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 think he might do that now since Doom builds insane meter and Strider with x-factor 3 and ouroboros is supposed to be insane. I think he actually was the one pro guy I heard that from at WNF or CC live perhaps.

Isn't Nem's Level 3 with X-factor supposed to one-shot you with little to no start up time?

I'm probably gonna roll with Vergil/Nemesis, Firebrand/Arthur, and Strider. Strider's assist seem like they'll help Firebrand and Arthur get in.

The PS3 version defaults to a non-Amazon store and I have no idea how to check if the Amazon pre-order still has it, but the Xbox version clearly does so probably.

We don't know exactly how much it builds though as he started with 5. I'd estimate around 2? It's hard to know with the new slower meter gain. Cool combo anyway, I love how late you can relaunch after the crumple.

I got to play Ultimate for quite a few hours at my fighting games casuals last night. I'm pretty bad so I didn't play anyone besides my preconceived Hawkeye-Haggar-Dr.D team. I really don't get what Hawkeye's gameplan is; I get how to play keepaway with doom but Hawkeye's arrows don't have nearly the same pushback or chip damage on 'em. I also don't really know what to do when my opponent jumps, there was a guy playing firebrand and it was just an awful matchup; the greatest marksman in the world but I can only shoot straight ahead or straight up :what:. Counter-hitting people with the slide was pretty easy, but I didn't know how to make it safe on block.

Hawkeye can shoot his command arrow at a diagonal upward angle from the ground, and he can tiger knee downward-aimed arrows as OTG options. On top of that, his single shot super instantly hits the opponent no matter where they are (except during hard knockdown).

You mean arrows with just H can be shot at an angle or are you talking about the Z-input arrows (because I couldn't reliably AA with those)? The OTG shots don't have to be TK'd, the QCB move gives you a hop and you just hit L or M after that (or maybe H, not sure). OTGing with the poison arrow into Gimlet wasn't as tough as I was expecting, but that didn't stop me from dropping it about 25% of the time.

I've been playing for the last couple of days, and, as everyone I've played with in the past can attest to, I'm pretty bad.

I've settled on Nova/X/Strider for now with Doom being the obvious second there. I know not everyone has their hands on the game yet, but I just can't figure out a good second. I've tried Frank for shopping cart/level 3-4 combo attempts, but TACing isn't reliable enough for that and Frank has a hard time opening people up with the strider assist I've found since there's only the one hit so his roll can't cross up.

So, I'm rather stumped as to what'd give my team some synergy. My inner chen says to take Felicia for her rolling buckler assist since hit block or miss it makes air human rocket punch pretty safe while at the same time setting them up for a follow up combo on hit.

Anyone have any other ideas that I can flail uselessly around with? :shobon:

Keep in mind I have no scene here and I play online :twisted:

I thought you meant X as in Zero with the megaman skin... I think this is a sign, you know who you need to use!

Just H. Even if you do the multiple command arrow volleys you can shoot each individual arrow at different angles to cover wide portions of the screen.

That's true, but that wasn't exactly a particularly difficult combo for a lot of strong players, and I think it was more to just showcase his damage. We already know that maximum wesker does ~400k before scaling if you mash, so even spending one more meter will greatly increase that combo's damage.

Are the recovery frames of Frank's camera shot hyper cancellable? I'm seeing all these level 5 corner combos popping up and camera cancelled into his anti air grab seems like the most obvious thing ever.

Also, since rocket punch xx HSF whiffs now, but they flip out really high, I wonder if it's useful at all to use it to DHC into Frank/Spidey/She Hulk

Some Phoenix Wright stuff from someone who has the guide at SRK:

quote:

I am reading it right now so I will be editing this post every time I find something very useful but I want to begin saying that Missile assist OTGs and has 5 durability points

Directly from the guide: The game will never allow you to have three slots filled with false evidence

Many of Wright's command normals are using the same button you press in the previous move to activate it for example:
The command move that flashes a light bulb and is jump cancellable is made by pressing H during st.H makes contact with the opponent.
He also has a command normal that is cr.H during cr.H makes contact with the opponent but is not jump cancellable and knocks-down but maybe we can follow it with S.

Paperwork and Press the Witness assists are 100% invulnerable in Turnabout Mode. The guide even says that you can make a beam THC from Akuma, Ironman, and Ryu and none of them will hit Wright.

Paperwork assist in Turnabout has beam durability and being 100% invincible makes it as reliable as Press the Witness

Order in the Court hyper destroys all the false evidence

There's no mention that Paperwork High specials are overhead.

Maya's specials are called "M-Maya!?"

Simple and yet perfect name for lv3 hyper: Ace Attorney

A great aspect of Maya's hyper (called Steel Samurai Maya Smelting!) is that as we know the hyper is like an assist so Wright can move freely during the hyper and the guide mentions a good pressure example to open your opponent: the last hit of the hyper is low and you having control of Wright you can try an overhead and make an unblockable setup from this. j. Objection anyone?

:stare:
Order in the Court removing all false evidence sounds great, instead of trying to throw them away (seems to have slow startup), just combo into the OTG super.
