I thought Sp00ky said he was going to quit streaming after Evo?

He's cutting back on streaming FGC events, so he'll mostly only be doing big majors. At his UFGT panel he talked about doing other content like speedruns/TAS, Magic and some other stuff.

He's slowing down from covering big events, but he'll be around for smaller stuff like Big 2, house streams and personal stuff like Magic the Gathering.

[THACHITS]

Spooky being back at big two brings a smile to my face, especially with Chris Hu on the mic. Everything feels right again

[Huw_Dawson]

As far as I can tell the Hulk/Spidey glitch doesn't work any more.

[crimzonflame]

New Marvel tech was discovered today. Involves use of capture state moves to reset damage scaling. Someone posted a Deadpool combo using Bolo and Drones to reset the damage mid combo for like a 1.2 million damage combo for only 1 bar used. Then another video popped up with something similar only using Spider Man's Web Ball assist meaning Spider Man worth as an assist shot up a ton. This tech is currently under research. It's apparently the one that RogueYoshi has been keeping under wraps.

This wasn't just discovered. It was actually discovered long ago by RY's friend (who played Spiderman/Hulk). He noticed one of his combos did a ton more, and showed RY, who then brought it to me to help research (hence, why he made the video). He also didn't try to keep it under wraps. He brought it up on IRC and we tried all sorts of variants. We tested this (in Vanilla) with a variety of other capture states as well (Trish Trap, Hyper Grav, etc). What we noticed is that it was very finicky (though that may have changed with Vanilla - we never went back to test after DHC glitch was fixed).

Interestingly enough, with the Deadpool video, it looks as if very specific variants of the capture trick still work (we always assumed you needed a capture type Super in order to trigger it with a DHC). You can easily test the Spiderman/Hulk combo and see if that variant works as well. During our own testing, we found that some captures wouldn't even trigger the DHC trick (like Spiderman's) but obviously it did work in some cases as seen in the Hulk/Spiderman combo. This was also the case with bounce resets - something that Magus first noticed very early on in Vanilla (and still exists in Ultimate).

Hopefully we can nail down the specifics to a science. There may be some captures that are very lenient and some that are much more strict. Definitely could increase the usefulness of some characters (such as Deadpool). I look forward to seeing what the test results bring back. Marvel is too crazy!

Chris G there, or is he still out West?

Very interesting and thanks for the info.

He's in NYC just not at big 2 today.

[tragic]

Hey, np. It's one of the crazy things about Marvel. Someone notices something, people talk about it for a bit, and then it disappears, only to resurface later and become a major part of the game. I look forward to seeing if we can nail it down... and to see if it becomes consistent enough to move characters around in the rankings.

I'm also interested to see if people end up using that Kubota cancel. It seems to have a lot of potential. We were talking about it at EVO and thought there might be a way to trick the game into letting your primary character come back in after being snapped out, so that people wouldn't be able to snap, say, Phoenix in. Lot's of testing to do!

Min needs to stick with honda. T hawk is just too bad.

I think that's for SDCC.

[Htown]

yay Modok!

Yup. The San Diego Comic Con has a ton of FGC people there. Not sure why!

[Beats]

Damn, I really want to make a team with Modok now.

How come not that many people use him?

[Parallax Scroll]

Yup. The San Diego Comic Con has a ton of FGC people there. Not sure why!

Must be for ultimater marvel 3.

[AAK]

A lot of people still playing on Ps3?

Yes for ranked.

[Ragingnight]

Yup. The San Diego Comic Con has a ton of FGC people there. Not sure why!

IGN/IPL is there, they are there for PR.

[ProtoCents]

HUH HA!

[ThirtyPlus]

As great as EVO was, it's great to get back to a grimy east coast stream.

[Slamtastic]

Good to see they're there. I was worried that so soon after EVO they wouldn't be able to travel.

I hope they play Injustice and say positive things so the sheep in the community stop crying about it being different from their established idea of a fighting game.

So you're a sheep if you don't like the look of Injustice from what we've seen? Cool.

Marn's name being the biggest is hilarious.

I love Marvisto's team.

I dislike MK, but after the demo at EVO I'm about sold on Injustice. Nightwing being announced only raises my hype.

[ThatCrazyGuy]

But.... What if they formed their own opinion based on available info and just don't dig it? They are sheep because it goes against what you think? isn't it sheep like to just like it because some top player played an early build and what they say is law? Mike Ross and Ricky and them were praising SF x tekken up and down.

[Xevren]

yeah probably tomorrow. all my streaming gear is packed up right now.

Awesome!

[Slamtastic]

So you're a sheep if you don't like the look of Injustice from what we've seen? Cool.

I'm saying a large portion of people have implied that there is inherent detriment to game quality or competitiveness from having stages that effect gameplay in a fighting game, and given their lack of a chance to play it themselves and the lack of information.footage we had early on, they made that decision based on none of the pre-existing games they considered good having that element, and were being closed minded.

In fact, "sheep" refers more to the idea that they would be positive toward somthing because Wong talked positively of it, moreso than them being negative.

I'm saying the fighting game community responds poorly to change, something most agree with.

They did just that for MK9. Didn't really make much difference. Trolls gonna troll.

So you should have just said this instead of leaving a statement that's open to misinterpretation.

Lost Fragment, the Kuwait Marvel SBO qualifiers are today. In 12 hours. Could you add that to the OP? twitchtv.com/fikrakw

[Slamtastic]

I hope that once opinions from people who have had hands on with the game come out, it will change the opinions of some people who are being hard on it simply for being different.

If positive opinions come from respected community members, it will help even more.

That is basically what I was trying to say, with less mad.

[wingz]

I think Dormamu's victory quote against Zero is pretty hilarious, since it's true.

"You are broken. Farewell" lol.
