dangerous stuff. I also heard you can safety activate trait after his F22 string. Still, trait activation needs less recovery.

Ok, you motivated me to stay with Shazam. Back to the lab.

I feel your pain. It's really hard to get in with Lex. If anyone tells me he has projectiles just don't. His "projectiles" are slow and situational. His lance thing does almost no damage , and his satellite thing misses unless they stand still or are on their backs. At least zoning isn't the main focus of this game anymore.

Don't get me wrong, my Diana laughs at zoning. But with catwoman.....she doesn't a air dash :(

I miss air dash. Now I have to walk/duck like a f#%kin Super Mario game!

When I don't feel like guessing, I just MB 3 out of it.

Lobo Secret Top Tier?

I agree if you're not trolling. I played this one Lobo where I got bish slapped by that surprise match up. Still won though :proud:.

Dude has one hell of an anti air and that low chain catches people when they sleeping.

Oh shit I wanna learn Lobo now.
Damnit Vital :mad:
 
Of course I'm trollin' but I do think people are sleeping on Lobo though.

Play Lobo then you phaggot, No one's stopping you.

Don't pick characters based on tier. Whether it's low or high you want, it's lame either way. Just pick who interests you and/or fits your playstyle.

I'm a low-tier warrior because I'm against the thought that Low Tiers cannot do squat that comes from some people.

Winning with Pheonix Wright in Marvel vs Capcom 3 against someone like Vergil is like David vs Goliath.

Makes me wet.
 
Injustice tier list is pretty basic:

Godlike: Superman, Aquaman and Batman
>The rest of them<
Dogsh!t: Lobo, Bane and Lex

I don't even pay attention to tiers until I have decided who is my main. The 9/10 I have picked someone in the middle or god awful. The only time I have picked top tier unknowingly is Blazblue where I picked Nu and Rachel.

Injustice is full of tier whores, In my play session earlier I had 2 different people switch to Superman after beating their alts which where Shazam and Killer Frost (which they were decent with). I pick Harley ALL DAY LONG <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 But full screen laser eyes of doom are one of the hardest things for Harley to contend with.

Thinking I might lean back into Bane again, nothing like throwing people round the screen. Not to mention Doomsday who is Batmans J2 nemesis, "J2 spam?...Nope....Grab from the sky...J2 again?....oh hahahah Nope....Grab again".

But yes.....I am actually starting to enjoy this game again. My new rule is I give you 20 in game seconds to do something, if you full screen spam all that time I'm gone. Win or Lose I don't give a sh!t, the stats can blow me (and don't give me that "you have to adapt nonsense")
 
Well you do have to adapt if you want to win.

I've never left against a spammer. If I do beat them, I feel really good, and if it's MvC3 or MK9, I tea bag them at the end.

Yeah, lol but I only do that kind of shit against spammers.

If someone is zoning me, I won't do that, because I can tell they're not just aimlessly firing shit at me like spammers do.
 
Just because they play top tier characters you can't assume they're tier whores. Maybe they like Batman for who he is as a character, it really gets under my skin when people care about playing a certain character to prove people wrong, It doesn't matter if Bane beats Superman because your victory doesn't change what the current Meta game says so why handicap yourself? If by all means you enjoy playing as that character go ahead, but just to prove a meaningless point is ridiculous.

I play characters that fit my playstyle and have the tools I look for in a character and at the time I had the game, Catwoman interested me because she has to Mix-up you up to death with a God-like High/low game but she falls short to characters with good fireballs/Icebergs-like projectiles. Then I took the time to look into Bat Girl who has the same gameplan and Anti-Zoning tools, but I lose big damage from switching characters.
 
When someone goes from doing high damaging combos and great mix ups with a mid tier then next match turns to top tier laser eye spam then you know somethings up

I can deal with spammers. I just don't want too me leaving is no harm to anyone. They get their win. I get my loss. I move on then when I find someone really good and enjoy fighting I add them and do private matches.

I have seen level 12 players with more 'skill' than half the high level players.
 
The point is not meaningless. You're showing how every character is viable. If this was not expressed, might as well make Injustice an FPS where everyone is Superman and you shoot laser beams at each other until someone wins. Or Injustice would basically be a huge failure like UMvC3 is, because everyone jumps on the Top-Tier train, and this cannot even be argued because it's plain obvious when it comes to UMvC3.

And there are tier whores out there. You can't tell who, but there are. If you join a lobby, and 5 people keep picking Superman, chances are at least one of them is a tier whore. If you like Superman as a character that's fine. I like Wesker in MvC3 because he's Wesker, not a broken character.

There are those who want to win.

And those who want respect.

I'm not playing at EVO. I'm playing online with a bunch of dudes over Xbox Live. I'll take the respect, and the satisfaction of beating a Top-Tier character which is why Pheonix Wright is my main in UMvC3, and Stryker is my main in MK.

Would I use Wright if I was in a tournament? Hell yes I would. Would it be a smart choice? Of course not.

But like I said, it's just playing online. Obviously, the people TwinSnakes faced were tier whores. If you beat me in MK9 after I use Kano, then I suddenly switch to Kabal or Kung Lao, it's obvious I'm leaning towards higher tiered characters.

Edit:

If you are a tier whore, and not a fan of the characters, you are lame in my book.

But of course those players don't care what others think, because they want the satisfaction of winning with a herp-a-derp character, unless they're actually putting some thought and skill into then. Then it's MILDLY acceptable, in my opinion. Otherwise, piss off. It's why high-level MK9 isn't fun to watch.

There's nothing wrong with tier whoring. People play games to win.


Playing low tiers doesn't prove anything. We know every character is viable (in most matchups. Lex vs Supes is almost impossible) but a Bane beating a Superman doesn't change the fact that Superman is better than Bane.
 
You know that every character is viable.

For example, I wish you could see all the shit I get for using Pheonix Wright. When I joined lobbies and lost, people sent me messages suggesting me to use a character that was actually worth something.
 
This isn't me starting the argument 'if you use this character you're a tier whore. Or you amazing for using another'

People can use whatever character they want. Just don't go into full screen 'look at me ain't I good' mode.

I have noticed a lot of Solomon Grundy's turtling lately and you'd think its would be frustrating but its one of the best games I have played as its pure mind games.

Laser eye spam however? Is definitely not.
 
G-gameplay thread?

My two cents:

I picked the characters I play with cause I like them lore and design wise. Gameplay comes afterwards.

You guys know I like Batman cause he's a BAMF along with Joker cause he's Joker. Just pick the characters you like. If other people tier whore so what?

Beat them with your character. If they outplay you then that's just them being the better player.

Complaining about tier whores and tier lists is just an excuse IMO
 
No excuse.

Harley. Bane. Lex and maybe lobo? don't have the tools to play Superman at his laser eye game at full screen. So you have to play patiently, meanwhile he's building up Meyer this entire time. You screw up you're back to square one.

That's not you being outplayed by a person. That's the character being better and stronger than you.

Because the game allows it. If someone can do something cheap they will. My point was I don't take that. Call me what you will a whiner. Quitter w/e, its how I play. I play for enjoyment

Let's just end this now.

But back to gameplay. Catwomans B3 definitly makes Harelys guns whiff, she comes through them like nothing.
 
Wasn't calling you a whiner

Not raising it again but what of Harley's silly slide twin? You don't use that against lasers or anything?

Bane's tools to get in is his Godlike dash and or charge.

Lobo has a meter burn chain move that allows him to get in (maybe?) and I think a very good dash to get in.

And Lex?
Spoiler:
Fvck em :rolleyes:


Jk maybe air Corp charge?

Everyone has tools.

Damn I want to play Injustice now lol
 
With the not so friendly net code. A silly slide after his air laser will likely get you a face full of it.

You hear a Frenchman over the mic you know it's going to be a bad game. They have the worst internet. I prey to the gods I fight Swedish people. Their internet is as smooth as butter

She can't silly slide his standard eye beam thing (no idea it's input). With that its standard dash then duck repeat.

Ground laser you can obviously jump over but as soon as you hit the ground they're in the air again moving away getting back the space you just took.

Its not impossible to close the gap. But its a pisstake it should be that hard to do so. Harley can only deal with a lot of stuff at mid screen seeing as her MB cupcake bombs are godlike but they don't travel full screen.

As I said previously. The Solomon Grundy matches I had were amazing. He was working me out I was working him out. The superman long range game isn't fun at all. Its tedious and be cause the game allows it people will do it.
