CAN I BEAT MVC2 ARCADE MODE WITH THE WORST CHARACTERS?

[@adriangonzalez3600]

"Clearly, Dan is the carry" This is the most meta use of Dan I've ever seen

[@TheAyanamiRei]

I would argue that Servobot was the Carry. I mean Servobot is MUCH better than I gave him credit for. He's shorter than Roll, so more attacks miss him. Not to mention an ability that has Super Armor, and another that is a summon that frees up your character, allowing you to use your full hyper AFTER? That's DOPE!

[@SiniBANG]

I agree with arcades being dangerous back then. Parking Lot Tekken was a lot common in our area before smart phones was a thing.

[@yetijunior]

Arcades were hella dangerous back then lmao. I remember going to an arcade for a friend’s birthday party when we were 10 and I saw a Soul Calibur 2 cab. I walked up and played this guy playing Astaroth and mopped him with Talim. This grown ass man really tried to fight a 10 year old me till my friend’s dad stepped in. Shit was hilarious.

[@onlylettersand0to9]

"Arcades were hella dangerous back then lmao" That depended on the arcade. There were a lot of arcades where it would have been outright weird to see anybody even threaten to start a fight. The arcade at the college I went to and the arcades at Kampgrounds of America were always chill places.

[@RudeDude69]

I had a similar thing happen to me. When Austin Powers 3 came out in theaters my mom took me and my friends to go see it. We went to the arcade before the movie started, and I played some Soul Calibur 2. Grown ass man comes up with his lady, picks Mitsurugi. He beats me two rounds, but I downloaded him and ended up taking the next 3. Dude threatened to beat my ass lol. Embarrassing.

[@AnhDonoi]

@@onlylettersand0to9you weren’t going to the arcades in NY or CA then. James Chen talks about someone getting shot at Southern Hills Golfland. I loved going there when I was a kid but there was a reason my dad didn’t want me to go their at night time

[@onlylettersand0to9]

@@AnhDonoi Most of the arcades I went to were in California. Never saw anything even resembling trouble at the arcade on the University campus and the bowling league arcade was pretty chill on kids league days. Not denying that violence happened in arcades (I remember hearing about a violent incident in a mall arcade) but there were safe arcades, too.

[@AnhDonoi]

@@onlylettersand0to9 when were you going to the arcades? I’d say it didn’t start getting bad until the late 90s when pc cafes started popping up and there were wannabe gang bangers everywhere

[@chimpmasterflex]

Never noticed how the roll animations are hella cute. My favorite being when she gets pumped up for the beat plane.

[@jrstuckey1471]

What about Servebot and his little Chef's hat?

[@cobaingrohlnovo]

She’s like 11 bro

[@zekeiwa5837]

"The Arcade is a dangerous place" Tell me about it. When I was 15, i got stabbed 5 times on the side of my stomach by this dude coz i smoked him on Tekken 5 Dark Ressurection using Lili

[@RancorousSea]

I love that he feels the need to clarify he can't fight, like someone out there was convinced J Wong was a golden gloves champ

[@SS5SS5]

Abyss: Dan: “Hadouken!” *screen fades into white* 😂

[@macjack5978]

Terminator 2 shows us how dangerous Arcades can be.

[@TheStrategist314]

*Love this. Best part is finding out the characters you love are actually horrible to the pros*

[@ShinyGBZ]

Still love how they did Dan in this game, he's still very bad, but his NUKE of a level 3 is so satisfying and hilarious if you can pull it off

[@Chadius]

Losing Dan to take out 1 enemy is a win for Dan's team

[@dragons_hook]

It's even deadlier as a Lv5!!!

[@doopness785]

It’s a shame Servbot is so bad I love that little guy.

[@BrokenWingman]

That was awesome. Servebots ultimates are pretty sick honestly.

[@christopherfiore960]

Okay, that boss is ridiculous. But the real fight was that last match up man. Servebot V Sentinel, Roll V Storm and Dan against freaking Cable?! Apparently even with a computer. Game respects game.

[@InsomniaDaydreamer]

I used to play Servbot a lot back then, it was hilarious how bad it was, but nobody could beat me cause I can just use 2L while nobody can hit me due to them not knowing how lows work.

[@TheAyanamiRei]

I mean like...even if you DO know how to hit him, he is surprisingly powerful. Imagine just walking through hypers and beating enemies in the face? To say nothing of that Summon that frees your character up, so you get full hits on that AND a full additional one for some very nice damage.

[@Zero254]

@@TheAyanamiRei servebot is a weird case where he can do shit like duck under certain moves and take no chip damage unless you block which makes his hitbox bigger.

[@TheAyanamiRei]

@@Zero254 I had no idea that blocking increases his hit box. That's so WILD!! But I don't see how Servobot, after seeing this, is considered WORSE than Zangief. I CONSTANTLY see Zangief struggling to do much of anything, except die. Doubly so with how little range his Hypers and Moves have. Hell even Iron Zangief is MUCH less useful compared to Servobot's Giant Mallet Hyper as we saw. Not to mention few Characters, if any, have that whole "After I use my Summon Hyper, I can IMMEDIATELY do LITERALLY anything else. Including another Hyper, BEFORE this one is done!"

[@erics3454]

As someone who also hung out at Chinatown Fair circa 2000, you're dead on. A dangerous place at times. I'd love for you to do an extended video on the arcade scene there. The way you shit talk and have fun reminded me of hanging out there as a teenager, now I know you grew up around the same fighting scene.

[@MrTubeStuck]

That Roll crouch animation is so adorable.

[@carlosaugusto9821]

Great that you are going on with the low tier runs. I'd like to see CvS2, A2, A3, KoF 95/96, etc. Those are more fun to try that idea than the Marvel games.

[@ardenbob]

This team made Dan look like a superstar.

[@wutthabuck8772]

Can't lie watching Roll/Servbot/Dan win against Sentinel/Storm/Cable made my day 100000% 🤣 Day 14 Justin what's good with some Rival Schools play ? I'd love to see the team combos u can create

[@Tletna]

I wish I could like this video twice just for the Dan Bomb supers. Very fun video!

[@hard2hurt]

Take that team online!

[@carlosjuarez4134]

Watching him body people on line with team would be legendary

[@TheAyanamiRei]

They gotta Git Gud as the saying goes. Though Zangief was still trash. Why Servobot is considered worse than him, I'll NEVER understand. Like seriously that Mallet Hyper is FAR better than I thought, along with his "Summon Servobots" allowing you to get your FULL initial Hyper AND a Second one simultaneously! Normally you need to tag team to get that!

[@sekainosenshi_1412]

@@TheAyanamiRei Zangief has better neutral. Can mix up with his air grab and he has relatively strong spd. His shk is a good anti air, good pressure, cancelable and us also extremely good and comboable. The only thing bad about Gief is it's semi hard to get in and that he can't combo into super. It still baffles me how Capcom didn't think this one thru and actually let him combo into super. Other than that, he's 100% better than Servbot. Servbot doesn't have good normals or range. And the only good tool he has going for him is his normal jump canceling ability and super cancel DHC. Other than that, he's absolutely trash here.

[@CHRISGr33r]

This needs to be a Speedrun competition team.

[@arcadeperfectreviews2653]

I remember the fighting days in Chinatown fair. Shit I remember sitting on the CvS2 machine in the very back watching JWong bodying in MvC2 next to me (well bast the Soul caliber 2 machine)

[@Zero254]

Dan can loop his supers in the corner for 100% combos. I'm more surprised you didn't go for servbot's otg into lunch rush

[@bowshockgalaxy]

At first I loved all these cv2videos but whew I'm burned out and on alpha 3..yet I can't get enough of everything else ..waiting for u to try things like hate to say it but ,street combat, battle tycoon flashers...out there things...oh wet my whistle..I love new/old things..ur the 🐐 goat Justin..like all ur videos..

[@Boonehams]

4:14 - Holy crap, that was the clip of the episode!

[@NY-Buddy]

You supposed to use the Shoryuken special with Dan It takes stupid health and you can combo after it

[@untrustworthyshelfing9953]

Per the arcade convo: If we're talking about Chinatown Fair, I went there a few times a year, every year, starting in 2001. I saw at least a couple fights, but I remember a shocking amount of people selling drugs in there before it came under new management. I feel like the last three times I went there with dates, dudes came up to us trying to sell us stuff.

[@LVBiggs]

When I was younger here in Vegas, we had this dank-ass dark arcade called Mary K's. It was a total dive but the games were cheap and always operational. I witnessed a few throw downs inside and outside. The cops would occasionally come to stop some nonsense. One night, while playing Project Justice, the cops came in to arrest this kid who was causing shit earlier and was playing the game next to me. In the middle of my match, I see a 9mm flash by my head as they were cuffing this dude. Fun times.

I feel like if you're God tier like JW the worst characters can still bully the best CPU.

[@kayleeensley3102]

It's crap we can't even technically play this game without an old copy. They're crazy for not re-releasing it.

[@shinjoni]

I remember when I went to ChinaTown Fair back in the day I used to get straight rocked by everyone. They always showed me stuff I didn't even know was possible there.

[@ClubRemy]

I used to regularly play FGs in the arcade against members of a local gang until they got arrested and sent to prison on drug charges. It was both a relief and kind of disappointing because two of those guys were the most regular and competitive players on the local scene.

[@Spiritgun4Life]

Never been to the China town arcade , the little Tokyo arcade , down town la on 7th street , family arcade (on Vermont ) , pac man arcade in Pasadena were amazing for fighting games but dangerous. You get beat up by salty players or for your money.

Roll isn't as bad as ppl think, she's Pretty quick, her special moves are good and can be deadly If you lose focus, she's little so hitting her won't be easy, and the supers are really good, especialy beat plane with it's massive blockstun/hitstun, option coverage and possible damage
