MvC2: The Best Anti-Airs in Marvel vs Capcom 2 (A Beginner's Guide)

[@waffles_ns]

this guide freaking rules i love this! i think this is gonna help a lot of people get a feel for team structure (order), composition (character choice), and how important calling and countercalling are in the heat of the moment, and i loved how many assists you listed and how many examples you showed

[@Omegaredish]

@@waffles_ns heeeeey! I'm glad I made somebody happy today! This guide took such a loooong time to make! Thanks for watching!

[@soulresuscitate]

Strong video, well explained. Assist selections have been one of the more common questions I've been hearing, so this is quite welcome. I think looking at projectile assists as a whole has merit for a video, as well as capture/capture-like assists.

[@Omegaredish]

@@soulresuscitate the projectile assist video is underway! Thank you for your support!

[@AnhDonoi]

Back in the day, I always thought anti air assist was the most useless assist because it didn’t contribute to your combo. After watching so many MVC2 videos online for the past 15 years, I can see how wrong I was

[@Omegaredish]

@@AnhDonoi Hence this video! I'm really glad to hear that it's helping folks!

[@seanchan4478]

Haha, me too, ever since the arcade days, I've been like "Why the hell would I want that?" And set everyone to projectiles

Great content. Super useful and well put together :)

[@Omegaredish]

Thanks man! That means a lot!

My team of jill, tron and Captain Commando aproves this video

[@Omegaredish]

Jill slide -> Tron -> launch, magic series xx super will surely hurt!

[@R.A.M-c9d]

@@Omegaredish what´s great about this team is that it also has great lockdown/chasedown potencial so you can catch a lot of characters like: Magneto, Storm and Sentinel by denying them air space. And also Gambit, Psylocke will have trouble zoning with CC punching the ground every 4 sec. in the arena

[@inseinworld]

Awesome! Loved your content! ❤🎉

[@Omegaredish]

@@inseinworld thanks a lot man!

Would omega red synergize well with sonson's aa, he does have that diagnol air grab. Currently using red as my main, sonson juggernaut and bison are usually in my rotation. Any tips?

[@Omegaredish]

Usually, people would put Jugg and Buletta to do a 1 hit kill. But this team seems to have potential, especially if you use Jugg's ground assist (not jugg punch). You do lose some corner combo extensions without Bb.hood, I think. I have to take this for a spin to say more.

[@seanchan4478]

@@Omegaredish would love to see what you discover. I've been playing mvc2 for years and just started using omega red, omg, this guy doesn't belong on this game, he's so different. New main, lol

[@Omegaredish]

@@seanchan4478 welcome to fight club! Lol!

I never played mvc2 as much as xmenvssf and mvc1, but I feel like, as awesome as the mvc2 roster is, most players tend to only pick the same 4 or 5 characters in hopes of being as good as the pros and their tried and true team choices. Am I wrong?

[@Omegaredish]

@@gm9984 I guess this used to be the case during the coin-op arcade period. But with online, where you only lose your reputation, I have been seeing more people dedicated to unusual teams and characters (like myself). If some players also feel like you're below them, or atleast their equal, they will tend to use characters outside of the 4 most used ones. I'm the opposite and never played any ither VS games seriously outside of MvC2, but it's a very fast paced games and lots of things to explore. When I figured out, I can actually win by not using top tiers, it made the game more fun.

[@gm9984]

@Omegaredish I look forward to finding a good team, but def gonna experiment. I usually just go with nostalgia as my choices 😆

[@Omegaredish]

@@gm9984 awesome! I have a previously uploaded video, which is a little less structured, but I have some advice there you might wanna consider. Enjoy!

[@flexxwilliamz514]

YES

[@gm9984]

@@flexxwilliamz514 so I am wrong? I'm hoping so. But like Omega said, it's not the coin-op, arcade days. It's free and online at home, so lots more experimenting and just overall, fun had
