Real rap: core UMvC3 discussion is beginning to spill back into the FGW thread and I'm no arbiter of discussion or anything but y'all should really keep that stuff in the OT where it belongs.

Tiers, tech discussion, pretty much anything not relevant or being discussed in an immediate stream (where it's appropriate). Makes me sad because all the times Marvel has spilled over into the FGW threads, the OT has slowed down considerably. Right now it's actually more active than its been in a while though.

I posted the fanatiq top 5 thing cause he had just said it on his stream, and this is where I talk about stream stuff. Sorry =(

I like marvel (2 more than 3) but if you want to talk about any other fighting game I'll follow :) I haven't played some of the newer ones tho :(

Just saw the C.Viper unblockables.

Capcom needs to put out a statement on these unblockable soon or it's gonna hurt the game in the long run.
Click to expand...

Every character has unblockables. The only thing that varies is how reliably they can do them. There are many that are just not practical. And I don't think Capcom is going to do a thing about it, they are a by-product of the engine, they would have to rebuild the engine from scratch which is not an option.

I don't think that's the problem(personally I don't mind discussion about any fighting game), I think that there's just not enough conversation/debate about other games.

It's harder to get VH match videos because it's not as popular as Savior, but with DCC coming we'll get a fresh batch from that event. For now, I'll timestamp me using Pyron and some of the guys using Phobos in last weekend's Hunter Bi-Millennial #2.

I'm surprised that ABA is so low though.
Everyone's been hyping up some Goku Moroha changes, so it sounded like she would be tearing it up, especially early on.

Poetic justice indeed! Also yeah, this might change, hopefully zappa and chipp will come down a bit. Finally Venom top 5 makes me smile but ABA, testament and potemkin so low make me cry :( I'm apathetic about Sol.

I wish the non-stream related marvel talk was a bit more contained in the OT, just so it would be easier to keep track of, but it's not marvel players' faults other games aren't discussed- that falls on the people who play those games.

Also, I think marvel with its constantly changing tiers and the sheer number of variables to discuss regarding team structure just lends itself to more discussion than other fighting games.

I'll take Flux over Noel. Flux has really grown a lot as a player. I remember his bootleg combos, and mixup with Zero a few months ago. Now it's legitimate "you better pray if you want to survive" type of mix ups. Neutral game got much better too, and last but not least he 1player team.
Click to expand...

If you mention Flux you'll need to mention JRosa too, who has been doing really well lately at The Break and Big Two. Think he's good enough to be considered top 5 in EC.

People in the OT don't really follow streams so if something happens on stream (like in this case a known player posts a ludicrus tier list) it's usually discussed here. New tech or new combo videos are almost always discussed in the OT first, there are a couple of them right now on the last page still being discussed.

I know this is probably nothing and just some lazy dude slapping on whatever pics he thought looked cool, but I wonder if Capcom did bring UMvC3 to the WiiU whether it would have the stuff exclusive in the Vita version like the ability to see hit boxes (hit bubbles?).

I wouldn't mind picking it up if it did.
Click to expand...

I like that idea. They should add the hitboxes viewer to AE too, since they have already been leaked.

Have you guys seen this?

I'll say for sure that ky is a bit too low on the current list.
Click to expand...

I'm guessing ABA and Bridget are both likely to move up as well.
Well, don't know too much about ABA, but just heard it offhand, but Bridget definitely did.
Stuff like being able to cancel KSMH into Yoyo (which goes out much faster) will definitely help me out.

DCC7 is going to be so fucking awesome this year. Last year's tournament was fantastic. It was just a bunch of Japanese and every english speaking Vampire fan that actually played the game. The fights were so good it wasn't even funny. The best part was watching people get hyped as fuck over Lei Lei and losing their shit when a Tenra-Ha was pulled off. Also, Bishamon was trolling so hard on Hunter with seemingly infinite blockstrings haha.

I'm honestly surprised by Baiken's placement. I figured she would be closer to the top than middle. This tier list is still great though. I've always wanted to explore Johnny more and most of my favorites are still very strong.
