5 Hidden Mechanics that help BREAK MvC2!!

Today we're talking Marvel vs Capcom 2!! I've got 5 hidden mechanics to explain to you, glitches, combos, DHC tricks, and alpha counters! These will hopefully be really helpful to you if you're just trying to learn the game. If you want to play in the JMCup make sure to join our Twitch or Patreon!

    Another very strong hidden mechanic is that if you find yourself in a losing situation, you can hit Alt+F4 on fightcade and perform a strategic retreat. I hear it works on other fgs as well, very strong

    I'd pay good money to see a video of just cursed combos/cursed synergy. Honestly, any kind of video that contains non-surface level knowledge that only character specialists/veteran players would know would be great. Things like Iceman not taking chip from energy attacks or other non-obvious character traits, character or team-specific setups, etc. Stuff like that would really help new players find a team/gameplan that fits them.

    ... The switch glitch feels more glitchy than the DHC glitch. auto pressing a held button just is more wack than (we forgot you can combo after DHC, so even whiffing the DHC and getting a combo anyway allows you to basically do 2 combos off one hit with no interaction... because we wanted the second super to not be scaled to hell. Like, it's a logical thing to happen once you know the rules that make up it.

    On alpha counters: You didn't elaborate properly on Cable-b and his alpha counter to AHVB. I've had so many matches I was about to lose where I used this to punish an assist call, an otherwise safe move from the point character, or both. This can win otherwise hopeless matches by killing one or more characters out of nowhere. You can also guard push, and cancel that with an alpha counter. This is very dangerous, especially with Cable B in the back. Guard pushing some close attack making their next one as well as Cable's psimitar miss lets you cancel that with an Air Hyper Viper Beam. Like they say in Seattle, Everyone gets shot.

I’ve never been interested in playing as him but I heard a few months back that he’s actually a fairly decent character in Marvel 2 and even inspired the maker of hitbox to make that controller. I’m kinda curious as to why he’s a high tier competitive character.

    When you say “1 frame normal” do you mean in old terminology or new? Because in 3rd strike when someone says “chun-li has a 2 frame jab” they mean it has 2 frames of start up and then hits on the 3rd. Which in modern terminology we’d call a “3 frame jab”. Is Magneto’s c.LK 1 frame start up and then hits on the second (2 frame normal in modern terms) or does it actually hit on the next frame after you press the button?

    I got inspired recently to download fightcade and give mvc2 a shot, as a matter of fact i just got done playing Umvc3 with a friend over at my place today. I have quite some legacy "modern" day fighting experience but my BIG problem with mvc2 is that it feels so strange to move around, and the lack of a default "magic series" makes me not really understand a characters combo utility. It is all just, few hits into super, where are Umvc3 is so many more hits. My question then is: what is the best way to understand a characters combos and/or movement ? Tibazz

    Like anything that's complex, it takes time. MvC2 is such a varied game that some people don't even use these tips, like alpha counter or dhc glitch. At top level it'll be brutal yes, but it takes time to get there. I'd say just try to have fun with the game at your own pace and learn what you need to learn when you need it. Like if you're struggling with damage then learn big combos or if you keep getting chipped learn to alpha counter. I play a low mid tier team in this game and I didn't even know about half the things in this video and I still have fun just learning and enjoying the game. Just play it at your own pace and have fun, if it's still not a game for you then it's okay, but don't be intimidated by depth, you'll get there if you play long enough. Definitely recommend some Sajam content if you're interested in learning about fg philosophy.
