Why MvC2 players were wrong about Silver Samurai

[@keithsimpson2685]

Shows how crazy marvel is when someone with crouch cancel normals, no fly air combo, a good super, instant overhead etc. is still low/mid tier.

[@Guitar-Dog]

What's a crouch cancel normal? Something that forces stand? I play Tekken so crouch cancel is canceling the while rising state

[@Butterfree_hater]

@@Guitar-Dog I believe it's when you can cancel a move with a crouch, which gets rid of basically all of the end lag

[@BlueEyedBandit98]

@@Guitar-Dog closest thing I can think of from tekken would be canceling dragonovs forward + 3 step kick into a roll dash with the up direction to get wall carry combos

[@srsgoblin]

I think my favorite thing about MVC2 is it has a gajillion infinites and they don't even break the game. Like, there aren't even banned characters like you might expect, because like a third of the cast has them so it's just not worth it. I absolutely love it. More bonkers fighters like this please.

[@seilaoquemvc2]

MvC2 has probably the best damage scaling system ever implemented. basically nothing does pretty much any damage at all after some hits, and undizzy makes it so pretty much no one can infinite you until you die. at the end of the day, if anyone gets you with an infinitie, they need to go close to undizzy and combo into 2 supers to get a kill making real TODs from 100% life quite unlikely, and that's what makes the infinites and stuff like it to not break the game. get that and add the whole "you really need to hit you opponent in the proper situation to be able to TOD him" and you get a game with very, very low amount of real TODs even at the highest level.

[@srsgoblin]

@@seilaoquemvc2 true. It's one of those games where if someone actually pulls off the infinite and doesn't drop it on you, you just kind of go "aww, GG" because it's pretty highly skilled to pull them off.

Samurai's instant overhead paired with assists puts in some real work. Dang. Also, can we talk about how amazing Capcom's sprites were in the 90's? They could have just given Samurai a white uniform and called it a day but instead they made this cool shimmer. It's like the guy's wearing a suit made of platinum. One of my favorite things about this MvC2 resurgence (and thanks again to the heroes like Justin Wong and jmcrofts for making it happen) is that all these decades-old sprites are getting a chance to shine again.

[@KumaGorath]

unfortunately it is the glitch that makes him an A/B due to his ability to erase assists for you. he plays like a slower version of his msh self which is still faster than the msh version of him but essentially weaker. he's also still super stubby and needs to attack with his face which didnt work at the high level because people know how to quickly bust super armor at that level.

[@hachi666roku]

Juggernaut Bitch Loves dem hoes, especially Tronbon and Bulleta- If Tronbon ever Hits you will all of the Radar Array dish, That by itself does 25% health. There is a juggle where you cross over with Tronbon, do the radar dish, while you call powered glitch Juggernaut, some of the dish hits connect, Juggs hits, and remaining hit from Trombon comes out to about 40% health lost with some room for recovery. No super Part two with Bulleta is more complicated cause you need to drop her Missle she jumps up first to fire down on your opponent- usually after a trip or a bad roll, When she lands, summon Juggs instead of following the missle in. If the player tries to hit Bulleta, Juggs will send the player into the missle and bulleta can do her flame thrower and cancel into her big guns. It makes for 60% health gone for a simple mistake anyone can do

SIlver Samurai's super is one of the best in the game even if you include the top tiers. the only super that the god tiers have that's really better than SS's is Cable's AHVB. Neither Hailstorm or HSF are clearly better. Also, the ice powerup is crazy, is in another league when compared do Colossus.... it has a much faster startup, the amount of reduced damage is kinda crazy, and it can be refreshed before it ends. I'd say you probably should use the Ice Powerup at almost every fight with SilSam

[@bzcharkl]

Basically all of this stuff was known about back in the day, and a few more things that you didn't mention, but I don't think anyone was "wrong" about Silver Samurai. The problem is, he does poorly against every top tier in the game, which may not be as much of a factor in ratio tournaments, but when it was two players who had free choice of the whole roster and were trying to win he really does struggle a lot. You can argue about whether he was underrated when people called him "low tier", but he's never going to rise beyond lower mid without some sort of qualifying conditions like ratios. I tried really hard to make him do work back in the arcades, and while I did occasionally find moderate success, current me realizes that there's no (objective) reason to pick him when you could just pick Cable or Sentinel instead.

[@danielnam9026]

Back when I played this game over 2 decades ago, a bunch of guys tried to make him work. He's fun to play but in terms of viability he lacks maneuverability some of the top tier chars possess. 100% agree with you there, no one would actually pick him over your regular tier chars.

[@EchoCedric561]

Im no good player a mvc2 but i think the idea for using the "Element sword- Fire/Lightning/Ice" is to play the unpredictable game. The different supers could also technically be used for mix up options but they could also do the other supers for comboing with assists. Think of it this way Lightning- Obviously most versatile but good for countering assists Fire- Can be used with anti-air assists like blackheart or wolverine Ice- Stun/capture type can work but can also be used as a free chip/ pressure for your opponent to have to go airborne which could lead into anti airs or assists Thats what i believe the elements are for. Its meant for Silver Sam to be extremely versatile for different teams

[@ThrashMetalWolf666]

​@@CCuppy29 Hayato is complicated. His normals, and specials have strong range, and can easily be comboed into. However his sword slashes are rather laggy so his rushdown is unsafe outside of his light kicks. His expansion/balance assist is alright, and his anti air is not very good. Hayato's plasma field gives him unlimited super meter for 10 seconds which can be used to setup his level 3 for only one bar to get good damage. Hayato excels on the ground but lacks any options when fighting in the air, which obviously is a bad thing when the three gods can fight in the air. If anyone wants to play Hayato I recommend to learn the range of his normals, and plasma combos since they are vital to his gameplan. His sword slashes are unsafe but you can use his light kicks to recover faster if it's blocked. Shiden should be used only to hit confirm into his supers rather than to pressure since it's very unsafe. If you play Hayato on point I would recommend Silver Samurai's ground assist as it works well with Hayato's combos, and pressure. Hayato's Hyper Flash Sword super, and level 3 can also be DHC into Raimeiken for great damage as well. Thano's bubble assist, and Sabretooth projectile assist also works for setting up combos.
