Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3

Pretty sure when she turns gold she gets Armor. Like she don't flinch from attacks. ( A la Purple/Metal Zengieff in MVC2. But don't think she gets "heavier")

So yeah, Sentinel still looks like a beast. And with Magneto still looking like the fastest thing in a spedo and sped helmet... The Sentinel Megneto Storm still looks to be dangerous. Not as much as MVC2 but...

But things have changed. More characters have teleports. Lei Lei can basicly make a reflect wall and air walk behind it. Really have a list of atleast 5 Dark Stalkers/Vampire characters I would have preferred but the way they implemented her makes me curious. I predict her becoming real dangerous in the hands of a high level player.

Still not as satisfied with the roster as the previous game but I'm likely to be one of the few to see Sentinel. Didn't use him much but it was fun to play a huge robot that was quick as hell, did massive chip damage, could take a beating and had impressive zoning, turtling, and rush down game. Beast.
 
I'm wrong about the air normals. He still has 45 degree boot and "frying pan". So not quite sure if he has command normals?
 
As for Hsien-Ko. Her gong waves look Amazing. Those alone are going to make her decent. They stay on screen forever, reflect projectiles (probably not hypers of course), big hit box, and you can have multiple on screen.

Yeah, I liked those gong waves as well. She does look very interesting.
 
Her assist potential is very good if she gets gong wave assist. Characters with issues getting in on projectile characters (she-hulk, tron bonne, etc...) could probably use that as a great moving wall to get in safely.

In the original games, her move properties change when she enters that mode (all punches become fierce punches, for example). There's a number of different quirks in gold/EX mode.

Hsien-ko has a number of interesting attacks and properties that make her a somewhat solid lockdown/mid-range character. In the DS/VS games, her gong would hit multiple times when blocked. Combined with hammer toss for stun and air walk/pendulum she has some pretty solid corner lockdown.

You could cancel Pendulum into a jump and do something similar to a triangle-jump like Magneto and her ground dash had some invincibility plus it could cross up.

Hammer Toss was a interesting move. Basically it was random what she would toss out except for some statue (can't quite remember) that basically meant that after that statue she'd toss the hammer which would stun the target. If its similar to She-Hulk's stun, she'd probably have the same unique property.

Assuming all the above is in there (and it looks like it) she'll be pretty good at lockdown, and might be a good assist for keep-away characters like Arthur with her Gong-Assist (assuming she has it).

I'm a bit more partial to this

Of course you know MSS, MSP, and MSC will probably rain dominant for the first few months of MvC3. Luckily, two of those teams don't work anymore.

I'm having a hard time picking a team, by the way. There's a lot of Capcom characters I like here. Not too many Marvel ones I'm willing try, but there's a few on their side that look interesting enough to play. Still, I'm having a really tough time deciding on three characters to play.
 
Phoenix just lost 1/2-2/3rds of her life from one of Sent's supers in the gameplay vids at Gametrailers.

Either Phoenix has REALLY crap health, or Sent still hits like a rock. Maybe both.
 
Hsien ko looks fun so I'm pleased. Gong looks great as others have said. The air dash looks really useless though with how slow they made it. She might as well hold out a "shoot me" sign while she's doing it

MSS sucked in MvC2, dunno why you listed that there. 3 point characters, no synergy, and no AA.

Also I think Phoenix is a gimmick, there is absolutely no way I can see her being viable in anything higher than super casual play, unless of course someone dedicates several years to her and teams that support her ala Clockw0rk and strider.
 
Phoenix has plenty of potential despite gimick. She has a decent life bar when you consider dark phoenix as he second half. so with lvl 5 it takes 2 combos to kill her not 1. Also you can tag out dark phoenix and her assists become buffed. Her assists as Dark Phoenix might be insane. Also, what if she tags out while in her healing bubble? If she can retain that as an effect on tag in she'll be insane on assist and her already powerful glass cannon point.

She has a TON of risk but her rewards seem on par. I can definitely see her being decent or broke

BTW...it seems as though this is the final roster for release but they ARE revealing more characters very soon, expected DLC. So no more leaked lists, all mystery here.

if you don't see the problem with this I have nothing to add, lol

unless she has an easy to land infinite/deathcombo or amazing assists I don't see how she can be good
 
I see some great potential for hate mail in this game what with Sentinel having what looks like an amazing keep away game, having Modok with his shields and trish setting up traps. I am going to make people RAGE so hard
 
I'm thinking the new characters being revealed are going to get leaked right before the official reveals as well.

I wasn't at all interested in the prospect of playing as Galactus before, but after thinking about it, i kinda changed my mind about that. I guess mostly because i remembered that Phoenix actually pwns Galactus in the comics. Soooo... that should effectively remove any issues with him being playable and i think a giant character similar to Onslaught or Abyss could be interesting.
