Runnin' Sets Ep. 35: MIKE ROSS vs FANATIQ - THE RUNBACK Pt. 1

[@FallBackSquadUp]

Almost a decade since this, damn I miss the good ol days Love this set, wish they had filmed more

[@miguelbahena8541]

this is my favorite Fanatiq combo video

[@nnannakalu9423]

"I actually had to warm up to beat you, Mike. And that means a lot..." LMFAO...MAXIMUM trolling achieved! Who would have guessed Fanatiq was this hilarious?!

[@NinjaVampireCyborg]

2012 UMC3 was good times

[@Mad_Marvel]

I miss it more than anything.

[@MarioBro15]

Can anyone link me the video when Mike beat Fanatiq on cross counter live. Can't seem to find it. Thanks"

[@ph1lza]

>Sees new Running Sets Video uploaded >Runs and grabs snacks + Drink >... >PROFIT!

[@chunkydribble6903]

"you right, you right" cross counter classic.

[@th0mez]

mike"born free, as free as the wind blows, as free as the graaass grows, as free as can be" ross

[@noremacsirref]

you just blew my mind with the charge on the shoulders, i play vergil and i couldn't figure out how i was gonna charge his boomerange sword thing and keep comboing, thank you

[@AcidGlow]

08:10 "Fanatiq shows mercy.."

[@rezidual]

I am still amazed at the fact that fanatiq is doing all these insane combos on a remote....an xbox one at that. He is.....not human.

[@AcidGlow]

14:50 "get the f*ck over here"

[@AlphaChopstick]

7:33 Look at Fanatiq's reaction to Mike saying "Beyonzo" LOL

[@TheGuru477]

Yes, I knew it was coming. Thanks guys

[@Azmodeus87]

Awesome matches. Much respect to Fanatiq for both being confident and a good sport and mentor. And of course Mike "Oh my god" Ross.

[@SMURFANDTURF535]

It does work, thats one of the most fun things about this game

[@EldonMoore]

Alright Mike. With those first two games, I really AM convinced.

[@UltimatePotato]

His upwards grapple always does 80k, even after a million damage combo. It's nuts man

[@Rascar]

How about another Combofiend vs Fanatiq Running Sets? That would be awesome.

[@sweetfacebreaker]

Nice to see Mike taking this seriously.

[@theheeze]

I love how Mike says "okay"

[@thrillavanilla]

Fanatiq was so pissed after that first match... holy shit. Mike Ross drank that tea and the look on fanatics face... holy shit lol

[@Raizen22]

Mike Ross with that Thor technology! Hulk was putting in that work against MSS and I have to say that I am impressed by his improvement at the game. Its really good.

[@ThatOneGuyBen]

Alright Mike! Keep up the effort. WE BELIEVE IN YOU!!!

[@juube360]

4:42 The most godlike top tier look ever.

[@fkai1]

That meteor is invincible through out, pretty much

[@MrImAPencil]

theres counters like?? I didnt really get what fanatiq said. Who is the spencer counter he was talking about?

[@Awaruko]

What's the song playing at the beginning?

[@Quasarcool]

LOL What Stream were you watching?

[@hujklnm23]

that is very sick spencer...

[@_Snowflame]

Trash talk is part of the scene. If you drop some names and sling some mud you generate so much hype. It's unreal.

[@wideawakeanimal1]

Everytime these videos show up in my sub box I giggle like a little kid lol

[@Peetizzle]

@12:11 am I hearing this right? What's happening back there?

[@C3lticlord]

What did Fanatiq call Mike at the end ?

[@stevend24]

Pretty sure you can find it on Amazon. Or go to his twitch stream and try to win it as a prize.

[@QuickQuips]

Please do a Fanatiq and Combofiend video. I'd love to see the master of Spencers trash talk Fanatiqs, especially since I remember Fiend saying "I'm the only one who uses Spencer" in a previous running sets.

[@overlordss]

Im so glad that a character with my name absolutly bodys everyone!!! Long live spencer!

[@Jaxxdude]

9:25 Can someone explain to me why & how Morrigan can counter and body Spencer?

[@6000pounds]

Hey Mike. You know hulk has this nifty diagonal move called gamme charge he can use to cancel out of standing strong to make it safe. You should give it a shot.

[@dominicanosoy3529]

LMFAO mike wanted to say "FUCK U CALLED ME" so badly lol

[@vichetisicky]

YAYS. This series and Jamal's tea is back;D

[@capnbard]

@ 4:40 "This is obviously your first time playing Spencer..." *stares at camera* hahahhahahh

[@VulcanP90]

I did. Where you been?

[@z0opreme]

its too quiet in the background when fanatiq plays

[@ResalePrimeDirectives]

Exactly. Mike Ross does worlds better at slower paced fighting games like SF4/SFxT with bigger, slower characters. Marvel's built for a certain type of player mindset and playing one on one fighting games exclusively makes the transition mentally challenging for a lot of players. It's why even legendary Japanese players like Diago get bodied at Marvel 3 despite tons of practice. They're still going into the game with that "SF4" mindset.

[@Spongink]

Does Fanatiq use D-pad or the joystick?

[@iMoshToBreakdowns]

Read the description. "(Apologies for the audio guys, recording error left us with no game audio)"

[@Yukari_MAiG]

Spencer combo potential is just too insane.

[@Richu135]

so i might want to start playing this game again....now i want to try spencer for the 1st time

[@TheDarkHaired1]

Thanks Fanatiq for showing that pad players do work too.

[@Surrey_01]

Also, I want to hear the game noises!

[@Conicalnewt]

did anyone notice that fanatiq blocked low at 10:11 when Hulk s.H is an overhead?

[@Rainmanking]

havent seen Gootecks. is he on vaca or something

[@mmmmmech]

Fanatiq is on point right now... No dropped combos and no mis steps... I was so rooting for Mike but man...

[@netromax8685]

spencer is awesone

[@ohhgeez865]

good ole days

[@KarmaCow]

Man watching this without game audio is weird. I hope it's only this video that was messed up but probably not. Though it was funny to hear Knives...I mean Mike mashing at the end there.

[@Reyban26]

Spencer and his damn touch of death combos lol.

[@blazinboi031]

Damn conserving that wall bounce is sooo damaging, i miss that storm though that was his trademark in my opinion

[@Rainmanking]

:( that really sucks. he was awesome and him and Mike together was great

[@Mysterious0Bob]

You, sir, have made my fucking day.

[@FiggyCal]

He answered that question on one of his youtube videos.

[@Panthro-lo2lh]

its so funny. that money match fanatiq just blew rayray up. i loved it

[@MrShirouzen]

mike has gotten alot better.

[@SaintsBrees09]

when is evo?

[@dectilon]

Maybe I'm completely off, but it seems like Mike lacks in tech basically. For example, when he's baiting with Hulk assist he could probably follow up (if it hits) with up-charge with Thor and go into mighty tornado.

[@AzossAwwYea]

wheres steve?

[@ArceionX]

turn the sound up next time...

[@SMURFANDTURF535]

We all know that it was actually a three-way match, with Jamal's tea being the victor.

[@IceyStealthN3rd]

Cool news for pad players characters that have single button charge moves like zero and vergil. If you map a button as L+M+H and hit it and hold it at the same time you press any other normal attack button then press down(think wave dashing), the game will make you dash, but you will be holding a charge, however the cool part is that you still have access to all three normal attacks. This trick only works on PS3 dual shock pads, it would not work on Arcade stick(Hori or TE) or 360 pad.

[@SeratiTheDood]

4:43 Greatest troll face EVER!!!

[@Glickstick]

That video was probably from mvc3. In umvc3 spencer got buffed hard and now everybody has him on their team. Combofiend probably doesn't even think he has the best one anymore.

[@AFUFreeman720]

Fanatiq has been playing since long before pads were generally accepted, bro.

[@cmass5194]

ah, the good old days.

[@beans12354]

damn fanatiq's spencer is so good. i know spencer is high tier but this spencer is on a completely different level.

[@FiggyCal]

Didn't he win wednesday night fights last season?

[@Polydere]

4:17 Mike's "I just bodied you" face

[@THEKINGBETWEEN]

what game is mike known for playing becuase ive seen him get owned on SFXT,SSF4AE AND UMVC3

[@Conicalnewt]

oh, it was prolly an error in the guide then. thanks for clearin that up :)

[@TheTreWay83]

You mustve been caught in that combo a time or two

[@S3N_Gaming]

now i wanna see the battles of the spencers. Fanatiq vs Combofiend. Fanatiqs spencer is a fucking beast.

[@TechniqueSan]

Fanatiq is pretty cool to watch, and he's a chill guy.

[@elzilcho222]

"he actually has to work" -Fanatic

[@KenDonMusicYT]

he quit the shows a couple months back during the live show

[@striderzer0]

I respect that Mike "Knives" Ross

[@bigjoeglen]

good show guys

[@Cbomgomg]

Shoutouts to Fanatiqs Spencer, DAMN!

[@TheTaekwondosam]

I think a new age of Spencer may be coming...

[@TechCloud15]

The tea is back, and we still don't know what's in it lol

[@PuzzL_]

Mike sounds like he's about to cry in the last few matches

[@XquizitMonk]

Keep the vids coming

[@nicksavino1594]

Mike Ross turned up the Godlike-ness

[@zharmonyz79]

Am loving that outfit Thor has!

[@fl1pk1d23]

Speaking of thinking before you speak, in response to @mcdermott1989 , not all people who play on stick are obsessive. That's a misconception. Personally, i play on stick because it feels more comfortable. People use what they feel comfortable with.

[@Sparkman91]

Wait since when did FANATIQ play other characters!? O_O

[@Gnorconpro]

>Sees new CrossCounter video >Marvel >Quickly comments disapprovingly, dislikes >Close browser

[@Mrrrch1nkys]

who did fanatic say at 16:16? LOL

[@KenDonMusicYT]

@Rainmanking yeah, hopefully he comes back soon in some capacity

[@wideawakeanimal1]

Listen to 12:10 - 12:21 with your eyes closed....what does it sound like?

[@SMURFANDTURF535]

Why does Fanatiq call storm Beyonzo anyway?
