How to Play Rick in MultiVersus (Part 2: Utilizing Portal)

[@ninzuh]

I missed something important in this vid. You can actually throw out just one portal in the air without waiting if you input side special 2 times very quickly. Thank you to @flpymnky for showing me this!

ur toes kinda smell

[@thegermanzeppelin2194]

Bro thank you so much. I love Rick, and there are NO good tutorials that are up to date on him except yours, and your tutorials are great. Keep up the good work.

fax keep doin ya thing G

[@cypherx2116]

Rick portal plays are so hype. Really appreciate these types of videos!

[@Frost-tw4qd]

Thanks for making these guides. Rick was my secondary in the beta and I was having a hard time getting readjusted to him when the game officially dropped. Now that the swap neutral and input buffer options have been added I can start getting better with him.

[@slimboogie777]

Best Rick I’ve seen so far

[@bigbomb123ful]

Appreciate you for sharing how to use portals. I was top 100 with Rick in beta but wrote him off bc I thought he wasn’t allowed to place a single portal. I’m so excited to play him when I get home today!!!

[@ntgamingtechnology9161]

Thanks bro for the help.No one actually plays rick in competitive games i feels he's kinda underrated like he's got the portal and you can perform so many trick shots with it.

[@fordprefect5104]

Portal is so cool.

[@gritted]

thanks man, amazing tutorials.

[@mrabiding9866]

A cool portal trick is sending a meeseeks at an enemy and catching them with portal to start a combo

[@BrandonChT]

I dont even play rick yet I watched the full video xD that last clip was clean af

[@dawsonguam5700]

You just gained a sub, these guides are nice, can't wait to see what you cook with Meseeks

[@MichaelOmaits]

I’m having trouble trying jab jab portal because I go through the portal (like a recovery) instead of my opponent coming back to where I’m standing

[@trulyaloof]

same problem

[@ninzuh]

Directional input can have a big effect. If someone keeps doing their di in it can be hard to get portal to connect. I would lab it a lot so u know when portal will connect based on the angle they are flying. It’s even better to practice it in unranked. At higher percents I find it a bit easier to get consistent portals.

[@jmanwg8681]

You need to let people know how DI is effecting portal. If opponent is DI in after jab two instant portal will never confirm. To always get portal to confirm after jab two you need to bring portal slightly in.

I just started my go to has been Side normal twice Into fart bomb Side normal twice Up tilt Jump up tilt Special up tilt

[@theotothefuture]

Those clips were fire!

[@kinglvmvgrv2222]

You’re the only one

[@843Chadwick]

You do a lot of portal combos, Squanch perk would be perfect for your playstyle lol.

[@ninzuh]

i might have to try it out

[@zuko_7272]

What are the best perks for rick

[@ninzuh]

i have been liking thats flammable doc, speed force assist, and armor killer

[@JoeMama-uu9xj]

This is an actual good Rick tutorial, beautiful and subbing rn, also is there a way to place portals without entering, and is there a way to place only 1 portal at a time thx

[@ninzuh]

If u want to place one portal without entering you can tap side special 2 times quickly while in the air. I believe you are forced to go through portal when second one is placed.

[@JoeMama-uu9xj]

@@ninzuh thx man 👍

[@JoeMama-uu9xj]

Wait I’m blind u said it in the comments already 💀

[@lukenmurguia4462]

These are helping me a lot but im having a hard time with some because my portal just goes too far and it doesnt drag them back

[@acidphoenix9110]

How do control the portal gun I press triangle but it teleports instantly

[@ninzuh]

if you move your left stick around while hold side special you can move the portal

[@mattiguess8094]

ive discovered that the big portal also have the same effect if theyre in hitstun and it creates a portal in your location and TPs the opponent right next to you, ive labbed that you can set up a big portal behind them and shoot a projectile to knock them into the portal, and if they do something like dodge you can catch them with a fair, i wanna keep labbing but the xbox version of this game is complete ass and it lags like hell

[@ninzuh]

Nice! Yea hopefully they fix the lag on console servers. I’ve heard it’s been unplayable

[@demarcusbibles5255]

But what button do I press to open portal ??! (First day just downloaded)

[@ninzuh]

The input for portal is side special. I believe default would be B on an Xbox controller. I would go into your settings to make sure

[@moshalmighty]

Jab jab insta portal does not seem to work for me. It does of i finish the combo out with the rocket but without that my portal is always to far out from the enemy

[@ninzuh]

Your opponents percent and di definitely come into play here. I have a much easier time getting jab 1 into jab 2 into portal at mid to higher percents. It can be difficult at low percents especially if they are holding in.

[@notzarina-5240]

how do you get the portal so consistently even when i tap it the still just dodge it or it misses

[@ninzuh]

DI of your opponent also plays a role. For example if they are holding in at low percent you probably won’t be able to get a portal combo off.

[@skylerrudolph1954]

struggling so hard to hit jab 2 into side special/ portal pls help

[@ninzuh]

It’s based on di. If they don’t di out then it’s hard to connect. You can try doing side special and then pulling it more towards you to get it to connect in di in.

[@skylerrudolph1954]

are u on m & k?? Because I play on controller…here sitting in the lab ya know and I haven’t gotten it to connect yet 😂 imma keep trying tho thank you so much didn’t expect you to get back so quick ur a g for that

[@ninzuh]

@@skylerrudolph1954 I’m on Xbox controller. Sorry I kind of missed a few things in this vid. I have been learning so much about Rick in the past 2 weeks and I am constantly am learning new stuff especially with portal. To get portal to connect on di in is a bit hard at first but if u can land it a few times it’s easy to repeat. U just have to hold side special and pull in as quick as possible.

[@skylerrudolph1954]

but it also has to be the big portal right? @ninzuh

Does anyone know how to aim with the portal on ps4

[@ninzuh]

You just have to input side special and then hold down the special button while you move the left stick.

[@Aiden2tough]

@@ninzuh thank you

[@arthurbravo9225]

This might just be a skill issue of my part but most of the times i try to do a portal combo just as you say how to do it with instant portal command it doesn't work because the enemy doesn't receive enough knockback or he goes up so i can't use the portal fast enough, do you have any tips to help me with that

[@ninzuh]

Directional input can have a big effect. If someone keeps doing their di in it can be hard to get portal to connect. I would lab it a lot so u know when portal will connect based on the angle they are flying. At higher percents I find it a bit easier to get consistent portals.

[@arthurbravo9225]

@@ninzuh thanks but the lab mode doesn't help a lot since the bot always stays idle in a combo

[@ninzuh]

@@arthurbravo9225 the best thing to do is to try and practice reacting to di in an online match. take advantage of unranked

she only love me for my rick

[@xen9209]

im kinda lost on how u get insta portal

[@ninzuh]

You input the direction u want to send portal and special at the exact same time. The timing is a little weird at first but once you get it down a couple times it’s easy to repeat.

[@xen9209]

@@ninzuhthx bro i got it now

[@kermitthedog4654]

How do i leave a like just one big portal without having to be in the air for long?

You can't shoot only one portal unless you wait it out in the air unfortunately.

@@ninzuh when I do side attack x2 and then side special it doesn’t work

[@ninzuh]

@@zf10studios52 it is based on the opponents directional input. If they do no DI or DI in at low percents it won’t connect and if they di in at mid percents it might not connect.

[@Playboifarti_69]

I don't hold i just click but the Knock back isn't far enough to teleport the enemy back what might be the problem

[@ninzuh]

It’s based on directional input. U have to move the portal closer if they di in. My b on the late response
