Xbox 360 players:

I am doing a room tonight at 7:30 EST. This will be a private lobby. Basically a bunch of people having fun playing around with the game. Add me on Xbox Live, and shoot me a message to get invited. Also, anyone can invite anyone else if so desired.

I haven't been here in ages but there's some weeeeeeeird stuff going on in this thread.

Frank bad? Noooooo, With the right team you can get him to Level 5 without even having him involved in the match, combine that with a top 5 assist...

Level 5 Frank has everything, he can confirm every hit, overhead, low, air hit, throw, air throw into 700K + damage for one bar without even using an assist or doing anything technical. Plus matchups vs large characters are pretty much 9-1 in his favour since he has a third screen distance instant overhead.

Even if your plan A does fail and you have to rock with Lv.1 Frank for a while, he's not THAT bad, he still has good overheads against bigger characters, his jumping normals have great hitboxes, his zombie throw is plus on block for pressure/beating push block. Once you get that hit and can get to Lv.2 then you can start playing assist+roll games and he has a solid mixup.

And really, people complaining about Phoenix Wright? He's probably bottom 5 in this game. The invincible assist is the LEAST he should have for the amount of work he has to put in just to become a real character, not even a great one.

I was hella salty about Vergil in the first week of the game but really, everything he does is unsafe. It's just soooo hard to punish him online and his limbs are so good that you end up getting counterhit all day, play a Vergil offline though and you start to see whatsup. The only real problem with this game is Lv.4 Wesker, he has everything but you don't have to level up him to get there, just let your other two characters die.

Also, just putting this out there. Dark Phoenix should be stronger.

Anyway, i'm playing Nova (Overhead)/Frank (Shopping Cart)/Doom (Beam) at the moment. I only picked this team up yesterday so i'm pretty terrible at the moment (Not to mention i've not played Marvel for months AND i'm switching to a different button config and keep hitting A2 instead of launch) but it's a fun team.

I just heard that Combofiend is gonna drop Nemesis for Nova, so out of curiosity i tried out Nova/Spencer and hooooooly shit. Ludicrous damage. Long Nova combo into his ground pound OTG + Spencer grapple assist + Crumple (H) Human Rocket. What's that game? Hitstun scaling? No thanks i'll just crumple people instead.

I think Nova looked a lot better in the his preview videos than he actually is, i think he'll level up to be a solid top tier character but i think a lot of people probably picked him thinking he was gonna be a classic tri-jump character, when in reality his air dash is kinda bad and he has no fast low.

Also try out the Human Rocket L loop, that does even more retarded damage

Also, have you got the H loop midscreen? I'm struggling with the timing.

Hi hey! I was told to post around here yesterday. Anyway, my Internet is currently balls until we switch back to Comcast on Sunday. I've been playing a heck of a lot more SSF4AE, but I should get back to
UMvC 3 every once in a while. Half the time its my brother on, he's got a real good zoning/offense/chip team. Anyway, I'll stick around

So i think i'm changing it up to Nova/Frank/Hawkeye, i don't think Doom is gonna be a good anchor once people start respecting the dive kick, and i think Greyhound works better for roll mixups with Frank so i'm gonna switch (not that i think Hawkeye is a great anchor either)

Also, someone managed to purchase 10,000 MS points on my account yesterday, so my XBL is currently locked out pending investigation. Meaning i'm stuck playing endless sets against the CPU in training mode

I'm LOVING how MODOK feels in this game.
